a warning to you all

[sueps]

I have enjoyed playing online for a couple of years however I have decided to call it a day. I really dont want to dishearten any of you. The reason why....I have had a "relationship" with 2 casinos from an accredited well known company whom a lot of you rave about. Since January this year the payout has been appalling, on 2 occasions that I have complained harshly to them they or he has reinstated my deposit.....on the last occasion ...2days ago I managed to hit lines on slots that would have been obviously impossible otherwise,....a 3.60 bet wins 650 0n ladies nite the other occasion I complained I hit all the bonus rounds that would have also been a certain impossibility...I am just bringing up a point for you to ponder on. I do not at all bear a grudge or am going to mention any casino and they matched every 500 a month etc ...but there was no way i stayed for ,long without loss after loss. Also I noticed I only ever triggered significant wins on depositing .......Anyway it has happened too often and with other casinos that I only used this company in the end...only for them to go the same way... I will be saving my 1000 a month now and investing it in less precarious companies... please I beg you not to be offended.... I had fun but not since January....

Thx ...

Good luck in your ventures!

And if anyone else thinks there's a "win switch" (read: rigged), I would advise you to quit as well

[sueps]

I never heard of win switch....haha .... If your only big wins had been on 2 reinstated bonuses SINCE January then I would be advising anyone to tread cautiously.... Like I state I do not hold grudges... For me it was becoming a stressful addiction.... and thats not what I call value for money.

Good Luck to all of you too......

[sueps]

And I also stated I did not want to offend anyone...

Good luck

I too only play at a few selective casinos and my problem is I win but cannot ever find the cashout button when I should, so I have the opposite problem to you in as much as the slots I have played have payed ... bet these casinos just love me LOL...anyway good luck in your future ventures & I wish you all the best.

Maybe a timely reminder of this article here at Casinomeister penned by yours truly:

How To Manage Your Gambling Budget

Hey there, I was becoming concerned with the way the games were played out due to the fact that I would deposit quite a bit, lose it all, then my mom would come over deposit and win! (she doesn't have a computer) I thought I would email the casino and ask them if there is a memory when someone wins; for example; if my mom wins, then would the game reset or change in any way? Here is a portion of the email they sent me. I didn't feel it was necessary to copy the whole email but this is what they told me. And as soon as I received the email and went back to play, I ended up winning! I was curious if the casino could change or reset the games. Here's the quote:

With regards to your query insofar memory is concerned, there is
a
limited amount of history which is kept for purposes of
financial
accounting and play history. The software does not discriminate
against
certain players. Everyone simply plays into the same platform
and its
pure luck insofar slots wins or losses are concerned. Other
games,
example the tables, will require a certain level of skill.


p.s. I dont know if this info is any use to you but it kinda set me straight.

It's just a long winded way of saying the games are completely random.

I am a little suspicious of how this "randomness" is implemented, as I often see far too much "streakiness" in the games, even though long term payouts match the theoretical expectations.
Well, UK Fruit Machines pay the expected long term percentage, but they are rigged as hell, and play according to recent history.

Sometimes when I'm on a "roll" the games start to slow at the last few reels and sort of jump? I think I know what you mean by "streakiness" I'm sure everyone has wondered whether the games can be controlled or not. One time before I asked a casino about this and she said "no, and if we could we wouldn't have the time to do it anyhow" with a little bit of a chuckle. Where I play (mostly) TPG, I have won 5 times in the last 3 weeks. Not huge, but pretty good amounts. The fruit machines are rigged? And do they get away with it? I haven't heard of any casinos getting in trouble for this, only in the rogue section where it says a few have funky software, I would like to find out more about this. Tell me more Vinyl (if you have time) Thanks
