Theres always a flip side.
Yesterday i played at a site where i have a deposit limit set. I dont normally bother but find more and more seem to like you having one so had one set by myself and the casino.
Upon reaching my usual withdrawal threshold (I normally withdraw fairly quickly if i make profit) i hesitated. The reason - my deposit limit.
For the first time since starting slotting i was second guessing my withdrawal because once i had emptied my account i could not deposit again. I quickly realised that im still spoilt for choice and can deposit elsewhere but the problem is if i had nowhere else to play i probably would have withdrawn less and left some in to play with because i had hit my deposit limit.
By taking away my freedom of choice the deposit limit actually worked against me in that it encouraged me to withdraw less and gamble more in that instance.
As for the RTP. The written word is often misconstrued with no tone or flowing discussion but its fair to say the RTP's should be basic information everyone knows about before playing and not hidden in some help file or away from the general rules. Its not in those places for no reason. No matter how innocent somebody claims it is or how some regulator views it, in my book its deceitful and sneaky the way its shielded, advertised and presented.
New players are conned by it every day.
