I’m going all-in on this gamble of a DNews
episode, how is it that casinos keep people gambling, even if they don’t really want to? Hey penny-slotters Trace here for DNews today
diving into the flashy world of gambling. Literally, it’s flashy, there are lights and
sounds and smells, adventures to be had money to be won! But when you’re in a casino, hundreds
of papers and experiments are brought to bear to keep you in their gilded halls. So how
do casinos keep us gambling? increased arousal
A 2010 study in the Journal of Mental Health Addiction found both lights and music created
“increased arousal” effects. And a new study in the Journal of Neuroscience looked at the
brains of rats finding increased arousal increases dopamine reception — one of our brain’s powerful
reward chemicals. Feeling good means we spend more, so casinos cash in on dopamine at every
turn. Numerous studies say more arousal means more gambling, and faster music paired with
flashing lights makes people bet more quickly and spend more money! But that’s not all…
colored lights Marketers know the color red makes people
more aroused too. And studies show red light makes people more gambley than blue light!
Thus, casinos put red everywhere! The Journal of Gambling Studies revealed a bunch of other
insights into gambling behavior as well. Things like “the illusion of control,” the idea that
if you’re pushing a button or pulling a lever, you have control over the situation… and
if the risk seems low and you get an immediate response to your bet, you’ll bet more, and
then more. free drinks/design
Some casinos even offer free drinks, great, right? For the casino. Alcohol lowers your
inhibitions and increases expectations, further increasing play.
architecture Even the architecture has evolved. I find
this particularly fascinating. Originally casinos focused on “gaming design:” all the
slot machines and tables were lined up, all together in a maze-like configuration. It
was thought that this design would make us step up and gamble at every turn. But based
on scientific studies, casino design has been radically redefined. New casinos are based
on the idea of “adult playgrounds” with high-ceilings and expansive, opulent, easy-to-navigate spaces;
the Bellagio is the quintessential example. Old-style casinos famously avoid windows and
clocks to help gamblers lose their sense of place and time, but “playground” casinos make
people feel happy and comfortable, with sunshine, high-ceilings and art; keeping us gambling,
having fun, and spending that money. A study published in the journal Environment
& Behavior proved that this is working. People like the playground design, especially women.
In the compact “gaming design” women felt crowded by others around them, if they were
too close to other people they’d gamble less. The adult playground design mitigates these
problems, and women now gamble even more. Slots, for example, are historically very
popular with women, and revenue increased over 30 percent since 1970. It turns out,
adding windows, bright colors, and a resort feel, has a huge payoff for the House. The
research showed, gamblers in a resort playground casino feel more comfortable and are reminded
to have fun constantly. So they do. oxygen
The thing casino’s don’t do, though, is pump in oxygen to give gamblers a modest high.
It’s a myth, dating back decades. What they actually do is pump in scents which keep people
aroused (back to that arousal effect, thing) and according to the scent designer for one
company who does it, AromaSys: refreshing and soothing scents keep people gambling longer.
conclusion In the end, casinos cash in on exploiting
our psychology to the tune of 240 billion dollars a year. They do it with the games,
the decor, the drinks, the smells, assaulting our senses to get us to make it rain in the
desert in Vegas and elsewhere. But what about gambling addiction? Isn’t that
worth considering? Gambling addiction does have a genetic component, meaning if your
mother or father has gambling addiction, you could too! Laci explains how that works here. I don’t really like gambling, I’m just not
taken in by it all… I like wandering the hotels, but I don’t feel the need to pump
quarters into a slot machine. But how you y’all feel? Do you gamble? Have you stopped
to think about why?
Great video until that uneducated Laci feminist came in.
I'm sick been since xmas last year at emperors palace casino south africa I'm soo done with it cudn even get my money back
who see this video on 2017 april?
I kept winning, so I kept playing lol. 3 trips ending in losses have shown me otherwise. It was fun for the few weeks I experimented with it I suppose.
