Thumbs up Big Win at Casino Tropez

YAY! I'm absolutely chuffed! I have been playing at Casino Tropez for about 12 months now, and having been bumped up to VIP status, I get great support from my VIP Host (major kudos, Rick Hunter !), and I have been getting good bonuses, despite the fact that I don't usually bet big. When I bet on things like Wall Street and Fruitmania, the best I usually win is around $200 or so, not quite enough to cash out. I since rethought my strategy, and started playing Diamond Valley at $5 a spin. AWESOME game, good wins, and now I can actually get my account up enough to cashout.

Now here's where it gets really good... I quickly got a good win, $1,000 , so I think to myself, maybe I should try some of the other games, so I start to get a little greedy. Well, major payoff, because the next thing, I get into the safe in Safecracker at $15 per spin! I won $2,550 on that, and so I go to play Keno, figuring my luck will not hold out too much longer, so I better play it safe. In Keno, I hit 8 out of 9 at $2 per spin! $9,400 !! So, I cashed out.

The cashout took 4 days to process, and because I have read about all these people who get screwed over by the casinos who find ways to not pay people, I am pretty skeptical about getting paid. After 4 days, the cashouts dropped off the system, and I panicked, but they told me this happens. Then I check my bank account two days later (I requested a wire transfer) and it was all there! I actually got paid by an online casino!!!! miracle!!!!

And then I play a bit more with the balance I left in there, and got really greedy and played A Night Out, a game I love, at $50 per spin (!!!!!) and got free spins (20 x 10 multiplier). I got some good wins in those free spins.

Anyway, this is what amazes me about the whole experience:

1. They never called me to offer inducements to reverse the withdrawal, like they did on my last cashout with them (that was only a small amount, and I told them no, I would not reverse it... they never asked again)

2. My VIP host, Rick Hunter, was actually STOKED that I won. He even said for me to NOT even think about cancelling my withdrawal! And his boss, Mike C, was even happier for me! I thought casinos were supposed to be annoyed when you win! lol

3. The money arrived, quickly, within the time frame they said it would.

Anyway, to the staff at Casino Tropez, who have really looked after me, before and after my win, thanks, guys. You have even put up with my temper tantrums when I don't win, and given me bonuses when I have asked for them. Especially Rick Hunter, who has gone out of his way to get me a good comp point rate and has bumped me up to Silver VIP and actually is happy for me winning.

See? There are some good casinos out there, guys. My recommendation is that you deal with one casino over a long period of time and build up some loyalty, as they will really look after you.

Here are some screenshots of a couple of my wins:
