So my question is:
(1) Is there a logical reason behind why slots make x10 feel easier to achieve?
(2) Or maybe it’s just a psychological trick because slots are designed to keep giving “small wins” to make us feel engaged?
Curious what others think, especially from people who play both slots and sports betting.
1. Because it is easier, all you need is one bomb.

2. In slots winning 10x is easier and it happens more often but it's possible mostly with bonus feature, so we have more winning combinations than a regular roll and it increases the bet amount considerably too so there is no trick here, it's all just math but we don't see it completely just looking at the rewards and in simple terms we just only see what we wanted to see.
