The suspicious part of me sometimes give the feeling these kind of stories are made up for promotion to attract high rollers

Yeah it's like watching an athlete smash a world record unfortunately these days your thoughts immediately deflect to foul play instead of wow. The other thing is are these punters legitimately checked out?I mean casinos now are asking the ordinary everyday depositer for sow etc.When you think in a bad session these high rollers could easily go through £100,000 it's only 250 spins.Who legitimately has that kind of disposable income?

Maybe some "big win news" which can't really be verified yes, but not those ones when the casino is trying to blackmail the high roller (by private phone numbers). That doesn't bode well with marketing at all !
The only scenario when this case could be turned into marketing is only if the player agree to publicly shout that his million euro win was paid seamlessly and without issues while making the blackmail part forgotten.

How would "non-payment of massive wins" be attractive to big spenders, though?

If he can afford $400/spin, he definitely will reject 10% (96K)

 

[PatrickNess]

Don't investigate 3000x+ wins at $2, but investigate 2500x- wins at $400/spin.

Games are not rigged they said! Win multiplier doesn't depend on bet size they said!

 

[goatwack]

400 bucks per spin.

That's the parallel universe I hear so much about

 

[snorky510238]

Given the fact most of us lose in the long run unless you win a big jackpot or the likes. Think how much people spinning these kind of stakes can lose it’s mind blowing. I can easily lose £100 in half an hour when slots are dead staking 40p, the equivalent on those stakes is £100,000.

I still think there should be some relationship to stake limits and casino cash-out terms. If you're a tightwad casino with say a monthly w/d limit of 5k then the max stakes on the slots should be set as near as possible to create a maximum win that pertains to it barring a few slight chances (with the exception of progressives). So that would be 45c max stake on DoA, say 2 euros on Bonanza, 1 euro on Viking Runecraft etc.

What's the point in offering games of chance with rewards that you cannot or will not pay the player in a timely fashion?

That'd sort the bastards out. I mean you wouldn't do an online food shop if the retailer turned round and said "You've paid in full and can have the perishables now, and the tins and bottles delivered in 4 weeks"

Happy to take the huge stakes of a high roller and cream the profits in, not so happy to pay the poor sod when they win. If you can't take the heat, don't go in the kitchen.

As said previously Nektan pulled this stunt on their 38k DoA winner and won the 'Worst player experience of 2017 award' from CM. Only they tried every dirty delaying FU trick in the book until the player involved the UKGC. Oh, and the unforgettable flyer they sent out advertising the win that at the same time they were trying to avoid paying the said player, that looked like it has been composed and typed by an illiterate 5 year-old.

yeah playtech is the king there

$4.000 max stake on some slots and $10.000 monthly cashout limit. How does a casino like that get a license to begin with ? no seriously, how?

Are you exaggerating slightly or not at all? Because even if you are this is downright ridiculous. And dunover has hit the nail on the head I think, some of the limits are so low in comparison to what you could possibly win it's atrocious. I suppose it's that "gambling should be for fun" thing, how dare those players make a huge profit?

i wish i was exaggerating :/ i know there are casinos that allow 4k max bet on white king. i just checked one playtech casino and im sure there are some with higher max bet than this but here it is

their T&C

43. You are aware of and agree that players are allowed to withdraw not more than €9,990 per month. If the amount to be withdrawn is greater than €9,990, the remaining amount will be placed back to the player's Account, allowing the player to withdraw additional funds the following month in accordance with this Section.

I have been given about $400 in freebies the last 2 weeks from casinos trying to reel me back in. In total my balances have been $2,225. I never made one cash out. So if I deposited instead of freebies for the amount of play time I would almost be down 3k in 2 weeks. All of this done on 60 cent bets.

I truly believe I will never deposit in a casino again. Last year was great for me but this year all I have seen is too high variance slots being pumped out with never ending 10x bonus rounds. And there is not a chance in hell I will be one of the ones to give all those winnings back. Any time I think of slots I think disgust now. I used to love but the industry has ruined themselves in my eyes.

 

[GoldenGhoul]

€9,990 per month

Not even 5x then if you're betting 2k The slot wouldn't even give a "Big Win" graphic and you'd still have to wait several months to be paid in full, that's nice And I admit betting 2k per spin is crazy, but where there is an option, there will be people doing that. This whole thing reminds me of that old Playtech progressive jackpot case and I'm getting angry, gotta go and relax for a bit

Yes your so right, that is what I am seeing. So many x10 bonus rounds it makes you wonder if it’s worth the risk of playing because it’s so hard to get significantly ahead and if you get to deep in, you can never recover unless you hit a miracle run and how often does that happen?
