Winning a bit then losing all the way

[Kelward]

For me, slot games generally look like money-eaters. If I'm lucky enough to win, the best thing to do is to withdraw money and not continue, because the continuation is tempting, but it completely pulls out everything in the bankroll. I think such an approach is what slot games are designed for; they are always so colorful and tempting that it seems that victory should be close, but it often turns out in favor of the casino owner.

The best strategy after you win is to withdraw it and enjoy it, it is your reward for risking your money, so never gamble with your wins, only focus on your bankroll. Slot games are totally luck based, not as if skill based games don't require luck too, so when you gamble don't have too much expectations to win. From my experience and other gamblers experiences we can't beat the casinos on the long run, if you enjoy gambling you should focus more on having fun while at it. Very important to note is that you should use amounts that you can afford to loose for your own peace of mind..

Do not just use small bankroll, use the amount of money that you can lose and not get annoyed while losing it. But if you are still losing and getting annoyed, that means gambling is not for you.

I do not get your point, you mean if the bankroll is big then the chances of getting annoyed will be minimized? I do not think so. Still I agree that if a gambler is not ready to easy go with their losses then they are not fit to gamble. Gambling is fine when you are able to treat both profits and loses equally which means even you gamble for profits, you always need to accept your losses. When you are not ready to accept losses, you go for recovery with the help of martingale kind of strategy and ending up with losing all the bankroll rather than just a fraction of it.

From my experience and other gamblers experiences we can't beat the casinos on the long run, if you enjoy gambling you should focus more on having fun while at it.

Yeah, gambling industry is here to entertain us and not to make us rich. If we are able to beat the house either in short run or long run, I guess the total industry of gambling might have bankrupted by this time.

My point is simple and understandable. Do not gamble with the money that you can not afford to lose is what I mean. Gamble with small bankroll does not mean you can be able to afford to lose the money. If you can not be able to afford to lose the money, reduce it and make it smaller. If he is still getting annoyed after reducing the bankroll, then he can stop gambling.

Although I’m losing small bankroll only but it’s still annoying to experience this frequently on slot games.

Slot games is brutal if you are not the chosen to become lucky for that day.

It is precisely the slot games that are the most addictive, and the most profitable for casinos. They are designed to make you want to play more and more, to keep betting, although I would say that in online casinos today the rest of the games also have a high degree of design.

In your case you say that you won a moderate percentage, keep betting and lose a larger percentage of your bankroll but it is not uncommon to see people who hit the jackpot and bet it all again until they lose it and more.

Slot addictive, I will say yes but being the most profitable, I don't think I agree with that because from my assessment, I have had the most losses and the least winnings in slot. This may not be the case for others but for me I tend to lean towards sports betting specifically NBA and soccer which are the most rewarding so far. When I target big wins in slot, it rarely comes, what do come are consecutive losses and small wins that cannot cover those losses which is why the capital keep depleting until they are completely lost.

Do not just use small bankroll, use the amount of money that you can lose and not get annoyed while losing it. But if you are still losing and getting annoyed, that means gambling is not for you. You can find other things that is fun and used it to fill your gambling hours. Expect to lose while gambling because that is how gambling sites programmed it.

No matter how much we paint it, even small amounts were can afford to lose is painful when we always lose it, especially in a particular pattern like near misses. Even though you can afford to lose the funds, but no one really loves losing, do you?

The pain in this case isn't about the financial loss, but about consistent loses when you know you could've won and enjoyed your wins. In OP's case, he gets a little win and then everything drained out, the loses is more like a setup, so I feel his pain.

One of the reasons why i rarely do a slot games because once you win already you will not experience another set of wins. Before I did a ritwal or belief that once you win in a particular game already you must need to change the game for a new possible wins well there's no really in to it but the slot never give another set of wins to the players you take another losses to before a good bonus spins. Reason why I do prefer the same time with the sports betting because its all about the data, the stats to win against the odds.

I believe most of the slot player do this since it’s very rare occasion for a same slot game to give a back to back huge win. The odds is so small for that to happened so it’s better to change game once you hit big win hoping you will the huge win at the right time.

In my experience, I never win back to back high multiplier on same slot game when I keep playing after a huge win. It always results to frequent dead spin until I lose again my profit same with OP.

It has been happening right before now, that you will discover gamblers loosing and then at the same time winning, while the most horrible of it all is when someone is already winning and then later you discover that it turned to losses, that is why we cant always continue to gambling when we see that we are losing on a streak, taking a break could help for a while, then we strategize and continue gambling, some may also have to revisit and crosscheck their gambling strategy used if there's need for an amendment or not before they continue.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Do you experience this always since you started gambling? I know that it's a common experience but yet, there are some days or time which you can experience a winning streak for a good number of times that you will stake and of you want to prove smarter than them, you just have to stop and withdraw your profits, and can continue on the next day. If you don't stop after winning a few times, the casino will take back the initial profit they gave to you and if you ask, there's no gambler that doesn't face same faith.

I’m always tired experiencing this annoying situation that I will win a little bit like 10% of my bankroll then my bankroll went downhill due to extreme losing streak that sometimes makes me think that the small win is just a bait to play more until you lose everything again.

Although I’m losing small bankroll only but it’s still annoying to experience this frequently on slot games.

This is a standard tricky scheme - give a little at 1st, to take away more. You noticed correctly, this is a kind of bait.