This shit is very addictive. Texting in my casino hotel room right now….
casinos are worse than crooks , you can spot a crook , casinos take your money by having machines set to screw with your mind , pay and take it back , pay and take it back , they keep doing this to make you bet a higher amount with the expectation to win big
Did anyone else get a lottery ad before the vid too? Lmfao.
hahaha… that woman at 3.53 is Laci Green , she is a FEMINIST… hahaha… maybe a lesbian too….. what a loser…hahaha…
The ad for this video was a casino game lmao 😂
Laci green is an abomination.
Any time I start I have a hard time stopping until I've spent far more than I initially intended to spend. I've learned it's best to avoid the casino.
Physocigal things. But the main reason is that players love playing and its relaxing.
recently lost about 4 grand in the space of three months through online live roulette, didn't even have the 4 grand too lose. haven't done it since – trust me do not ever start gambling it can become an addiction with disastrous concequences
I lost everything I ever had gambling. Gambling has semi ruined my life
Came here for a English research paper, was not expecting to see Lacy Green
paypal: [email protected] , skrill: [email protected] , dont have monay for food, thanks to all good people and sorry for this
Last time I put a $20 in a slot machine I got $600 out of it, I walked away and didn't gamble again that whole weekend, because I knew that was exactly what they wanted me to do and I needed the $600.
Casinos are not casinos unless they have hookers and blackjack
Futurerama anyone?
I just wager sports, do research, fade public trends, trap games/matches and manage my bankroll. Won't win millions, but won't live on the street and still get the gambler's high.
And i see a poker ad before the video 😂👌🏽
Just outlaw gambling already…
Shut up Lacey
They don't want you to hangout no more They found out your broke no more Free Buffet no more Free play promotions. Security get that Loser out the way
You can't stick your handout when The Next man Wins … GOOD LUCK ! MERRY XMAS HAPPY NEW YEAR! I'm going to Win Some $$$$
when hit a jackpot of more than what I have been loosing then I will stop lol
Loved your video …. Im a "recovered" gamble addict and I love watching video's like this … thank you with videos like this we remain gamble free
Simply not entertainment if your losing money at such as fast rate with the slim chance of a decent score, and even if you win a large sum then what? You are likely to give it back and much more, wanting an even larger score.
So either way it's a losing proposition.
If I ever visit a casino, I'll only be there to watch with a frown on my face as everyone there grows poorer and poorer as they bet more and more. I wouldn't be surprised if all casinos decided to throw in a few claw machines, too. Claw machines are also rigged.

I just lost 62 dollar in cs go gamble. I never gamble..
thanks for the information. I found it helpful.
Casinos looks usually fancy as heck.
Eh ( ~._~.)
You no longer have to pump quarters in a machine, those days
are long over.
mess with the mind huh? i like that.
oll. casinos fishing for are.. money.casinos is like at rats looking of form how still? ??
I gamble to make a lot of money so I don't have to worry about bills.
to be fair the casinos can use every trick in the book to lure you in and take your money. It's up to you to know the tricks the casinos use and to resist those temptations.
Piss in your pants at the table you get thrown out that's very nice
Casinos and the lottery especially attract poor people who want to escape being broke. And if you don’t win right away do not continue betting ing over and over thinking that you’re “due to hit.” A roulette wheel landing on Red 10 times in a row does not make black any more likely to hit. Still 50-50. The more you gamble the more you are going to lose unless you hit some very rare jackpot. Obviously casinos are businesses and they make money but holy shit they must have fat fat bank accounts. It almost makes you despise them especially when they have their slots tight. But the entitled liberal social justice mindset that the wealthy “owe their fair share” is trash. Many of the rich already pay 30 to 40% in tax! I’m poor and I don’t see rich with jealousy or envy. I’m happy for them and hope that I too can be like them. And casinos chose to be a business and invest and capitalize. Nobody is forcing you to go there and everyone knows that gambling often is a losing proposition since there is statistical edges, or percentages guaranteed as profit for the casino.
Which makes sense why i masterbate alot after i go to a casino..
lost $300 i won on saturday a few days later +300 more…good thing i know when to say when i guess or it could've been worse. It was my second time on a slot machine…those things are really addictive. I need to stay away from them lol.
