Should I quit playing slots?

[hahay]

]Stop playing slots if you think you’re uncontrollable already and can’t manage your emotions, otherwise you will keep on losing but zero winnings. Slots is a game of chance and luck, you should know that before you decide to play. It may give you few chances to win at first but you will also experience series of losses after, that’s how slots are designed, actually all gambling games that are purely luck based.

Normally the fact of asking the question already indicates that the person should quit but the way the OP puts it does not seem to be the typical case. Rather he is an acquaintance of this section who is mathematically literate, albeit with some weird belief that some variant of martingale will work for him, and who has had an experience as we all have had, of a bad session that fucks you up.

It doesn't matter about the martingale calculation applied in slots gambling, because in the end you will only keep losing. Because after all, this slot game basically has a setting that will only benefit the house, the fact is that there are more people who get losses than wins. Indeed, some influential people make bets with winnings and or also make advertisements that show winnings. But anyway, the reality is that it's also just about their tricks to get more people betting on their platform.

So yes, the point is keep doing it if you can and are able to control anger and or disappointment about losing in gambling, but please stop when you are unable to control the sense of disappointment that you have experienced in slot gambling. Because anyway, as far as I know from the people around also that they make deposits more often than withdrawals.

In my opinion, you should make your own decision whether to quit playing slots because it depends on what your goals are. Losing is a natural outcome of a gambling session, so it can not be a driver for a decision. The only thing I would advise you is to learn to limit your deposit and end the gambling session after you have increased your bankroll by 20-30%. In this case you would lose much less, or even win if you exit in time.

I support you because seeking for the opinions of others for something that does not concern them is not always the best idea, you will only get bad advice when you ask because they will be giving you advice based on what they feel and it has nothing to do with what you feel. In this situation, you are the one losing therefore if you do not find success with slot games you have to stop playing them and try to play other games until you find a new game that you can win. There are many games you can play when gambling therefore your options should not be limited to just slot games. You might like it but what is not giving you success should not be continued unless OP was just gambling for fun but that is not what is happening as the OP would not be complained if OP was just gambling for fun.

I felt the same when I lost just a few bucks in slots. It looks like the casino allows me to win free spins so that I won't stop betting on this game but because I'm not really into slots, I stopped playing. But yep I still lost almost $20 which I could have bet on some other sports match. I was still thinking the casino lured me to try their slot game and took easy few bucks from my account.

Yes, you should quit that game. It's an easy game to get addicted. You spend hours a day playing $10 in slot games actually, which kills your time without you realizing you wasted them.

I also discovered that there are some slot games that are for time wasting and  there is no good profit. And when you discovered that the game is not making any progress in your gaming time then you have to change the slot game and look for good ones to play. Aha!!! $10 for hours, that is real waste of time. I will term it unfruitful gambling time.

I will advise the Op to check another the casino and play around some other games to see if he can like other games to play.

[lixer]

The reason why I rarely play slots now, I didn't quit, I just prefer the game that can give me chances to win and not entirely relying on luck.

I don't get it, what slots are you referring to? As far as I know, there are no slots where you can rely on something else other than luck because all slots games are based on luck since the results are randomly generated using RNGs. How can you not entirely rely on luck for some slot games?

Slot games are enjoyable and exciting to play. However, a gambler must have a decent bankroll and set limit to what you can only afford to lose. This way, even you're not fortunate, it's not that hard to accept since that's your set budget meant for gambling.

That's the reason, they are attractive, the gameplay of slot games is usually enjoyable and engaging which attracts more and more gamblers towards it, and most importantly, slots provide gamblers with the opportunity to hit extremely high multipliers and this is also one of the biggest factors why so many gamblers are into slots even when they are constantly losing, they don't stop because they hope they can get a big win and recover everything some day.

This is why it would really be that important that on the moment that you do find yourself being that not enjoying anymore and at the same time you have spent up too much money, then this is the best time for you to quit up or make up some break so that you wont really be messing up your life with if you would really be tending to play further.

Actually, what you suggest is quite late, it should stop when not too much money has been spent on slots and there is financial management that needs to be done.

But when too much money has been used, usually people who are too addicted will not be able to stop easily, they will continue to play with any money.
This will increase their stress and be more likely to continue playing and take revenge for the defeat that has already occurred.

So management and control from the beginning before the game starts it needs to be done, don't wait when everything gets very detrimental.

