Has anyone cut down or stopped gambling?

[dunover]

I'm just reading your thread now funnily enough

lol...

 

[mrmark21]

Good to hear your having some luck Chopley, I actually had access to a computer tonight and played the 200% at Tropezia Palace. I can't believe I still pay for this rubbish (albeit rarely). Lol...

So I deposited $30 for a BR of $90, I was betting $2.50 a spin and I actually got about ten features on different games. Yay a large part of RTP is tied up in features! Ummm no. They all paid about $30. One gave me $50. You'd think they were broken. Yawn...

Anyway so I started wondering considering this seems to be the norm does that happen to every one. I mean have low paying features become a really big occurrence on these online slots? Where do people find they have better luck online slots or land based? Because $30 on a feature at a $2.50 bet ten times in a row? Am I the only one who has such rotten luck with online slots?

I'd probably leave where I was playing if that happened to me at a land based casino. I'm going to the pub to play me some More Chillies

I have the same problem and when I go to the land casinos the bonus games are pretty much matching up with online gaming.. features with low payout and not able to get a decent amount of gaming time. 10 years ago I could walk into a land casino and recycle 100.00 for a whole nite and walk out with a few hundred. 8 years ago I could deposit 25.00 and play all nite and cash out with at least 500.00 (when U.S players could deposit into MG casinos)

I agree with you on that. My local pub has tightened their slots over the last year and less people play because of it

I did end up at the pub after my heinous session online. I was only betting 50c I got the cash express jackpot three times for around twenty five dollars each. That's way better than betting $2.50 online and getting ten features that return $30.

 

[Matt44UK]

This is a timely thread, for me at any rate.

I've just totally stopped, with, I'm glad to say, no side-effects. I thought nothing of wagering £2000 a week up until a month and a half ago, fortunately I was lucky and didn't lose too much all told, I'd say I'm about £2000 down on 5 months ago when I first started gambling online a LOT, so no big deal.

I was worried I had a gambling problem to be honest, but I managed to just stop with no gradual weaning-off period, and just found other things to do when getting home from work in the afternoons....housework, gardening, sodding around on the PS3 (The Last of Us, RDR multiplayer and the imminent approach of GTA5 have helped a lot!)

I have to say it's the first 2 or 3 days that are the hardest, no doubt about that. After that, I just found myself shrugging and thinking "oh well, it can wait"!

I just needed a BREAK, and I thought back then, and still do, that a couple of months would suffice, so cards on the table, yes I'll fire up the roulette wheels again come October 1st, but will try to make less deposits - as things stood, I ran the very real risk of messing up big time, and I don't want to put myself in that position again.

It'll be interesting to see if the bonuses fly after a two month absence with the same frequency they did when I first signed up. I'm a big believer that online casinos make sure that new sign-ups win big and get more than their fair share of bonus rounds - is the same true for those that return after lengthy absences? We shall see.

Anyway, I'd recommend this to anyone who is worried they're getting sucked in a bit too deep - it only takes a little willpower, have faith - it can be done!

 

[tinybettor]

Well I'm thinking its time to take a really long break now. I'm just continually getting obliterated by these slots week after week. I've already set a weekly budget but its just kills you when every week its gone within moments of depositing. And when you get that rare week where you win a decent amount (e.g. 3x deposit if I'm lucky) the slots then quickly proceed to eat it all back in successive deposits until your deep in the red again. I don't think I can endure this insanity any longer, it really has takes a mental toll on you when its the same thing week after week on months end.

Well I hope everyone else is still having a blast with online gambling because the fun's just not there anymore for me. I'll still be around reading these interesting threads but for now I'm on hiatus from these damn slots.

 

[gloria460]

land based casinos are just az bad or worse. I stopped gaming on line months ago and started gling to hard rock. Not only have they lowered the rtp; they don't do free dinners anymore, no frre chips, removed the paying slots and replaced them with WMS slots, bonus rounds are a joke and did I mention no comps.

I filled out their survey and complained about all the goodies that they took away and the only thing they answered was that they were removing 200 wms slots. I go maybe once a month now.

 

[heatherad]

I have cut down alot! I've been playing the same casino since 2007 and have never once hit a jackpot nor a mini jackpot. Playtime has gone way downhill and deposits don't last at all.
Things I have noticed in the past year or so are: when playing with only my deposit, bonus rounds are very rare and when you do hit a bonus round the payout is ridiculous. If I'm playing with a bonus, bonus rounds come every now and then but still payout is sad to say the least.
The most I've had my balance up to and able to cash out is $1000.00 and that was on a bonus(and getting it up that high was a one time thing)...go figure
Otherwise when Im playing with my deposit only, I'm lucky to see anything over $200.00
Good news is I bought a Salsa Bingo last night and won $2

 

[mrmark21]

The last time I deposited more than $10 at an MG casino was ages ago. I'd say two-three months. The last time I saw a payout higher than $200 (playing a bonus) was to long ago for me to have the inclination to deposit more than that. My average bet size is 50c-$1.50. The payouts on features are always ridiculous and thats accross the board, "wow another $5 paying feature" yawn I'd probably be willing to deposit more and lose more if I felt like a big win was possible. For me $20 a week is poo change as I can easily shell out $15 for lunch at work daily (sushi/sashimi).

