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!

That's easy! Just take one extra day from the conference...say you have many new things to catch in London!!

It's really a HUGE Fun-Fair. The ones I have gone to locally are all normal ones, nothing as exuberant as that Winter Wonderland. All those rides are all heart-attacking ones...not for weak-hearted people I guess. Unless you can be like My Bean! Hahaha.

OMG!!! That is so wonderful Jelena darling! To think that all that is at Hyde Park, London! Oh boy, wish I was still there! Hahaha. It looks like it's a permanent setup...is that so?

A quick question? Hmmm....okay...here's a quick answer...YES!!! But waaaaaaaait a minute!!! You won't get them if you're not a member at the casino yet! You need to sign up first, take up whatever other freebies the casino is offering, and probably need to make a deposit later on too. THEN you can take all these extra free spins! Hmm...that wasn't such a quick answer, was it?

You're most welcome.

Ooh boy...you have suddenly become so tiny I could hardly see you Allysa! Are you still there? Just kidding! The best way to learn things in gambling is to spend lots of time playing in the fun mode first!!! You'll get the experience on the game, you'll get the know-how on the game, and you'll also see how it can eat you up alive and leave you dead, not literally of course, hehehe, but it's learning all the worse things as you become more experienced, WITHOUT getting yourself burnt to ashes!!!

Hehehe...that shows you as a true newbie Allysa! Not in the games that you couldn't find...but in the nickname you had used to refer to our dear friend here 'Fiekie' (never mind the 247 - it's probably his lucky 3 numbers! ). Mr Casino Tournament is his personal TITLE here in Askgamblers. Just as all of other members have a title too, except for newly joined newbies like you. You'll get your title very soon enough!

As a newbie, I wouldn't recommend you to try any of such tricks though! It's not advisable for newbies, and not even recommended for any experienced gamblers, except for ignorant ones. Well, ignorance can get away with many things in life, but with casinos, you can get away only a few times, after which the casinos will eventually catch you doing it and confiscate all your winnings. Or worse still, ban you from playing at all their group casinos! When I was a newbie like you, I went bonus-hunting. No-deposit free chips and no-deposit free spins were my prime target. Anywhere that had them, I was there to grab them. Until one fine day, the casinos finally caught me by the neck, labelled me a 'bonus abuser', and closed my accounts. Never could reactivate them till this day! So don't you go hunting for trouble now! Be a newbie and learn things the right way!

Ah,,,good...good! Hope you'll get the good free spins on your next try!

Damn!
