I may have hit the biggest ever win on DOA

[BrianGhattas]

i lose sleep over that pic. and it's not cause i'm pulling one to it.
just noticed the balance. you had like 1 buck left?!

I got my only 5 scatters with .83c left in the balance. Can happen at the most opportune times.

Well done - Brings back some memories - Had a similar win off a 1.35 stake. I think this is the biggest I've managed in terms x bet.

Stop bragging Nate!

So account has been verified, I've withdrawn £9800 to skrill, hopefully they will process immediately! Very good service IMO though to be fair all casinos should operate this quickly! Not bad for £100 deposit!

Is it possible the game operators can track players? I mean, maybe my win was just a total of my netent losses over the years? Sorry if this has been asked before!

They're not supposed to. I personally don't believe that they do but some may disagree with me.

Update:

Still no response from the 'manager', though I did manage to call and speak to technical dept, but he couldn't help me as the payments people had gone! I suspect they're a small operator with a lot of requests, but frustrating none the less I've had this before with smaller operators that for whatever reason take days to respond to anything and at funny times of the night.

Not sure if anyone is interested but after a week I got my money £9800 by bank transfer. They couldn't use skrill for some reason but that saved me on fees! Spunked a couple of hundred but self excluded after that, figured the casino would be looking to reclaim some of their losses so left slots well alone for a long time to come, not going to hit that again in a hurry!

Gutted they couldn't produce a screenshot of the win mind you

If all this is true (no reason to believe it isn't, by the way!) then I think you've been incredibly wise and have a remarkable amount of self-restraint. To address one of your previous points yes, I myself DO believe the operators can track you over their slots/games across multiple casinos, even if they claim they cannot. Enjoy the winnings!

Not sure why I'd bother making up the story lol! I'm usually less self controlled when it's smaller wins, but that 10k paid off a loan and student loan. I did have thoughts of a holiday or new car, but only momentarily. I certainly didn't want to try to win more, I mean I'd only deposited £100 with that casino and just thought no way will they pay more! Funnily enough it must have been my lucky day, I'd won £1k on a scratchcard that afternoon, that was what gave me the idea of having a little play of the slots!

And how would they do that?
That would mean microgaming for example can track my play on immortal romance when I play at rizk, VS and betat?

Do you know how much data would be collected if they did so. And why would they keep track?

Ok, this is obviously a somewhat controversial opinion to hold on this forum, but my belief, when it comes to data collection, is that if it CAN be done, they *WILL* be doing it! Size of data storage is no obstacle these days.

Tried to sell a 2TB HDD on Ebay a few months back - couldn't GIVE it away.

Of course, the intrinsic answer to your question of *why* they might be doing is very simple - to safeguard profits!

LOL! No I don't disbelieve you for a second, sorry if the post came over as cynical - I'm wishing you all the best, you've scored a fantastic victory there, enjoy the head-start it's given you and please, above all - just don't "take the bait" and be tempted to "plough back" your winnings! Cheers!

I have had experiences of joining two different sites which both use Microgaming, neither site connected by license or operator, and had almost identical win/losses across them. i.e. Lost £400 on one, and then won £400 or close to on the other. Could all be a conspiracy, but in my 10 years of online gaming, occasionally I have joined a new site, deposited £50 or £100 and got it up to £600-£700, but the casino very quickly takes it back. Whereas deposit a lot of money at one site, and you can have a period whereby you can get the balance up very high and it keeps you up there, rather than taking it all back.

I cannot understand how I could have deposited £100 on one site, and walk away with 10k an hour later. I don't believe in luck when computers and RNGs are involved. I don't think the operators do either. The only caveat is that I can't recall loosing 10k on netent as I have only started playing them recently, MG or Nextgen definitely though!

Yesh! Food for thought, definitely. It pays to remain cynical, in my humble opinion ;-)

When your wins and losses become predictable, that tells me 2 things. Either I have been gambling for too long, or the systems are not as random as they are supposed to be.

Having said that, Netent seems to be the only game provider that does allow for these freak wins, even on low stakes as DOA has proven!
