Don't you hate those jackpot winners who win at least thousands of bucks at the slots on the first few spins?
-
I sure as hell do. I especially hate it when I hear about them winning jackpots on just their first couple of spins on their first night when they've never even played the slots before. The reason why I hate them so much is because unlike them, I've been playing those slot machines for 5 years now. I've played since September or October of 2002(Yes, 5 straight years), and I've NEVER ONCE hit a jackpot!!! I've gone through 10s of thousands of spins over the course of 5 years playing the slots with the advertised jackpots of 5,000 to 10,000 credits, never the Progressives while going to the nearby river boats here in Indiana and I've NEVER hit a jackpot. It's not fair when these people hit with just a few spins. It's not fair to me. It's wrong, it's insulting, and it's just not fair. Where the hell is my jackpot? WHAT ABOUT ME??? For 5 years, I've played the slots with the advertised jackpots of 5,000 to 10,000 credits, never the Progressives

Answer:
You don't hate them, you're jealous of them. Don't worry it's a natural reaction! I seen it many, many times and feel exactly like you. However, know that, one day your "turn" will come and then others will be jealous of you. Just stay in control of your play/spending while you're waiting for your ship to come in. No need to lose all your savings and help those oh-so-poor casinos build BBDs! Some people are "luckier" than others or is it the house is "luckier" than everyone? Hmmm. EDIT: check out the story below. It can happen... but is it luck?!

I've heard that one before: "What about me"? Once you've implanted it in your head that the house always wins, you won't ask that any more. Those people that won the jackpots, were they "luckier" than you? Hardly! They just played the right slot machine at the right time. The amount played to payout ratio must have been right and the RNG paid out as it was supposed to. No trick to it. You weren't "in the right place at the right time"! Maybe one day you'll be in the "right place" at the "right time" and win a jackpot! But when you think about it, say you won a $10k jackpot, how much did you spend/play in the years leading up to your so-called big win? You'll see that you're still in the red. Probably. As those "lucky" people will also find out after the hoopla wears off! Sobering isn't it?

No but if you makes you feel worse I won 1000 bucks on a video poker machine and my cousin won 20000 playing a slot machine.

Yeah, they suck. I want to mug them and their grandma in the parking lot.

This might make you feel slightly better. I remember once I was playing a machine and used up my last quarter, maybe $40 worth, and then another person came to the machine and put in two quarters and won a sizeable amount (not the jackpot, but I think the next prize down, which was considerable). I was really mad at the time, but then I did some research, and contrary to popular belief, individual machines won't always "pay out" jackpots over consistently long intervals. The slot machines you see are actually all controlled by a central computer that spits thousands of random numbers out at pre-defined time intervals to the whole block the slot machines every second, and only if your random number happens to match the "jackpot" at the exact time at the exact machine do you win. So if you're playing one particular machine and stick in your last coin, and then the next person to come up puts in one coin and wins, there's no need to be mad...that pull had exactly the same chance of winning as any other pull, and there's no "guarantee" you would have won had you had just one more coin to play. It's no different than buying a "quick draw" lottery ticket that the computer chooses the numbers for...the next person who uses the machine has exactly the same chance for the computer picking matching numbers for the final draw as you did, and being at the machine at the machine for the "right" quick pick doesn't guarantee anything until the matching draw.

That's why it's called gambling. Maybe you need to get some counseling and get out of the game. Here are other things you might want to do while in Vegas. http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/free-attractions.html
