Slots are fun…and nothing else
Hey all, I just joined and want to jumpstart my blog with something more serious than the mere greeting. I’m Sam, and turning the reels is my biggest passion. Although I sometimes try the roulette and other live dealer tables.
Don’t think I’m a geeky bore, but gambling is my favourite subject matter to reflect on. The growing concerns over safer gambling matters prove that people still consider turning the reels a side hustle. But my opinion is the slots are just a form of entertainment. These can’t be perceived as anything else, and you’ll never convince me.
I’m just the office drone. Slots are among the few ways for me to feel the adrenaline rush. Thanks to the multiple themes existing, I can dive into a horror, enjoy fun animals, or even feel the vibes of the Wild West from my cosy home.
Turning the reels has a strong emotional element. These exciting sounds and smooth visuals can’t make me feel excited.
Results are always random (of course if you pick a legal and UKGC-licensed casino). The fact that i can’t impact the outcome is probably the thing I adore most. At the same time, this point proves that reel-based machines can’t be the way to earn funds. The house always wins.
The massive payouts I face sometimes feel captivating. I’m sure every player has faced the desire to turn the reels with a monetary purpose. Guys, I’m not an exception. But that experience taught me to forget about it. Each session should just be a way to have fun. If you win - consider it a nice bonus, nothing else.
Otherwise, there’s a high risk of getting a gambling addiction.
You may think I know everything and am not at risk. You’re wrong. I set weekly deposit limits based on my budget, as well as hundreds of other British players. It’s great that all legit British casinos provide such functionality. My limits differ depending on the budget I have, but I always stay within reasonable limits.
Play slots just like you enjoy video games - do it for fun and let nothing change your attitude.
I dont know why you havent had any replies but here goes. I think by talking about gambling you are taking the steps necessary to open up a dialogue that is hard to have with oneself. I urge you not to play slots or any "mindless" gambling activities in which the game is designed so the house always wins, or if you do, to do it well within your limit of what it deemed "fun" and "reasonable" . We both know that loose terminology like this doesnt help people who are at the lower end of the economic spectrum who are always at higher risk if the amount they gamble is a higher percentage of their net income. I wish you all the best in any gambling and/or addiction issues you face. I know i've never really had the chance to have a great conversation about my own addictions but i suppose i can always make a start.
