Whenever you enter into the world of
online gaming,
whether you're playing slots on your desktop computer or video poker
at the iPad casino, you want to take advantage of anything that can
give you an edge, especially if you're playing for real money. One
thing that has proven highly effective in keeping people calm and
collected when they play casino games has been the practice of
holding a beloved pet, especially a cat, in one's lap, stroking it
and hearing it purring with pleasure as the reels spin and reveal if
the game is a winner. Casino players are starting to catch on to
something that pet owners have known for years – that having a
beloved pet nearby has a positive effect on our moods and lowers our
levels of stress. So why is that an advantage for playing
online casino games? It won't help you win a jackpot or change your luck in
cards or at the roulette wheel. But if it helps enhance your mood and
lower your level of stress, it will probably lead to better betting
decisions, ensuring that you're not betting from an emotional place,
especially one of negative emotions. And that means you're more
likely to play with a clearer sense of intuition, which is,
essentially, your greatest asset when you're up against the machine
and relying on luck for victory. And if the only effect it has is in
the area of mood enhancement, even that is a benefit.
