RTG's - things that make you go HMMM?

[anniemac]

I deposited at an RTG, won't tell the name but it wasn't CW, took a bonus and started playing. Bonus was 150% and had a very large playthrough. Started playing $1 to $1.25 per spin. Games where hitting and at one time I was up to over $300. I made playthrough and then it happened. Not another bonus. Period. Games just shut down. It was like a switch had been turned off. I was hitting $50+ bonus rounds like crazy before but the minute I made playthrough, zip, zero, nada.

If I hadn't been so pissed, I would have laughed. The casinos will tell you they have no control, all random. I think that is complete BS. Either the casino has control or RTG has control. I played for hours and then started again this am. Not like I didn't have a very good grasp of what was hitting and what was not.

Just does not compute for me.

Hey annie im president of that club lol. Did same put in withdrawal and then when they removed the bonus they put funds back in account so i withdrew again. Went out came home played well lets see 150 not one bonus round i hit one 10 dollar line thats it. And they say they dont have a turn off switch huh.

Sounds so familiar, same happened to me too, finished play-thru twice and lost 1000 after.

I think I know what casino you're talking about...

I rarely, take bonuses there any longer as it happened way to many times.

You are right it is as if a switch is turned off. Plus it is rediculous to have to wager 1500.00 on a $25.00 deposit and $50.00 bonus and then have to give back the $50.00 if you are lucky enough to end up with anything after the playthrough.

The other poster is correct. No matter what is left at meeting playthrough CASH IT OUT.

So that's why we should demand an implementation of "Randomness Control" feature in every casino, and in every game! Annie, do you know what's the difference between you and me, when we are playing? The difference is that I have never had a feeling like I was cheated or something like that, playing in casinos with "RC" option (and I'm talking not only about BV, there are 3 casinos with RC in the Net). I always know that I can easily check it, and even more - I can affect on the result by shifting numbers on Roulette (or Slots) or changing card order on Card Games.

Slotmonster,

I don't know anything about a "Randomness Control" feature. All I know is what I have seen after hours of play. Since I am in the US, my options for a good accredited casino are limited.

However, since I am not the only one who has experienced this 'phenomenon',
I don't think I am just imagining it.

I noticed another thing on some RTGs, as soon as you wager certain amount on that casino ( for me it was 20K or a bit more), the slots will "die" for you regardless, whether you made a cash out or not.
Well, i can't really say if this is permanent or not because I don't have infinite cash to deposit and find out, but so far this is what happening to me after multiple deposits.

The only view I would like to add to this discussion is, if the games keep hitting, casinos wouldn't make any money. These are games of chance, some RTG slots are very streaky ie they may pay alot over a short period then nothing for a while. I would hazard a guess that this link to PT being reached is nothing more than coincidental with a hint of annoyance and embarrassment that you didn't take your winnings when you should have done...ie you were a little greedy
