Default Looser!

I must be the biggest looser on the face of the planet. Every time I go to a casino, I lose. The last time I went I lost like $300.00, just on slots. With my non winning streak, I won't dare play the tables. I am just so tired of losing ever time I play the slots.

I play at different casinos and I still lose. I even try to do max bets, only one line at a time, and still lose. I tried penny, nickle, dime, and quarter slots, and guess what? I still lose.

I have to wonder if I am just unlucky and should hang up my pennies, or just keep plugging away and hopefully I will hit a big jackpot some day. (What I mean about a big jackpot is like $50.00).

What am I doing wrong? What are good slots to play on? When is the best time to play? I really do love slot machines, I even own one. I really don’t want to ever quit playing but, with my luck it is getting old losing all the time.

Lol Videoslots, you are not a loser. You just haven't been very lucky lately. I have been the same way. I haven't won anything for longer than I care to think about. Your time will come though, you will hit something eventually. As soon as you forget about winning, you will hit! Good luck!

I won $300 the first time I went to a casino (riverboat) when my sister took me back in 1993 (the day I turned 21,) and I was "hooked."

Then I proceeded to lose thousands in the ensuing years...

But, I finally started winning again....

Don't fret, it's just a bad streak you're going through, and it won't last forever!

I have a suggestion, though. It's something that I do from time to time if I can't seem to win anything. Take a break from gambling for awhile. A week, two weeks, a month, whatever it takes. I've gone as long as 3 months.

Not only will this save you some money, but it will also clear your head, so the next time you go to the casino, you won't be constantly thinking "I'm just going to lose again." For the most part, you're there to enjoy yourself, not to beat yourself up.

Believe me, you will have a much more enjoyable trip to the casino after taking a break from there for awhile!

I use to think the same way, since I think gambling is pretty much a waste of money some of the time.

But, then there are the times where I will be plugging away at whatever machine I'm at, and presto, before I know it I'm cashing out a $100 or more!

So, I do agree with winbig to some degree, as he probably plays quite often, that you just have to take a rest from your game play and get rid of that "I'm gonna lose" attitude.

I did notice if I think "I'm gonna lose my money", I usually do lose it most of the time.

Walk into the casino thinking "I gonna win a jackpot today!" (Be convincing to yourself) Believe in it and it may happen.

I've found that I've won my jackpots when I'm just sitting there not thinkin of anything. And, BAM!! I've got all of my hundreds back and then some.
