Barca! That's what I like to see. You place some sick bets though @ 1200 euros. The biggest bet I ever placed was 1050 euros and of course I lost it. It's good when betting that big when a team is on a roll though. Might be the case for Barcelona for upcoming matches. Messi and Neymar were playing well. Where do you place your bets though? I do not like the following sentence -'Return' values are subject to maximum payouts as detailed in our rules.- It means they would not pay more than what's given in their terms and conditions for certain games I suppose. Straight up predatory in my opinion since you do take the risk. I'd check the terms and conditions very carefully if I were you.

The only time I see them posting the betsize is when it's convenient to them in case a progressive jackpot is won for instance. Lol Valdes! Some of us are still struggling to find that withdrawal button. As long we don't withdraw, the casinos will write about the big wins that never been in withdrawn in some cases. Bet they have a story about that Aussie guy from this forum somewhere too (leaving out losing it all back).

That sucks @ PSG. 0-2 ahead usually means it's a wrap. Know how it feels, I've been ****ed over myself during last minute of the game a couple times missing out on 700 euros because of a penalty or last minute goal. I like sportsbetting, been doing it for almost 14 years I'm guessing. I prefer games with high quotes though. Generally I would prefer not betting on friendlies (teams don't take the games seriously) and tricky away games with low quotes. The chance is big if you pick like 4 away games (big teams) that one of them will mess up. It's better to just choose one game with high quotes of 2.80 for instance and bet big. Best money to be made is during live betting when one team is behind for instance 0-1 and you still bet on a win. That can bring in a fortune if you place big bets. Or when you predict when a team is going to run hot. Like Barcelona during its glory days (Messi hattricks/Ronaldo hattricks) or with Real Madrid during their 22 winning matches in a row. That way it would be pay day every week lol. I knew both teams would be losing last week though. Had no money to bet against Real Madrid, and wouldn't dare to bet against Barcelona (my team).

I'm not a psychic but I do have the same opinion about the so called "mood". Sometimes this game can be dead for hundreds of spins with only marginal wins and endless teasing with two scatters but no bonus feature. If I would get a Wild Desire feature in the meantime it would usually award nothing (more teasing). I think it's better to just step away in case you feel the game has such a mood. My stubbornness cost me lots of money on this game chasing features and what not while known damn well the game was cold. That's at least how I feel about it even though the game should be random and the game having no memory.

Lol makes the two of us then! Generally the higher I bet the lower my wins are in terms of rewards when speaking of the Wild Desire feature. I had some decent wins with 0.90 bets of couple hundred times my stake. Rarely do I get these type of hits when max betting. I low roll most of the time though because I simply am too scared to bet 3 euros per spin on this game. It can be highly addicting with that two scatter tease and swallow up bankrolls in no time if you don't quit and play another game.

Most of the time it concerns high rollers max. betting on a slot with 50/100 euros per spin. I think they deliberately leave out the betsize in order to lure players into having a try. I believe the max win on TwinSpin is 1,080x betsize. So winning 200K would only be possible if the player betted approximately 200 euros per spin. Those stories have to be taken with a grain of salt in my opinion. The average player obviously can't relate and I would even go ask far to call those stories misleading.

Haha nice one! Did you play the computerised version or the live version? I think I had a few misclicks before, but it always turned into a tragedy. I do see people "misclick" at the online live dealer tables often though, even when betting 10K on a hand only for them to get lucky getting a "3" after having "18".

Well many of us would have stopped when winning 1000 maybe? and that's why we would never have even made it that far. I know I messed up many times turning small deposits into a few K only to lose it all. Only a few weeks ago I messed up 520 euros from a zero deposit (5 free spins). Afterwards it usually makes me feel terrible usually. I guess we all been there at some point. However, 36K is a lot of money and I certainly would regret it. But if it's all a game and fun for you and you can afford it, then I guess it isn't a problem. High rolling like that could even turn a millionaire into a wreck. Props for trying though and high rolling with the casino's money Guess you had many small wins in quick succession to if I look at the Playcheck overview. None of them seem to exceed 200x betsize. So it isn't like you had a huge hit. So it's very remarkable you made it that far. Must have been a nice rollercoaster adventure though.

What on earth did I do to deserve this. Here goes the story; I've been waiting for that Wild Desire feature for like 6000 spins. On average it pops up every 400 spins I read. So I was really looking forward to it only to be ****ed over like this. I knew it would happen if it wouldn't turn another reel wild lol. Following this Wild Desire I had another 4 in like 200 spins and 3 of them paid nothing, while one paid 2.25. So much for that Wild Desire feature huh Haven't had a good one in 18 months or so.

Happy New Year guys, I guess the Asians are already in 2015?

Hi Ian, If it was just only a couple of bets by mistake, then Redbet might have excused you. I'm sure there are casinos that would grab every opportunity to confiscate winnings, but in my opinion is one of the better casinos which pay within 15-30 minutes if you followed the rules. As far your awareness campaign, I think it's a good initiative to warn players bonuses don't just come for free and there are always some terms attached. But then again, I think it would be pretty naive to assume casinos be giving away hundreds of euros without any conditions. All the best of luck though and a happy 2015!

