Jackpot Capital is a great online casino with about 300 games, great promotions, safe banking and a lot more. We also publish a few articles every month on our blog. In this blog entry, we would like to address the common 'why did I do that' moment.
This phenomenon occurs in everyday life and in casino gaming. We will touch on both aspects of it with emphasis on casino gaming.
We all experience moments like this. We make a mistake, and we realize that we could have avoided the mistake, and we are befuddled and baffled as to why we made the mistake when we could have avoided it.
Have you ever gone shopping with a list and bought a lot more of a product than you need because it was “on sale”? Have you ever taken a product and put it down while you looked at another product and then forgotten to put the first product in your cart?
Have you ever forgotten where you parked your car?
A lot of people get a tattoo and then wonder 'why did I do that?' The tattoo might be about something or someone that they don’t want on their body forever. It might be in a place they wish they had not gotten a tattoo there. It could be a tattoo they don’t want to introduce to their parents.
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas is a 20th century (now 21st century) cliché of all manner of things that make one wonder 'why did I do that?' There is, however, one thing that happens in Vegas that does not stay in Vegas: a marriage license.
This 'why did I do that' moment needs no further explanation.
There are so many 'why did I do that' moments surrounding the things we eat and the things we overeat. These days about half of the free world is on a diet and that beautiful piece of cake is calling to us and we eat it and then we wonder, 'why did I do that?'
If a person overeats just a little, they get tired and perhaps they take a short nap. But if a person overeats a lot, they end up not feeling good at all! Very few people ask themselves the why did I do that question over salad, arugula, or broccoli. They do ask it about meat and potatoes and gravy and so on!
Better to not ask that question about pizza and have leftover pizza for breakfast!
Anyone who has ever experienced road rage will either still feel vindicated years later (probably after many more road rage moments) or they wonder what possessed them to rage at the objectively unrageable.
The road leads to many 'why etc' moments. Why did I not stop for gas when I could have? Why did I not listen to the GPS direction service? Why did I insist on driving way above the speed limit because “there were no cops around?”

The first thing to remember at all times is that a lot of people ask themselves THE question after a long weekend at a land-based casino. We have spoken about this many times and all gamers here at Jackpot Capital know the mantra and yet many do go once in a while with friends to a land-based casino or to Vegas.
A lot of people ask themselves WHY because they truly don’t know WHY. There are certainly several reasons why online casino gamers do fall for the hype and go to a land-based casino for a long weekend. The main reason is exactly the hype.
The bells and whistles and strobe lights are all part of the hype. The free alcohol which translates into slightly tipsy players making betting and game-play mistakes, is also part of the hype. Free meals add to the hype. These meals make people tired and leads them to more betting and playing mistakes.
Then there are the craps and roulette tables where people whoop and holler as the dice are rolling and the wheel is spinning.
After a long weekend at a land-based casino, many people do ask themselves why they did it. The emptiness in their pocketbook explains their regret.
The one and only way to avoid THE question in casino gaming is to play at a reputable online casino such as Jackpot Capital. One reason online casinos are better for this purpose is because you don’t have to pay to get to us. The short walk from the kitchen to the living room is free of charge.
At an online casino, you can play every day if you want to. So, there is no reason to play for many hours like people at land-based casinos do. It is easy to budget your time and money.
You can play all of our games over time instead of a very few games. You never have to wait and you never have to relinquish a seat to go to the bathroom.
With mobile, you can curl up on the sofa to play. You can curl up with Mr or Ms Significant Other to play. Some land-based casinos now offer mobile gaming in the hotel. This makes travelling to the casino even less understandable.
Slots at Jackpot Capital have a general return to player rate of 96-97%. At most land-based casinos, the return to player rate is 90% or less.
Jackpot Capital pays 3-2 for a blackjack while many land-based casinos pay only 6-5.
Jackpot Capital pays 9-6 for a full house and a flush in video poker while many land-based casinos pay only 8-5 or the execrable 7-5.
We run many promotions that include deposit bonuses. Land-based casinos cannot offer such bonuses because of the wagering requirement. Gamers at Jackpot Capital can play through the wagering requirement over time while at a land-based casino, a player would have to complete the requirement in a couple of days.
The bottom line is that in the modern casino gaming environment, online casino gaming is far superior to playing at a land-based casino. You still have to be vigilant to play smart at an online casino, but it is so much easier to play smart at an online casino than at a land-based casino.
Gaming at Jackpot Capital Casino is a great step in the direction of never having to ask yourself THE question!