Nice video except for miss piggy at the end.
chonito
I'm addicted and I hate it
The house doesnt beat you, it gives you a chance to beat yourself
Casinos are evil
W
If you're going to gamble my as well go big or go home. I play the $100 slot machine, I hit 6 jackpots in one night for a whopping 120K.I was awarded 40K in cash and the rest in checks, it changed my life cause I used that money to open a business and the rest of it is all put away, for my future 😛 🙂
It's the devil pure evil
How do they do it!!!!
i like women
All roads, lead to the casino. In many casino's you have to walk through the casino to get to your room, Here is a good video on stealing the casino's ideas for an online business.

I like gaming and the excitement
Those "SENTS" are pheromones like the ones gene edited in the agriculture. Tell them the whole story.
Literally went into a casino to click a few buttons and lose 100$
Seems criminal that casinos are manipulating then exploiting financially people with weak minds. I no longer go to casinos. It’s a losing game
Thumbs down for that ugly nerdy girl at 4:00
I lost 520e on gambling site like rustypot and other csgo sites
I just can't stop i wanna win my money back but i keep always losing and then i see 0 profit then i go all in and lose
Bill Friedman former casino manager disagrees with your view on the Mega Resorts like Bellagio. As of the mid 2000's, no single resort has gotten 10% of its visitors to gamble. Gamblers prefer a confined space, less decor, and plenty of sound effects right in front of them – Vegas Revealed travel channel documentary.
I gamble because I went to the blackjack table with 100 and left with 1500. Let’s just say the high end escorts are what made me keep wanting to go back after that
In Finland, we have slot machines in regular grocery stores, so it’s not surprising that 4% of our population have serious problems with gambling.
For those who dont have self discipline. Please dont go casino. Which majority dont have. (I only play texas poker now)
If you can stick to a limit to go with maybe 50 so if you win 200 leave but always stick to a limit and only bring that it helps you focus and play smart I only play virtual roulette I recommend downloading a roulette app game to help you learn how to play it well
GAMBLE AT YOUR PERIL YOU WILL DESTROY YOUR LIFE AND END UP POOR AND SUICIDAL SO DONT DO IT YOU ONLY MAKE OTHER PEOPLE RICH. STOP ✋. DONT DO IT
Casinos make people loose their mind, Family, money, life. I still can't believe the casinos aren't forbidden
The only thing Casino's want's from you is money, the money you've got on your pockets, purse, home, bank, on your husband or wife, on the university of your kids. The money the bank could give you, the money you could loan. In the middle of this hunting money situation you loose your mind, family, friends, relationships, work. The casino's are the devil, really. I saw a grandmother, beautiful and loving person throw herself from a building by casino's debts.
The biggest type of gambling is not the casinos, it is the stock market. People says, casinos and stock markets are a con job but they don't realized the biggest con man is the government itself.
You forgot to mention…back in the not to distant past..casinos did NOT allow any filming, taking pictures and such inside of the casino. Now they relaxed the rule and allow slot players to make videos of their slot machine play which pop up on the internet. Nowadays everyone and their grandma runs a “slot channel”. This opens the exposure of slot play to a wider range of the population that it normally would not. Today with casinos literally being built in “your back yard” people are more apt to visit their local casino to try their “luck” directly related from the viewing of these videos, vs. downloading an app and playing online. Thanks.
I hate losing so i stop gambling.
How ironic that I got an add for a gambling app at the start of this video!
I lost $400 tonight. I know people have lost more, but I feel awful about it. Never done this bad.
Not only casino addictions but also animal race too.
Never Gamble! Have lost 140K $ in 6months addiction.
this is so bad addiction..i have lost $50..please don't Gamble
im a disciple of shrek, I has come to save you all
Me: so you guys dont feel bad that people destroy their own lives?
Casino owners:

IF YOU PLAY SLOTS, YOU ARE PART OF THE REASON THEY’RE STILL IN BUSINESS!!

Play traditional poker or blackjack. If you study enough you'll be ok. Don't bet high and know when to quit when you're ahead.