Salsa bingo sounds good. I've gotten hooked on advancing with the Jackpot Party app. On the other hand I'm planning on playing some Netent slots at BGO next week on a decent sized deposit with 200% bonus. Gonna get me some play time

 

[just play]

Well, that's finally it for me with online casinos.

After playing for 30 minutes this morning on a balance of $83 with bets at 20-25cent, only 2 bonus rounds which paid under $1 and under $2, time to call it quits. I think if I have had playtime it wouldn't bother me so much, but 30 minutes!!! After all, we are doing this for entertainment aren't we? That is not entertainment.

I don't care what anyone says...the playtime/payout is absolutely different than it was (at least with RTG) my husband always says to me after I deposit, "your done already? What happened to years ago when you could play all day and night on one deposit?"

There really isn't any use. I can think of so many other things to do with my money, and it's not throwing money to casinos with play like this.

I of course will still play my horses money lasts forever there, lots and lots of playtime, plenty of wins and all around a much better time.

 

[rena35]

I am going to give it one last try before i throw in the towel.I have been playing for years and it just seems like money wasted these days.I thought about starting a garden and since im losing my enjoyment of the game i might start one in the spring.I for one am tired of my deposits getting eaten with no play time at all.

I’ve currently stopped altogether because I think it’s made me a little social inept of late. Not in the digital world here but in the real face to face world down there where we have to speak to people avoiding the cash for fun, cash not won conversation. oke:

I get what your saying $80-100 deposits gets you nowhere fast these days. Zero playtime, zero hope at a withdrawal. I look at the winners thread and all I can do is wonder how people actually manage to win. Yes features have terrible returns, whats the point in trying to get the feature if it's only going to spit out diddly squat?

I donate teensy meaningless deposits to online casinos generally twice a week or less, I always take a bonus, that way I can at least get some play but even these miniture deposits are eaten all to fast. I'm going to keep throwing $20 a week to online casinos, thats nothing $20 wont get you much these days. I spend about $30 a week playing the Jackpot Party slots app (damn they have me hooked) and about $200 a week on land based slots.

These online casinos need to start showing our cash a little loving

The thing with the Winners Screenshots thread is that you're basically getting a condensed report of hundreds of players' wins, gleaned from tens of thousands spins every day or so, massively in excess of what any single player could ever have time or money to perform themselves.

It's basically a rolling advertisement for the casinos, except the players are paying for and producing the advertising for the product they're buying!

Personally speaking I'm done with online slots and have been for months now, with the exception of ruthlessly focused EV+ bonus play, but those offers are (unsurprisingly) drying up as the casinos realise they're not going to tempt me into depositing under any other conditions.

I continue to make handsome profits out of the AWPs in the local pubs, and my overall 'gambling balance' since I quit 'normal online play' at the end of June has been positive to the tune of a couple of grand at the last count.

Yes I'm doing rather decently on the land based slots. But I only play progressive machines (not state wide, specific to the venue). Was playing $1 the other day and got the progressive feature (free booster spins) that paid me $1,200 (Rock Around The Clock a Kanomi game). That's mad money when you think about the crappy little pays online slots tend to spit out.

I've had my eye on this machine called Jet Setter Sydney. Has a ten thousand dollar jackpot. Been putting a few spins through it this week, made a tiny profit as well, now if I could just hit that jackpot... Not likely

 

[irmster]

I am currently on a months 'break' - as I am going to submit a mortgage application next month and I will need to show one months bank and credit card bills. I want to avoid having any gaming/electronic purse entries on my latest statements as many UK banks are now performing 'affordability' checks which will include analysing types of spend - and I am not sure how they would react to evidence of gambling, even if it is within my means. (these checks will be mandatory from April 2014).

Good point. I've often wondered whether gaming transactions on your statement would influence potential lenders. Whilst I've been gambling on line for a few years incredibly I've not had to apply for any finance during this time. This may change soon as I'm looking at purchasing a business which will need a mortgage. I guess it may be better to use my credit card rather than bank for any gaming transactions for a while!

 

[243 lines=daft]

I'm knocking it on the head for a bit, basically for the same reason that I don't want these black marks on my bank statements any more, and I'm not willing to get involved with electronic wallets (Neteller/Moneybookers) after some painful experiences back in the day.

