We all know that Ladbrokes have committed their future to Playtech but I just got this message as to when they are moving Playtech into the Casino tab and so losing all the Microgaming slots. What are they thinking they could have kept both and kept a lot of players.

wow that sucks. I was lucky in their MG casino. Up $1000 lately and got my wire transfer in 2 days.

I like maybe a few playtech games but thats it
 
Playtech slots are very streaky and not in a good way.

The bonus terms for Microgaming slots are 30xbonus but for the Playtech it is 30x(deposit+bonus). Unless they drop this down to something sensible like 15x(d+b) then I will be playing Playtech slots elsewhere when I fancy a go on them.

also got no idea how the bonuses can be bigger and better. they are all STICKY BONUSES in the playtech casino. never ever withdrawable after completing the wr. can only be bigger and better for laddies!
 
the sad thing is that their customer service have this idea that from feedback customers approve the change, they even have cheek to tell me on live chat that I wont be disappointed and promotions will be great, I said you are right I wont be as I will be playing elsewhere , only went to live chat to check for definite that all microgaming will be gone including the slots in games section etc, and they will all be gone, its been my main casino for over 10 years so guess other casinos will make more money now lol , but least Ladbrokes could do would be to remove all their promotions as they all run till end april yet games will be long gone . such a bad move and time will tell but cant see their playtech making them as much, then again maybe it will since its so hard to win on

The thing I find about playtech is its very hard to get to free spins and when you do, it usually pays like crap. When I used to play there because of some of the attractive marvel slots, most bonus rounds on average would hit every 300-500 spins. 90% of the time at $2.50 per spin id be lucky to get back $20 in the free spin round. Yesterday on betfair I won $76 from $7 comps. I didnt even touch the slots with it. Cashed out.

I also hate the damn pop ups telling me when someone other than myself has won a jackpot.

yes I 2nd this too! as soon as microgaming casino has gone, I am gone too. no more gambling at laddies.
 
So when exactly will they close Microgaming casino? 25 of March?

sorry missed this post.

the bonuses it don't matter what the wr is, they are non cashable, when I won I had like £300 to withdraw, but when I withdrew it out of vegas casino playtech, £100 disappeared! I phoned them straight up. she put me in touch with vegas c/s, they said its non wothdrawable your £100 bonus after meeting the wr!

I said I have read that rule a lot the non withdrawable rule. and it just means you cant withdraw the bonus until you meet the wr, he said no. the bonus is NEVER withdrawable, you will lose the bonus once you cash out! so its deffo sticky bonus. that's the reason I wont ever be back to play the playtech casino.

The non-withdrawable bonus is a pain in the arse and if you don't dip into the bonus funds your basically wagering your own money 60x before you can withdraw. It seems to come as standard with Playtech software along with deposit+bonus wagering. But the casinos can ask for it to be adjusted. Gala Casino,Paddy Power dont have sticky bonuses and a lot of other casinos adjust the WR on the bonuses.

Also is Ladbrokes getting Netent software as I remember that getting mentioned last year?
 
They've had a proper nightmare here.

Anyone who wants to launch the ultimate casino - simple strategy:

MG Slots, NetEnt Slots, WMS Slots = Perfect Casino.

I might launch it myself...

avoid 'epic superhero slots' like plague. -200x is the best you can got. i got burned too many times by Iron Man series, Hulk and Avengers, not to mention crappy Blade, Fantastic 4, Elektra, Dare Devil which simply are not designed to pay. the only nice Marvel non-superhero slot is Rocky in free spins because is adding more wilds than usual giving a chance for wild line which is 10000x line bet, and FS are x2.

This is also what I would look for when joining a new casino.

For a "perfect casino" though I think it's a better idea to develop your own software rather than having to licence it off another company that has already sold the same shit to 100's of other casinos. No matter how well you run the casino you will always be limited in terms of innovation as to what the software is capable of.

32red are still my favourite casino, but every day Microgaming feels more and more out dated. Even though 32red have a really good team, they are still 100% reliant on Microgaming so they are never really fully in control of the casino.

A casino like 3Dice however can implement any feature they wish as they have full control over their site and software.
 
Well, at least they have NetEnt now under the games tab, so it`s not all bad news.
Still, sucks not being able to play IR, or Avalon II (and upcoming slots).

Thor can throw in some tasty wins too. I remember a year or so ago I won 2,000 on a 1.50 stake free spin feature. I agree with the other slots though. Hulk freespins are crap but the bonus game can play out okay I guess. The others just look pretty but do little. Overall I am not a fan of Playtech slots but do play them on rare occasions and when I do its Great Blue most of the time.
 
Really sad they are leaving MG, I will also be closing my account with them now after years of playing there. I would like to know where they get the impression that customers want this, it doesnt appear so on their facebook page
