I have never managed to hit a big jackpot, but I think if I do manage to do it, the last thing I will think about is that I did not bet more. Risk management is one of the foundations of financial stability through which the gambler remains responsible. Violate risk management is about the same as putting a stick in the wheel.
Well, that's the thing right, if you win you want to have bet more, and if you lose you want to have bet less....
That's basically how it goes.
The reality though is just what it is, and that means that you will lose more than what you bet overall.
Sad, boring, but true.
None of us can know when we will be lucky and under what circumstances, so it is not quite correct to assume that if you have managed to significantly increase your bankroll with a low bet, then if you had made a bigger bet the same thing would have happened. I think the algorithm of winnings distribution takes into account the maximum possible winnings at any given time. That's why very often the winnings happen when we make a small bet. I do not claim to be true, but judging by my personal experience, this is exactly what happens.
This is the first time I read something like that, and I'm not sure whether it works the way you said (it seems that you don't know it for sure either).
On one hand, doesn't it go against provably fairness? On the other hand, it is reasonable that if you build a casino you implement mechanisms to avoid bankruptcy in the event of several massive lucky breaks among users. So I don't know. Maybe it works that way in some sites, and not in others?
If you think about it logically, the casino algorithm simply must have a mechanism that would not allow the user to win an amount that is not at the disposal of the casino for these needs. In my opinion, this is quite a logical construction of the system.
There have been situations when someone won the jackpot and the casino representatives reported that the slot machine was defective and the client received instead of winning a penalty in the form of a small fee.
I do not know how it really happens, but I tend to believe that everything happens like that.
