Slot games are a waste of time and money (most of the time)

[nullama]

Yeah, I personally feel that slot games are a complete waste of time and money most of the time, I got this bonus from btcgosu's partnership with BetFury which awarded me a 77 free spins.

Bonus is still available for anyone to claim on https://www.btcgosu.com/blog/news/unleash-the-black-friday-magic-get-77-free-spins-with-code-gosu77-at-betfury/

I played slot game with the free spin and ended up with a total win of $16, but also hammered with a wager requirement of about $750 before I did be able to withdraw.

I continued playing slot with the $16, and soon, I had up to $55 in total amount won, I was really happy and hopeful that before I did lose all $55, I would have won much to enable me complete the wager requirement and possibly walk out in profit.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

The truth is that gambling companies will always get the money the gamblers put it, even including all the free bonuses they add.

They simply make these applications very addictive and fun to play, so that gamblers keep coming back for more. That's what the casinos want of course, because the longer you stay, the more money you gamble, and the more certain it is that the casino will keep your money.

Mistake #1 taking a deposit bonus. Mistake #2 thinking you would actually clear said deposit bonus. Most casinos offer these bonuses in order to get signups and to let people play a little while on a 1st depo or reload bonus without having to spend the extra money. You get a lot of play from a small deposit and can try their games out. Every once in awhile someone will clear the bonus and cashout, but even then lots of casinos limit the max win to $100.

Basically only accpet a bonus if you have the money to lose cause there's very low odds you'll complete the bonus terms.

[len01]

am I the only one who feels that the thread title is different from the topic content?
I mean the title makes it appear that slot games are just a waste of time and money but the real discussion is just about bonuses and the requirements to be able to claim these bonuses.

I will answer the title first, all gambling games, not just slots, but all games will definitely waste time if we gamble to make a profit, but it will be fun and entertaining if we gamble just to try our luck with the minimum amount you have and can afford to lose.
and it is natural that some people think that slot games will only waste their time because they lose, but if they win they will definitely say that slot games provide great luck.

and regarding these bonuses or requirements, I would not be surprised if you give up, even the oldest gamblers here will probably ignore bonuses with high requirements because it will be impossible for us to achieve these requirements because the casino cannot possibly want to go bankrupt so if we want to claim the bonus we also have to provide contributions such as betting 35x the deposit amount while the house edge will always win if you stay too long in gambling.
so in conclusion, dont take a bonus with conditions that are too high and check the rules before taking the bonus.

Yeah, I think that's their strategy to keep their clients to play more even if they consistently losing their money. The graphic, huge winning prizes and the way on how to play slots is their strategy to capture gambler's interest. I agree that this is a waste of money because there's no guarantee of winning in slot machine, maybe there's a winning but a little chance and a small amount only, you can also get a free spin which convince you to play again.

But unfortunately, I ended up losing the entire $55 dollar while I still had about $582 dollar in wager requirement, I am not confident enough to deposit and continue chasing, so I'm giving up.

One of the reason why I am not attracted to free spins offered by casinos. Because there's a wagering requirement (which is understandable) that is hard to achieve if you're just going to rely solely to the profit you gained from these free spins.

I've never been lucky with slot games, never, and I am not pleased about it to be honest.
What about you?

I'm not a fan of slots but somehow I had experience of winning from Rise of Olympus using my small deposit money. But because it's a luck based games and having a decent bankroll is necessary (if you want to play longer and hoping to hit a high multiplier), I rarely play since I prefer to gamble live Baccarat where you can follow a patterns to somehow maximize the chance to win the bet, (although it's not guaranteed of course).

The casino will definitely provide very attractive offers that gamblers can see as they browse each page of the casino and make them curious. It is true that it has made many gamblers tempted to try their luck by choosing various slot games that they want, including participating in these dancing promotions. If we can limit our money for playing slots, especially always using small bets, it could provide entertainment even though we won't get a big chance of getting a big win. So it's best when playing slots, we have to limit the money and time we use so that we avoid big losses.

What about you?

