Vegas Regal and apparent sanctions - good idea?

[Emmeline]

Vegas Regal offers free chips on a regular basis, as long as you don't win too much anyway.
I have made some deposits, played the offered freebies cashed out 2-3 of them and reversed my withdrawals immediately without any further luck.
The last freebie winning last week was one to much - no freebie in the cashier yesterday. Nothing strange about that fact - it's a business decision, they want me deposit more instead of course. I don't deposit that much and I'm playing the freebies with a certain strategy, which I'm sure they can easily see.
This is no new subject here I presume ? Still my point is there's an apparent link between winning and sanctions, and I certainly question if that is generally a good idea. Naturally other casinos have similar strategies but you never get to expect something that is then taken away if you're lucky enough to cash-out, not in my experience anyway.
They could just as well have sent an e-mail saying Congratulations on your winnings, unfortunately as a result of your good luck casino management have decided not to offer any more free bonuses until further notice.
Why would any casino (that actually pays people) risk that winners may feel like losers in any kind of way, well I guess it pays off in the end.

I am not quite sure what you are getting at. Is it that if they do not give you a freebie, you think they have sanctioned against you?

My understanding of free chips is that you "earn them" by your deposits at the casino. They are a "reward" for your continued play. They are not something that is necessary for the casino to give you. Especially if you can not deposit much.

Nope it's not about a "missing" free chip, and certainly not a complaint against Vegas Regal.
I was trying to make it a question about general strategies, not successfully I guess I agree of course, freebies is something you earn by continous deposits or it's used as an incentive to sign-up or log-in and later deposit.
Generally it's the same old discussion about Rivals (not specifically Vegas Regal) banning people from different kind of bonuses. There's a number of different bonuses available but if you happen to win you may find yourself bonus banned simply for that reason.
That's about it and this thread will be a short one cause people have heard it all before. I'm tired of it myself already.

rival casinos are short-sighted. there is no doubt about that. while they are free to offer different or no bonuses to specific players the way they handle such issues gives a feeling of 'unwantedness' to them and its no wonder players are leaving by droves. i used to deposit regularly at vegas regal but not anymore mainly due to the fact that i believe the rtp is much worse than it used to be.they still give me 2-3 freebies every week but i havent cashed out for a long time so in case i do i doubt whether they will honour it.

Silly girl, your post was not boring. I just didn't "get" what you were getting at.

I also think Rival are short sighted, as Chuchu pointed out. They have an awful reputaation for making players feel unwanted. One day they will either get it, or go broke.

Snap.

and also the WR's became stupid, 1x bonus max cashout, WR = 100x and must have double the bonus balance to cashout a thing. That and a seemingly worse RTP ratio meant very little chance imo.

Thank you all, sorry for the delayed reply.
Feeling unwanted yes exactly, sums it up very well.