Most likely I'll start popping in again to the real casinos in the city centre when i fancy a spin or two of the wheel of doom.
Apart from anything else the wildlife is a bit more interesting in there on any given night than being logged into Lads or 32 red

 

[mrmark21]

I've been plzying Rival over the last few days. TBH I think I've found my new software. The games arent as easy on the eye as MG/Netent but I am certainly finding them easier on the wallet. Other softwares have just been to tight for me over the last couple of months (MG, Netent, I stopped playing RTG long ago) but I'm actually getting the play time I wasnt getting on the other softwares, I won off a free chip, played some tonight, the bonus rounds seem to pay well. I lost tonight but thats okay as the software dosent feel excessively tight. I've missed not playing but I'm gonna give Rival a chance

 

[007sam]

Sick depositing over last couple months for thirty minutes play off £100, bonus rounds if u get them are like x10, if that even. Used play all night on £50 and £50 bonus but being shafted everrytime play, bookmakers worse unibet and victor shovel money in them and not even hot past first feature lit yet. Serious crap going on, I'm out...... Well until that little man in my head convinces me that I'm going win something when the reality is I'm most likely not too.... Stupid little man, who is he or she?

 

[gloria460]

I got an unpleasant surprise when I went back to the land based casino. There are hardly any comps, no free dinners, no postcards with comps and no monthly magazine with the usual coupons. I emailed the casino to ask about all these changes and all they said was they were removing 200 WMS games.

I guess this leaves me without a place to play unless I go to Vegas, Jersey, or Louisiana......lol

Rival slots are very good IMO, they might not have the bells and whistles of the 'Big Boys' software but I'd take most of their output over the shit that MG and NetEnt have been churning out for a while now.

The problem is finding a decent casino to play their software at (although personally speaking I'd trust Tropica and I never had a problem with them, even when I properly advantage played a 1777% bonus and cleared over a grand out of them), and also the software itself feels a bit amateurish sometimes, when they misreport the RTP of a slot by 20% and suchlike, for example.....

The software itself I think is fair, and the slots payouts in the main is pretty good, 95%+ in most cases.

Yes the crap paying features on MG and Netent are getting kinda old. I was playing Jaques Pot for the first time ever at Slots Capital the other night and won $60 off a 80c bet (which seem regular as well). I couldnt expect to get over $20 on a bonus round on an 80c bet at MG or Netent. Most free spin features payout nothing as well. Half the reason I made the decision to cut down massively in the first place.

But if I can get a software that will last me more than ten-fifteen minutes on a $40 deposit then I'll start playing again. I dont expect massive payouts all the time but MG and Netent have just gotten sooo unbeleivably tight I cant get over $30 past my deposit before the slots bleed me dry. I reguarely go 30 deposits in between withdrawing. I go about ten trips to my local between every bookpay.

So yeah in summing up I'm going to start giving Rival more play

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Well no one was more surprised than me to find myself straight depositing £100 into 3Dice last night!

I've carried on playing there since 'quitting' as the VIP offers come around every 10 days as they're all EV+, but last night just fancied a little dabble on that new Candy Clouds slot (even though it is basically a clone of Happy Valley).

Ended up playing for about three hours and finished with £2 more than I started with, left the balance in there as doubtless I'll play again soon.

It's not a 'relapse' in that I never had any sort of 'OMFG I QUIT BECAUSE I'M LOSING ALL MY MONEY!' moment, I just didn't want to slot online for several months, but yesterday I found myself in the mood again.

Plus I'm making ridiculous money out of the AWPs in the local pubs at the moment, to the extent that Mrs Chopley asked me to go and pay it all into the bank a few weeks ago as it was making her nervous having that much money on the shelf. (There was the best part of £1000 up there.)

I know exactly what you mean...

I was discussing this with my sister the other day. She went to the local jumped on a machine and I think it was three spins later she got the feature. Won about $150 on a 60c bet. She didn't want to leave with her winnings because she only just got there. So she lost them all back on much to higher bets for her BR. But what I instantly thought to myself was who wants to go to their local only to leave five minutes later? We have gone to play because we enjoy playing. Same goes for online. Sounds like you just wanted a dabble and EV+ bonuses are always a big plus.

I cant even remember how many times I've gotten the feature on the very first spin at B&Ms. Do it all the time only to kick myself after because I wasn't betting much.

But yeah so Rival came as a bit of a relief. I was done with the other softwares but I still wanted to play. I've found that Rival dosent suck and suck and suck without returning at least some play time.

 

[Balthazar]

straight depositing £100 into 3Dice last night

I got a birthday bonus from them today, $25 which is quite generous considering that I've not played there that much. Played various games and made it to $80 in a fairly short time. Didn't make WR though because both Enchanted Spins and Arctic Adventures decided that they didn't like my $0.40/spin and ate me alive.

my first spin on cleo ii at the landie is always high as my budget allows. I've nailed it a couple times.

