Yeah, Most of the old gambler on play games like Blackjack and Poker to have a better chance of winning with playing the basic strategy. Some still playing slots but they are just doing it to hunt high multiplier using fixed bankroll unlike newbie that will chase jackpot without considering the total expenses of the bankroll. I'm not a regular player of slot games but playing it longer will make user just loss since it house 5% average house edge which is very high for a game that being played for long game session.
I don't deny anything you have said in the quoted part. I did the same when I started gambling. But, If I remember correctly, there were no slot games at that casino where I started my first gambling. I don't want to mention the name, but that was the most popular casino at that time and did not have any 3rd party games. They had some popular In-house games, including Dice, Roulette and a few more which I cannot remember right now. Back then, One of the craziest thing was faucet and rain bonus for active chat members. I remember I've wasted a lot of time in chat room chering for others big win.
Beginners always counting just their current profit and fwhat'swhat’s the real deal of gambling in long run. In result, they are always the users here that blaming or creating scam accusation against casino in retaliation with their losses.
Not only for their lose, But I've seen they leave negative feedback because they did not like the bonus system of the platform. it was discussed here a few days ago.
