RTG and Odds On going for the big $$$

[The Watchdog]

Is in it sad to realize that Playtech was not Publicly traded one year ago??

Now RTG and Odds On are the only ones left.

How good are they? Would the become the new big guys in the Industry?
Are they planning on major software upgrades for the following months?
Don't you think this guys could be behind developers from Crytpo, MG and Playtech??

As far as I konw RTG is not as good as the ones backing off and Odds On left me a bad mouth taste after English Harbour major problems.

The fact is most US players will be looking for decent operations with these softwares... exciting times to come.

RTG has too many glitches but every once in a while you can hit a decent one. I played Robin Hood again today and this makes about the 50th, yes 50th time (in the last few months) I hit the bonus round and never made it to the next level as I used to before.

They have done something to this game just as they did to the other one when no free spins were given...and they are trying to hide it by changing the play on different games...thinking we don't know any different. If they keep this up, I will quit playing RTG's altogether knowing they are truly cheats in my heart to do this to these games arbitrarily.

Be careful playing these casinos...even knowing they allow US players..that makes them all the worse for trying to sneak in and change the play on these games, which in my opinion they are after the last few months play.

The English Harbour group is owned by a PLC, quoted in London.

I noticed the same thing on ronin. I can NEVER get the 25 free spins for last two months. Always the 3 spins or the 5 spins. I dont know if its just me,
or the same with everyone else.

I have been playing the RTG casinos for about six weeks. They have changed dramatically within that time. 49er Casino which was my fav I can't hit a feature on anything! VIP Casino I had a good run then it just went cold. I have tried Club USA which I am playing in the Slot Junkies touney. Got one good hit out of that one.

No clue what is going on but all of my favs are as tight as can be now. I would love to hear from some RTG casino managers to find out what is going on! Cleopatra won't hit a feature period!

I am ashamed to say I have done the worst thing in my opinion one can do with online gambling. I have been chasing my losses figuring this was a fluke. Well it isn't in my opinion. The RTG casinos have tightened the purse strings! After all US players are now at their mercy.

I have also noticed that RTG slot machines are getting very tight with bonus rounds. I am going to stop playing at RTG sites for awhile. Way too frustrating!

I don't believe this is a very well-informed article. They were right about one thing, and that was that Odds On had a bad reputation for being unresponsive to players - example: Forty Plus Casino if you check the archives here at Casinomeister.

As the thelawnet observes, Odds On, which had closer links to EH group than it would admit, was part of the deal when Leisure and Gaming plc took over EH (if you check Casinomeister News archives you will find the full details on the various L&G acquisitions)

Odds On became Vegas Technologies under the overall L&G group.

More recently, following the American debacle, L&G sold off its US-facing business for a dollar. That included EH, and presumably Vegas Technologies in the sale to a private company called Stockdale founded by the ex-CEO of L&G Alistair Assheton.

Whilst it has potential, and has introduced several new games this year I honestly doubt that you could at present class Vegas T in the same category as RTG which has been around for some time and has a long list of licensees. You certainly wouldn't put it in the MGS or Cryptologic or even Playtech league.

Vegas T, assuming Stockdale wants to branch out beyond its own subsidiaries could pick up business by following the same model as RTG...but as many experts have observed, there are still many American developments ahead of the industry and for the forseeable future it is going to be an area for the bold and adventurous.

I also blew 2 grande this month trying to chase losses and nada.
All on RTG in two casinos playing almost daily. Its pretty bad when most of that was on nickle poker and still no hits! In two months of nearly daily play not even one 5oak on joker, nothing good at all( The ONLY game I could win anything at was pick-m poker with the ocasional 4oak and only on nickles. I use to have at least one cash out a week, have not made anything to cash out in two months. They can say everything is ok until they are blue, but I know its not. Not when I play daily.

I tried a casino tonight that has the same software as hype and was very impressed. I think I found my new format although not much variety, but at least I was winning for the first time in a LONG time.

If your interested in a kind of a short diary of my experience in an RTG, go look at my "FYI on I bet you bet" thread I had a good run with that one

...Now RTG and Odds On are the only ones left....

Don't forget that MGS is a private company as well.
