I asked the Sloto rep about it - and was VERY disappointed with his reply.
He said the Scary Rich slots are set to $2 max to prevent "bonus abuse" (betting big, getting a huge win and "grinding out" WR on low variance slots at 1c/line)
This does not wash with me at all; what about when the player doesn't hit the big win & loses all his money in a matter of minutes...?
I call that GAMBLING, not "bonus abuse".
Funny thing is, this is the exact opposite of what Club World have done to stop "abuse" there! (They increased the minimum bet instead of lowering the max).
Anyway, I said "What about people who are playing WITHOUT a bonus then?".
He said they were looking into way to allow those players to bet bigger.
We're talking about
slots here for goodness sake - to me this is all nonsense!