I'm sure you really understand that this game is purely luck based. so, your experience is our experience. All of us who like slot games, have a lot of experience with the many types of games available, either spending hours on end, or spending the funds we have by making deposits again and again and that's the ups and downs of slot type games.
But, it cannot be denied, if you are in lucky mode, good hit after hit comes towards you and maybe you can reach the Maxwin jackpot and at this point, we will get something fun in the game session.

Referring to what you said, specifically the last point you said. which gambler would be happy, if he never got a win. especially on targeted games, to claim bonuses. I think you understand very well that this is part of the risk. So the point is up to you, whether you are interested in getting bonuses or just playing with the idea of ​​filling your free time that you can spend without ending up in any trouble. Personally, I'm not too serious even though I like slot games. I mean, there is a quota that I budget for playing this game. the rest, I bet more on football.

What about you?

Because getting free spins and then trying your best to withdraw the winnings but ending up back at the beginning is something I often experience. Therefore by giving away free spins personally consider it as entertainment and nothing more than that. Maybe just trying a few games, the casinos that give free spins bonuses are trying to entice you to return to the casino with money from your personal pocket. Is it worth it? depending on whether the wagering requirements reach a certain amount I will immediately see that you are directed to make a deposit. Slot games depend on luck and I don't have a big target when playing them.

Is this considered a waste of time and money? Of course not as long as you don't spend a penny and only aim to enjoy the free spins provided by the casino. Returning to the initial statement when you agreed to receive  free spins means you agreed on 2 things between coming out with a win or not at all.

Well man, this year I was lucky with the slots, I had a few positive sessions and I also got free spins from a previous signing campaign that were quite profitable, yes, they had no wagering requirements and if they gave me $25 in free spins and I won $100 with them I was able to withdraw them instantly.

But in general you have to be very careful because the slots are quite addictive and you can make a lot of money with them. Besides, they are usually the most profitable game for casinos.

Haha yeah, free spins are cool though in most cases, you end up winning nothing but sometimes like in your case, you can get lucky. I play at Bitsler and they give free spins and chests often and I'm yet to win anything significant lol.

Coming back to the topic of whether slots are a waste of money, No I don't think so, because slots are more fun in general. I don't know how people find any thrill or fun rolling the dice or dropping plinko balls all day. But when you are playing slots like Wanted, Warrior Graveyard you are always at the edge of the seat when those vs vs vs might drop .

Most of the free spin has a capped on max win while your reward is still locked with ridiculous wagering requirements so can’t benefit on it easily even if you huge amount on that free spin without risking your own bankroll to wager for it. You are lucky if you can use the free spin profit to wager but most of the casino lock it and allow only deposit money to wager for it.

Try playing games like Blackjack that reduce house edge to minimal level by using basic strategy. It’s correct approach on how to appreciate slot games through enjoying the game play but the RTP itself is really sucks considering the result is pure random

[SirLancelot]

Slots are high variance in simple words. I mean in dice you would never win 1000x unless you select that multiplier while in slots you can max win suddenly out of nowhere. But, to get that max win you may have to spin a million times and in dice you can slowly build up profits.

Slots are for those looking to win big while originals are for those who are trying to wager or seek smaller profits. If I have deposited $10k, I am never going to touch slots with the exception of bonus buys because those are cool.

You can win big in slot games with big multipliers, but that obviously requires luck because slot games are luck based. Playing dice gambling requires luck, so if you are not careful in managing your expenses, you can spend a lot of money. However, many people love slot games and do not think that slot games are boring or a waste of time because they want to get big multipliers and will keep trying to get them. Don't deposit too much money if you are not ready for the risk, especially in slot games, which can really use up all your money without you realizing it. Always limit the amount of money and time you spend gambling or you will experience problems such as gambling addiction if you start gambling too often.

Yeah, I mean, if you gamble a small amount of money, or at least an amount of money that won't hurt you financially, then some people might enjoy that, as it is some extra fun, and maybe a tiny portion of them actually get lucky and win big.

But when gamblers put all their money into the casino, well, that's a different story.

