If your budget’s running low, why not try tiny bets instead?

Too much time in gambling does not make someone addicted. But how frequently they visit the casino makes them addicted to it. I may visit the casino in a day and spend almost 12 hours there. Eventually, the next time you see me, visiting the casino will be in another two weeks or a month. The time spent there doesn't make me addicted, but if I keep going to the casino, every day, week in week out, gambling without control. I will surely become an addict without knowing.

Are you imagining things, 12 hours is half a day. Any gambler that spends 12 hours gambling is an addict.

It doesn't matter, both the time spent playing and how frequent visiting the casino can turn a gambler into an addict, gambling involvement should be done in moderate, the time spent playing and how regular to play in a casino matters when judging addicts.

Addiction is a slow walker, important that you notice it early before it does damage to finance and standard of living.

Lmao, for real men. Even I can’t gamble more than 4 hours unless I’m on physical casino since there’s a lounge and other amenities that you can spend free time when not gambling.

But dedicating 8 hours on gambling nonstop in online casino is surely an addiction case regardless if you will done this once a week.

It’s actually my total hours of gambling spread for a month of gambling.

I do agree, with limited budget, I don't think that we can even spend a hour in online gambling playing slots or whatever games we want to. Unless you are really that lucky that you've won and so the game is extended. But come to think of it, if you won already then I would rather withdraw and exited

Maybe in land base casinos as you have said, maybe you can just sit in an empty slot chair and not betting at all. Maybe waiting fory our friends to finished their game.

So that could be a good gauge on how addicted a person is, if they can spend 8 hours playing online.

You didn't mention the site or the gambling site where you did that?

It's not worth to be mentioned on these casino site. Cause this particular site only available for our local currency deposit. That's why I did not mentioned it name or share the link.

I have not also bought bonus below $20 in any of the crypto casinos that I have used before, the bonus is usually $20 and above, so I'm surprise as OP mentioned the bonus he bought a super scatter bonus with $2.4, I have not even tried to buy bonuse on some local casinos apart from crypto so I don't whether they allow bonus buy of the amount you mentioned.

Some Casino also offer trip to deposit and let's you play on local currency. Like BC game let's me play on bdt same as 1win. So you just need to find the perfect casino to play.

Here’s some tip from @Bitcoinhunt3r on how you can determine the currency for lowest minimum bet on each game slot provider.

I'm not sure if you know a more practical and cheaper way to buy spins this method is effective for Pragmatic provider, while in the game just change your currency to VND (Vietnam Dong) well for super buy spin you only spend 50k VND or $1.9 and if you want to play on Hacksaw provider change your currency to ARS (Argentina) I use this method to try all new games especially for low Bankroll. As you said, this game has high volatility so the risk of losing is also higher.

This method is indeed cool and effective to have more fun on slot games without risking huge amount.

Thanks buddy this one was helpful. I didn't know that vnd Vietnam dong currency has the lowest value and allows to buy super sctter in that low price. Yeah I just try it in just four dollar I was able to buy two super scatter and some balance we left there.

I don't know what you mean by "costs me $100 to buy it"? Are you saying that on average this particular game will require you to spend that amount before you know you'll unlock the bonus game? Is there some benefit to getting the bonus game, like you have a much greater chance of winning an amount higher than $100? All the odds on these slot games are calculated to take your money, so all you'll do by spending less is lose your money at a slower rate and get lower rewards, but you seem to acknowledge that in the last paragraph.

You don't know or don't have any idea how bonus buy works cos you don't have any experience playing slots game. This is the basic of the slot game that you can buy a bonus which will allow you to hit the four scatter which will give you free spins. In these free spins you could score lot's of multiplier if you had the luck.

I guess everyone would try to make his budget to run as long as possible and will continue to reduce bets, when his balance is moving to zero, to a reasonably low amounts. I think my smallest bet that I would make will be 1 cent. Below that I dont see point of betting. 1 cent, with enough of luck, can be increased to a dollar, which can be spend or nothing. That at least could be a goal. Playing 1sat bets, that is not interesting. Chances to make a balance at least reasonable, with 1 sat bets is really hard and looks more like a waste of time.

Caution : This method can make your balance last much longer, but only use it when your budget is low. If you try this with your regular budget, you could increase your chances of getting addicted to gambling. The longer you keep playing, the higher the risk of addiction.

