In a casino, when you win money it triggers a chemical reaction in your brain to release dopamine.. It's your brains reward system but it can be abused by drugs, gambling.. Social situations?

When you win at first in a casino you keep going because of positive association aka 'beginners luck' or the dealers way of roping you in. So when you lose after a winning streak some people are affected psychology and have to win it back because they won 3/4 times and they think the odds are on their side.

So when you answer a specific user's post they are kind, compliment your response and heart it also.. They do this three times but when you answer them the fourth time they don't reply to or heart your answer.

Do you try to win his or her attention back? Does the concept hurt a bit?

Honesty is important to my research, so I'm trusting people here. I've got an added poll for anonymity.. Thank you.

The reason I stayed at the casino so long is because I went there to make a night of it, not to turn around and go home soon as I won something.
Is that not because they make concept fun? I mean depending on the casino they often have people hired to encourage you to keep betting, keep the drinks flowing and the requirement of good manners from blackjack, roulette dealers etc.

Sure, I wouldn't have gone if it wasn't entertaining.
Don't you think the entertainment is fake though? In the way that you're just another wallet and really all they care about is that you keep the money flowing. They don't know or care about your financial situation lol. Please excuse me, I'm going a bit off topic here.

It's okay, I believe they care about me about as much as I care about them, you win some you lose some.
