Cashino and gaming machines at all locations

Hello, can someone help me deal with this issue, because it looks pretty strange not only from my side. 

The question arose: why can't I win more, not only a large amount, but also by betting 10 ls, I lose when at that time, next to me, a person wins 10 times in a row, and I don't get to the right amount at all, as if someone is deliberately interfening with me? And where can I view my logs? It's not about bad luck at all, it's been going on for a week

a thing to remember is that Skill Gaming region games are not games of chance. There is no luck involved in the scripting of these games. They are only a more complex version of Tic-Tac-Toe, in which every game when played optimally results in a draw, a determinable outcome.  The only way to win at Tic-Tac-Toe is when the other player makes a mistake or the other player lets you win. A scripted player (the game operator) never makes a mistake

now some people will tell you that you are playing against all the other players simultaneously (a networked game of skill).  That a game is networked doesn't change the fact that the outcome is determinable.  When all players, play optimally every outcome is a draw.  We don't win when the game is a draw. We win when the game operator (the scripted player) lets us win

gambling isn't allowed in SL, all other games should be skill games.  That last might be the cause, if not, report the machine/region/owner

this happens everywhere, I have already bet 250 linden in the casino once and lost, and after that the lags started, the Internet was stable, the lags were on the car, the numbers hung up, and one digit at a rate of 25-50 began to fall out that is, the chance of winning by 10 is 10 times you bet and the minimum chance of winning the bet from 25-50 is zero . this began to happen after betting on 250 linden, there was no such thing before, how much I played , so I want to look at my logs

Skilled gaming regions are set up to MAKE money.  The end.

yes. The owner has to pay the rent and expenses and make a profit just like any other business

the big difference is that with skill games the owner is never gambling themselves, unlike a casino owner. There is zero risk for the skill game operator

 

on a point that OP raised:   "I lose when at that time, next to me, a person wins 10 times in a row, and I don't get to the right amount at all, as if someone is deliberately interfening with me"

that lucky person is one of two things. 

1) they are a new player to the game, Game operators (of all design) let new players win. This encourages the new players to keep on sticking money in the machine

or 2) they are a shill.  A shill (often a bot) which gives the impression that if I (shill) can win heaps then so can you. Winning shills give the impression that is possible to win heaps, which encourages people to stick more money into the machine

These are not games of chance. They are "skill games" which by definition depend more on the player's skill than on random chance. If you lose consistently, then you might consider that you don't know how to play the game! This is not a disparaging comment; I lose at these games ALL the time, myself.

Regardless, my advice is: don't go to SL casinos. If you do choose to go, don't go with the idea you're going to make any money. Go to have fun, and don't spend any more than you can afford to lose.

I dont believe all machine game , even in real world.

we need sim that can act as third person to accomodate player vs player  such as youand  your friend , going play a chess or bowling , and you both can put bet with your L . and the sim take 5℅ as fee.

when I explore the casino sim, I sense... deception, the host voice with female to attraction, and  I watch they play and they all cooperate to suck your L.

there are plenty of game venues now, where if we wanted to we can make private bets on the outcomes with our friends. And people do this already, bet on all sorts of things in SL between themselves

a commercial operation (at 5%) needs to attract a turnover of $US6,900 a month to pay the tier. It could be doable. Probably the thing that may impact on strangers coming to find other strangers to play with/against is what assurance does a player have that the stranger they are playing against isn't a shill for the business, a shill with a back door into the mechanics of the game
