I have a question on the video slots do you stop the spin or do you let it spin ? I like to stop it but I let it run for two spins then I stop it for 5 times then I let it spin for two times without stopping and I repeat the prosses . what's your Strat?

As I basically only play with free spins in any online casino I just let it spin until those free spins are no more in my account.

It's hard to call it a strategy :)
Pressing a button doesn't really fit the term "strategy". However, I never stop the spin, I let all the reels spin without my intervention. If luck is on my side today, it will be on my side anyway.

I don't stop. In most cases I don't stop. Sometimes when I see that the result is minimal, I can stop a few times to maybe somehow influence the trend. But mostly I don't stop.

It sounds like a lot of superstition there ;):ROFLMAO: even if it's not true.
In the rare times when I play slots (Free spins only), I do not intervene. I don't think it'll change anything to the outcome, but I could be wrong.

Never alter the spin, as it would make me feel like playing god. Let the video slot deity do its thing.

Theoretically, the way you play, the way you press the button, can affect your game and, accordingly, the result. But we don't know exactly how. And therefore, in essence, whether you stop the drum or not, does not matter, because it is practically impossible to determine the impact of this action on your result :)

While some can be stopped, I let them run their course. Last week I won $20 and lost it all between yesterday and today. I think I'm going to stop playing them.

“To stop or not to stop, that is the question”… When I used to “spin,” I liked to stop; you get the false impression that, somehow, you can control the outcome. But I went through some disappointments and often asked myself: why did I stop? Why didn’t I let the machine stop on its own? Would I have won? But that’s like Sami said, maybe just superstition... Good luck with the spins and in life!

Well, I see how letting it stop on its own or you can blame yourself.
But if I get the first two the same, I will try to stop it on a match.
That's just the ones that will let you and that have three reels.
I also hit the button the instant I see it missed a few times and then wait
a minute like it's a new person lol.

Imam pitanje u vezi video slotova, zaustavljate li okretanje ili ga pustite da se vrti? Volim ga zaustaviti, ali pustim ga da se vrti dva puta, zatim ga zaustavim 5 puta, pa ga pustim da se vrti dva puta bez zaustavljanja i ponavljam postupak. Koji je vaš strateg?
I let it spin, when it opens the bonus game, then I put the automatic 50 spins on the quick stop.

After a big loss, some players keep firing trying to win it back.
Others step away before emotions take over.
The hardest skill in poker isn’t bluffing.
It’s knowing when your mindset is no longer helping your decisions.
Discipline saves more bankrolls than aggression ever will.

It seems like people ITT don't realise that the outcome of any spin on electronic slot machines is determined the instant you hit the play button, whether you stop it or not, the outcome is the same.

I think that everything should go its own way, and I don't think it's appropriate to make my own adjustments to such important matters :)
I don't stop anything, I leave everything as it is.

The slot does not remember previous spins, and each new launch is completely independent from the previous one.
What you see is confirmation bias; you focus on the successes you see and miss all the failures happening around you.

It depends on the moment and intuition. Sometimes I stop, but it's rare, isolated cases.

I don't stop the spins on the slots. It seems to me that this in no way affects the final result, which in 9 cases out of 10 ends with me losing money :)

I usually let the reels spin on their own, but sometimes I'll hit the stop button just because I'm impatient and want to see the result faster. From everything I've read, though, the outcome is already determined when the spin starts, so stopping the reels doesn't change your chances of winning.
Your pattern is interesting—two normal spins, then five stopped spins, then repeat. A lot of players develop routines like that because it makes the session more engaging. Personally, I see it as a preference rather than a strategy, since the slot's RNG doesn't know whether you're stopping the reels or not.
My main focus is setting a bankroll and sticking to it. The spin button I press; the bankroll I can control. The results, not so much!"
