  1. Yo dude, it was a quite a few years ago now that my mum & sister went to Vegas (they've got zero interest in gambling yet went anyway lol) but they went absolutely mental over the outlet shopping in a town called Laughlin, which was apparently close by.

    If you're going with anyone who loves cheap clothes & shoes shopping, it could be worth checking it still exists and has got all the outlets open, as my mum & sis did get some incredible bargains.

     

    Enjoy the trip anyway dude & hope you win Massive!

    Please read my post carefully. Seems you don't get. We are not talking about RTP.  I played PnG slots with normal RTP (94-96%).  We are talking about that PnG slots just physically CAN NOT pay what they promise as a max win.  That is the issue.  Please review my examples again.  Here is 1 more:

     

    The sword and the grail. There is a message that 10000x is a max win. Then we go to the paytable and see that line of top symbol(kings) is 25x. With the max multi, which is 100x - we get 2500x.  Not even close to 10000x.

     

    Yo dude, i understand what you're saying, and you're right that on most PnG games you can't max win in 1 spin like on Pragmatic, etc.

     

    From my understanding, it is as you alluded to earlier, to get max win on PnG you do literally have to hit whatever the max line payout is on EVERY spin of a standard bonus!

     

    Alot of them, if you break down how many spins are in a standard bonus, then it'll often be that many spins multiplied by max line payout which equals the total max win amount advertised on intro screen.

     

    I.e. Book of Dead is 5,000x which equates to getting 10 spins of full line Rich for 500x - i agree it sounds ludicrous too, but that is generally how the maths of most of their advertised max wins works out, and the rare time I've ever seen replays of a payout over 1000x on PnG, that's what it does, it just repeats whatever the same max payout line is in the following spins.

     

    This is also why i don't think you ever see many PnG max win videos, because the odds of 10 spins independently generating max line payouts is inherently going to be higher than just 1 spin needing to do it.

    On one hand you're saying a 100x bonus buy is the same as doing 100 spins and on the other hand you'r saying how difficult it is to get the super bonus on San Quentin.

    And that is exactly the point. If I were to trigger that super bonus on San Quention naturally (more chance of winning the lottery probably) and it goes for 10,000x the stake, that is something proud to be shown off.

    A super buy bonus on San Quention and then winning the same amount is not the same.

    I actually think both @luugius and @Slotplayer are correct in what they're saying, and the fact they are seemingly opposite opinions just highlights the paradoxical nature of this topic;

     

    FIrstly, with the actual replay video of the bonus itself, essentially we're all just watching the same animation, and it's the same animation it would be however that bonus was triggered. But then if people just wanted to watch the animations, developers with admin access or people playing on free/demo play could easily show us loads of max win replays, yet we all know how boring that would be.

     

    And this is because secondly, in my opinion it's about more than just the animation - it's often more about the story behind it: my favourite big wins videos personally are often the ones where it's won on final few spins, or by accident, or after it's been a rollercoaster ride, etc - anything which elevates the replay above just being an animation playback.

     

    It is true that bonus buys are shortcuts, but they're not guaranteed either - if you've spent all night getting rinsed on bonus buys and then 1 finally hits big, then that is a story which makes it watchable. Same as if you get lucky with max win on 1st bonus buy of the day, that's then a story which makes the video more watchable too. Also if the bonus does something funny or wierd, etc then again it's still worth posting for laughs however it triggered. In that sense it's not too different to spinning in, although i do myself feel base spinning is still most admirable way to win a big one. And certainly watching bonus buys without a story behind them is alot more boring.

     

    Personally i think posters adding abit more context & description about each bonus replay would work better, and would help to stop them all just becoming identikit animations.

    A little update to this. 
    I have been playing this again on smaller stakes to see what happens, and this issue is far greater than I first though. It happens a lot that the game changes the number you actually chose in the bonus game just as the game is finished. Last time I wrote it was because I should have won 70x, but only got payed 5x on a different outcome than I did chose. 

    Yesterday the opposite happended. In "Dice Battle" I chose Blue, and Gold won 500x. But then I saw I godt paid 500x, and also checked history that once again had changed my chosen outcome after round finished. I could read in chat many who chose Gold god paid 8x for Blue instead. But this time the mistake went in my favor. 

    Today I played with a very low stake, and on Lucky Drops this happens all the time. I just chose number 5 that should have paid 5x, but after I checked history and was paid 13x for number 1 instead. 

    And another crazy thing happened today. There was a round were it landed on Lucky Drops, the host alsp called it, but then the dice just started to roll again. The host was as surprised as the players, but they never gave that bonus back and just pretended like everything is normal. 