In slots you can choose the bet size and bet thousands of dollars per minute. The point is not how much you lose per game session (this depends on the player and he can increase the bets both in sports betting and in slots) but whether the money and time spent are worth the pleasure received. Slots occupy a large niche in gambling, which means that a lot of people like them (I don't like them at all).

For some player, the triggering factor to think to stop playing slots is not the amount of money lost but rather the feeling of not getting entertained anymore.  Remember some players play for some pleasure or entertainment and for them, as long as they have free funds to spend, they don't mind losing much money as long as the game serves its purpose.  In case of @OP, he was frustrated on a certain game not the entirety of slot games.  So I stated that stopping to play slots is all on his decision and at the same time suggesting him to try other slot games.  If his feeling of have a bad taste after his session, then I believe it is time for him to pause playing slots for sometime, and think whether to firmly stop playing slots at all.

But when too much money has been used, usually people who are too addicted will not be able to stop easily, they will continue to play with any money.
This will increase their stress and be more likely to continue playing and take revenge for the defeat that has already occurred.

Well addicted to gambling people will never cease to gamble because they already have this disease that disable them to control their urge to gamble.  Whether they win or lose money, they will continue to gamble until his bankroll is emptied out and will have a high chance of redepositing to refill his bankroll and play again.

So management and control from the beginning before the game starts it needs to be done, don't wait when everything gets very detrimental.

This I highly agree, a person must have a plan on how to play his funds.  Bankroll management is one key factor to make one gambling experience not so frustrating and is best in moderating losses since the gambler will know when to stop or continue base on the flow of his bankroll fund.

The thing I have to tell you is that you should have a concrete understanding of any gambling game before you embark on it, because the major thing that made us to experience a lot of losses in gambling is due to lack of experience, I know quite well that gambling is a game of luck and fortunately you might be lucky enough to win a game unexpectedly,  so when you get loss of gambling know that gambling is all about risks,.

[hyudien]

I'm not that addicted to gambling, to be honest, the session that i described on this topic was my last gambling session, after that, i didn't bet more, only played a free roll on Sunday but my AK got busted against QQ. But not risking money on the way.

I'm still having a bad flavor about that slot session, and gambling is not to end that way, maybe it will take me 1 or 2 months to decide to come back to that casino.

A good enough behavior if you are not addicted to gambling, because we should be able to do gambling properly and avoid the element of addiction. In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, you'll want to make sure that you've got a good understanding of what you're doing and how you're doing it. The problem comes when they lose self-control when they have experienced defeat with the action taken is to deposit money back into gambling and experience defeat again and again.
I think everyone must have felt bad when they lost even if they were those whose main purpose of gambling was not to make money. because there is money that is lost and it becomes a right that sometimes it is annoying but we must be able to accept it because it has become a thing that must happen so naturally, what must be considered is not to put money back into gambling again and again it is not a solution when experiencing defeat.

Maybe I would say that your assumption is quite correct in this case, and I also often say in some of my reviews that one of the keys to being able to survive in the long term from the various negative impacts of gambling is to have a proper understanding of what and how gambling actually is.

Basically, gambling is an activity that has risks, but actually the risk can be minimized when a gambler treats it in the right way, meaning that some people who are now experiencing many negative impacts caused by gambling are because they always treat gambling in the wrong way such as with an approach that is too impulsive, and this is done because from the start they do not have a proper understanding of what and how gambling actually is which ultimately makes them fall into a hole of depression.

Had anyone here had an experience like that and think about quit playing slots?

That's the real experience of many gamblers who chase too much after winning, 1 unique fact that many gamblers feel, when we chase too much after winning, we'll be made even more devastated by all those spins, but when we play with the aim of entertainment, then we usually get big wins. There's a lot of gambling that ignores luck because it requires strategy or theories, such as sports betting.

If you're always looking for a win with every deposit you make on slots, you better stop playing slots immediately, because it will destroy you.

You wrote everything correctly, but I want to add that in slots, a gambler does not use any of his unique skills. And this is wrong. The fact is that we get the maximum Profit where we use skills that are rarely found in other people. And this is the main reason why I do not play slots.

In slot games everything is a matter of luck or meaning all wins depend on how lucky you are at that time, there is no skill that can be applied to increase the chances of winning because after all there is nothing that needs or can be analyzed in this type of game,
This means of course that the intention and purpose of earning income is certainly not recommended to be brought to this type of game, but maybe I would also say that even if you gamble with the intention of entertainment, it still does not guarantee that you will be able to get a big win.

