Entertaining yourself via gambling is interconnected with chasing profits. Even if you're playing with small amounts, you can still win a fairly large percentage — and yet still feel unsatisfied. That’s because your brain starts thinking about what could have been if your deposit for that bet had been larger, and how much you could have won. Then you begin imagining how you would spend that potential win, and those thoughts are so tempting that you end up increasing your stakes, trying to catch the same percentage gain you’ve already experienced. And that’s when you lose — and loss is never a foundation for good entertainment.
Thankfully, I have never done this, but I still lost a significant amount that I regret. I bet the same amount in slots, I don't try to increase it, and I won some high multipliers too. Now, after winning 10k+ multipliers, that's when I realized that it can happen. What I seek is to taste that sweet winning amount again.
I never had the thought of increasing the bet because it's going to hasten the losses of my deposit, and I don't like that. I still want to have fun while playing.
I've never experienced such big wins myself, but that's because I don't usually play slot games. Only occasionally, when I get some casino bonuses with free spins — but in those cases, the bet size is usually around $0.10–$0.20, and there are no huge multipliers. And even if there were, the winnings wouldn’t be that large with such small bets.
I’ve heard that it’s possible to win big on slots, but I’ve never encountered it personally, so I don’t fully believe in it. Besides, I always wonder how much a person ends up losing before finally hitting such a multiplier.
