Microgaming - Something is not right

[steveh35]

I was really hoping I was on a bad streak but in the last few months I have played at various Microgaming Casinos and not won anything never even come close to even exceeding my deposit and this week I am convinced there is something wrong.

I deposited at Ladbrokes on Saturday £34 got a 100% bonus the money was gone in less than 30 minutes I then received a £25 bonus on Sunday this was gone in 10 minutes today received another £25 bonus again gone in 20 minutes (10 of this playing a tournament).

I know theres bad luck but i even got down to playing 10 lines at 1p to keep the game play going and still nothing I have been playing on Micrgaming casinos since about 2005 and I have never seen my money go like this last week I won £25 worth of bonus points on Gaming Club again gone within a few minutes.

I know this has been discussed before and people say that the casinos cannot change the payout ratio without contacting Microgaming but to me since July when I won £1800 and was playing with the money for a week and got the money up from £100 now I don't get 30 minutes play.

That's the problem, you answered your own question. £25, £34... That's just
not enough to hit good wins unless your really lucky and bet $5 on the first
slot you played and got the bonus round.

As stated in your quote up above, you won £1,800 from a £100 deposit.
£100 deposit makes it a lot easier to win £1,800.

I guess it's all about chances. You have more chances to win with more of
a deposit based on more chances to spin the reels at an ample bet size.

£24, £34 is just to low to start off with.

 

[steveh35]

The first deposit was £34 plus 100% so it was £68 and as i play mainly 75p to £1 but I have mostly played this way I only played the £100 because it was on a casino after I had won on the free hour play and only needed to deposit £20 to get £100 free.

I understand now. I stopped the small depositing and only
deposit between $150 - $200 at any Microgaming casino
because I find that it's way to easy to lose small deposits.
My method has been working so far for me.

I deposit around $150 - $200 and bet at max $5 per spin.

Bonus rounds usually pay a lot more at $5 a spin.

I don't take any bonuses because I don't like having a big chained
metal ball attached to my money that can only be released
after I run around the track 500 times.

You're thinking of RTG, Microgaming operators CANNOT change the payouts at all. Not even MICROGAMING change the payouts across the board.

Published aggregate payout figures (monthly & audited) suggested that MGS slots pay at about 95%. This was verified by a detailed study some years ago, gathering the reel strips, and calculating the RTP for those slots where everything was visible (such as free spins). From this, it turned out that MGS slots vary about 1% either side of 95%, if anything many pay more, rather than less. For progressives, the 95% figure INCLUDES the contributions to the pool, and base game payouts are lower, 88% in the case of Mega Moolah, which was calculated using reel strips.

The first deposit was £34 plus 100% so it was £68 and as i play mainly 75p to £1 but I have mostly played this way I only played the £100 because it was on a casino after I had won on the free hour play and only needed to deposit £20 to get £100 free.

Depending on which slot is played, this can happen, and quite often too. The higher the variance, the more likely you are to see £68 vanish in as little as 10 minutes.

During the 32Red slotsmeister, I often play Thunderstruck variants at 9p per spin. Sometimes, I have seen £50 hoovered up in a VERY short space of time, and in little over 1000 spins. This is certainly not the norm, but neither can it be classed as "rare". Equally, I have won £100, even £200, on nothing but 9p spins due to a sequence of high paying free spins rounds. Had I not been playing the slotsmeister, I could easily have withdrawn £200, even £300 once, from a £50 deposit and only 9p spins.

£1800 from a £100 balance is pretty good (did it myself last week as a matter of fact) Found the cashout button at £1800 (unlike the previous week for which I was duly reprimanded)

£1800 would fund 36 £50 deposits, and if each was done with a 100% bonus would provide £3600 spread out into 36 separate attempts to win again.

I have found that MGS can go "on the suck" in one place, but switching between both games and casinos (and different bonus offers) spreads the risk, and often there is the opportunity to cash out. The problem is IDENTIFYING that opportunity, and at the RIGHT TIME. The desire to press home the advantage can sometimes reap rewards, but equally can lead to ruin. This desire to run with a winning streak, rathet than cash out immediately, is how casinos make their money. We know that players who DO work out where the cashout button is, and USE it whenever they can, often get accusations of "bonus abuser", "advantage player", "not playing within the spirit of...." thrown at them.

