    limits

    I agree, i have lost more then my fair share at Inter.I play at a few other casino's and they can't understand why Inter would do this,i guess every one has there own way of doing things,and it seems Inter's might be setting limits on there machines.I would hope that is not the case, while i have received a couple of emails back from them, they still have not answered my question what did i hit on the last spin to warrant the game locking up? Remember this has happened twice now.

    Ok guys, let's not speculate too much about happened. Intercasino does have flags on every game where a big win will trigger a block from that account - if you all recall Intercasino had a problem a few years back with a malfunction which cost them over a million bucks.

    They paid out every cent. But now their software has flags to prevent a reoccurrence.

    I wouldn't read too much into this - just wait for Intercasino to respond and I'm reasonably sure you'll be happy with the result.

    WindowPain, there's very rarely anything negative posted about Intercasino at this forum that isn't quickly squashed by its loyal following which number quite a few among this crowd, so don't be surprised if you don't get too many favorable responses to your issue at hand. I find it very interesting that one would be banned from playing a slot machine given the fact that they require no skill or decision making from the user. Just press the Spin button and away you go. What's the difference if you press spin or I press spin? I am allowed to do it but you are not? The odds are already set in place. The casino cannot lose on slots. Either someone is overly supersticious at the casino, and believes that you have some kind of "Midas Touch" on the slots, or they think that you're cheating... but if they thought you were cheating you would have been booted already. So which is it? Also, you were allowed to play after your first two large wins until it locked up during a certain spin which could have very likely been another jackpot hit because one has to wonder why the block would step in and shut you down at that precise moment. Why didn't they stop you in between spins? Or before your session started? Or any other time except DURING play? Why is Intercasino being silent on this thread?

    I really enjoy Intercasinos CS and they always have been very responsive.

    I too had my account locked for putting in the wrong acct #/password 3 times..and had to re-install the casino and re register it to get it back up and running. Could this have been your problem? Sometimes it gets locked by our own doing is my thoughts.
    Today is the Tomorrow, you thought about Yesterday...so live as IT IS your last tomorrow!

    That's a bit unfair, Tim - and one which puts you on a tightrope.

    I am the one defending Intercasino. I *don't* play at Intercasino, nor have I ever made any significant money with them as an affiliate. They did win the Charity Auction which raised $111K for the tsunami, however.

    That being said - what you've just done is tantamount to accusing me of being biased... and I think you know that cannot be true.

    The truth will come out when it comes out. No one has anything to hide. But if this thread continues down this dangerous slippery path without good reason I will lock it right up and possibly send some of you to join Casinomeister wherever the heck he is...

    My comments weren't aimed at you Spear, and I'm sorry if it came across that way, but we all know that certain casinos are allowed more Grace here than others, and deservedly so because they've pretty much earned it. This is a very unusual circumstance from a very reputable casino. Not that they don't have the right to deny a player access to their casino at all, but to ban someone from a certain type of slot machine is quite out of the ordinary given the nature of slots being a brainless game based on pure luck and nothing else. I guess more than anything else, I'm just waiting to hear what reasons the casino has for placing a stop on his slot play on certain types of machines. If they're just being overly-supersticious about this player being too lucky, then that's fine. It's their right, but it is kind of funny. Intercasino has a great name and I highly doubt this thread will hurt them one iota, but to say the least, this thread has really sparked my interest. Even as Slotster says, he's hit huge on their slots before without any repercussions, and I can recall his screenshots, so there must be more to this than what we have heard from the player. After all, we've only heard his side of the story.

    "Recommended Casinos", which I think are what you are referring to, get what they get because they've earned it.

    "Rogue Casinos", another category of casinos here, get what they get because they've earned it.

    Not much difference in the way we treat them, if you ask me!

    Now - nothing is being squashed, or squelched, or even squeezed here by anyone but me. Intercasino will have to explain this issue just as any other casino would - the only difference here is that I have given some thoughts as to what the likely answer is because I have a good idea of how things work. And I could still be wrong... LOL...

    The fact that Slotster is not experiencing the same problem would ordinarily be a strange sign, except that I have already said that a big win on ANY game will cause that game to be locked up by the software for that particular account. So W|nd0wPa|n's hitting a big one on any game will not cause the game to lock up for anyone BUT him.

    Like I said - let's keep it calm in here. It's a little bit too early to be speculating on what is happening, it's only been a few days.

    Let me take this a bit further.

    In Las Vegas, it is not unusual for a machine to lock up after a big win. For example, if someone hits a jackpot, the machine locks up - the attendant comes over and reads the data, calls someone else to verify the data, then the machine is unlocked and the person paid. Same thing happens with video poker wins over a certain amount.

    What Wagerlogic has done, however, is implement a threshold, if I am not mistaken - not necessarily a single big win, but a cumulative win over a certain amount - which causes the machine to be locked for that account. They will then inspect the data, verify it, then unlock it. The winnings are paid if they do not see any evidence of malfunction or fraud.

    The reason Wagerlogic did this is because there was an issue one time where the software had a flaw in some machine or other - I'll dig it up later - and paid out many, many small wins, I think they were cherry wins. Because of this malfunction, many people obviously played these machines because they kept winning - can't blame them, can you?

    So they are not blaming anyone for anything at all, at the moment - they just want to make sure that something is not amiss.

    Here are some of the links:

    Couple years ago I played at Intercasino's Carribean Poker multiplayer table for fun with 1k bets a hand and was disconected every time I got a flush or better clicking on deal. One time I got a staright flush when I relogon I had something like 126K sitting in my account. I think it's a software glitch. I don't think it's a big deal as long as it's not effecting your balance.
