Work ethic

Never be under the illusion that extracting a regular income from slot machines is easy, because for all but a select few, it is damn near impossible. Rarely do people have the mental discipline to succeed, let alone persevere for any prolonged period of time to continue that success.

If you are neither willing nor prepared to do your homework and develop a strategy, then you should seek your entertainment elsewhere.

If through one or a series of sessions you wish to come out ahead, the golden rule of business applies here just as it would anywhere else – plan your work and work your plan.

Always remember that winning on a regular basis is hard work, both physically and mentally. The first step to achieving a solid work ethic is by implementing the following characteristics into your play:

1. Before spending money at a casino, collect as much information as you can about it and spend time surveying what is happening on the slot room floor.

2. Follow a strategy (you will find some of the more popular of these at the end). Think about time allocation and your bankroll. Just like protocol and record keeping, they are all necessary facets of your work plan.

3. Always stick to the types of slots you know. Do not be lured by the flashing lights and graphics and sounds of other machines.

4. Remember you can never be sure of how much you will win at any given session. What you can however anticipate is that you will most likely win more than you lose if you stick to your plan.

5. Keep records. Any serious player should make a point of accurately diarising all of their slot sessions. They should list not just their wins and losses, but the different playing conditions encountered and how they reacted to them. They will find this information invaluable when determining their playing strategies for future sessions.

It will also help in keeping check on their finances. Without a record, it is easy for a player to lose track of their financial situation. In time, recollections can become distorted. An accurate record of events will counter any points that the player may be unsure of. In the life of a Slot player, there will be times of depression and self-doubt. A notebook can help remind a player of past successes thereby leaving them confident and eager to embark upon their next session.

Of course, it is just as likely that the notebook will show them just how much they have really lost and how futile playing slot machines is for most people.