If I was to play a casino game with what budget I have set for myself and intends to spend much longer time than usual on the game it wouldn't be bad using this method as it makes the entertainment felt deeply with the time it takes. However, the risk of addiction doesn't really matter with any strategy a gambler employs, it's the intentions for gambling that covets addiction and not on how longer you go with what you've already set as your gambling threshold.

In slots this can make sense because everything depends on the number of bets, the more you bet, the greater your chances of winning. But in betting, things can be different, if you see a good bet you might be tempted to place a significantly higher bet than usual because it seems like you've found a good bet. In slots this can also be calculated somehow, if you're willing to lose $10 or $20 and want to bet one cent at a time, you'll prolong your play a little, but it still doesn't guarantee you'll win.

Are you imagining things, 12 hours is half a day. Any gambler that spends 12 hours gambling is an addict.

It is not the same thing. Let's do the calculation.
12 hours a day = 12 hours spent in gambling for the month. And 3 hours for a gambler who gambles every single day in a month. 3 x 28 days = 84.
The difference is 72 hours. Who is more of an addict now? The thing is, people think they gamble a little every day, but their stats in the casino show they are more of an addict compared to someone who visits the casino once in a blue moon.

People don't gamble for fun, they want to make money as quick as possible that's why your advice will look like meehn to many on here.

Gamblers who cares about fun times are those who risk tiny amount and in return they have a long session of gambling, some said that thinny amount don't make better amount.

I have won good amount using thinny amount of money and I believe it was because I was lucky but what else do I need from gambling than been lucky? This only approved to the fact that tiny amount is all I need to risk on gambling.

There are some games that can allow you to bet below 1 cent and it's good to reduce the loses you could make from betting on these games that don't have enough luck for players to make money. I like taking smaller bets so I can watch the way I am making profits from gambling and if I noticed that the profits aspect is becoming bigger and favorable, I can decide to bet more by increasing the amount so I can have the chances to win more money.

 If I noticed the favour is not coming after increasing the amount for each bet, I will have no option than to reduce it again. This is how gambling are meant to be so you don't gamble and lose your balance when you dont calculate how you bet.

The 3 hours used in your calculation is based on the kind of game, majorly on slot spending 3 hours is already much time spent on gambling. We may consider 3 hours on table games but not on machines.

The more time spend gambling makes it easier to get addicted, from doing it once a day in every month to more days in the same month and worse case that you grow a habit of using 12 hours of your day, poor physical care, poor mental care, moreover how do you get excited having fun once a month while you can split them into weeks, your logic isn't convincing.

What you said is true, addiction can indeed occur due to wrong intentions from the start, but in my opinion in most cases, addiction often occurs due to excessive gambling activities, the reason is because the more often or the longer you gamble, the more things will seem tempting, such as almost winning for example, which incidents can increase a gambler's curiosity.

So literally, we are landing on the same conclusion. Yet, I still feel people get addicted the more time they visit the casino. What keeps them coming, either the bonus, VIP offers, etc. If they are not winning, they are either chasing loss, or if they are not chasing loss, then they are being given a reward for staying longer in the casino. Some casinos reward users for daily visits to the casino. Hope you are aware?

Recently, I found a casino that lets me play the slot games I usually play at a base bet that’s 300× lower than what I normally bet. Here's the math for you guys to make it more easy to understand. Normally a Super Scatter on Gates Of Olympus Super Scatter game costs me $100 to buy it. But in that casino I can buy it only for 2.4$.

Usually I don't buy Super Bonus cause it's out of my budget, I only buy normal bonus buy . But on this casino I was able to buy the super bonus without any issue. Not only that, if I'm running low on budget I can bet here without having fear of takes so much losses.

After 2 losses on Super Bonus, I finally hit one and this one was massive. Although the amount is lower but whatever I played this game for my entertainment.

Gambling is completely dependent on luck. Many people lose a lot of money by betting. But some people suddenly win a lot with a very small bet. No one knows when they will win. That is why, whether the balance is big or small, you always have to place very small bets. Because the bigger the bet, the faster the bankroll will run out. And at that time you will have to deposit money again, which will never be a good step. Because when someone does not think twice about making frequent deposits, then he will become deeply addicted which will not let him stay away from gambling. And that person can gradually be completely destroyed. So the smaller the range of gambling, the better. And to keep the losses small, the bets should be kept small.
