So just a general question there as one thing Ive always noticed since joining up is I feel I'm the only one that mentions the slots I actually play, like your crystal waters, jackpot pinatas, Aztecs, goldbeard etc...

I have looked around and mainly alot share similar slots as well, going from club world, or bovada, slots lv, raging bull etc... Which I know some are of the bovada group. But there are a lot of the same slots throughout.

But like I have looked around for places with simply different slots than RTG for US players and haven't found any. And when I see people here talking it's always about slots I never heard of and I'm only about a year now for online stuff, but I just am curious as to where people go outside of the bovada type groups.

The one thing I do know is bovada games while never the talk of the town it seem, hit nicely for the most part. And bovada has paid every time without any funny business which I really appreciate. My dad and I have been playing a year now and our winnings are pretty remarkable, but I mean as I said nobody seems to talk bovada around here and I'm feeling I'm missing out on something else possibly. I'd love to have a fall back site or two perhaps.

Well first off, in case you didn't know, Club World Group and Raging Bull (with it's sister Grand Fortune) got sucked over to the dark side around the start of this year (rogueville) and I have to strongly advise against playing at these places any more.

Bovada ONLY accepts American players - so naturally there aren't all that many members here that are even allowed to play there.

Although I don't live in the USA myself, I have been studying and promoting US facing casinos on my websites for 10+ years now - so I do know quite a bit about a lot of them.
The second most popular software in the USA is Rival Gaming (which Bovada also have alongside RTG & Betsoft).
Sadly from a peak of 30+ decent Rival casinos a few years ago, there are only a handful left with I consider reputable and safe.

Then we have the Betsoft, WGS and Saucify single-software casinos, and Pragmatic Play Multi-software.
Finally the "stand-alone" softwares like SlotLand, Win-a-day, 3Dice and a few others.

As a promoter of casinos, I do see a fair amount of people playing at ALL the different variants above, though RTG & Rival are definitely the most popular. Why no-one here seems to play these places much is a bit of a mystery to me too :confused:

3Dice all the way. They don't have an affiliate system so you don't see it promoted and are more likely to discover it via word of mouth. Their games are fun (until they hate you :rolleyes:), their payout times are amazing, they have a unique "safe" where you can transfer money "out of the way" while you decide whether to play it or withdraw, chat feature is unique and fun... What else? Oh, and they routinely offer free tournaments where you can win real money and support is topnotch.

They are literally the only ones I play frequently that I trust 100%. I play the Bovada group when I want to play Rival or limited RTG games and haven't had any issues, but you do see problems pop up here on the boards from time to time. I do also trust Slotland & Winaday, but have never, ever cashed out there so I don't play much.

eta: Forgot to add another cool feature: the rainy day fund. They'll "front" you a bit that you pay back on your next withdrawal.
 
I play at Bovada quite a bit..quick payout to bitcoin. I also play at Superior Casino which I have had great experience with. The withdraw limit is $500.00 a day and its

about 24 hours to hit bitcoin but always there.

Well I would love to. I did try out RTG for real money for the first time this year at Grand Fortune and I would have been ripped off had it not been for Jason on here sorting things out. Also If I remember correctly you contacted him and directed him to the Thread I made, so again thanks for that :thumbsup:

I am terrified to play there anytime soon as they requested I send my ID again after having gone through the trouble of buying a scanner/printer to send them the ridiculous Authorization Form the first time.

So I don't know of anywhere that seems safe. I also didn't like that the minimum cashout was $100. Sadly I really enjoyed their slots and would definitely play at an RTG Casino again if I could be bothered to go through the trouble of finding somewhere that's reputable, safe and honest.

I'll be lazy and ask if you would recommend one or two (UK based). :D :thumbsup:

Well you could just look at the USA page on my website - it's only 1 click away in my signature! :p

The best for UK players I would have to say are Extreme and Slotastic.
If you don't take bonuses, then Sloto'Cash would be 2nd choice (no bonuses for UK players).
I would also have said iNetBet - but they are 3 weeks late with my commission pay and not answering e-mails or PM's, so I'm starting to get worried that something may be going on there... :mad:


3Dice all the way. They don't have an affiliate system so you don't see it promoted and are more likely to discover it via word of mouth.
They originally DID have an affiliate rev-share system (albeit very poor) and I spent a LOT of time creating a special page to promote them.
But after a year or so they changed to a worse system which saw me send them about 40 players, but only get any commission for 6... :(
After that I had to stop promoting as it just wasn't worth it.

I have NEVER understood why they didn't go the affiliate route as it would have dramatically increased their player base - I can only assume that they wanted to stay as just a small, niche casino for some reason... :confused:

What type of hits have some of you had on 3dice? Hits or nice cash outs, it's ok just brag away hah love hearing bout those big hitters! But I will say I jumped on and did some practice and I know that's not really indicative of playing but I was a tad underwhelmed in terms of even getting anything in a few practice sessions. Not that bovada is always amazing but I enjoy that I seem to rarely go more than 3 or 4 spins without even a small 20 cent, or 50, 1.00 hit etc... Was spinning a few sessions and literally i think a few times I spun like 15 spins, maybe 20 once without even a single measly 2 dollar hit or what have you, just nada. But I mean I'll still actually try it eventually, just curious what types of hits and cash outs folks have seen there on a regular basis.

