Having tore through another bankroll in a few spins playing max bet by mistake thus destroying my low rolling fun I decided it was time for a poll.
We have discussed before whether the max bet button has any use other than ripping people off but if it does would it really be so hard to have a pop up asking for confirmation you want to max bet the first time we use it in a session on a slot?
MG of course always ignore any advice that comes their way which is why their market share is shrinking and competitors are eating into their profits - it must also be the reason why the max bet button is still as close to the start button as possible without any safety net to protect punters making bets they do not wish to with one click of the mouse.
This is not a trivial matter either as a typical situation will have me playing a 25 line slot at 9 lines and 1 coin = 45c but if I hit bet max I might play 25 lines at 20 coins = $25.00
It gets better(worse) because I do not need to hit the bet max again to compound my error as if I have not noticed my my mistake for that 1 spin and now correctly use the start button I am still unwittingly playing over 50X as much as I wish every spin!
This is easily done when you play long sessions but let's find out how easy with a poll.
