Bonus play starts off good then.....

your bankroll disappears just when you think your going to make the playthrough winning money. I ALWAYS win in the beginning, and sometimes even continue to win for a while, but as that playthrough counter gets low so does the bankroll. I swear, if playthrough was 10k and I won 15k somehow, someway I still wouldnt make playthrough with a balance. Is it only me?

ive noticed this as well. that's how i can usually tell when i am getting near playthrough without even checking.

Perhaps it might be time to consider playing without a bonus. This way you will be free to cash out when you choose.
What kind of WR have you been tackling?

One idea you might want to consider is splitting your deposit into two. So for example if you normally start with say 100, then try depositing 50 and get your bonus. That way if you lose, you still have the other 50 to play with, without a bonus. Plus you have halved your WR requirement.
Its a good compromise to try out.

I won't play a deposit bonus with a max cashout, and I usually make a smallish deposit so the amount of wagering is reasonable. If a reload or a second go at a bonus is possible, I definitely split up what I intend to play. If I'm lucky, I won't need that second deposit.

I usually find I start out awful, and it just continues that way. If I can get a decent hit, I usually manage the cashout. I try to pick a lower variance game and plug away at small bets. My downfall comes when I have a decent balance and I make bets too big for my bankroll, trying to rush through the WR.

The only times I ever clear a huge WR on Rival or RTG is when I hit a monster, around 1000x bet.
Then its just a matter of grinding out the WR.
Bank Heist, Art Heist and Love & Money are great slots for grinding out a WR.

But I find it extremely hard to hit anything really big lately.
Last time I hit anything over 500x was in August..
Got 3 expanding wilds yesterday, first time ever on Psychedelic Sixties, paid a little less than 300x, reel 4 and 5 were rubbish.

How people manage to still hit anything on whatever slotgame after upping the bet is a total mystery to me, the moment I add an extra coin or 2 the slots always die, freeze to the point of absoluute ZERO.

Maybe this thread was good luck for me ... did max bonus cleared it and still have money. Can someone answer this question for me.. is it the bonus amount they take away, or do they take your bonus plus your original deposit?

I've noticed the same thing to all rtg's i'm playing to.
I start hitting some bonuses and go up, but when i'm close to complete the wagering requipments all goes down down down...
But there were 2 times that i've hit something good inside this downfall lol, so i managed to cashout a little. If you don't hit something to get you up, most probably you will lose before the wagering completes.

Merry xmas to everyone!
