Do you ever get baited into playing a slot longer?

If you've played slots before, you've probably been there. You just miss that bonus game, or you were one off from hitting a massive payout and think to yourself...why couldn't you have gone one space further and hit.

Does this cause you to keep playing the slot - or do you get so mad that you just have to walk away?

Only couple of times in the recent years and both happened online. Both times I managed to get almost back to even.

Well neither, ... don't play slots really, might have played a couple times in my life,

but that's how those games work, you get oh so close so why not play more🤷

No, I definitely don't get angry because it's not practical. If I run out of money, it means the game is over for me. And if the game is over, I don't think about bonus games anymore because I'm already heading for the exit

When I miss a bonus or a big hit by just one spot, it definitely makes me want to keep spinning. It’s like my brain thinks I’m ‘close,’ even though the odds don’t actually change. If I start getting frustrated, that’s when I force myself to stop, otherwise I’d chase losses for no reason.

The machines make it seem like you are close to winning.

Being close to winning a bonus is tempting, but you have to be careful not to gamble compulsively chasing that bonus and lose all the winnings you've already had. It's all a matter of balance and common sense! I would actually think long and hard and only continue chasing that bonus if I could afford to pay for a few more bets, but without exaggeration or fantasies that would lead to greater losses.
Good luck, CRStals!

I don't think so, because I always exit the casino App after a big win on the slots. It's like when you drink a can of beer. We don't hold an empty can of beer in our hands, right? We open the next one. It's the same with slots, we move on to play a new slot.

I think it is random, not knowing how long to go with some extra spins just makes you calculate. But its still random, even choosing a different game is also difficult to work with. Simply get used to the fact that winning some more is useful for other types of games like investing in poker tournaments not waiting for those exponential gains there. I had sone experience with that, however it all depends on micromanagement. You should definitely use your bankroll with flow planning. But its fun to get those big wins, imo, and then use them to buy in the next day in a big poker event. Good luck in any case, I have already started feeling some micromanagement need because of this!

Yes, it motivates me to continue playing. Sometimes, when I see potential, I may spend more than I planned, but these are exceptional cases. Usually, if I see that I am not far off, I am prepared to spend more than my limit allows.