    How can this game still be available when it is not reliable at all? This is just an error in the game as I just won 500x when I should have won 8x, but at the same time a lot of players that should have won 500x got paid 8x. 

    And no one at support will answer and just checks game history and says that everything is ok. 

    Yo dude, I'm only guessing but going from what you say, i think it's actually just a lag/connection issue - it doesn't sound like a software bug, it sounds more like your client is confirming your choice but it's not being sent to their server in time, and if the game gets no response from player then it just auto-picks colour/dice number to play bonus under.

     

    All your examples match the same, but that gold 500x mistake in your favour especially is a classic example of players thinking their choice has registered when in actual fact the server didn't get their choice and is auto-picking for them instead. If your game history showed your original choice with a random incorrect multi applied, then it would be a bug, but since the history shows the random choice with it's correct in-game multi applied then it means you're just auto-picking without realising.

     

    I'm surprised live chat hasn't mentioned the old 'clear cache, clear cookies ' spiel, as normally that's their 1 single answer to every single technical problem anyway lol , but doing this may help.

    Also, try running any gameshows on the 'Low' video quality, as often streaming in their 'High' HD setting causes the stream to lag which also affects the time window available to players to make a selection - the countdown timer on screen may show 5 seconds left, but if it's lagged then at their server end the 5 seconds has already happened and you're considered non-response.

    And if clearing your device end doesn't work, then it probably just means your casinos servers are crap at handling high volume traffic and maybe try playing elsewhere.

    Or if you're playing through a VPN, this would also explain it too, as routing a HD stream through VPN can be notoriously laggy.

    Hampe left for Sweden and will never return!!

    Jokes aside, we're both back tonight :D  It's been a few volatile months and honestly it's getting stressful for both of us. Let's hope for some really good sessions soon.

    We appreciate everything you guys do, and at least you're showing us the realistic side of gambling; it's just a shame the realistic side usually sucks!

     

    Here's hoping your fortune starts on an upward curve asap - Hampus has been a great addition to the stream imo, and any people trolling him because the streams gambling luck has gone south is undeserved; he's a great guy and fun part of the team. Positive support can bring positive results.

     

    Hope there's a Max Win with your name on it soon!

    Hi all , just a quick question to the community . In March next year my GameStop comes to the 5 year end . I did it due to playing roulette but didn’t realise it would cancel all my sports betting too. 

    my question is if you was me would you keep all your original accounts and limit yourself or self exclude all casinos and keep just sports betting apps such as bet 365 and sky bet (sports only )

    I would tend to agree with @crazyrightmeow that it's best not to restart any of them full stop.

    Although the way i read your post (and excuse me if I'm incorrect dude) it sounded more like you possibly may have self-banned on an impulsive whim to stop the losses, and it's all been just an inconvenience rather than an actual lifesaver - but either way, being impulsive doesn't apply well to gambling and could easily be how you ended up with a roulette headache in the first place. And if GamStop was an actual lifesaver, then definitely don't restart.

     

    I think it's admirable that you realised it needed to stop & you intelligently took steps to do so, even if it did inadvertently ban sports betting too. But be aware, since you've been gone nothings changed in casino land; it's still mostly poor returns, dead spins, jumping balls, low rtp & grinding frustration - you've honestly not been missing out on much at all, and the rabbit hole is also still just as easy to fall down.

     

     

    Re. Sports betting, as i appreciate this can be totally different to casino play, then as long as you're making actual proper bets and not just just scatter-gun gambling, the only 1 option i would recommend is asking any close friends/family with accounts already to place bets for you - as long as you always PayPal them upfront first & they place it all for you on their device so you're not then able to start browsing the casino tabs afterwards, it can work fine.

    If you don't have anyone like this, then i would say just accept your betting days are over - any other work around is probably just gonna lead you back to roulette and why bother wasting another load of time & money to find out what you already know. Plus, you're probably richer from not gambling these past years anyway! I'll wish you all the best dude!

    Yes m8 you are right, I should have been using UK casinos, since they stopped bonus buys and stopped auto spins because UK players basically have no chance with these european ones. I actually asked Videoslots if the RTP was less for UK players, and they replied and told me it is the same for everyone across the board. It can't be true actually it's impossible ! 

    Tbh, I'm actually getting bored of slots as a UK pkayer - the most annoying thing is loads of games still have the Autoplay button visible but it just doesn't work, so you get the amazing pleasure of looking at it while tapping the end of your finger to death! Yet, you go on Crazy Time, Monopoly, DC, etc, which are literally live slot machines, and they all still have an Autoplay option that works!!

     

    It did surprise me how strict they made the UK rules, as normally the Government is happy to keep creaming tax & party donations, etc off industries like this - tbf though, the one good thing it has done for UK players is alot more players are now aware of what bad value gambling looks like & more players are checking things like RTP.