I am not sure that slot machines are programmed with exactly such algorithms to give a little at 1st, and then take away (explicitly), but I believe that this is directly related to the RTP. That is, RTP <95% leads to the result when you play for a long time. The longer your gaming session lasts, the higher the chances that you will lose. In principle, your story demonstrates exactly this.

What is the solution? The solution is obvious. You said that at the beginning you win a little - 10%. Is this not enough for you? Are you greedy and want even more? But why don't you stop at this win? 10% is better than 0% and even better than - 100%. Change your behavior strategy. Win a little - stop the gaming session for today. Repeat the next day. And for the next one too. So little by little, during the week (10% x 7 = 70%) you will get a good increase in the deposit.

No thanks needed.

You’re not alone on this, bro. I’m also a fan of slots. I usually start small, telling myself it’s just for fun but then a losing streak hits, and it starts to feel like the system is rigged. That’s when I get aggressive, trying to chase the win… and I end up losing everything.

I don’t even know when I’ll finally learn my lesson. It’s happened to me so many times. Sometimes, I try to convince myself to stop playing but I still can’t resist, especially when I’ve got nothing else to do.

Give gambling only what you can afford, just because you want something in return doesn't mean you should take all the risks you can, it's a wrong way of handling gambling.

I am into slot gambling and I've lost count on how much I've lost but mind you it's like giving away free money at times because I use the smallest money that can't ever cause me any pain and sad thoughts.

Slots is not fair for big risk taker, there are thousands bad luck waiting for you, and after every win comes the bad luck, you are either enjoying slots or end up hating the game, but can't lie, I have some good times in the past.

You just need to choose the right money management strategy. For example, it is not necessary to gamble with all the money you have, putting all your winnings into a deposit. You can try to do it this way: if you win, then withdraw it and put it aside, and continue playing slots or cards (whichever you like best) using the rest of the deposit. Or send half of your winnings to a deposit, and put the other half aside, putting it immediately on withdrawal from the casino.

In general, there are many capital management strategies in gambling, and they all change the expenses and income from gambling, regardless of how the gambler plays the gambling games themselves.

You need to choose a money strategy for yourself individually.

There is just another thread that explains how gambling addiction is developed https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5535679.0. This is exactly what happens. The winning hooks you, and then you start losing. But since you are hooked you want to experience the feelings of winning again, you want to be a winner again and so you keep trying.

Winning stage: Gambling addiction starts off with the alluring winning stage, where everything seems perfect, and you are winning more often than you are losing. It's easy to get hooked at this stage, because of the thrill of winning, and the gambler still believes that they are in control. However, this stage is usually short-lived.
Losing stage: Losing stage follows after the winning stage. Here, you start to lose significant amounts of money, but since you know what it’s like to win, you continue to gamble, believing that the next win must be just around the corner.
Chasing/desperation phase: This is when you have lost so much money that you will do anything to win it back. This may involve lying to friends and family members, borrowing or stealing money in order to gamble, and chasing your losses. By this stage, it is extremely difficult to quit, since the gambler is in so much financial ruin that they are desperate for money.

You’re not alone on this, bro. I’m also a fan of slots. I usually start small, telling myself it’s just for fun but then a losing streak hits, and it starts to feel like the system is rigged. That’s when I get aggressive, trying to chase the win… and I end up losing everything.

I don’t even know when I’ll finally learn my lesson. It’s happened to me so many times. Sometimes, I try to convince myself to stop playing but I still can’t resist, especially when I’ve got nothing else to do.

The thing is that it can actually be rigged in some places. You need to be careful where you choose to play. If the casino is honest, then your emotions are only rigging you.

Bro we experience the same thing even most slot players feel it. The fact of brutal defeat will not be avoided if we can not control ourselves, the slot is very dependent on luck you can be lucky 1 hour after that the round can change completely, personally I am used to it. Lol And to minimize losses I always set limits or even if I win 20% / 50% of my initial capital I will withdraw it, it is not good to want a big win in a game of luck.

But it is, and we know it. Maybe while you are winning, you should stop for a while and then restart? Or while you start facing a loss streak, stop chasing it? You don't need to lose all of your bankroll at once, nor if you are winning.

True, but that applies to all lucky games, doesn't it?

Legal casinos or online betting may have less manipulation, although this is only an assumption. However, most of it is not because of dishonest providers, but rather we are wrong in deciding to gamble because of our mistakes in making decisions when we lose. So, it is not the service that is to blame, but we must introspect ourselves because following our emotions when gambling. An the funny things is, after everything is gone, started to blame the casino

It is easy to say but it is hard to do especially he says "winning a bit" which I assume it like winning just small amount maybe no more than 25% of the initial deposit.
Usually gamblers want to win at least 2x of the initial deposit, so winning a bit wont make them stop and withdraw the small winning because gamblers has their own winning target so they will keep on playing until achieving the target or until losing all the deposit.
I've been experiencing this situation so many times but I'm not regretting it because I know my own limit so anytime I make a deposit, I'm ready to lose it all and I wont withdraw if I win few percent of my initial deposit only.

Yes mate exactly.
Even when there's a winning, there's still losing at the corner. Which is why it's very essential to risk with what you can afford to lose in gamble because losing is also part of the game. If winning can be fun, I also imagine losing to be part of the fun, but it can only be when the gambler is using what he or she can afford to lose in gamble.
