MG Casino slots - keyboard

Of course everyone knows that you can press the ENTER key on your keyboard instead of clicking with the mouse on the spin button, but I just found out (by accident) that if you hit the space bar it bets max bet and then spins. A nifty timesaving feature for those of us who want to throw away our money even faster!

Unfortunately, this is a not so nice option for me, who has a cat who likes to blow my money on slots while I'm AFK taking a potty break...

The best shortcut key on MG casinos is the little key marked "esc" in the top left corner of the keyboard.

This would NOT thrill me as I rarely bet max bet on any game at MG. Thanks for the head's up. Does anyone know if this is described anywhere? Seems like a possible trap for the unwary, or those who multitask.

Does anyone here already knew the shortcuts and were using them too? I always thought it was an only-mouse casino till I pressed Esc twice by accident and the casino shut down without warning

It would be nice if you could turn this feature off and lock it if it's not something you use, it's a bit too easy to hit the space bar accidentally or if you have a cat like Mousey's who wanders around gambling while you're not in the room. I use the enter key or spacebar when playing MG tournaments (when I'm always betting max) I thought they both worked the same until I did it while playing for real. Luckily I realized it fairly quickly when I noticed my balance was dropping $4 a spin! It makes a $25 deposit go pretty quickly I can tell you....although I'd have been pretty happy about it if I'd hit something.
