    Article on RTG

    Real Time Gaming

    Source

    RTG have been beset with problematic licensees from the start - their name is synonymous with headaches and heartaches for a great many people, players, portal owners and industry-observers alike. A lot of the blame can be apportioned to RTG themselves with their seemingly free-and-easy approach to licensing out the software to inappropriate clients, those without sufficient financial backing or the necessary knowledge and experience to operate successfully in the online casino business. In the early years, rarely a day went by without a problem with an RTG casino being reported to the online gambling community via one of the portal forums, ranging from physical closure of the casino without warning leaving a stack of creditors, to the frequent bonus-related problems, usually caused by over-generous promotion campaigns that cause the casino to panic retrospectively at the prospect of paying out too much, resulting in players being held to rules and regulations that were not in place when they signed up for the promotion in question. It would be impossible to list here even the major issues that we've seen over the years, several of which have been protracted and bloody.

    The software itself is lithe, light and whippy, weighing as little as five or six megabytes, and again you can chose the games you want to download without any "force-feeding"; like Cryptologic, there are some quality games, both blackjack-variant and video poker. A unique characteristic of RTG is that the individual casinos have some control over certain aspects of the software: they can set the number of decks in the blackjack games from one to eight, they can adjust the paytables on the video poker machines (a luxury some licensees have been known to abuse) and they can set the "percentage payout" on the slots. This has sometimes led to player speculation that that licensees have control over the actual functioning (or malfunctioning) of the casino's Random Number Generator. This is unlikely, and at best speculation - I've played an awful lot of RTG table and video poker games and I'm perfectly happy with the overall results.


    It states they could randomly change the RTP on the slots without having to request a change via the software provider. Who started that rumor here they had to request a change anyhow? I'd like to read the regulation that states that.

    I once noticed a pay out change while playing at a RTG site with "Let it Ride" I spoke with a CR and I was told to sign out and back in and sure enough it was back to normal. I would believe there's even more control then this article is saying.

    4 of a kind, I don't know where you have been getting all of these articles from lately that you have been copying and posting here but someone needs to tell ya bro that what you are doing is simply article theft.

    If you are going to copy and post others hard work here, the least you can do is give them a linkback to the original source article!

    That just happens to be an article that you swiped from Caruso's site there...not cool bro!

    It is in fact copyright infringement whether the site says so or not...when that content is original to that particular site.

    You just copy the domain address in the address bar of your browser and paste it here, hold down the left mouse button and swipe backwards in the address bar until it all turns blue and then right cick on copy.

    Or you can just simply left click once in the address bar and it will automatically highlight that link and then you can copy it.

    Hiya: I really am asking this from a neutral point of view. If RTG is so bad, then why does the Wizard of Oddsz say they are the best, and went so far as to get rid of all the Casino's he was endorsing, and only keep BoDog, a RTG Casino? Why is there a link at the bottom of this website to his web site, if he is promoting a, "Suspect" brand of software?

    Yes, Bodog made some changes recently, but until then, they had the same RTG setup as everyone else. I mean if, "Gone Gambling" started promoting Casino's, or Software, that was in the rogue pit here, i doupt that their link would remain on the bottom of this website?

    I am just asking, nothing else.
