Internet connectivity - Gambling wins/losses

[bitzizzix]

Never have I encountered such eventualities in my experience as a gambler. Although most of the times when I gamble using my data connection from my carrier, and when it basically isn't working fast as I intended it to be, I always get cancelled bet, which I think is better than getting a loss to no fault of your own. And as far as I know modern gambling sites already imposed some codes in their system that prevents such from happening, so you'll find that losing or winning due to poor internet connectivity a rare sight these days.

I think it depends more on what game you play and how you connect to the Internet. If you have a fiber optic connection it's rare to lose your connection, but if you play via mobile internet, especially when there's only one base station nearby and the weather is bad it's easy to lose your connection and not have time to make your move when playing poker, for example.

The fiber-optic connection will only face a problem when there is trouble in their server to make the internet connection can not deliver to the customer. That is like a delay transmitted a connection to their customer and lost connection in the network. It can trouble us if we experience that, so if we want to play gambling or browsing on the website, we need to check the connection first before doing something.

Yes, you should check the internet network before gambling or any other activity that will make you comfortable when betting.
actually the internet connection when betting or gambling doesn't really affect it, it just makes it uncomfortable and doesn't concentrate when betting because we need concentration when betting.
and a bad connection will distort concentration and can lead to emotions.

Human nature is built so that most people try to justify their mistakes and failures by blaming them on someone else. Today it is the casino, tomorrow the stock exchange, and the day after tomorrow the Internet provider. In my opinion self-deception is a very serious problem because if a person accepts his mistakes and analyzes them then over time he will stop making them.

I didn't have such experience, but, honestly, I don't think that an Internet connection in any way influences the outcome. The connection error is on your side, while the RNG algorithm, which determines the result of your spin or anything else is a built-in software. The connection can only affect how quickly you see the result, might cause some delays, etc., but not the result itself.

depend on what Game mate, It has been said many times above that in Crash Game if you have not indicated a Auto stop means you will surely Lose that round once the game started and you have Put the Bet and suddenly the connection had lost.

Though In many games such as card games, Slot or even Dice and Roulette Yeah this won't effect the outcome because the algo runs towards the result.

Sure thing, I agree, in cases where poor Internet connection interferes with the ability to bet - it might have an effect, but it's obvious in such case, that the problem is with the connection and the only possible outcome would be a loss, and there'd be no reason to suspect that the website is rigged. But the OP checked provably fair, so he most likely was talking about games like dice.

I only use a mobile internet connection to my laptop, but I always check the connection by pinging to some website to check how the connection is. But so far, I do not have trouble and the connection run smooth. Playing gambling does not need a high-speed internet connection, but some gambling games that need an image will need a good internet connection. I feel annoyed if I see a lack of time to opening the website or it takes seconds to load a full page. But so far, I can hande it.

Faster the roll, faster will be the outcome. When there is delay in the network the dice keeps rolling and most of the time the roll ends in a loss. This might not be of the internet delay, but our mind will be having the thought of losing it due to connectivity. If we check the roll it'll be provably fair. As users stated for some games played through streaming there is possible chance of experiencing loss through bad connectivity.

This is interesting, people are complaining about being disconnected during the games and losing or suffering from a bad connection, but taking into account that the house has the edge over you then having a slow connection that slows down your game will in fact play on the favour of the player as this will reduce the number of bets that he can make in a minute and reduce in this way the money that he losses against the casino.

Not sure if that will favor you if you are in the wait and expecting that your bet might win, but suddenly due to connectivity problem it turned out
that you lose your bet.
Very annoying and it adds up aggressions to keep pushing and trying to find some luck, might lessen the numbers of your bet and HE might be more
lesser but the fact that you are risking most of your bankroll because of frustrations.

The outcome will still the same in the long run, you'll lose eventually if you unable to cool yourself down.

I can definitely understand why some people will find that annoying, as it can be very upsetting to have your computer or other device to not work according to your wishes, however mathematics do not lie, the casino has an edge over you, that is an indisputable fact, and when the connection gets very slow to the point that it affects your game even if it is annoying this is going to save you money over the long run as you make less bets during that period of time

Got a nice point, each time a person experienced defeats instead of accepting, they'll try to find something to blame,
pointing fingers and let every emotions to released on it.


It's better to figure it out and allow experienced to learned from it, you'll be able to cope up much easier if you move forward and forget about it.

Most of those experienced gamblers see it that way and treat it just another unlucky day.
there's always another tomorrow to try winning don't overspend your regrets it will happened
again, just let it out and try to lessen it for much enjoyable gambling activities.

I agree that playing online gambling does not require an internet connection that is too fast, but requires a stable internet connection.
My experience using a mobile internet connection has a few problems, because the mobile internet has a shortage of instability,
sometimes it is affected by  the weather and the number of users in the area. Sometimes it takes a few seconds for a full page to load,
and if that happens a little bit annoys me. Therefore I prefer to use cable internet over fiber optic, which has proven to be more stable.

Arent fiber optics still considered to be put up in cables? They are just the same bro yet ive been using wired or cabled connection which is more preferable if you dont like any interference
when it comes into your gameplay even though this thing matter most with the ISP provider if there are really no connection issues like being too slow or some disconnect problems
which do really sucks big time if you do tend to play gambling or even with those basic activities that you do online.No one would be impressed with that situation.