I think that's the best way to look at it Valdes. It's basically a contract and I personally think online gambling definitely isn't for everyone. Sometimes you almost have to be some sort of lawyer to understand the terms and conditions since they tend to be very cryptic at times. Btw Happy New Year Valdes. May you and the rest of the AskGamblers crew have a great and healthy 2015!

Happy New Year to all guys and girls! May you all have a wonderful and healthy 2015! I have 3 reviews for this month: Game of Thrones http://www.askgamblers.com/video-slots/game-of-thrones-microgaming-game-review/#review-54a411ea7528f79d368b4567 Max Damage http://www.askgamblers.com/video-slots/max-damage-microgaming-game-review/#review-54a416a37528f76e378b4567 Cosmic Fortune http://www.askgamblers.com/progressive-slots/cosmic-fortune-netent-game-review/#review-54a4370c7528f762388b4578

Not to sound rude, but I think you absolutely stand no chance and are simply wasting your time. The clause you mention is very common in the industry and usually is clearly written in the terms and condition page of a casino. I know for a fact it is at Redbet. When taking a bonus, there is a sentence asking you if you agree with the following bonus terms blah blah blah... Like you pointed out, the clause only applies if you use a bonus from the casino. I understand your way of thinking, and I'm sure many casinos profit from the fact that people fail to read the terms & conditions, but there is also another reason why online casinos do not allow high bets. Enabling high bets makes casinos vulnerable and attracts advantage players and could potentially lead to an +EV situation if the wagering requirements aren't high enough. That's why casinos use a max bet rule to protect themselves from these advantage players. It would be nice to see casinos applying some functionality to their games to restrict players from exceed the max bet when using a bonus though. Regarding the tracking of wagering done on a bonus. Redbet does offer the possibility to check on your bonus by visiting the "my account" tab and afterwards the "bonus" tab on the left. While it's unfortunate what happened to you, I'd say take it as a hard lesson learned and as a good reminder to always thoroughly read the terms and conditions before playing with a bonus to avoid these type of situations. Unfortunately you have no valid complaint though as you clearly breached their terms and it ended up costing you your winnings.

Lol the good ole DOA debate. Somebody hand me a shotgun so I can take out these Sheriffs by myself! Hate this game! My last 100 features produced one hit of 100x betsize and the rest in the 1-20x betsize range. I gotta admit, it's fun playing the game at the same time at multiple casinos though lol. Congratz to all winners though This game does more than just putting your persistence to the test haha

Good question! When I used to start playing slots, I usually would let the game spin for like 50-100 spins to see if I can trigger the free spins. Guess that was still some sort of discipline on my part back then. I would then just switch games if I didn't have any luck. Nowadays I just play until I hit free spins and see how much it pays. If it pays well, then I keep playing for another 20-30 spins to see what else the game got to offer. If you're running good, then you're running good! Downside is that it could take ages to trigger free spins lol. Had plenty of sessions where it would take 2,000 spins on Gonzo's Quest to trigger it. Very rare but it happened to me, and the result was a big hole in my bankroll. So my advice wouldn't be to chase it. Other occasions when I choose to switch games is when I just have the feeling it's running cold, like 20-30 dead spins in a row. Then I choose to move right away. Regarding bonuses, I think you're employing the right strategy to cash in on a big win. Let's say you won big and you still have some WR to go through, but you do want to be sure to cash out as much as possible, then it's best to play minimum bets on a low-variance slot (lowering variance) on a slot with a very high RTP (Blood Suckers for instance). This ensures that you don't lose too much while trying to meet your goal. However, pay attention to the terms and conditions of casinos since they sometimes have some odd terms in place which doesn't allow you to drop your betsize more than a specific percentage or a percentage of the bonus, or will consider you not "playing in the spirit of the bonus" etc. etc. Plenty of bullshit rules players have to deal with these days when taking a bonus, but you should always be weary. Otherwise it's usually waving goodbye to that nice win, and nobody wants that!

Interesting discussion guys. I too have always wondered what the max win is on this game, but never came to a final conclusion. No matter what theories or calculations I've made. But below is what the RedBet website says about the max win when you put your mouse cursor next to the game. The maximum win for the whole free spins round is 868,800 euros. I guess you'd have to bet 18 euros per spin, and during first three free spins you would have to fill up a row of wilds to complete a screen full of wilds after 3 free spins, then the maximum win would occur during 9 remaining free spins + 5 extra free spins lol. I bet the odds of that happening would equal winning the lottery 100 times!

