Please pardon my 'ignorance'...but is Casino 1 Club the same casino as Casino 1? I don't think so, right? Well, I haven't played at Casino 1 Club, but I have deposited and played at Casino 1. I had a pretty good time there, where my deposit and 400% bonus money could be played on Dead Or Alive. I didn't win anything in the end, but I had a good time. If NetEnt isn't available for play with bonus money, I won't bother signing up at all, just as with GamesOS casinos like ParadiseWin and VIPStakes casinos. I made a mistake at Punchbets and Wintika by depositing there, only to learn that bonus money could only be played on their GamesOS games, which I don't like at all. For me, no NetEnt games, no deposits. Period!

In this case, and in most other cases too, Michael Jackson has always said the right words...YOU ARE NOT ALONE! I had to undergo some drastic changes in my everyday gambling habits ever since all my privileges were taken away and removed from me. I couldn't play my favourite money-making games anymore, because all bonuses were banned from me, then the games went for an upgrade and never played the same again. I have tried to replace those few money-making games with other games but have failed miserably till this day. I don't think it would ever be possible for me to be like how I was back in the years of 2013 and 2014. Those were the best 2 years in my entire gambling life! In 2015, I had to struggle from square one, with zero balance in my Neteller, and starting everything all over again like a totally fresh gambler. That was a very painful struggle...a very long and enduring struggle...but I've come a long way since then and have since settled down with my 'new' gambling habits! No more betting with big bets. No more playing everyday as I like. Scavenging whatever free spins and its winnings to play on those few favourite games of mine, like DOA, Creature from the Black Lagoon, and Pimped, amongst others. Despite everything, I am very thankful that I still have some Playtech casinos that keep me going on and on, so far. Grand Reef and African Palace keeps me playing a few times a week with their free spins and quizzes, especially with their 'Hangman' word quizzes, 'Where in the World' quizzes and the 'Picture Jigsaw Puzzles', which I have been successful in almost every one of them! Those frequent $10 - $25 prizes that I have won kept me playing on Safari Heat and Blade every week for free, well almost! I only have to make a deposit when my fingers get so itchy and there aren't any such quizzes around to win some free chips. My deposits now are mostly in $10 amounts wherever possible, except at Grand Reef and African Palace casinos, where the minimum deposit amount is $25. My habits have since seen a drastically total change from what I have been doing 2 years ago, but I ain't complaining. Big wins and big withdrawals are all a thing of the past for me now. Today, I'm nothing more than a small fish still swimming in the vast ocean...and surviving!

OMG! I wish I can give you a good answer mate, but I don't know the answer! I can still use my Neteller virtual account, even though I'm not using its Prepaid Mastercard, so I'm wondering, for all of you who uses a Prepaid Card now, are you still able to use Neteller's virtual account for depositing into online casinos? If I make a withdrawal into my bank account, the money would be in within 3 days. That's pretty fast enough for me, so I ain't complaining. From thereon, I use my bank's card for everyday use.

Yes, Skrill...my bad.

Well mate, it is better to get something back rather than nothing at all...like in my case many years ago. Come to think of it...I was so infuriated at that time that I lost my senses and gave up chasing on that $1500! That was a lot maaan!!! What a stupid mistake on my part that was...but then again...I was still INEXPERIENCED!!!

Yes, I remember your case quite well. I still cannot reason out why Neteller didn't inform you of the refund...that shouldn't have been that way at all!

Aaaaah! I see! That axe-throwing Apache guy can be just as elusive as the boss himself. But you'll get him one of these days though... I thought it was missus Jesse...she likes to cook huge nice meals for the boys...so that might have wiped out your budget!

Missus Jesse???

Looks very interesting game that... Congrats Darg...very nice wins!

Wish I could test Jesse and his outlaw boys in a new showdown environment... but I'm still suffering from the old wounds they gave me!

Guru mate, the casino review info states that 21 Dukes Casino has a Costa Rica license...but the website shows that it is having a Curacao EGaming License. Must an old mistake in the info I guess?

Is this happening only in certain European countries...or is happening in Asia too? I'm not using their Mastercard anymore since my last mishap, so I have no idea if this convenience would be stopped for my country too. Anyway, it wouldn't affect me at all...I just want to know.

That's was very quick! Well, I guess it is easier to get back small amounts of money, unlike for bigger sums. In my case, both the merchants had refused to refund my money used by the hackers to purchase goods, but Neteller finally 'convinced' them to pay up or faced charges. Then they paid.

Yeah, I have to do the same thing too...but it's all unnecessary hassles on our part...which the casino should be doing on their part for our convenience. Anyway, any casino that doesn't automatically clear my balance gets the cold treatment from me nowadays. The Winter Olympics runs everyday of the week of every year, all in my deep freezer!