I mainly played Mad Hatters, Big Kahuna Snakes and Ladders, Wheel Of Wealth and Multi Player Wheel Of Wealth, also tried Monster In The Closet on Gaming Club.

a deposit based on more chances to spin the reels at an ample bet size.

£24, £34 is just to low to start off with.

I received a 10 ndb from Desert Dollar once and withdrew just over £1000, I deposited £25 at Zodiac and capped just over 2k and withdrew £1500, these are just 2 examples your assessment of MGS casinos could not be more wrong.

 

[Seventh777]

Just a quick question to Vinyl, in those audits VWM is the cash won from PJP`s taken into consideration?, if so this would considerably lower the actual % won by the individual player.

 

[Seventh777]

I mainly played Mad Hatters, Big Kahuna Snakes and Ladders, Wheel Of Wealth and Multi Player Wheel Of Wealth, also tried Monster In The Closet on Gaming Club.

A tip, if you are playing with small deposits avoid all those slots like the plague, play the 15 lines dual bonus slots Mermaids Millions or Bush Telegraph are excellent, if you start to get consistent hits of respins on MM gradually raise your stake until they slow down, never play Big Kahuna until you can afford at least .90p a spin, and hits like this will happen, notice also it`s at Ladbrokes...

Yeah but realistically speaking, $10, $25 dollar deposits are super
tough to make into $1000-$2000 withdraws at any casino.

By the way Seventh, above is an excellent strategy. I agree with
you about avoiding those slots if you can't afford at least 90c a spin.

 

[steveh35]

I asked a few weeks ago for people to say which games they thought were best to pay at low stakes and high so Seventh 777 what would your ideal play be for say a £30 deposit where would you start and what would you move onto and which games have obvious patterns that you can think yes i should lower or higher the stake?

Thanks in advance.

The only slot machine i could ever manipulate was in the high street and that was The Golden Game a slot machine that if you knew how to use it would reward you handsomely sometimes amusing to sit by the machine and see people who had no clue about its tricks.

 

[Seventh777]

The next 3 screenies prove 2 things, 1 - when MM is hot it is by far the best slot that MGS have to offer, 2 - It clearly depicts how starting balance has nothing to do with overall winnings, notice my balance from 1-3 screenshots....

I picked these 3 screenies as they all show awesome hits, and a session where I won just under £1900 with a starting balance of around £15.

Hope this proves my points .

My game play on a 30 balance would begin with MM if she was cold then I would try Bush Telegraph, it`s not often that either of these two would yield no returns, if they start performing keep with them but carry on raising your stake, if you get to around 200 then Dino Might at 250 a spin, if the scatters are few and far between leave it, if they start hitting ie x2 every 2-3 spins, keep with it until you hit the bonus, if you hit the bonus stay with it as when this slot is hot it will pop again very soon.

If all has gone well here you will now have around 500, if so, the next slot is Reel Strike, again it will soon be known if she is hot, unlike the others if you hit a quick bonus say for a £1.50 spin then immediately double your stake, if within 10 spins you hit again rinse and repeat, I won just over 2 grand on Reel strike once in under 5 minutes .

Hope this helps and gl.

I cashed out a cool $800 last night on Isis, started playing for .75 a spin, hit a few bonus rounds, then started bumping my bets until i was playing for $2.50. Nailed 3 bonus rounds at that level , cashed out and left $50 in to play with. I am on the US watered down microgaming site though, Riverbelle. Some say its watered down but I cash out just as much if not more after the switch.

Well yes, ofc they are very hard to bump up to a few grand, but in the good old days it happened, and happened on a regular basis (if you played at several different casinos), I am 100% with Steveh on this one though, there has been significant changes in overall wins and wagering amounts, now the only way I can think of that has kept the books balanced is either more players are playing tourneys, or as I asked VWM that more players are playing PJP`s, imagine how much a 1 million win would raise the overall payout percentage .

There are still some MGS casinos out there that yield awesome returns , the next one I will have a run at will be Betway, I signed there a few weeks on a banner that gave 25 FS on LotR, long story short I managed a mind boggling £6700 wagering amount that never capped over £250, I have played at Betways sister site - Gnuf, where it wasn`t that bad tbh, but as is the norm with all MGS groups, we all narrow them down to that special one.