The point and actually the intention and purpose to produce is always not recommended in any type of gambling, but also never think that gambling with the intention of entertainment will be able to bring you to victory, the point is whatever your goal, you will only be able to win when you are lucky especially in this type of slot game. On the other hand I understand that sports betting is more recommended because it can be analyzed, but you can't say that there is no luck there, because whatever type of bet it is, luck is still a factor that will always be a part of it, there are many cases that occur where a much stronger team turns out to be defeated by a team that is almost in the relegation zone, meaning that defeat is still very possible, and that's why I said above that the purpose of gambling to produce is always prohibited in any type of gambling you do.

For me, I really think that it's not the slot game that it's OP's frustration, but  the amount he lost in it, he lacked real emotional control as at the time of playing that slot game and recorded such intolerable loses tho himself.

I think he should start off by learning to control his emotions in gambling and how to gamble in moderation, else even if he changes to other slot games, he would still release the same mistakes again and blame the new slot game for his excesses. It's a work he has to do on himself and not about the slot games he's playing. We still have people that play slot games in moderation and OP should learn to be one of them

[Makus]

I think before he made this decision he's had a lot of losses, there are good and bad days I totally agree with that, but what if the bad days outweighs the good days..a friend of mine once said "don't stop gambling cause your next trial might be your next recovery or breakthrough" and that mindset has made him lose a lot of money..

Your friend should disregard the idea of having a breakthrough or hitting the jackpot at the next trial because, that seem more like the voice of addiction and irresponsible gambling. If he keeps up with such mindset, he's likely to get addicted in no time. The bitter truth about gambling is, if it's not your lucky day, it's not. No matter how hard you try or how long you play gambling, if it's not your lucky day, you'll still walk out of the casino with loses. If anyone gvkes with the mindset that luck is the only way they can win, then 50% of addiction problems would be settled, then all they need is to get disciplined and gamble for fun.

In practice, $400 works well for a bet size of $0.2.

Well, at the end of the day, as players we never forget our maximum multiplier, it's like an achievement, but anyway, one should never forget that Slots are about spinning, spinning and "fun", I have been playing Slots frequently since 2022 and let's say I'm keeping in good shape... of spins.

There are no unique skills in slot games, slots are purely about luck. I think you misinterpreted what i typed, i told the OP that if he plays slots with the main intention of profit, then it's better to get out of slots, there are many bets that can use the main reason for profit, just like sports betting which requires strategy & a little analysis .

[taufik123]

This I highly agree, a person must have a plan on how to play his funds.  Bankroll management is one key factor to make one gambling experience not so frustrating and is best in moderating losses since the gambler will know when to stop or continue base on the flow of his bankroll fund.

Yes, anyone who wants to get into gambling should understand how to manage their bankroll and the goal from the beginning should also be clear whether gambling is used as a place to make money or just as entertainment.

If only as entertainment no large funds need to be used, the important thing is that the quality of the games is not about how much is wagered or used for some games in gambling.

Sometimes people who are too greedy just use their money for the purpose of big profits without thinking about the risk of losing money on their first gamble.

Well sport betting isn't exempted from from being a game of luck. All gambling games are based on luck, because if truly strategy and analysis is what guarantees wining, then gambling could also be seen as an occupation without anyone kicking against it. The reason they use the word Favourite to win a match or competition is because, there is still a possibility that the opponent could end up becoming the winner, but based on stats the favourite team might be on good form or during their last meeting they beat the opponent. Sports betting is my best gambling game, because it makes you think and make analysis, which might seem as though we are in charge or bear all the credits if paraventure we won the bet.

Yesterday I decide to have a slots session, and it wasn't even fun. I made a $100 depo and start playing on my favorite slot game Nitropolis 4 from ELK

Most of the spins where dead spins with $2 bets, when I lose all my balance I made another $100 depo. And again some bad rolls until I hit the bonus, on that bonus I win $30 before the bonus started a $0 from the 8 free spins.

After that experience it leves a bad taste, I didn't enjoy the session, and feels like a rigged game.

Had anyone here had an experience like that and think about quit playing slots?

Gambling as a whole is rigged, it doesn't matter what you play in the casino be it crash, slots or whatever it may be it is programmed to take your money, you can only get lucky but if you don't run away with your wins you are bound to lose it all, and you might get trapped in that constant loop of winning and losing.. I've tried slot once and I wasn't interested again after my first trial. I think people lose a lot of money on this slot game, most of my friends that are into gambling have lost a lot in this game. Quitting might be a good option or you canjust set a limit for yourself
