    Who has never hit big?

    In the last 2 years of gambling online, (been online gambling longer, but regularly for the last 2 years) I have never cashed out for $1,000 or more.

    This is odd isn't it?

    Granted I probably don't deposit as much as most or play as much, but I do deposit at least $100 a week. (sometimes more, sometimes less)

    I did have a balance of $5,000 one time, but of course blew it.

    Am I the only one here? It seems like it to me.


    Anyone else?

    In the year that I have been depositing at one regular casino, I have not cashed out on any of my deposits. I never got my balance up to anything worthwhile withdrawing. I'm a low roller by the way so I'm not sure what kind of difference that would make compared to high rollers.
    I have, however, withdrew from bonuses and it always was for the same amount $200.
    It would be nice to be able to withdraw from your deposits where you have no max cashouts and can get a half decent balance to throw in the withdrawal section.
    You are not alone, lol.
    Just an afterthought...when a person does *win*, are they really winning anything, or are they just getting some of their money back. And on the other hand, when someone does win, will they put most of it back in hence negating the winning factor yet again?
    The only way I can truly say I won, is when I hit a nice, big jackpot for a couple of thousand dollars.

    ditto

    Ive had a few decent cashouts at the poker. Never at casino games. I got up to about £360 one time but managed to blow it before I got to the cashier. I honestly cant remember cashing out from any casino. I think I'll start this months rigged thread.

    Im a min stakes player but it would be a nice lift if I could reach the cashier one day.

    I swear I thought I would be the only one. I'm serious.

    I am of course a low roller too. But it just seems strange that I can never get a half way decent cash out. ALWAYS when I play at a new casino I would win 200-300 and then nothing after that. (it's happening right now at a casino that I started playing at 3-4 months ago) I will win something at first, then bang, nothing, never again.

    I think Bodog is the only exception to the above. But now they are taking their sweet time paying.

    Ive read somewhere about someone that won 70K over a $8 deposits, I thin it was at Inet.....that's a winner (I dont believe it though)
    Still Ive won 25K 15K 10K 7500 in the last 2 years and Im a BIG Time loser.
    Note that I usually(95% of the time) play 20c/$1 bet.
    When I did try more defensive game like blackjack for example....even worse, although Ive always used best and correct strategy from best known sites like WoO.
    Im sure that our "luck" changes on the casinos needs.
    They made money they will make you win a little...they need money...forget about it.All of em.
    Of course this are JUST my opinions.

    You'd be surprised how many are or have been going through the same thing. Some of us are just more verbal about it.

    I probably would wager a bigger bet if I could only get enough in my balance to do so. We may be low rollers but in my own opinion, we are just as important to the casinos because we keep giving them our money, lol.

    The most I was ever able to cash out was $1000 once at 3Dice. I keep trying though.

    I have cashed $100 several times just to say I cashed out. then gave it back.

    I have cashed $500 twice in 5 years. I play about $50 a week, so I am way behind.

    I guess its entertaining to flirt with the chance of a big win, but they are fleeting.

    I win regularly at the local brick and mortars so that should tell me to take the drive instead of just tossing it to the faceless internet places who comp like its a pain to part with their profits

    It may surprise some that I have made very few big cash-outs in my 7-year career, despite the fact I have made profit roughly 7 from every 8 months over that period.

    I think the trouble is if you aim for a big cash-out (e.g. $500+ from a $100 deposit), you are destined to fail at least 95% of the time. Most of my profits have come from taking a bonus, meeting the WR & cashing out relatively small gains. Lots of small profits add up to a tidy sum over the course of a year!
    For example, on several occasions I have taken my Intercasino $100 monthly, just managed to meet the WR and cashed out only $5 - $10 profit. The way I look at it is that is MUCH better than losing and after all, there'll be another $100 bonus to play with next month...
    Smile, it may never happen...

    KasinoKing, I think you have the right idea. But I also believe that it is the gambler in us that says "The next spin will be the big one. Just one more time." And then we lose our shirts. If I play anymore online, I am going to try and use your strategy. When I get up a little, get out. Maybe I can at least make a $5 profit instead of buy a Ferrari for somebody in Curacao.