While in theory your connection dropping should not affect at all the results of the gambling game that you are playing at the time we must also understand that just because that should not be the case it doesn't mean that it doesn't happen, programmers make mistakes all the time and there are bugs in the code they create so even if it doesn't seem very likely this is the case you can find circumstances in which your connection dropping could actually affect the results of the game.

I have had this happen to me a few different times and a couple different ways.

One time i was playing a betsoft slot Great 88 and i hit the bonus that gives you three wheel spins well my computer died right when the boxes reveled what type of bonus it would be, when i got it all back up and running i had a $5000+ win off a $1.25 bet

The other times is more complicated but if you private message me I would like to share experiences with one another

Sometimes, I've got a problem with my internet connection, and I am tried to complain to the provider but they can not do anything except check the connection. That makes me annoyed if I lack the internet connection because no matter if that is because mobile internet connection or a fiber optic internet connection, we will sometimes face a loss in the connection. But if I have that problem, I will close the tab in the browser and shut down my computer or close my mobile phone because I do not want to feel bad.

Not only limited to gambling activity but other things that we do online that do need internet connection and once you do experience those bad times then it do really pisses us because we dont like to get disturbed
on what are the things we've been dealing on.Overall it isnt the connection that can really affect Gambling wins or losses because those bets would be made out or already been casted before the connection
cuts off and once it had been bet on then theres nothing you can do but others do really give out the blame to the connection but if we do really look up closely on that reason
then its not really correlated at all.

When I complain about the internet stability to the provider, the first thing they ask is if I'm using wireless network connection or cable. That is because in most times internet is unstable due to the wireless network, but once you connect a cable to your laptop or desktop computer the internet stabilizes again. Since then, I avoid wireless maximum as possible.
I suggest you doing this test to check if your internet stabilizes too. Try to find a cable and once the internet starts failing, connect it. Then you don't need to quit your activities because a bad connection issue.

Have you guys experienced any loss/win out of the issue with internet connectivity. I've mentioned about wins/losses, but mostly people get affected negatively when there is connectivity issues. I personally believe that the internet connection is also a reason with our gambling wins. Here it is about casino games and not sports betting.

Most of the time I gamble using the mobile device. The connectivity speed varies between locations and I've encountered with the rolls taking more time as well as the the rollers moving within the bar with sudden visibility. When I check the provably fair functioning, it does right. But, my mind has a thinking our loss is due to the internet connection.

Does any of you have similar experience or thinking.

Yes internet connectivity varies from places to places. In our area, I knew someone who is addicted to an online gambling. If I will be rating the the speed of the internet in our area from 1 to 10 (10 is the highest), I say I will be giving you 4. Yes, very poor connection but I've never heard her blame internet connection so I think it does not affect her winnings and losses. I am not sure on any other games since she only play one kind of game every time she is bored. By the way, she plays through her mobile phone. I've never seen her used her laptop on playing. Aside from her any other gamer on our area does not want online game.

Internet connectivity plays important thing when it comes to the animation. Based on the animation will be the respond speed of the website. When we check with the fair functioning it'll be perfect, but the delay over the animated outcome gives a feel of losing through the lack of internet connectivity.

You did not mention the speed a 1 to 2 Mbps is still good as long as there is no lag, mobile phone on my experience is still good at 1 MBPS provided she is not sharing it with anyone, and I guess she is the only one using it. and you also mentioned that he is only playing one game again you did not mention the name game, there are games that require a certain speed but the one she is playing maybe does not have a required speed.

In the early days of online gambling this is a common occurrence in countries with poor internet technology, and of course when the gambling site is poorly programmed. But so far these past few years really helped improve the technology and adjacent to it of course is the clockwork behind these gambling sites, so there's little to no chance that you'll see this problem ever again.

[Alucard1]

Internet connection wont really be an enough reason for you to blame out that you had lost specially casinos games.When it comes on gambling using up my mobile and using data
then i dont have any problems since i dont really play on places which i do know that there's would be no decent connection or simply in rural places but in most cases all of the
places are really having some good signal so i dont really much in worry no matter when and where i do plan to play in my mobile.To think that once you drop your signal or
connection then those rolls wont continue and its just senseless if you do give out some blame.

There are really places that the internet connection from the start is good and then suddenly while playing you will feel that the internet connection is getting worst, just like in our country as our country has still a problem with internet connection and a lot of citizens are making rants about it but actually it has nothing to do with the lost because once you have lost your internet and you have bet already then the output or result will be the same even you have still the internet connection, so why would anyone blame internet connection for their lost. You gamble so take the risk from it.

Internet connection has nothing to do with the result of your bet imo especially if you are talking about casino games because once you click the bet button, the system record and process it although you lost your connection. Internet connection can be a problem if you are playing live betting on sports because you may not click the button on the right time if your connection is too slow or lost. If you are thinking that your bet lost is because of your internet connection while in fact the provably fair system shows exactly the right thing then it is just your point of view that you try to find something to blame of your lost.
