Everyone has experienced those times when the cards just won’t fall
your way. No matter where you place your bets, sometimes they just never
seem to pay off. For days at a time you may try your luck at a slot
game aiming to
hit a progressive jackpot,
only to leave the game one evening and find out the next morning that
it’s been hit by someone else. Like good luck streaks, bad luck streaks
are a part of any and every gambler’s experiences. Though naturally
tough to withstand, we’ve got a few tips on how to break a bad luck
streak and make it through a prolonged drought until good fortune once
again smiles upon you.
1. Take a break
One losing gaming session after another can exact a high
psychological toll on you and make you feel as though “I’m never going
to win”. That is of course a completely false assumption – your lucky
day may arrive at any given moment that the stars align.
Nonetheless, sometimes a short break from online casino gaming is in
order to help you clear your head and ward away the negative thoughts.
Once you’ve stepped away for a little while, it’ll make coming back to
try your luck again with a fresh start that much more enjoyable.
2. Try new games
Perhaps you’ve gotten unlucky because you’ve been playing the same
games for too long? Of course we all have our favorites we love to play
but sometimes
the hot streak rests with other casino games.
If you’ve always stuck to slots, maybe give table games a try for the
first time? If you only play progressive jackpot games, why not try some
classic slots or arcade games for a change? Just like in land-based
casinos some players have superstitions about “lucky machines”, it’s
entirely possible that you may have a lucky run ahead of you but you’ve
just got to be playing the “right” game at the right time.
3. Reduce your bet size
It’s possible you may feel that you’re running really badly, but it’s
only because your bets are too high for your bankroll. Lowering your
wagers will naturally make your funds last longer and limit the swings
you experience (reduce your variance). Even if you continue to get
unlucky, your losses won’t be as severe and you’ll be able to turn them
around that much more quickly once lady luck visits you again.
4. Play only when you can concentrate fully and not be distracted
It’s possible that some of the losses you’ve experienced have been as
a result of not fully concentrating on the games. One way to minimize
(and even eliminate) these types of losses is to only play when you’re
100% free to concentrate on your play. Multitasking is indeed an
admirable skill, but not when it might cost you money. Instead of
rushing to get a few minutes of gameplay in during your lunch break, why
not wait until you get home to sit down, chill out, and have a nice
long, relaxed and focused gaming session. This might be just the way to
break your bad luck streak!
5. Capitalize on deposit bonuses make the most of offers available to you
The most obvious way to turn your luck around is by taking advantage of
excellent bonus offers and promotions
we have that literally stuff your account with extra money. Losing some
money hurts a lot less when you’ve still got that much more in your
account to keep playing with and try to reverse the tide.