Sorry Seventh, but I'd have to disagree with you about the
slot "Reel Strike". That's probably the crappiest slot you could
recommend. The bonus signs have to all be lined up, all five.
They give you the notion that it's easy to hit but it's damn near impossible.

Also, I tried your $30 on MM or Telebush if MM is not hitting
and it didn't help either. As a matter of fact I tried it twice.

The bonus round in MM where you pick the chest does not pay
out substantially.

Every gambler who had some luck on a few slots consecutively
always believe that the lightning can strike twice.

If you have desktop recording capabilities, can you show
me your strategy in action with $30 to start off with?

Not Pie Factory then

Vamp it up? (bottom feature when red)

Rat Pack (could get expensive)

Just the ticket (and it most certainly was).

My best memories though are of the serial programming incompetence with ACE games, especially Pay Rise. It became hard to find a Pay Rise that WASN'T empty Fortunately, the Lake District was too far for those "Chavs" that regularly came in from the cities to do them - too far, and too few ways to get up there.

At one point, I wondered about going full time as a "Fruitie pro". I didn't, and it didn't last. There is little skill now, and much more reliance is placed on knowing an insider. There have been cases where fruit machine programmers have been "busted" and charged over coding the "emptiers".

Golden Game - I never had the chance to "do" one, but I knew how to check the version for "doability". If it paid out in bursts of £3 - walk away. bursts of £2, good to go. It was about deliberately rejecting the low £5 XXX wins, and going for the "Golden Game".

Now what about the online casinos, don't think for one minute that there are no "manipulators" online. Rigged software is the best place to find them, and they can even crop up in the most respectable softwares.

An "emptier" for ThrillX Blackjack has been carelessly revealed by a casino rep at another forum. They should have paid the player(s) and quietly banned them (like Microgaming did in 2006) rather than reveal that there was a "cheat" in the software.

Fruit machine methods and emptiers exist because the games are RIGGED to play to a set RTP, rather than being random. The software has to continually keep track of what has gone in, and been paid out, and then use complex algorithms to produce a "random" experience for the player. Emptiers are the result of a software flaw that does NOT track a specific win, or sequence of events producing a win. In Pay Rise, it was the failure to track wins produced from the "find the pea" feature, which was pretty easy to get, and add them to the tally of what had been paid out. The result is an empty machine that thinks it has just taken £100 in without paying a PENNY out - it can be rather amusing to see how the machine behaves once it is empty and other players are on it, or better still, the owner/manager of the premises is watching

 

[colly]

I find MCG slots for me are either hot or freezing! mermaids millions- never hit anything worth a cashout have had a few 1000 plus cashouts on stash of the titans and the one with the coloured cars - but both of these are high variance and when they are cold they are icey. Winning wizards will usually give a decent run.

one thing I have learn't (even though i don't always listen) it's a lot easier to cashout 500 through 5 casinos at a 100 than one at 500!:notworthy

cheers

Very True.
I prefer to try to cashout small amounts from diferent casinos versus trying to reach big amounts (balance will show 0$ in 99% of these situations).
But still have problems with my autocontrol..I reached few times 250-400$ with 20$ deposits...but not cashout because I tryed to earn more...until my balance was 0$..

 

[zapotek]

i tried the new microgaming games. had some nice wins on the new robin hood game. had one spin that paid about 200X bet . did not get the shooting bonus round and only free spins once (didnt pay much). i also won a little on Mad Dash (got the bonus round with 25 spins X4) and also won a little on Reel Gems (got the bonus once). so i managed the playthru on a 150% bonus and cashed out $609 from a $25 deposit !

i think its maybe easier to win on the new games . . maybe they got higher payout % in the beginning!? i dont know

I often use a "free play" or "guest" account to try new games before playing for real. It makes the learning free, and when I play for real, I know what to expect.

Many MGS lobbies now offer dual real/guest options on the one account number, so it is much easier now to play in "guest mode" than before when a separate account had to be created.

 

[steveh35]

I tried seventh777 advice i got upto £100 using Mermaid Millions and Bush telegraph. Changed to Dino Might and Reel Strike and unfortunately lost it but did manage to get 90 minutes play out of the casino.

