Hi Everyone,
I am newly registered with your forum. I too, like so many have watched from the sidelines for quite some time. So it's high time I became official.
I am a " spinner " and spinning is my drug, my vice, my high! Second only at this time in my life to my kids!
I am having severe withdrawals, as with a spinner, we crave the action, anticipation and belief that " it can happen! " I'm finding it really hard to make myself believe that anymore. I will soon be starting my latest novel, " Death of a Spinner..."
Instead of reading on the sidelines I have found it necessary to join your members for the comfort of exchanging information, experiences, knowledge, reality checks and yes, even your wacky, off the beaten track senses of humor.
NOW, As I have mentioned reality checks, I would like to give you all a few pieces of information. And then I would appreciate any and all feedback ( though no name calling as my ego is already deflated to a critical point.)
1) Have deposited over $9,000.00 and played possibly another couple of thousand in comps. This is one, individual casino.
2) Have played there on over 100 different times. Hundreds of hours.
3) On the vary rare occasions that playthrough was met, it was only at a point where there was nothing left to play with, or such a small amount ( smaller than deposit ) that cashing out was not an option.
4) I have never had a single cash out from this casino. AND THEN,
5) Of the last two raffles, three winners of ten, were the same winners. HUNDREDS, THOUSANDS OF ENTRIES AND THREE OF TEN THE SAME WINNERS FROM TWO RAFFLES IN A ROW...(and two of those three had the minimum entries) anyone know probabilities?
6) There have also been occasional issues of interuption of play during a rare good run ( when you thought things were finally going to make a change up )
The funny thing is, I has thought I had done my homework in searching out a casino to become familiar with...I was so worried about finding a casino I could trust to pay me if I ever won.....I forgot the winning part has to come first.
At the very start of my signing up I was thrilled with the playtime, although I had no cash outs, I thought, well, at least I'm getting some good play time here... ( a genious stratgey, by the way ) and that play time has not been repeated in a very, very, very long time..
But I had heard so many horror stories about people winning and then having so much trouble collecting them....I can't understand why we must not only gamble our money ( well, that part I understand too well!) but why we should have to make a second gamble as to if we will get paid or if our paperwork will be proven worthy if we win...They sure don't check us out when they ACCEPT all those deposits.
I am not an idiot...though this does not put much proof to that claim, I know you can't always win, I know the casinos are the real winners, I know about bad luck, bad runs of luck and long dry spells.....
I would like to know how you guys see this, Maybe I am being a poor sport, a lousy loser, and a wicked person to even think as I am.
This casino won over my confidence, took my friendship and trust and I feel abused, cheated and betrayed.
When they realized I was having conflicted feelings, they dropped me like a hot potato or a slippery fish...They would tell me, " good luck" , " good luck ", " we all want you to win...", " this bad spell has got to break ", well, you get the idea, and I bought into it hook, line and sinker.
I thought at one time it was a good idea to pick one casino to play at, becoming friendly and building a repore with them...duh, kept me there ( yeah, that, and thinking the odds had become overwhelmingly in my favor that I HAD to finally win something, anything!)
Thanks for listening and I am happy to be out of the closet...( LOL )
