hmm, some of seagull's posts and can see and think they have some correctness in them, some obv dont.
i think concerning advertising on tv etc, there should be more of a health warning about it, instead of just "win big now at.....", especially i noticed programs like the jeremy kyle show and many daytime programs do have casino/bingo sponsors, but it only advertises the good like winning big money and not the more than likely to happen losses. Someone who has never gambled before could be sucked in like they could be innocently watching these shows and see a casino/bingo sponsor and decide to have a few £'s try and possily lead to later problems (for example if they havent gambled before and play, then end up winning as suggested in research done, the mind almost thinks its easy to win after that and that person may be tempted to play again and again and potentially be stuck "chasing losses" and it may become a problem).
A lot of places do feel dry from time to time but before i gave up i did have some okish payouts as well as some poor poor poor losing streaks (i remember towarsd the end of me gambling i put £20 in to play, that lasted around a minute on about 6 hands of BJ, each time i was getting 20 dealer would have BJ or 21, if i had 21 dealer would have BJ, if i had BJ then the dealer would have BJ also lol...was annoying)
sometimes you get lucky, others you dont, i certainly remember the other day, since i have quit online gambling i decided to go to the arcade and play on 1 of the 10p a spin £5 jackpot digital fruit machines, 1st off won about £8, then came back later, won £6, then went back later, won £9 but as it was 82% payout i was certain i could of won another few £'s, so i played £10, nothing, played another £3 feeling certain i must hit the jackpot...nope... £20 later and i still hit nothing good lol
as to the OP, i know the feeling of that, an off few £ every week gambling online certainly builds up by the end of the month, hated checking bank statements lol
That's it the whole thing lures the poor, with promises of big wins, and beating the credit crunch. Look at the casino adverts. Casinos, target the poor, get them hooked. It's wrong. I have lost all my money, pursueing that dream.
I am not funky anyway, I'm an unlikable character who hasn't got much longer to live, and I doubt there will be anyone at my funeral, and I don't care.
My experience playing these online casinos has been torture and killed my soul. It is a trap, and if before I die I can help prevent other's like myself falling into that hell, I will do my best... I really do believe online casinos are rigged... you want proof? How do I prove this, if I post my experiences, mathematicians will say I need to play a million hands/spins, and then anything is possible within the realms of probability, so they get away with it. Only way anyone will believe it is rigged, is if they experience what I've experienced this past month, or if an ex-employer spills the beans...
Was that part necessary other than to belittle me.
Prohibiting online play by US players did little to stop such play, as casinos operate outside the jurisdiction of the US.
By making online play illegal, it pretty much gives casinos a right to do whatever they want.
When play is legal, casinos are regulated, and players have redress to governing bodies and courts for when they think things are not on the up-and-up.
I am sorry that your experience has been so bad funky, and that your health is failing. But for me in my illness, online play has given me a "night out" without having to leave my own home.
Anger and fear lead to the darkside. Don't give in to hate. I think I have just given myself a dose of force lightening. That's it for me though, I just can't go through this again. Gambling has been a horrible experience for me. I really wish I had never started. I am stupid, but it's too late now, the damage is done.
I have cooled off, but I still believe the games are rigged. It angers me that they get away with it, but if people want to play then that's up to them.
If it is a bad idea to make online casinos illegal, due to the problem going underground and no longer being regulated, I believe health warnings should be put on their websites, clearly displayed for all players to see, like on the side of cigarette packets.
Like, Warning: Gambling can lead to addiction.
The odds are against you, winners are paid by many losers.
Gambling can lead to serious financial ruin and debt.
Gambling can split up families.
Gambling can lead to mental illness.
I hate seeing adverts that hint you can beat the credit crunch by taking a bonus and playing in their casino, it isn't right, and an obvious lure to the poor. I think maybe campaigning for health warnings is a start, will go in this direction. May the force be with me, and not the darkside I hope.
.bye.
Nothing personal, Funky, but....are you, by chance, related to Lojo?
Seriously, you sound like a soul crying out for help. I sincerely hope you find it. Keep your chin up, Mate, things can get better.
Hiya. I hear this complaint every once in a while. I so wish it was true. Thats right, i wish it were ture. It would be a "charters" dream come true.The Rigged Number Generator shows signs of learning behavour and quickly learns your betting patterns and makes you lose very fast.
$1 bets, with a $2 increase, betting a 7 number pattern. "area of the wheel, area of the layout, last 7 #s to hit, the 7 numbers that have hit the most, or a pre determined 7 # pick. Play and lose to establish pattern.
"NOW BET ANYTHING ELSE EXCEPT THOSE 7 NUMBERS". = Ka Ching......
If what you are betting is not hiting, and you are losing, then bet something else..............it is not rocket science..................![]()

Funky Seagull.You bring up the concerns and fears that people all across the globe have on gambling and in business.People that I have talked too, want online gambling to be like a real casino that a person can physically enter.
That means the games have a real shoe that starts and ends.
I haven't played on Red 32 casino, but I would expect this casino to be similar to the Hoyle casino game way of play or much better than it.
What is "fairness" and what is "random" will always be disputed on earth.
You're right Funky Seagull, the math can mislead people.There are a lot of manipulations being done online against the customer, that if the same treatment happened at a grocery store, there would be riots.
Part of this problem is on your shoulders gambling on games of chance with bad odds to begin with.Part of it could exist within the casino/software company involved.
A baccarat shoe that is shuffled after every hand is different than a baccarat shoe that must come to a complete end <which takes 75-85 hands to finish> to finish a physical shoe off.
The same problems are affecting physical slots and video poker machines in North America.
I think it's great that Casinomeister is keeping tabs on these people who see casino gambling as a money grab, and not making it fair, like a sporting competition that we watch on television.
I agree, the random number generator must produce a fair result, or it can become like "match fixing" in sports.
Match fixing in sports betting can benefit and hurt a gambler, depending on what team the gambler supported.Juventus has been known for this in the past.
Look at the different vigorish that is applied to different games of chance and see how "fairness" is represented.
You're probably better off going to a physical casino in the U.K to play or to quit and learn how to invest in the market or things that can add happiness to your life.
These gambling issues will not being going away, because these issues affect how the G20 do business with each other.Bad business dealings, can lead countries into war.
I know you mean well Funky Seagull and I can read the compassion from your posts.
Find trustworthy people in your life that can help you to become rich and happy.
Best wishes to you and thank you for the warning.
The truth will come out someday.This money has to go somewhere, and more tracking of players and on people will happen in the future.
