Jammin to Tunes While Gambling…..

Hiya LCB’ers,

Listening to music can have a large impact on how we feel emotionally.  Our emotional state is an important factor in how we gamble. Studies have shown that gamblers that listen to upbeat music tend to take more risks when it comes to gambling than those who listen to mellow music.

I listen to music a lot while I am spinning. But at the same time I have to hear the sound of the slots too! While I crank up the tunes I have to crank up the sound on my laptop to hear the thrill of the game.

When I listen to upbeat dance tunes I do find myself saying….”whats one more deposit” as I dance in my chair! If I am listening to slow tunes I tend to be more conservative when it comes to betting.

Do you listen to music when you gamble and do you think it effects your betting style?

Mostly I have the TV going, and am easily distracted. I'm sure I've listened to music also at the same time but it must not have made a dent if I can't remember it affecting my desire to continue playing.
Phone calls though, I hate them coming in when I am playing.  I am not much good at paying attention, especially if it's bingo and a chat game and the phone rings.  Spoils the whole reason for playing.

Lips.. when good music is playing and you got that happy feeling in your body, your soul... your feet are tapping you're smiling and dancing.. it's worth every penny i spend YES.. it happens everywhere i go.. i'll stay JUST because the music is good.. upbeat music works the best, but if i got that slow groove, what's another 20 eh?

Music definitely effects me. Not so bad to lose when when you're listening to the Supremes.

I think it's a1 bingo that plays "alone again, naturally" (instrumental).  I get all melancholy/sad/lonesome but pretty soon find myself singing along, buying more cards...

BollyBingo has some nice music, they have a player set right into the Bingo Site

I love the music on Alaskan Fishing.  It's very relaxing so I don't specifically listen to my own music whilst spinning.

I like to listen to this song while playing online casinos

Oh, for sure! I play at a casino and simultaneously listen to the radio I set up myself - there's this site called Jango, which lets you select your favorite music and adds it to your player.

So, I could say I'm positively affected by music - when I listen to the radio, I even feel better when losing!

music soothes the soul and tames the wild beast lol
