Casino with WMS Slots

[hoff1985]

Hey folks,

is there another casino with WMS slots than Jackpot Party? Unfortunately Jackpot Party doesn't accept any players from Switzerland

I would love to try WMS slots....

Thanks,
Hoff

Not at the moment Hoff, but there is suggestions that their maybe in the near future. However, the difficulty is that WMS will only accept players on their games that are from countries with legal online gambling. If Switzerland has any issues with online gambling then it will be unlikely you will be able to play.

Thanks Conker... No problem, gambling is legal in Switzerland... Jackpot Party (WMS) and all the casinos with Novomatic slots are the only ones i ever saw that are not allowing swiss players...

Cheers

Luckily I'm in the UK so can play (don't mean to rub it in) but have heard they will start accepting players from more countries soon - let's hope one of them is Switzerland

Gambling is legal In Canada as well but no WMS or IGT and a few others, some of it is based on business decisions too.

Jackpot Party have already expanded into other jurisdictions and will be expanding further very soon. I will of course keep you all updated, particularly if we are able to open our doors to Switzerland

I was told a while ago that WMS has some sort of exclusivity contract with land based casinos in North America. I don't know if it's true or not, but that would make sense. Most of the WMS slots at the local casino are available on the Jackpot Party software. One would think that the casinos wouldn't be to keen to buy WMS slots if players could play the exact same games online. That's probably why you don't see online casinos with Aristocrat or Konami slots either. Land based slots are usually exclusive to land based casinos around here.

Not to mention that if you played them online and then went down to your local casino you'd soon notice the difference in how much you were getting back.

We recently released a Konami game called Rawhide at Jackpot Party. I think in time, a lot of what you see at land based casinos will make their way online.

Can you already tell if there's a plan to accept swiss players and when this could happen? Jackpot Party is the only casino i would love to check where i'm not allowed right now ;-)

 

[JParty_Roxy]

I wish I could tell you. The moment I get more info, I will definitely share it.
In the meantime, have you checked out the Jackpot Party casino game on Facebook yet?

Jackpot Party are already down at 92% RTP on their base games, how low to they set the RTPs in B&M casinos?

Jackpot Party would get a hell of a lot more business off me if they ditched the JPP system (or at least made it optional) and made up the RTPs on the base games to 95%. (And even then, 95% isn't fantastic! Compare a 95% RTP slot with a 97.5% RTP slot, and the 97.5% RTP slot halves the house edge compared to the lower paying game.)

I agree with you in general (I am unfortunately not allowed to play at Jackpot Party). I would rather prefer 95% on base game than 92% + progressive. As you said, not even 95% is fantastic as this is something players should expect . We know for example that many online games today will have a RTP% of 96-98%.

Bet365 has Aritocrat games; I play them often, as well at land-based

Which ones? I just checked and couldn't recognize any. Do they have the real Aristocrast feel with the winning music and all?

Local casino's RTP on slots is 94.7% and Chopley said that JPP is 92%. So I don't think that they are afraid of that part.

In this neck of the woods its approx 90% on pennies and 92% on nickels and quarters based on max betting and a set number of spins, thats Govt regulated B&M casino's.

Lucky you

A casino
or slot facility in Ontario may choose an overall
payout rate higher than 85%, but cannot set a
machine with a lower payout. In order to change
the payout rate of any slot machine, a request must
be submitted to the Commission for approval and
an inspection.

Yes, RTP is lower on pennies and higher on the high denomination slots. "Max bet" isn't taken in consideration with RTP, that's why it's always better to bet low on higher denomination machines than bet max on lower denominations. I remember playing in Vancouver a couple of years ago and I've got absolutely raped by the slots, that was only bad luck but it's still bad memories.

I don't know where you are in Ontario, but the Lac Leamy Casino near the QC/ON border also has a RTP in the 94%-95% range on slots.

LOL, just moved to Ottawa this week

Out here RTP cannot be changed, any change is monitored and placed through the BC Lotteries Corp. 85% seems awfully low, however below me in Washington State the native run casino's are a minimum of 75% and done on a lottery scratch system, I know lots of winners but I have not been one of them and would hazard to guess the are in the low 90's, they need winners to draw, competition is pretty fierce down there.

Well, now you have no excuse to play those lousy 85% rtp slots anymore

 

[dionysus]

lol, I don't hit the land based much but for when my mother visits; I prefer the comfort of my couch...but I hope to go for a nice buffet and a day of play. Oddly, I'm in Ottawa, and it's 23 minutes to the OLG here, but 16 minutes to the one Quebec side.

The Jackpot Party casino on Facebook is a social game as opposed to gambling.

Can you win money with the chips that you buy?

 

[JParty_Roxy]

Jackpot Party casino on facebook is only a social game where you can unlock great slot machines as you level up, share gifts with friends, and gain achievements.

 

[conker]

So in short - No

Because if you could then it would be classed as gambling.

It's not fair to get on the back of JP though, their hands are tied over Federal laws. They would be in the US in a heartbeat if it was legal to accept payments for online gambling.

Online WMS, IGT, Aristocrat, Konami etc are blacklisted in Australia as it is disallowed to play here from Australia as they have some of them in the land based casino and also at the pub. Its the government system trying to protect land based casino and pub from going bankrupt it seems. Typical Government revenue raiser!

Same thing in Canada but I doubt it's a government thing. More likely a land-based casinos request.

The online WMS slots are usualy around 92% for the base game and 2.99% for the progressive so overall they are around 95% +/- a bit. Additionally, that's a high % for a progressive in general (by comparison, Playtech's Marvel slots are about 1%) because the progressive triggers more frequently.

For example, I've hit the WMS Jackpot Party progressive 6 or 7 times this year and Playtech's Marvel ones only twice, with total winnings on the WMS ones I'd guess overall about 3 times as much as on the Marvel hits combined - and I have played the Marvel games way, way more than WMS games over the same period and with larger bet amounts.

The one thing I would say though is WMS have more volatile games than Playtech's Marvel series - only Iron Man 2 would come close in the volatility stakes to games like Bruce Lee or Fortunes of the Caribbean IMO.
