Personally from my own experience, I've found out that when it comes to playing the slot machine, so many people are hooked on it. It doesn't matter if they are playing online or at casinos, they simply can't stop playing easily.

What's the psychology behind slot machine addiction?
 
Slots addiction does not surprise me. that thing is designed to hook you. Those sounds and small wins will make you chase it. I’ve seen someone sit for hours just spinning. even me, I tried it once and I understand why people get stuck. You would think the next spin will change everything, but it's a lie.

Yeah, that's very correct. I also think that because it gives players a high chance of winning, they tend to play it more. I know someone who won more than $50k from playing slot machine. Do you think it's going to be easy to advice such a man to stop playing slot machines? Never, that's not going to happen.
