I did this, but thankfully the casino (Wolfy Casino) prevented the spin from going through (the fact that many casinos don't prevent you from accidentally going over the max allowed is predatory IMO) On Pragmatic's Hyperplay, I have a habit of clicking and pressing space immediately after. I accidentally clicked near the right-most of the stake bar and by habit pressed space after, this would've been an over $20 spin. Has anyone done this, were you prevented from doing this or did the casino have a-hole design, leaving you screwed out of a bonus?

Betting as in sports betting? Thought Pinnacle doesn't do sports bonuses (most reduced juice books don't). I'd love to see what the bonus you're saying that you were denied was. Or are you talking about the casino. They didn't have a casino in the beginning, not for ~6 years after their inception (at least according to wiki). Please give us more details about the bonus!

Absolute Zero: Free Spins that gave nothing
lucks_maximus replied to lucks_maximus's topic in Best and Worst
Since I started this topic I got zero-paying bonuses several more times. Way more common than I thought... interesting design decision by the slot makers! The existence of bonus buys could be a reason for it: if bonus buys didn't exist, the slot could easily just not give a bonus if the spin was not going to pay (though I'm curious if bad paying bonuses make players play more, not wanting to end a session or leave a slot on a nothing bonus. Slot providers probably know what they're doing). -
What’s the thing you don’t like about online casinos?
lucks_maximus replied to Player101's topic in Casinos General
Some of them block any game that has 'jackpots' (not true jackpots, just what the game calls their fixed prizes, usually in "3 pots" style games) when wagering bonus... -
If withdrawal lock feature is absent, could someone use self exclusion tool (temporary/short break) to stop themself? I don't know how those work. Never wanted to cancel a withdrawal, I don't have that itch for w.e reason.

Settlement is not an admission of fault, is it? Also probably came with an NDA

Whats your style for cashing out after a big win?
lucks_maximus replied to loceff13's topic in Casino Polls & Surveys
If there is sports betting available and the odds aren't absolutely horrendous, most of it will stay in. Maybe withdraw a hundred or two. If it's just for the casino (a sportsbook is absent or they have horrendous odds), withdraw most of it, like 80-90%. I've noticed some casinos have in there terms you're not allowed to go from high volatility to low volatility slots after a big win when wagering a bonus (jeez). -

How'd you get into slots? And gambling?
lucks_maximus replied to lucks_maximus's topic in Casino Q&A Hub - Ask, Answer, Share
I first got the idea to try sports betting when I was with my friends: they started talking about stocks and this sparked an idea in my head to gamble on sports (I guess I associated stocks with betting to some degree). I was obsessed with a particular sport throughout my teens and young adulthood (never once having the thought to bet on it until that fated day) and it may have helped me get lucky on my first day of betting. My account was suspended on that very first day before the event was even finished, pending verification (wasn't attempting a withdrawal). Several years later the sportsbook held a promo where you bet on NBA and you get entered into a raffle. I think I just threw a random bet (not interested in basketball) at even odds. I got the lowest prize of 25 free spins on Majestic King (Spinomenal) and this was my first time playing slots (still have the email): No big win, which is probably why I didn't touch slots again for another 2 years after this. Late last year I checked the casino, which I never used to do. I think what spurred me to even check the casino section was some youtube videos I had recently seen on a notorious gambling streamer. This guy was like the poster child of gambling addiction, and his emotions seemed real unlike most streamers. Somehow, that made me curious about the casino section of my sportsbook. Checking the casino offers, there was a Pragmatic-sponsored tournament. The prizes looked decent so I decided to try it. Got 2nd place and started searching up info on slots to see if I can 'prepare' for the next tournament. Found out that there were forums that do contests/giveaways, wow! Obsessively started looking for these. Probably joined 5 different sites in under a week . Now I'm here -
I don't know, from that video, it just looks like a volatile 94% slot doing volatile 94% slot things. Which is not to say there aren't slot providers that cheat. Companies in various industries cheat even when they are profitable without cheating, which destroys the often parroted narrative that casinos won't cheat because they don't have to or that it's too risky. There are ways and means around audits and regulations. I myself am suspicious of one particular provider, but I am in a weakly regulated jurisdiction, which probably matters.