    @me_utube Yes those bad casinos you put I have not played in years i closed them down not long after i opened them, I also won't touch casinos who hold for 48hrs that's a no-no lol

    Mr Green I have closed, William Hill I have found fair I have been with them for years, just think they could be better on up to date game selections, I closed down Bet365, Betway, Betfred and virgin years ago lol, I think I will re-open Virgin though see if they have improved, they can go on my re-open list as I feel they won't be so biased against players 

    I like Party Casino big thumbs up 

    Big selection of games, you actually hit bonuses, no ripping off the customers with those daft battles and pittance Friday returns, and no messing with withdrawals they don't go missing like other sites always blaming paypal cough cough (videoslots)

    What would you reccomend for a UK player do you know of any decent new casinos ?

    Yo dude, personally i only use William Hill too; like you say mainly just because I can't be bothered doing all the sign-up stuff elsewhere & WH been decent to me too overall, though i agree they got limited selection & site is also getting more laggier for me nowadays.

    My housemate plays alot through Coral, and they're definitely both trusted & straight forward from his dealings - their site seems to work good & looks impressive and he gets offered alot more freebies & bonuses than i do on WH & from what I've seen game selection looks good. He does also use Ladbrokes but their site looks awful & games selection seems limited too - again though, set-up & withdrawal with them works smoothly. Betfair casino he sometimes uses as well, and they look cool too, though I'm not sure about their membership level thing if that affects casino players.

     

    Otherwise you're right, staying with the established UK brands is the best bet - it does limit choice but at least you know you're gonna get your withdrawals!

  9. One i spotted while browsing Beverley races today, in the 15:27, Talented is currently priced at 125/1 which is way higher than all the others.

     

    I can't really seem to see why, as it's a Fillies Maiden Stakes so none are previous winners, in short furlong sprints anything can happen if people mess up the start, the favourites look ok though nothing special, it's going to be Soft possibly even Heavy ground so upsets become alot more likely, and most importantly Talented is in stall 1 and the short courses here are listed as some of the most consistent for low stall draw bias. Is 10 runners, 3 places paid, so for value even on the E/W payout alone I've done £1 E/W - hope it turns out to be a good spot as 125/1 price seems baffling to me!

    First time hearing Birthday Thursday lol. But I think birthday is always a lucky day. I remember betting same day as my birthday, won something while playing in Stake and Ole777, not much but at least I won something. Maybe the game is not your lucky game guys, not your birthdays. lol

    I agree dude - always worth buying a scratchcard on your birthday!

     

    I'm often lucky on my birthday, and i did go through a strange spate of guaranteed poker MTT wins every birthday for awhile too - i even won $50 in a 1200 player freeroll Omaha Hi/Lo8, which i barely ever played, and when i won the final hand HU with 2nd i didn't even understand how my hand beat his lol! 

  11. Yo dude, there's no actual way to direct turn them into them into cash - you can't send them to bank account or PayPal, etc sadly. There are giftcard reselling sites online that will take a cut to sell it for you, though i personally wouldn't trust them as this particular market is notorious for scam sites, and for £20 it's not worth the hassle of registration on any that might be genuine anyway.

     

    I'm not 100% sure on how it stands with all casinos accepting Google Pay for deposits, though as far as I'm aware, any that do will still all generally only process withdrawals back to the last deposit source - i could easily be wrong, though I don't think feeding them through a casino works either.

     

    The best bet I'd recommend is either sell them to a friend or advertise them for free on Gumtree, Facebook Marketplace, etc at a slightly reduced price - I've sold unwanted giftcards & vouchers before - put both on for £15/£16 and they'll probably be snapped up. Otherwise, the next best option is just gift them again as a present for someone else's next birthday or Christmas and that saves you money on a future present!

    Fuuucckkkkkkk, so close, again, after Taco vd Hoorn 2nd by an inch missing out on 2,5k now Pedersen is 2nd missing out on again 2,5k.

    Oh man, that was close! Was so hoping he'd have grabbed the win, though it's still a brilliant identification by yourself & thanks again for the selection - the fluidity of these type of events is what keeps them exciting at least! The inches will fall in your favour next time!

    It's sad, what I don't get is how this can go on for year after year, Twitch really don't seem bothered at all by bots.

    Tbh, i think Twitch have got a better Stake Contract than all the crypto streamers out there! 

     

    The shit they let all the Roobet streamers get away with when that first popped was ridiculous - Roobet were basically using Twitch as an extension of their Marketing Department - i wouldn't be surprised if Twitch have just started asking for their piece of the pie somehow.