My take on it is that you can definitely NOT making a living gambling, unless your name you're a professional gambler like Billy Walters or a pokerpro like Phil Ivey. Although I don't consider poker to fall in the category of gambling. You cannot make a living on the long term, simply because the odds are stacked against you in every game you play. Sure, you can have a decent win occasionally, but on the long term the odds will hold up for basically every game you play. Be it slots, blackjack, roulette... it doesn't really matter. Then we have the bonus question. I guess there are definitely bonuses around that give the player a +EV situation. Even then the edge would be extremely small and it would take a millions of spins to get ahead. And even then we have to ask ourselves, is it enough to make a "living" while gambling? Probably not if you consider the work put in and what you get out from it. I'd advise anyone having the illusion you can make a living from gambling to get a real job lol. 99,99% of us are not professional gamblers. Professional gamblers have self-control (like Valdes pointed out), proper bankroll management, calculated bets and spot out situations that make the house weak in live casinos. Be it card counting, edge sorting (recent Phil Ivey court case), cash back (+EV for some blackjack dude winning millions employing basic strategy in Vegas some time ago) etc. Some mentioned winning a progressive jackpot lol, well that would be equally to winning the lottery. How many progressive jackpot winners are there each year ? 50-100? When speaking of the big ones (Millions and up). Sorry, but don't be counting on it to happen lol. As for poker it's possible but you have to be real skilled, and even then the edge is small. In conclusion it's definitely not worth it, because there is no positive expectation in gambling. It's ups and downs and a long road of uncertainty which doesn't make it a recommendable road to assume making a living on. It's better to look at gambling as a form of entertainment with money you're prepared to lose, expecting nothing in return from it.

Thanks Afi I did cash out a few K this time, no worries. Took a 600 euro deposit though. I messed up several opportunities for a cash out in the past. Was even betting 12 euros per spin at one moment. Overall the wins were pretty disappointing if you only knew how many features I had with high bets, but ah well betting than losing everything

It seems OP is unsure whether she placed bets over the 5% maximum. It's definitely her responsibility to check the terms beforehand to prevent problems like this. 10Bet certainly doesn't seem like a place where I would play though. If a casino claims the player breached the terms, then they should provide the player with a thorough report of when and how it did happen after a player's request. The limitations of the software in the business still sickens me to my stomach, and I'm pretty sure it's for a very good reason it's kept intact. How many 'newbie' players who never bother to read t&c pages when playing at an online casino would fall victim to this? I can only imagine the billions of dollars online casinos confiscate (earn) based on the failure of consumers reading the terms and conditions or deliberate attempt on the casino part to let the terms and conditions do the work for them due to a lack of betting limits enforced on the software. It's 2014 and no one will tell me providers like NetEnt or Microgaming who can be very innovative as we all know, are not able to create a system that matches the bonus restrictions in relation to the gameplay and max betsize.

I voted Microgaming. According to the poll it's a tie between Microgaming and Playtech. They are the main three anyway - Microgaming, NetEnt and Playtech. Although some other software providers seem to come up with some brilliant games as well. So it's better to be open minded when it comes to picking games.

Sorry to hear about your health issues Seat. Hope you get well very soon and the process will be as smoothly as possible. Can only imagine what a discomfort it is. All the best of luck!

Great wins guys @ DOA ! I have had tons of features on this game past few days and can't make it across the 10-20x bet mark. Some even had the nerve to humiliate me with 1x betsize. After a gambling free hiatus for a couple of weeks, I decided to start off again at Redbet and 32Red with a gambling spree that lasted like 96 hours. Basically I've been high rolling pretty much the past couple of days, and hit an extraordinary amount of features and re-triggers on bets ranging from 2-8 euros. It's a miracle I didn't go bust since they all paid trash. Hardly had any wins exceeding that qualify for this thread (100x betsize). The Gonzo's Quest win below took 50 free spins in total to come to that win, so in that respect it's not an extreme big win considering the betsize. Had like 30 free spins before that as well, which didn't do much either. Had 10+ features on Throne of Egypt on 6.25 betsize. None of them paid more than 5-15x betsize. It gets to the point it drives you insane, knowing your betting high and hitting features, but not getting the big wins you're supposed to have like when you're lowrolling. I think I need another break after this lol, still a bit of profit...but I guess I'm just tired of this ***** (excuse my language). Below are the best screenshots of my journey. Gonzo's Quest - 380x betsize TwinSpin - 160x betsize TwinSpin - 160x betsize TwinSpin - 162x betsize (I'm starting to get obsessed with the full screen of symbols. Can't seem to get it anymore, no matter how long I play) Girls With Guns II - 137x betsize (Another wild on reel 4 and it would have been a superhit!) Immortal Romance - 120x betsize (Another obsession for me is, hitting a decent wild vine feature or wild celebration feature on The Finer Reels of Life. Had plenty of them while high rolling, one even with 3 reels wild awarding me a lousy 40x betsize on Finer Reels of Life.

Way to go Afi! At least you go through all stages @ depositing, reversing, withdrawing lol Too bad that DOA didn't work out the way it should! Should have been a 2000x bet! Arghhhh

As long you managed to cash out, it's all good I suppose. It's hard to win when luck isn't on your side. Maybe sooner or later... I did see u have a nice DOA hit though on a small bet Wish I would get five scatters once when I experiment with 7.20 euro bets lol