Maximum I won was on MM when i got a £50 win mostly played £1.50 on MM and BT. Tried £1.50 on DM and 0.90p on Reel Strike.

I disagree with you saying Reel Strike is a tough slot, how much have u played this game? In my expeeriences, it is one of the best games there is to hit frequent bonus rounds especially if you spin for over $3 a spin, which i dont unless I am way ahead. The bonus rounds come in bunches on that game, only thing is ,most of the time you wont get top free games with a top multiplier therefore the game can hit the bonus round more frequently, or certainly seems to as opposed to some of the other MG slots that the bonus rounds come up pretty frequent.

I think you need to play that game a little more frequently before making such a judgement. Either that or you have had horrible luck on that game

We'll go with horrible luck then because for me, that slot
was a big money sucker and tease. Also, I did play it
quite frequently because at first I saw potential in it.
I hit the bonus round once and never got it again.

 

[De Beuker]

Well, I've had it now.
I'm gonna take a long break from online gaming, at least from Microgaming.

Cant explain it, I believe in bad luck, but there are limits to bad luck, and something is just not right atm.
Ok, I managed a small withdrawl recently, but that was only thanks to an exeptional good run on BDBA.

I play the Thunderstruck clones mostly, and they have been so horrible for the past 3 months, I have just no words for it.
Free spins used to retrigger quite often on these games, but for the past 2 months, I haven't got ONE SINGLE retrigger, I swear, not one!
My last retrigger on CentreCourt, also one of those games that used to do that very regularly, dates back to May this year.
I still remember, because it was a 4 scatter retrigger, and I was so exited, threw my hands in the air.. and accidently smashed my glasses off my head.

On avarage, one out of 9 freespinrounds should give you a retrigger.
Now I've played HUNDREDS of them without one.
Thats just not right.

Its not that I'm losing, I dont care if I lose, I play for entertainment, its the way I've been losing the past 3 months.
Just lost, again, a $80.- startingbalance, playing 0.27 and later 0.18 per spin, total triggered 3 freespinrounds, highest win 22x bet.
And AGAIN, I did not manage to play through my money TWICE.

But this was the last time for a while.
I'm very sorry, I love the games, but bye bye Microgaming.

 

[XOXOXOXOXOX]

I play the Thunderstruck clones mostly, and they have been so horrible for the past 3 months, I have just no words for it.

try new games, they are much more fun too. I've been playing new games only and BDBA and doing OK. Good luck to you.

 

[Lucky Loser]

try new games, they are much more fun too. I've been playing new games only and BDBA and doing OK. Good luck to you.

Ive had a bit of luck playing the new MG games too. They are great.

I am playing MG almost exclusively now. Best bang for your buck.

 

[De Beuker]

Thanks Xoxo, I see people are hitting like crazy on the new ones.
When TSII was released, it cost me a small fortune to find out it was awful.
Problem is, I just dont like 243-way slots. And most of them are.

Guess I used up all my luck at MG in the previous years, I really cant explain.
It has always been BY FAR my favourite software, giving me indeed most bang for my buck.
But not anymore..

So I've decided that enough is enough, no more deposits this year, maybe next year, we'll see, but its time for a break, as this is no longer fun, and fun is what its all about.

 

[steveh35]

I tried Monsters In The Closet lost £50 and tried Tigers Eye also nothing not even a big win and Dolphin Coast.

 

[Lucky Loser]

Monsters in the Closet is a money shredder. Every time i get the bonus I seem to pick the lowest value monster.It's alot of fun though.

This ^^ hits the nail right on the head, I gave my preferences with aspects, those aspects were...If you do not hit bonuses within X amount of spins then gtfo of there, I also stated when your balance was okay to try certain slots, don`t even think of playing Reel Strike until you have 400-500 in the bank and you are on the up and up, In the old days when things were bubbling and you needed the next slot to take you higher these were the slots that worked for me.

Keeping this thread to context - remember it`s whole point, and that is..`Something is not right with MG slots`, and once again I wholeheartedly agree with Steveh 100% on this aspect.

Footnote... In reply to X-Raided, nope I do not have recording abilities bud, sorry, if I did they would be wasted atm as my casino play is very very limited tbh, my gambling needs are met by a few visits to my local bookies, where I am happy to say my returns atm (touch wood, ooooer matron ) far outweigh my bets .