Yes, we get it. Slot casino games are fun and thrilling, but what the OP says is about the minimum amount required of you before you can withdraw the money. The requirement is too big, and if you only rely on the money you've gained from the free spin, then it's definitely a waste of time as you don't have a guarantee to always win in every spin. Based on the required amount, it will take some time for the OP to reach it before he can withdraw the small amount he has earned, creating the temptation to deposit more money to achieve the required amount, which is a bit fishy. Why would a casino slot game have a super high withdrawal requirement? It could be a scheme by a scammer or untrusted casino sites.

Anyway, it's much better to read and see first if there is a withdrawal requirement before playing on a casino platform to avoid inconveniency and, of course, wasting time. Also,  don't rely on the free spins; they're just bait for you to deposit more money.

Of course, there are many kinds of casinos that always offer promotional promotions through advertising to attract the interest of gamblers to use the casino that is being promoted.
As smart users, we have to be smart in choosing a casino that doesn't just advertise tempting promotions. We have to be smart in thinking about whether gambling is not will give big wins unless we are really lucky, both physical casinos and online casinos in my opinion are the same, they only want to get big profits from gamblers who are able to carry out gambling activities, the casinos don't really force users to gamble but they just trying to tempt users, but if we can't afford to gamble then there's no need to force it, but if you want to try it's better to deposit a small amount of money and the most important thing is that you are willing to lose the money and don't try to return the loss.

What about you?

If the goal of a gambler is to obtain profits with slot machines then there is no doubt they are wasting their time, and this is because slot machines have some of the worst odds you can find at any of the games offered by casinos, however if your aim is to get some fun with them then they are not so bad as you could hit a big multiplier from time to time and hit higher profits with a single spin than many other games in a whole session, so when I think about it I can see why many gamblers are attracted to slots.

You are lucky if you can use the free spin profit to wager but most of the casino lock it and allow only deposit money to wager for it.

Yes, and the maximum win limit can never be large amount because in this free spin it is also the same as the lowest bet.
It just that most people still really think that free spins can give them lots of benefits which makes them try to get them and even have lots of accounts on various gambling sites.
There are always withdrawal requirements for prizes in bonus rounds and of course this is difficulty for gambler because the amount won is definitely much smaller than the amount of bet that has become requirement to be able to withdraw it.
Casinos will always lock in any winnings on free spins bonuses until the wagering requirements are met and not many gamblers think this far when they go after them.

Coming back to the topic of whether slots are a waste of money, No I don't think so, because slots are more fun in general.

I don't really understand the game of blackjack and have only tried playing this game few times.
But can't the blackjack game be won when the gambler uses good skills and many gamblers state that this game is much better than slots.
It just that for me personally, skill games are games that really drain the mind because we will always think about how to play correctly to win.
Everyone probably prefers slots because they are easy to play and just wait for luck to come.

There are many things in the world of betting that lead to the title of your topic, OP.  Surely it's an consequences to your frustration at "not" winning.

Slots are one of the flagships of casino games, it is not the king of the game, but for many players it is.

Slots are mainly fun, by using a bet size appropriate to your bankroll you can have a long term, and that helps you wager, in reality when you achieve a high multiplier you are only recovering money, something normal, but it is what you have to... spin , spin, have fun and spin.

[TravelMug]

So it's best when playing slots, we have to limit the money and time we use so that we avoid big losses.

Of course, that's their marketing plan, so provide very attractive offers to gamblers so that they will have to play on that casino (with reputation), and then chase those wagering requirements that might not end good for us. Because we all know how bad slot games are, as the OP has seen it, and that's why he conclude that it is a complete waste of time and money on his part. But there are gamblers that really loves to play slot machine and even if they are in the losing end, they will still consider and go and chase that feeling. Luck plays a big part on slot games, not everyone is blessed with the same luck, and so as gambler we wanted to be that one that is going to win the bonus or the eventual big jackpots that this slot machines offers.

What about you?

I had also played slot games many time and end up in loses. I think that is how the game was programmed, you can't win the house and go like that. In every win, you might have about 10 loses. Most time which I played slot games, anytime I won, I think I would have lost multiple times. Tye house has high rate winning compared to our individual self that could be in the haste to make money as a gambler. We need to study how the slot game works and how it was programmed to work. Gambling is a big risk for us if we don't look for something better to play to increase our tendency of winning.
