Sloto Cash is just another casino that sets you up to fail. They could easily start all the games the same low bet but they do not. Some start at $1.00 while others start at $5.00 while others start at $3.00
The casinos love to pull this crap. Anything to trick you.
The max bet thing is bullshit too.
What ever happened to being a grown-up and checking your bet before you make it?
Do you go into a store and purchase an item, open your wallet with your eyes closed and pull out a note and HOPE its the right one?
Honestly. The rule can be stupid or whatever, but it is the players responsibility to make sure they read, understand, and abide by it.
The casinos default net settings are irrelevant. It would be an issue if players HAD to make that bet, but they don't. If the casino set their defaults too low, you would have people moaning that they were making big bets, then came back to the game and hit spin without checking, and hit a big feature on a .20c bet instead of $5. In fact, there's been a case here where someone was betting $25 a hand on multi hand poker for hours, left and came back and hit a pat straight flush on the first hand.....which had defaulted back to min bet. He was pissed totally, but he didn't CHECK his bets before he played so its HIS fault.
You would have to be seriously not paying attention to not see the difference between a $6 bet and a $25 bet, and even more so to realise after 5 spins. You would also think the player would be extra careful KNOWING that the max bet was $6.50 AND because they play less than max lines. It's just totally careless, do why should they be given special treatment when everyone else abides by the rules and CHECKS their bets?
It's just astonishing to see (supposedly) mature adults blaming everyone else for their own mistakes. The argument that its the casinos fault because they made it possible for the mistake to be made is completely ridiculous. If I get in my car and get on the freeway and speed like an idiot at 180kph and kill another motorist, do you think I should get off? I mean, the car ALLOWED me to speed so its the car makers fault. Further, its the governments fault for ALLOWING me a long stretch of road to build up my speed. Oh, and its the polices fault for ALLOWING me to break the speed limit and not stopping me. Don't forget its also the other motorists fault for ALLOWING me the chance to hit him....he should have pulled over or stayed out of my way.
You might think its silly.....and you'd be right. It's EXACTLY the same premiss as the "casino allowed me to make the bet" argument. If the rule says "don't bet over $6.50" then make sure you CHECK your bet to make sure you DON'T.
It's always amusing to see the advantage players jump on these threads too, as its usually them who get caught by such rules....and such rules are there BECAUSE of them in the first place. The average player doesn't flat bet 6 lines @$1 for 3500 spins......this guy tried to take advantage and didn't stay focussed.....and that's HIS problem and HE needs to suck it up.
