How Casinos Trick You Into Gambling More

How Casinos Trick You Into Gambling More

Posted on August 16, 2019 by Sydney Nguyen


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?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
