A few weeks ago i started to play a slot on Party Poker. I was starting to play with $10.00 and when the free rolls bonus was coming after that if i was over by $5.00 or more i was stopping the play.
This bonus was coming regularly and i was over by a little bit over $50.00 i thought i had found something to make a little bit of money not to get rich just no loosing.
However it was to good to be true then the bonus was not coming anymore. But like any gambler i did not stop until i lost what i had won plus another $50.00.
What an idiot i am thinking i had found a slot and be over with it.

You can't "find" a slot that is consistendly +ev. They all have a house edge build into the payout structure. So if you hit a winning streak, take your money and run, never to return. Keep on playing will only lead to losing it all back.

Right !!!!! The best thing is stay away from slot. For entertainment is ok as long as you know when to stop and have discipline bankroll management. That game really dangerous !! Bonus, free spin really excited poison. Back to play poker is better

The problem of the player is always the permanence When one does not know when to quit loses up briefs Especially when you go and fattening cattle, it is the worst because they think they will continue to cattle all day and there comes the pijazo We must keep cool and knowing when to quit

Hi, everybody. You were simply intoxicated success. And sobering up comes when already anything isn't present also anything it is impossible to make. The patience and work will correct everything. Good luck all at tables and in life.

Bad move there pinotte. When you had that 50, you should have stopped. There you get the money and stop playing slots anywhere in the same site, at least for that day I hope you wont repeat this mistake again. When you win such amounts just keep a few $ to play in jackpot slots (you never know) and get the rest in your pocket.

Thats why i try avoid casino games. I did forbid casinogames in site i use currently for poker playing (Triobet, Unibets smaller brother
With first request they did forbid casino, but sidegames at pokertables were still available and i had some big rollercoaster in my bankroll. Luckily i did hit decent win and asked to forbid that option also to avoid problems.
There was big bonus on casino at the time, but i pulled my ... together and said no to it, because i know i lose in casino, if there is option to play in it.

Yep, playing casino games without a good bonus offer behind it, is just -ev. The rooms have a good reason to implement at least a few of those games in their poker clientsoftware. Easy money for them.
Some Poker Sites give you the option to exclude yourself from Casino Games some don't the key is to know when to stop after hitting a good run and take advantage of deposit bonuses if your playing slots with a Jackpot Feature GL.

A bit unethical if you ask me for all the sites adding casino games to the poker software. You wanna have casino games? Fine, open a separate site and put whatever you like there. Dont try to lure the players losing their money like this.
