I honestly don't know if it is the thrill of the win or the thought of winning. Casinos are set to win and you always see them trying to lure the big whales in to get their money.</p>\n<p>The house always win and that is what the gambler is trying to break. It is the opportunity to beat the house and be a winner.They feed you crumbs that lure you in to spend more and more for the chance to win it all back. The deeper you get the more you spend, chasing the impossible. The machines are set at a normal ratio of 60/40 so if you spend 600 you will get 400 back. You have still lost 200 and to get that back you have to be very lucky.</p>\n<p>I have always heard the stories of how much someone has won but they don't tell you how much you spent to get that. Very few win and it is a serious addiction that can make a family lose their house and cars and could break a family up.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pkypedm7x","appParentAuthor":"roboske","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