 

[mrmark21]

my first spin on cleo ii at the landie is always high as my budget allows. I've nailed it a couple times.

Yeah it's always fun just sitting at a machine pressing the spin button and then BAM getting the feature on the very first spin!

I was actually playing on a game the other day and someone got on the game next to me Tiki Torch and got the free spins first spin. What's more is they got all five scatters. I was like damn I wish I had have been playing that game!

Sometimes I'll spend the whole time hopping from one machine to another. But I'll bet less. I've managed to get some whoppers from doing this although not nearly as good as I could have done if betting more. I've found Kanomi games are the best at giving the features within the first twenty spins I've done especially well on Ancient Dragon and African Diamond.

 

[mrmark21]

I self excluded at every single casino today. The software that finally did it for me was Netent (I know I shouldn't have been playing that software). My sister had gone to the local earlier today spent $100. She was gone for four hours. Figured I'd treat myself ordered Dominos and deposited $100 lasted me all of twenty minutes. The pizza lasted me longer So over being ripped off on every software. I haven't won anything online for months. I put my winnings from the local into these random slots that randomly never payout? Not anymore.

I'm relieved TBH means whenever I get bored and maybe just maybe I get tempted to deposit I won't be able to. I can't see how people actually manage to win on these online slots. Every time I double my deposit the game sucks it all back twice as fast. I also don't understand these high RTPs. I really don't see how these games payout anymore than land based slots set at 89%. I actually have better luck at the B&M whereas that really should be the other way around. I'm sure they are honest about the RTP just so happens that I'm nowhere near the good end of the RTP at any online casino (except 32 Red).

I have a couple more casinos to add to that list. The only casino that I won't self exclude myself at is 32 Red. They just gave me a free comp last night (plus I have a $50 deposit limit a week). I'm not going to thank them by closing my account

 

[007sam]

I had my weekly play this week, joined Wintingo for bonus but never turned it about or won anything decent. Great customer services though. Anyhow I'm not playing there anymore as am closing accounts now, staying with bet at, guts and 32 red for the moment. Victor bonus banned me today for my betting antics so his machines can fit right where sun don't shine. Playing some nice risk free in uk ATM just ticking over with them, sometimes hit lucky. These machines not as good as used be, I was thinking going play land based as the joy is not out there ATM especially playboy or Im, show me the love, moan moan. Low rolling 30p for a play the other week £50 in under hour........ Maybe I start going to the bingo.....

Your staying with the best casinos. Good choice I have had my best luck at 32 Red. I self excluded from Guts about a month ago (effective until the end of the year). Guts is an awesome casino (same goes for Bet@) great CS. My decision to SE there was purely based on my game play I would rate them as one of the top online casinos. I've never had a problem with any of the above casinos that wasn't easily resolved.

I'd definitely say give your local a shot. I'd rather lose on a real machine. I'm doing well at the land based though.

I can't play Bingo. I don't have the patience lol!

 

[luckiestgambler]

i did. i haven't placed a bet for a few months now after losing quite a big amount. i started by making it 2x/wk then once a week until once a month. i made myself busy at work and played sports. though, i might be playing again in the coming months.

 

[rena35]

I hope the coming months are better for us all.

 

[EdieD]

I don't play online anymore. I play at pennsylvania land based casinos now. When delaware and new jersey have regulated online casinos next month, I may take my laptop somewhere within their state borders and try them out.

It would be such a pleasure to know there would be a variety of games and no hassle with payment if you win.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

I'm still on the same £100 deposit I made at 3Dice on the 21st, now obviously I've not been slotting non-stop but I have done a few thousand spins, all at my usual penny a line, and my balance is £195.55p!

Not sure what my RTP is for the last six days but it must be well over 100% of course. My balance has nosed under £50 on a couple of occasions, but then a nice rich run has recovered things for me.

Haven't had any single amazing win, but have had several in the 200-400x stake range, which is what 3Dice's slots tend to specialise in.

I've also steered clear of Arctic Adventure, 'cause that slot is just a bit too dangerous for my tastes.

8419 spins, 105.16% RTP.

Honestly people, if you're getting sick of the wanton destruction machines that MG are producing these days, decamp to a tamer software.

Fallen out of love with the Ice B!tch then?

I'll generally only play Arctic when I'm on one of the VIP bonuses, since they're all EV+ and can help to take some of the sting out of its tail!

A remarkably good run at 3Dice it must be said, I really need to find the withdraw button at some point though, especially since I'm now at over double my original deposit, which experience has taught me is generally a good 'peak point' to call it a day.

This table is a vindication of 'hit and run' play. If you look you have made money on all bar one of the games you've briefly played, taken a win and moved on. The Candy one is raping you at the moment despite being 100-ish up overall. I assume you're using your gains to bankroll this downward RTP curve and when it kicks out a bit, withdraw?
