Hi, I'm new on this forum, and I gotta say, this topic on the psychology of betting is pretty interesting. I totally agree that as humans, we're always looking for patterns, even when they don't exist. Actually, I used to think that pressing the bet button at a certain time would give me a better outcome. But now I know that the outcome is decided in milliseconds after I press the button. It's all about the RNG and RTP.

Well first of all, welcome to the forum and welcome to my thread. Yes, the result that you are seeing is just a graphical representation of the outcome that has been determined a few milliseconds after you pressed the "bet" button. Grin

You actually have to go to "Brick n mortar" casinos and then take time to observe people's reactions to appreciate this. You find that some people are rubbing the screen.... others press the side of the bet button and some have a whole ritual that they follow to make bets.

It is all in the mind..... and it has nothing to do with the mechanism of the way that the outcome are calculated. Grin

I call it just the mindset of gamblers who do things like the ridiculousness of pressing the bet button before the reels stop or doing superstitious things and we can conclude that this is the psychology of the mind of people who gamble.
but in reality they still use this kind of habit just because they believe they will get big results when doing ridiculous things like that and I am one of those people who do such a habit.
but for some reason when doing those things it always gets good results even though it's just luck anyway.

and however the psychological habit cannot be stopped because it is like addiction to doing the action of rubbing the screen or even blowing the screen when entering the bonus round in the slot game. but indeed all of that only depends on the RTP and our luck.