 

[Seventh777]

Forgot to mention in my last post, How many MG casinos do you play at Steveh?.

 

[steveh35]

I have accounts with most but play with ones that give me value ie I have gone back to Ladbrokes because of there bonus this month I prefer Ladbrokes because I can withdraw with no reverse or issue but like Go Wild for bonuses. I have stopped playing at Red Flush after the fiasco with a tourney (see separate threads) and Platinum Play after they said I have no bonus to offer you (very enticing not) but we after consultation we will offer you 20% i think not. The main ones I now play at are Gaming Club, Ladbrokes (when the offer is right), Go Wild (haven't deposited since the issues last month) and 32 red but only usually when they offer a bonus. I deposited at Golden Riveria this month as they offered a bonus.

I've mostly deposited at Ladbrokes this month.

So Vegas Partner Lounge, Fortune Lounge, and a few independents, have you never tried the Casino Rewards group?. I`ve had some great times with these for very small deposits , try Zodiac, I think they are doing a promo again where you get a free £20 for a £1 deposit that has to be worth a £1 of anybody`s money .

P.S.

Yeah I miss GoWild also .

P.P.S.

Alternatively spend more time watching T.V., i`m getting hopelessly addicted to Charmed atm, i`m in <3 with a witch .

i have played at fortune lounge, vegas partner lounge, belle rock, red flush, 32 red, go wild, all slots, prime casino and casino rewards group (the most value of the deposites was in 32red, fortune lounge, vegas partner lounge, belle rock, all slots and red flush because they are acredited)

results = 0,00€ of withdraw

with high bets, low bets, nothing work in MGS casinos for me

That's unlucky.

MG this week for me.

Casino Lavida (dep $100) Withdraw $500 = +$400
Spin Palace (dep $350) Withdraw $700 = + $350
Grand Mondial (dep $500) Withdraw $400 = - $100

If he named himself "Lucky Winner" he would then jinx himself.

I think what he's saying is that he uses a strategy to win.
It seems as if he is taking the winnings from a previous
casino and spreading it to other casinos to increase his dough.

i use the same stratgey but, in mg casinos simply i never won with deposites of $150 and more and bets of $1 and less, my increased balance was never up of $200

variance is a bitch!

I think MG is great. I cashout maybe one in five times and my biggest wins come from them... I think there is something up with the us-facing software, it does this jerky, lurching, right reels-stopping-before-left-reels thingy, but I dont think there is anything but variance at play when u hit a dry spell...

The other thing to consider is kinda depressing... But follow me for one minute... U ever walk up and down the halls of some of the casinos in ur area? Maybe along a wall near the buffet, or in a staircase leading to the theater, there are a number of photos. These photos usually have the winner of a large jackpot standing next to a pit-boss or a casino manager holding up a large novelty check...

Anyway, if you study enough of these hall ways and enough of the faces, I find you always run across one or two folks per casino that have a bunch of pictures...

Similarly, there are probably a few folks who go to those same casinos that lose all the time... Some people hit a lot, and hit big... Some people who hit sometimes, like to give it all back a lot of the time (for example this poster). And some people just never hit...

Variance is that way...

Well Steveh, looks like i`m going to have eat some humble pie and retract all my anti MG rants, I have just had (still having tbh) one of the best ever sessions (may beat my record winnings per deposit ratio) in all my years of playing MG casinos, I deposited £25 at Ladbroke`s around midday and have around £650 balance atm, I have never taken as many screenshots over the course of one session lol, anyway`s tea break over will post more later .

 

[steveh35]

Nice one Seventh777 if I had some money left this month I might try again but I'm out of spare funds until payday. Hope it is a long winning streak pass some luck onto me after 30 November. :clap:

Do you know where the cashout button is?

Maybe take out the nice round £600, and carry on with the £50 (still twice your initial deposit).

MG can turn sour fast, and take you by surprise. Ladbrokes pay so fast that by the time you think about reversing, it'll be too late

 

[asianeyes]

WTG 777 I would do as VWM suggest and go for that cash out button.

I rarely play these days due to the obvious weighting and low RTP, not been ahead on a deposit this year I don't think.

