This is the end of playing Microgaming for me

[plasticnote]

Please do not derail this thread, I am not here to talk about long term RTP, variance etc.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I do not understand why every time I have had a big win, then my game play is immediately doomed.

How many people, realize that or have similar experiences?

After a big hit/win, then suddenly all your gaming are doomed.

Have all MG slots been switched to AWP or what?

/tinfoil hat mode
I can agree with points made here, I have always suspected big wins are followed by losses to payback the winnings (based on my personal experiences)
ill hit a large (by my standard of play) win which will then be followed by a insane dry spell, until the huge hit comes again followed by another dry spell, rinse repeat.

But at the end of the day random is random.

what would be good if somebody (trusted) could write a program we can all run on our computers while playing that gathers statisitics on all our play and builds up an online database and we can see if these games (slots) really do play ball in the long run.

What you said is not called random, if most certain a big win is followed by a bigger lose.

The sequence of events has to be pre-arranged.

I go to work every workday of everyweek to earn money .... i know if i go to work i cant lose anything ..... except my marbles dealing with customers

I play for entertainment value, i dont play everyday or every week and i dont assume when I play I am going to win something and also win big every time.

If i get bored of em I can go and spend 100-150 on some dvd's, a night out on the turps, day at the race etc instead of making another deposit.

The moment i stop enjoying the upswings and downswings of playing the bandits i wont play em anymore.


So i would agree to stop playing if you are not enjoying your time and money spent on the machines.

thank you for the input, this time, I sure do that.

offcourse is pre determined, why would i get 2 scatters on every time my balance is clear 100,90,80,70, it want you to spin to 99,89,69 then its easy for you to keep playing till you have clear amount again. on thunderstruk 2 you can even see if you win or not before your spin even stop, just set at auto spin and click on stats, the win amount will come way before your spin is done.


im not saying that these slots are rigged or anything! but they somehow sync with your balance.

I'm sorry, but:

1. RTP and variance are EXTREMELY relevant to the topic

2. It's not up to you what others post. Start a blog if you want to filter replies.

The phrase "I do not understand" is by far the most apt statement you've made. Now, there's nothing wrong with that at all, but the fact that you don't want to hear about the 2 primary reasons that explain your experiences shows that you're not interested in knowing the facts and only interested in blaming someone/something else for your losses.

It's like saying "I don't understand why I can't cook steak properly" and then saying "and I don't want to hear anything temperature, cooking time, seasoning etc". Instead, you would insist that its the cow's fault and the butcher didn't cut it correctly.

There is not one aspect of your experience that suggests the games aren't random. Slots like BDBA and LOTR are DESIGNED to payout huge and them pay nothing....its called high v******e. If you want the "ride" to be smoother, play different games.

Obviously, you did not consider the cup game example I provided, but then I'm not surprised. I also don't think you read the IGT reps post either, because if you did you wouldn't be saying what you're saying.

Anyway, I'm wasting my breath. Needless to say, you will continue to have this experience on this kinds of slots and probably continue to post about how rigged they all are. It's a shame, because if you're mind was open you could learn a lot, like I did many years ago, and even improve your bottom line.

I hope that helps. I've been pushing for a fuller understanding of volatility as I believe that players who understand it will be better able to find slots that cater towards their playstyle.

I agree with you. A better understand of volatility (often referred to as “variance” on this forum) would give players a better gaming experience.

Experienced players, like on this forum will often have a good understanding/feeling whether a game has low or high volatility. Often based on their own experience when playing that game. Other things that may indicate the level of volatility can be for example the paytable and what kind of features the game offers.

We take volatility as granted on this forum. We know and accept that games for example has a high volatility. And that this may lead to long cold periods. It is much “easier” to accept long and cold playing sessions when you have the knowledge about volatility.

But many average players do not have this knowledge. This is problematic. Especially for new and inexperienced players. One can of course only speculate about how many customers you have lost only because they got “killed” by volatility in their first ever gaming session.

The tendency in most industries today are openness and honesty. Detailed information about almost anything you buy today is available. Buy some coffee in your local supermarket and everything you want to know about the beans used in that coffee is available. Or as Nestlé is saying, “it is good to know”.

But casino software developers in general are still doing business in an old fashioned way. They are still paranoid when it comes to releasing information about their games. It is actually quite strange. Information will lead to knowledge, and knowledge will lead to trust. And trust is probably the most important thing in this industry.

If players knew what volatility was about, if they knew more about what kind of a volatility a game has, then I have no doubt that this would give players a better playing experience (and be profitable for both operators and suppliers).

The problem here is that nobody, not even the casino promoters can guarantee anything about fairness while gambling online without regulation in place that's being enforced.

If you’re convinced that something is wrong go with your instincts. Going to any forum that promotes what you’re complaining about is ridicules. If you carry on about your believes at these promotional sites, you will eventually be abused and labeled.

People making a living off this stuff can’t help but be biased. Of course this logic doesn’t apply here at this site.

Don’t let anyone here that don’t know anymore then you about how anything actually works within online gaming convince you to keep losing more money if your uncomfortable with the results.

Why do you bother coming here?

