Good going Croup!!![]()
It goes to show that it pays to be choosy when it comes to selecting casinos - not a drip of perspiration dripped from wondering if you'll be paid or not.
Kudos to 32red for reaffirming what we already know![]()

Absolutely. I'll take any signup bonus going (you need a bonus when playing something as volatile as VP) but I always return to the major players when I'm depositing serious money:It goes to show that it pays to be choosy when it comes to selecting casinos
32red
Ladbrokes
William Hill
Peak Entertainment
That's about the only places I play, and I'm never in the slightest bit worried about getting paid - 2x£20k royals in what amounts to about 1 hour play made me double check which casino I was at, but when I confirmed it was 32red I was ok![]()
Still waiting to drool over those screenshots![]()

Ok, here's the story with pics
£27k just gone into my bank from Ladbrokes win previous week. £20k put aside for car and a bit more for spending money so I'm playing the rest for another big hit.
Funds almost wiped out (£150 remaining) and I hit this life saver:

Under an hour later and this beauty comes along dealt pat, but still didn't hit the kicker
It's another 2 1/2 hours (and a few cashouts) before the next major hit

I swap to the laptop and play a bit while watching TV downstairs (isn't wireless a wonderfull thing) - it's past my bedtime so I check with CS about a cashout query and then decide to have one last quick session while I smoke a fag. I hit the autoplay and BANG!!! this gets dealt pat on the first hand - amazing!

Up again, and my cashouts have all been processed (no messing around with 48 reverse period with 32red, usualy done in a couple of hours - this is a HUGE plus in my book). 1/2 hour into play and here comes the 2nd biggy

Some more quads finished up the day with a £70k cashout. My final run started with £3k, everytime I hit a quad to take me over my current high total I would cashout half the profit and increase my stake by 1/2.
I got that £3k up to just over £10k (aces took me over the £10k barrier) and I cashed out the full winnings from the £4k aces and was looking forward to some more winnings with my nice big £6k bankroll. Well, that bankroll went FAST, and I think I only hit 1 small quad with it - shows you the danger of DDB VP
Hope you guys enjoyed the little story - and I hope you all get a chance to see how it feels, hopefully someday soon![]()
All I can say is... holy $#!TWhat a beautiful run!
** Well done croup, I know I'm late... but still!! Have you thought on how you going to spend the cash, and I would also like to ask... do you think on 'average' you are now in a profit or even with the spend over 'theoretically' 2 years? Just wondering**

I'm saving for a house (would prefer not to have a morgage) so I guess it will be thrown in with my other savings.
Since I've been playing VP (about 4 years) I would say I'm winning, although I don't have precise stats. I've gone thru a few million hands and I'm sure I'm still in profit (although I'm not sure I could have said that 3 weeks ago)
I've been lucky enough to get more than my share of royals, I would say i'm hitting about every 30k hands instead of 40k - it's easy to say that with no stats, but I think thats a very good estimate. Also, about 50% of the time when I hit a royal I hit a 2nd within a couple of days, this means the 2nd is hit when I've increased my stake - I've been thru a couple of long periods without royals but it's great when you hit that 2nd (or 3rd sometimes) with your bets increased.
I like to up the stakes when I'm running hot, this can bust you out quick but also can prove to be amazingly profitable. I remember taking a $50+$50 first deposit up to almost $10k once, I was lucky enough to nail a $1k royal and that gave me the armunition to cause the casino some serious damage
I preach a lot about playing the odds and taking small edges but when it boils down to it, I'm a gambler.
I personaly think the only way you will ever beat a game with a house edge is to buyin small and if you're lucky start to up your stakes (whilst you constantly squiral away winnings). You might not beat a house edge game long term, but the long term might be longer than your lifetime, so some gamblers do beat house edge games.
I remember a computer simulation I did once for roulette. I had 37 players putting 1 chip/spin on 1 number, each player had his own number - I then ran the simulation until all players were losing. Even thought the casino would be winning 1 chip every spin with these conditions, it sometimes took hudreds of thousands of spins before every player was losing.
Volitility is the major factor when playing a house edge game - the lotto might be a 50% house edge game but you only need to win it once to be a lifetime winning gambler![]()
I really don't understand why you trust in Ladbrokes.Originally Posted by ukcroupier
I play only Bj and i think is a total waste of time and money over there.
A question: 32red accept visa electron, how can i make a withdrawl by means of visa electron?
Is it possible to cash money directly on the card??
Thanks a lot
