All that info and you miss out how many numbers you can continue play.

yepthe less continue play options there are the more level the playing field imo.

I think its great that Wayne has organised this special tourney. Thank you.

It's a shame that, one again, it will be won by those with the deepest pockets who will happily spend $500 to win $1000. A great example is someone here who spent $3500 to win $5000 in a tournament a few months back. It's just crazy.

I would be glad to pay $25 a shot if there were no continues and only a couple of rebuys - at least then my chances are just as good as anyone else's....but I'm not going to spend $20-30 when I have practically zero chance of a return.

Until casinos adopt the poker style of tournament the high rollers will always have a huge advantage.

Sorry, but that's how many players feel.

one alternative would be to choose a slot of extreme high variance for the tourney. rebuys/continues are no surefire recipes for success in this instance.

I agree with you..

Hi Guys,

The tournament prizes are guaranteed and had to have re-buys and continues to make it viable. We have attempted to keep it to a minimum and had to settle on these amounts as the tournament is run over 2 weeks. There are 10 continues per re-buy.

@ Nifty29 I totally agree with you, there is an advantage if you choose to re-buy etc. But hey its gambling, I say do it the way you want to and see what happens. You never know if its your lucky day

Keep the PM's coming guys and good luck!

Cheers,
Wayne

I cant get Red Flush or La Vida to spin properly, not in tourneymode, not in normal play.
Support does not have a clue.
Tried everything I could think of and finally gave up.

So you're not alone.

They prefer to ignore the issue, so I just uninstalled in the end.
I want my games smooth and fast, not glitchy with stuttering reels and constant freeze-ups.
I could not play a single spin without the reels freezing for a few seconds.

I am also one of those people who don't think it's fair that players who have lots of money can just keep re-buying and win if they want to. It's fine to make it have a few rebuys but come on- at least have a decent cap that normal people can afford to keep playing. It takes all the fun out of it in my opinion to let players spend thousands. I know the casino needs to make a profit but more players would probably be using the rebuy option if they felt they had a fighting chance against high rollers.