I mean, since you believe that Bryan (and others here who strangely enough DO NOT make money from the site) deliberately stifles open debate and somehow pays a whole lot of forum members to toe the line, surely your time and effort is wasted here? I've heard the flat Earth society is looking for new members.

If you aren't peddling some tin foil hat theories about the global conspiracy to rip off the world's slot players that should be making a comfortable living, you're taking pot shots at the owner of the site that allows you to peddle it.

Personally, I think you're being incredibly ungrateful.

I thank you for your reply. I see where you come from.

You think what I have experienced in the past few months are normal, and it is the nature of slots.

"A big win will certainly guarantee a bigger and swift lose followed immedicately."


I do not want to play this type of slots any more, becasue, a big win will not bring me much fun/happy time rather an ensured pain and torture.

This reply is a perfect example of how if your opinion doesn't align with theirs, a site regulator will be certain to trash your opinion and modify your post into a personal attack, while trying to convince others that you’re an idiot.

Online casinos should only be regulated and enforced as well.

Hi All:

I used to be a true believer that slots outcomes are based on luck, the variance of slots is based on the reel map and possibility.

Then I learned that it might be that the slots outcomes are also based on:

1) economy condition
2) the player number at the time you are playing
3) if or not you have won/lost big amount in the very near past
4) the slots is newly released or old
5) Has someone else won/lost big amount in the very near past

And many many more theory...

It makes slots play such a complex thing... I can no longer handle.

I better stick to what I do good at, stocks and shares, at least company trading conditions are published

cheers

Sounds like you need to give some serious consideration to quitting gambling altogether.

Stay the course my friend.

I have cut my play back by 75% and seem to be right behind you, at then days end house edge rules regardlss of RTP, Variance or volatility, its a business.

Good luck, its a tough one to give up!!!

 

[LaHutti]

well mathematicly speaking i have now done almost 320K , 320.000+++ Spins on that damn BDBA and never got 5 saphire, how can you explain that to me? and never got 5 of a kind higher than 10 on freespin.

By me hitting them 4 times in half the spins, for example.

 

[randomplay]

You need to understand that slots are "fixed"by their very nature. A slot can be random and "fixed" I.e designed to pay back less than what it put in......but what you're talking about is "rigged" [...]

Finally, back to the cup game. If the operator charged you $1 per game and gave you $9 every time you picked the right cup, you could easily be $50 down after 50 plays or $40 up after five plays. However, it will even out the more you play and in the long term the operator will keep $1 of every $10 you wager. Sometimes you'll be ahead, sometimes they'll be ahead, but long term you cannot win. A casino version would be where there are thousands of cup games being played simultaneously, where some will losing and others will be winning. It's another misconception.....you might say "I dropped $2k in two days the slots must be rigged etc, when the reality is that most of what you lost has been paid to another player in winnings.

Hi,

I hope I'm not being off topic. Considering Plasticnote's concern and Nifty's explanation is it possible to say that online roulette can also be considered as a slot machine? By that I would like to understand if the RNG software used by casinos for e.g. in roulette are "hard wired" to control the house edge and the RTP? If so, then when loosing let's say an "even" bet on roulette, would the result be determined a priori by the software before the spin takes place? If so...is that legal/moral? Wouldn't that explain some bad feelings reported by many players? Thanks for your input! Cheers.

 

[retlaw]

I fully agree with you plasticnote.
I experienced the same over and over again.
A big win (in my case big is 1k) , and I speak for myself,is always followed by losing a lot more than what I did win.
February 1, I did win 1400 euro, since then till today, I lost 4500 euro

It has nothing to do with RTP, because I am mainly a VP player.
I think VP JOB is not a high variance game,but after hitting a RF, it becomes "ice cold".
Then I try playing different VP games and slots, but impossible to get a decent win.

What the reason is for this phenomenon, I really don't know, but I am sure it is not normal.
I know many players have experienced the same and did stop playing for that reason.

You made the right decision with quiting online gambling

 

[Pinababy69]

Plasticnote, as a previous poster in the thread mentioned, you should seriously consider quitting gambling altogether. I do believe that you had a previous username here....oyw7862, and that you were in the Quit Gambling usergroup. The only reason I know this is because at the same time that you won a random JP at Inetbet, and posted it here as plasticnote, there was a congrats scrolling across the Inet lobby, congratulating oyw7862.

Your previous profile:

https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/members/

And a previous ten page thread on MG software, and your decision to quit playing it:

https://www.casinomeister.com/forum...you-have-lost-one-loyal-player-s-trust.26877/

Please take the advice of some here, and quit gambling. This isn't the first time that you have started threads about MG, and even after winning TEN RJ's on RTG, you still believe the software is fixed/rigged/not random. I have been playing online since 2000, and since the induction of Random Jackpots, have never even come close to winning one. And there are many other players in the same position.

When gambling is no longer enjoyable and/or entertaining, it is time to quit. When you chase losses on a regular basis, it is time to quit. If you don't believe that the games/software you are playing is fair, it is time to quit. And when you are spending more than you win, even after winning 10K plus, it is definitely time to quit. As Nifty mentioned, slots are a long term losing proposition, not a moneymaker. The ONLY way to come out ahead in the long run, is to take a big win and run for the hills.

