My gf hates the poker/slot machines and keeps interfering with my win rate

Whenever we go out on a date me and my gf will end up at a pub downing beers. After a few drinks she's loose enough for me to mention a slap on the pokies/slot machines without my idea being rejected. I'm an aggressive (alpha) gambler by nature and will always double down to win back any losses.

For example if im down $200 I won't stop there, I will deposit another $100 into a new machine and up the bet. This strategy usually allows me to recover and almost always walk away with a nice profit. However when my gf is with me, she will physically stop me from gambling past a certain point and I never get to win back my losses. It's really getting to me, our last 3 dates im down over 1k because I don't get the opportunity to play the machines for several hours to recover my losses. Also I'm pretty sure her grabbing my wallet and restraining me from depositing cash into the pokies is a form of domestic violence, however I would never want her charged with any crime ofcourse.

I'm starting to think the way we view finances could be a deal breaker for the relationship as she seems happy for me to lose money and walk away from the machines. Anyone else in a similar situation and how did you overcome differences in financial views?

You can't have a win rate on slots. It's mathematically impossible

LMFAO at people who gamble and think they're going to win. If I go into a convenience store there's a line of 5-10 peasants buying lotto tickets. These MFs have the audacity to stand there and scratch them off and if they win a few dollars they immediately use it to buy more lotto tickets holding up the whole line.

It's a fuking mental sickness. Imagine giving away your hard earned money for the one in a billion chance to win more than you pay out. I think I'd rather be hooked on drugs than gambling, at least I'm getting high for my money LMFAO.......

spoken like a true degen gambler. be honest, if this were true, you would be a full time gambler and you would never have to work another day in your life. in reality, you only choose to remember the times you win and forget how many times you've lost.

You can't win at slots op.

They are a negative ev game.

Everytime you put a dollar in you lose regardless of what happens. You should stop playing.

i get one every blue moon for a giggle, but recently saw a degen addict asking the cashier how many tickets were left on each roll and how long ago they were replaced like he had some sort of master strategy to win scratch offs, loled hard

If you want to win, play the lightning link slots and 50 cent bet. There is a chance you'll win the 10k grand.

The only people who win at slots are the one in 10 million that hit one of those mega millions progressive slots or whatever they're called. Mind nuked that people will literally cash out their house so they can go dump it into machines programmed to take more than they pay out.

Srs. They're all digital now. I would love to see the coding on those machines. I bet the programmers laughed their @sses of the whole time they wrote it. Suckers.
