Did i enjoy it?At one point i was wishing my balance away but, it kept creeping up tenners, to my horror
Ha! I was exactly the same at one point yesterday afternoon, thinking to myself, 'I wish I could just bust out here and be done with it', IIRC I was down to my last £20 or so at one point. But as I say in the video, you can't do 'suicide spins' at Tombola, because you're capped at £1 per play. Quite often what I'll do at normal casinos is if I've been playing a while, and my balance is down to the last £40 to £50 or so, I'll just fire up Immortal Romance and quickspin on £3 play, to see if I can get my balance back up quickly, needless to say this doesn't usually work
(But it does occasionally.)
I'd have done the same at Tombola, if I could have played that Bubbles game at £5 per play or similar, I would have done, but you've just got to stay at a max of £1, you can't turboplay, you can't autoplay (except for 10 spins at a time on the slots), you've just got to let things move at their own pace, and when you're playing low variance games at 98.5% RTP, that means there's every chance of a recovery.
And so it was that I found myself with a balance of over £150 this morning, I had to forefeit about £18 of bonus funds from that balance to make a withdrawal but it was still a profit of over £110, and I'd had a serious amount of playtime too.
Moreover, once you accept that the place just runs at its own pace and in its own way, I didn't even mind clicking on the button every time to start a round of Bubbles, I think we're so conditioned now to think that games have to be FAST and LOUD and HIGH RISK and VOLATILE, that in the final analysis I found it rather pleasant to just be chilling out, and getting excited when I managed to fill the £20 jar up