Here's my old review on the casino...they cheated me $1500!!! http://www.askgamblers.com/casino/7reels-casino-review-r4257

If you must know mate...7 Reels Casino was the main reason why I finally closed ALL my accounts at every Winward Group casinos!!! About 13 years or so ago, 7 Reels casino cheated me out of my winnings...a few hundred bucks, can't remember how much, which they refused to pay me. I did not break any rules, I did not do anything wrong, my winnings came from a deposit without taking any bonus...yet they claimed I had taken a bonus and refused to pay anything!!! After much arguments, I got so infuriated with them, their support team, even with their manager later on, that I immediately closed all my accounts at Winward casinos! I can NEVER NEVER trust them ever again!

Just one piece of advice though Bee2121...NEVER leave any big amounts of cash in either your PayPal, Skrill, Neteller or whatever Card! Hackers are everywhere...and they're constantly aiming for people who like to leave big amounts of cash lying in their card accounts...which makes them such sweet 'victims' for free money! Don't ever think that PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, or any other e-wallet provider are fool-proof against hackers!!!

I really hate it when NetEnt and other providers start removing the playlines option! Whatever small balance we may have left, just cannot be zeroed out, so having to leave the balance as it is. What if you make a new deposit without taking any bonus...but that few cents balance is still around...which would also include its previous non-completed wagering requirements, if that balance has not been automatically removed by the system!!! That would be a blardy dirty tricky advantage for the casinos and the game providers! The casino system must therefore ensure that all previous balances are completely removed upon a new deposit being made...with or without taking bonuses!

21 Dukes was a casino where I had closed my account many many years ago. Can't remember whether they used a Top Game platform, or was it a Playtech casino. That was more than 10 years ago. I just rechecked...and my email is still in their records...so I cannot sign up to take up this new offer. Ah well, 21 Dukes wasn't good back in those years...so I don't think I'll be missing anything now.

You're most welcome Bee2121. Glad I've made it very clear for you.

I won't go into great details, so I'll just be brief. On downloaded versions, your play is recorded and kept in your data info file, and this is referred to each time you load up the game again the next time. All your game preferences and the last settings are reused, so in a way, you are continuing your play from where you had left off the last time. This is especially true for Playtech games. I cannot play RTG, Rival, Top Game/Pragmatic, and the other downloadable software anymore, so I cannot be sure of those. For Microgaming, there is a provision for you to 'restore' your last game and settings, if you wish, or simply start anew. Restoring your previous game would take you back to where you had left off, so continuing back on the game. Nonetheless, whether you 'continue' on or start 'fresh', how the game would play and pay is directly linked to the casino's main server. However, I do believe than even so, the game would 'continue' on from where you had left off. Meaning, if you had a big win on your last play, you can expect the game to be cold for some period of time. If playing directly online in Instant Play mode, I dare not say the same thing, because my preference and experience has always been for the downloaded version. I've tried playing the same favourite Playtech games in the instant play mode and I must say that I do not like it at all! Nope, they just don't play the same way!

Hmmm...I guess I will always remain 'THE ONLY ONE' who doesn't play any gambling games on my mobile! But I'm not perturbed by it, and I don't think I'll be jumping into the same boat either, not ever!

Well, Sorenjo mate, you are not alone. Even I myself have been like that numerous of times before this...losing big money with my big wins, and coming back to square one in the end. Back in my early years...way before my 'Playtech Master' time...hahaha...I had spent my first 3 years playing in the fun mode and putting it into practice in the real mode, on and off, on and off, keeping track of the differences between the two modes. They don't play the same, but I've said this a thousand times before, right?! But after numerous trials and errors, you do get a very good knowledge of the game, and what sort of 'differences' to expect when playing in the real mode. I practised on only one game at a time...and that was on Dolphin Reef! Then I went on doing the same thing on other games, like Safari Heat, Panther Moon, and even on Mr Cashback. I spent more than 10 years doing this on a regular basis...so you can imagine the amount of time I had spent on each game, and the amount of 'data' stored in my brain! Hahaha. Nowadays, I play in the fun mode to get to know the game's traits, that's all. How it plays and pays. The games have become so sophisticated nowadays that I don't think it would be possible to achieve what I had achieved with those old Playtech games. Even those games too have now been updated and they are playing differently than before! I have also done something similar on Dead Or Alive, but all that 'old data' in my brain doesn't compute now, because Dead Or Alive has changed too! In summary, there's nothing we can do much in trying to 'compute' the traits of any modern game. Game Providers have come a long way since those early years...and they know what need to done when the time comes. If and when we do get ahead with any game, they'll know about it sooner or later, they'll make some amendments to the game...and you'll be back to square one once again! But, it's good if you can do what you plan to do, Sorenjo mate. You may not make any new wins with all those collected data, but you'll gain a lot of practical experience on the game, and know it well too. Winning on it is a totally different matter altogether!

I haven't tried 7 Sins yet. Both DOA and Pimped has been going badly for me since last month! Nothing good so far. Hope you'll have a better time though.

Okay...as you please, Mr Casino Tournament man!