Best of luck to you.

Actually, it has everything to do with RTP. VP has a theoretical RTP just like a slots, its just that it is controlled by the paytable e.g. 9/7, 8/6. Otherwise, casino wouldn't be able to make a decent profit. It's very easy to lose your bankroll on a 99.5% JOB game....its just that the average swings are smaller. I'm not sure where you got the idea that RTP was only about slots?

Plasticnote......I can't stand people who try and trick the membership and take advantage of them....which is what pretending to be someone else amounts to. It makes me sick, and shows just how desperate you are, and how much notice members should take of your uninformed rantings. I hope Bryan bans you for everyones sake.

I have to say, you are wrong, we are close friends because we worked together, speak same language and once upon a time, we shared the same OZ lotto ticket number with a windfall.

I thank you for the input, all I can say is that notes have been taken.

PS: I do not try to insult but the reason you did not win a single RJ, is because you were not slightly close to the level we were playing at

Cheers

Hi Nifty:

With all due repect, the actual person should be banned is you.

When I start to discuss with my true feeling, you jump in and try many ways to derail my thread.

Then, when people share the similar experience together, you start personal insults.

If Bryan bans me, I have nothing to say, he is a nice guy also Max, even my friend got banned from this site, Max still tried to help with the last PAB.

And only thing I have noticed is that you try to block other people 's talk, have you ever tried to help any one?

That is my last post, as long as you still in this fourm, I will not participate any longer.

And thank you for the rest of you, my friend - Nate, Oslking ... farewell...

Of course I know that VP has an RTP, but 99.5% compared with approx. 95% for slots normally would make a big difference (IMHO).
I am not going to discuss this any further, I will call the phenomenon : sequential bad luck which always starts after a big win, with an unknown reason.

Wow. You really think were THAT dense?

YOU claimed to have won a RJ when in fact it was your "friend" (who just happens to be a self excluded member) who won it. Whether or not your "friend" shared a windfall or anything else for that matter is irrelevant.

Fact is, you either:

1. Are actually your "friend" and using a different alias, or

2. are using your "friend's" inetbet account (which I am sure they would be interested in), or

3. running 2 accounts at inetbet I.e. yours and your "friend". Unless you have permission from inetbet, then I doubt this is the case. We'll see what the casino says when the rep looks into things in the next few days.

Of course, Bryan or Max will be checking IP addresses etc at the forum so unless you're conveniently living with your "friend", then matching IPs would confirm what i suspect I.e. that you're actually the other oyw person or at least using their identity somehow.

Your comment about pinababy not being at the same level.....well it's pretty much saying she, and most others, are just piddlers who are nowhere near as important as you. It shows at the very least that you have no class.....and the fact is that's something that all the money in the world and all the lottery wins cannot buy you.

As for the "notes are being taken" stuff.....WTH is that all about? Some kind of threat? Honestly.....get a grip.

I'm sorry now that I spent even one minute of my life helping you to understand casino gambling. You're into shares, which is just another form of gambling. You know what they say about a fool and their money.....and based on that your money will disappear one day.

I call Bryan to check the IP.

Have I ever tried to help anyone? Are you KIDDING me? Did you READ this thread at ALL? I was helping you quite a lot. I was taking time to explain to you how things actually work and therefore improve your gambling experience.....but all you can come up with is "big bad nifty stifles debate and tries to block other people and stops people expressing their feelings". Well, I'm not surprised. I've heard it all before....after all, its the last (and sometimes) first resort of those who refuse to accept facts and refuse to take responsibility for their gambling, along with those who just don't want to hear anything that disturbs their fantasy world. As I said earlier, if you only want people who share your fantasy to reply then start a blog. If you are going to post stuff that is just plain incorrect and uninformed in a public forum, then you need to accept that others are going to point out your errors.....and, if you refuse to take it on board, treat you with the same respect that you would pay someone who ignores your efforts to help you understand the realities of something.

I can see that you're just trying to divert attention away from your own situation by trying to start another "nifty bash" or "I don't post anymore because of nifty" load of shite. If you don't post that is YOUR choice. Same with anyone else. Blaming someone else for your own unwillingness to debate or discuss your theories is elementary school stuff.

Anyway, let's see what CM and inetbet comes up with eh? If I'm wrong I will, as always, admit it and apologise if necessary. The fact that you seem willing to accept a ban seems very odd though...

P.S. an IP check.probably won't reveal much anyway. The other user hasn't done anything since 2009 so the physical address or ISP could easily have changed since then.

 

[plasticnote]

Then after your post, I have given the reply, you even thanked me. I think we were settled, then you start attacking me again.

I said I quit, you still keep bullying me, what you want Nifty?

"On page 4 of this thread, I said I do not want to play this kind of game anymore..." you thanked me, I really mean it.

Tell me Nifty, why you start attacking me again?

Let us make a friendly deal to settle this once for all, the bet is the membership on this forum. I ensure you this is the last bet I ever placed, with my most chrished forum membership.

Does that fit you?