Anyway tried Jennings bet with a small first deposit and got the expected 65% RTP without a sign of a feature, actually it took 76 spins just for the scatter to appear on reel one.
I did manage one win of 7xbet in over 200 spins though!
These results are very consistent and so far outside expected variance it is actually quite pathetic.

Do you know what a certain licensing jurisdiction replied when I sent them evidence of weighting?

"We believe the term weighted refers to mechanical slots and as these are not available over the Internet we regret we are unable to act upon your complaint."

I wrote a long and detailed reply back explaining what the graphs actually meant and how weighting works for virtual slots and was being applied to games licensed by them - that was 10 days ago and not heard anything back, what a surprise.

What is really funny is that nobody even disputes that the 3 reel slots are weighted - are they mechanical?

On the upside things can only get better.

Cash out button has been hit guys , and here are the top hits etc of the day...

My game plan was slightly different today as I had previously noticed that I had one more feature left to get on TSII to cap the feature achievements, now for those that done this close to release will remember that last bonus was an absolute barn stormer, so I set forth with my meagre £25 and hoped and prayed to hit the scatters, which I did with around £18 balance left, as I was only playing .30p a spin I opted for the Odin feature, which seemed a great choice and after the feature which paid a respectable £44+, leaving me with £72, which is above my threshold of when I usually start playing the dual bonus 15 liners (MM or BT etc).

So.. which slot next I pondered for a bit and decided to chance my luck on LotR, my slowly decreasing balance was starting to concern me and just as I was thinking of playing another slot...boom I was quickly reminded of why I choose LotR, and the 1st decent hit of the day a kitty replenishing x145 stake

I stuck with LotR until the wins dried up and now had around £200, as I had changed my system and needed around another £100 before I would try Dino Might, I made a rather bizarre choice for my next slot, BDBA... which resulted in my largest to stake ratio win of the day, a rip roaring x416 stake belter

Old Attachment (Invalid)

I now had more than enough balance to try DM, she looked good, I was hitting 2 scatters around every 3rd spin now, and after around £40 wagered she duly obliged by dropping in not 3 but 4 scatters, which meant starting the bonus round with a juicy £100 already safe in the kitty

Old Attachment (Invalid)

My 1st 2 guesses were right on the nail (I always go 4 corners 1st, if you hit a T-Rex, click on the squares near him, 99% of the time there is another directly adjacent), after 12 attempts I had not only got all yellows but the x2 multiplier also.

A gut feeling accompanied by a huge grin on my face, as my screen returned to normal after leaving the bonus screen, what a beautiful sight...

This was one of those exclusive to MG casinos only sessions, which I had not had for the best part of a year, and only one way to prove it, the slot that separates the men from the boys... Reel Strike, bring it on I thought, it`s my day.........

I hit a bonus within 15-20 spins 5 spins at x2 at 1.50 a spin, it did not replace the cash it took to trigger it, it done this again around 10 spins later but this time I made a small profit, then a barren spell where I raised, lowered the stake until I had wagered well over what I normally would have, I guess the excitement got to me, then I hit a 5 spins at x5 for 4.50 a spin, which took me around £150 over my initial starting balance, fuck you I thought, this is my day not yours, and I resolved myself to being a boy and starting to think, shall I go for more or call it a day?.........

I have capped my 5 screenshots now ....

To be con`d lol.

 

[Seventh777]

This should have been at the end of my last reply....

Old Attachment (Invalid)

I will finish it tomorrow .

 

[Seventh777]

Reel Strike I deemed was way to risky, so after a quick assessment I was really left with only two choices, call it a day or go on, I was having way to much fun to cash out, so I pondered for a while and thought i`d take a somewhat risk free road next, and opted for..... Cyberstud Poker PJP lol, I was around £100 down from my starting balance when I hit this little beauty........

Old Attachment (Invalid)

I then decided to try out the new slots and went mental on Retro Reels and blew around £600, what now I thought feeling slightly sick inside, gamble the last £200+ or cash out, gamble the last £200+ it is then, and back to TSII I went, after wagering 70 ish credits I hit the bonus and opted for Loki this time, 4 spins in I hit this..

Old Attachment (Invalid)

4 spins left I hit this......


Old Attachment (Invalid)

You very rarely get that second chance when you start losing, I took it and cashed out .

The real icing on the cake however was when I checked my emails just now, and this was waiting for me.......