I will say my year of bovada has been amazing, I can't complain... I mean I've made some money aside from some cold spells but I really have to be happy what I've made there so far

Well that's a bummer!

Maybe for quality of service/support? No telling.

3D is VERY hit or miss. If a game hates you today, it hates you. lol But I had a run last week betting on Medieval Moolah, small little deposit of $25, .60 to .90 to $1.20 bets that got me up to about 700 in a short time before I cashed out. Fortune Falls is usually kind to me, one of my first nice wins at 3dice was five butterflies on a .50 bet which ended up, IIRC, to be around $800. But I'm a super low-roller!

I'd recommend trying out the free tourneys to get a better feel for the games, also.

Oh wow that's decent, 800 on a 50 cent? That's pretty damn nice Labeled. I am typically a 40 cent roller to build a few when I deposit lower, but in a 50, 100 or so deposit im a 1-2.00 roller with occasional shots at 5 and 10 bucks.

At bovada on 40 cents my highest high I can remember has been about 170 bucks. My biggest regular roll so far was 4,000 bucks off jackpot pinatas at 2.00 a spin, got 5 pink pinatas.

Speaking of that game... I've taken note now and how in the world has that game not been cracked already? 1.2 mil or whatever it is now, but I mean it's been since I think last year still. Unless people just don't roll 5+ on it often.

I'm curious what would happen hitting 5 bulls at 1 or 2 bucks, that's typically where I'm at when I play it.

Cheers big guy :thumbsup:

I'll have a little nibble sometime again in the next couple of months...I'll be sure to sign up through one of your links ;)

Hopefully Inetbet pay you your dues, fingers crossed, otherwise you can always anti-promote them :cool:

Thanks & GLuck KK
 
I have seen some good reviews about Bitstarz and Casino Extreme. I am going to try Bitstarz next month. I agree about 3 dice fun place but the long losing streaks will freeze you. I am sadly on one now on the new platform. Where ever you play please read all the terms if you take a bonus. Good luck :).
 
I stick to basically three places - Slotocash, Uptown Aces, and to a lesser extent, 3Dice.

Though if I had to pick a desert island casino, it would be 3Dice. Yes, it's hot or cold, but when you are on a hot streak, it's so much fun. While I've gotten some really good hits on 3Dice, I have to be honest, and say that my very best hits were on Slotocash and Uptown (in terms of win as a function of my bet size).

The downside to RTG, though, is that slot wins are capped at 50,000x your line bet, i.e. for example, if you were betting 0.25 on a slot, the MOST you could win from that spin is $500, after which the slot freezes, displays the win, and returns to normal mode. How often does that happen? I have only once hit the max win cap, but I still just don't like even the IDEA of a cap. But I survive, they are still fun to play, lol.
 
So I checked out slotocash, and they have a lot of similar games that I play on bovada. However even tho they are the same games they look different and feel different, like goldbeard on bovada looks different than goldbeard in slotocash.. I can't remember which casinos I've tried but they were similar to slotocash and man I can't ever get going in that style... Not sure what or why it's different but it's like I've tried those places and I just can't even get anything to entice me to keep playing there, it's why I always end up back on bovada. But maybe it's just needing more time I guess..

I'm just really trying to find a good second home so to speak when I'm cold on bovada. It seems like being hot somewhere else while cold somewhere shouldnt be to to hard to accomplish, but I know that it is

I don't know the FULL details, but it was reported many years ago that the Bodog/Bovada group bought the full rights to the RTG games they had, meaning they didn't HAVE to conform to any subsequent updates and allowing them to possibly change the games if they wanted to.

I honestly do not understand the FULL implications of this, except to say it does mean that Bovada COULD have different versions of these games from all the other RTG casinos.
As I am in the UK, I can't actually play there to see if I can spot any differences... :(

I think they are the original RTG games. The betting increments are from years ago. The minimum bet is penny per line or 2 cents then goes to dollar and then 2 and 5 dollars.

Yes, they have. It does make a difference in my opinion.
Personally, I prefer Bovada/Slots LV games - first, they are up to date in terms of coding and work well on mobile (android).
Second, they have some unique games that the rest of RTG don't have, like single deck blackjack with the lowest house edge you can get.
Three, they have separate progressive jackpot pools - and they actually pay out from time to time. I don't think any of the "main" RTG mega progressive slots ever paid.

P.S Btw KK, they took BetSoft games off few months ago. They do have some propriety games though, such as Bulletproof babes for example.
 
How do those tourneys work? What type of buy in, is it a timed thing where whoever racks up the most wins? What type of cash wins are there, ballpark that is
 
So I emailed 3dice support a few days ago, nothing. I read some threads and they're based in US, but are they accepting us players currently?

Overall, little disappointed as people seem to rave here but even bovada is quick on the customer service side of things, disappointed haven't heard a word from 3Dice on the whole needing a passport number to register.
 
You are better off using the live chat support since you don't need to have an account in order to talk to them. There is always one support person on duty at any point in time. At this time of writing this post. It is "Ellen". When you have the 3dice webpage open, click on her name in chat and select "PM" and chat away. I have never used e-mail as a method of support on here and the live support is fast. I was streaming my session on 3dice about a week ago and a viewer who was US based tried to join the casino and ran into the same issue. He used live chat and was able to make an account quickly so I know it works.
