This term is nasty since it is possible to accidentally hit the gamble button, just as it is possible to hit "max bet" by accident.
This is a deliberate ploy by MG, since with the older games such as Thunderstruck, it is possible to disable the gamble function altogether, but this is NOT now possible on the newer slots. This is a BACKWARD development, so has to have been a deliberate choice by MG to remove such "responsible gambling" options from the lobby.
Most Video Poker games also allow the disabling of the gamble feature.
I do not normally use the gamble feature, however, I have often clicked it by accident, as I have the max bet button. This is often due to software problems where I move my mouse, but the movement is not properly reflected on screen in a timely manner, and I find my click has not gone where intended because I have overcompensated for the error in displaying the cursor.
This has similarities with Casino Rewards, who voided winnings due to Autoplay, which is a legitimate lobby function.
The gamble feature has never counted for
WR, since it is an option after the bet has been resolved, but before it has been paid out, so only the initial stake has been wagered.
I have seen no complaints so far where Purple-Lounge have confiscated winnings for gambling a small slots win, so maybe this is one of their discretionary terms, as I doubt many players have obeyed it 100%
It is possible to manipulate the rules with Video Poker though, bet all on one deal of 50 or 100 hand
VP, you are bound to get back something, and then double or quadruple it through the gamble feature, then meet
WR on slots. Odd though, that this is supposedly only a problem at Purple-Lounge, it works at ALL MG casinos.
