Front Runners ........ 2014

[cocopop3011]

Reading another post just now got me thinking about the year ahead of us. I'm really excited to see what this year brings us all...will any of us be millionaires by the end of 2014? Will we all be filing for divorce lol (kidding) who knows one of us could even own our casino by the end of the year...my bets are on Valdes being the most likely for that one...who knows what the hand of fate is going to deal us and also what lies ahead for our casinos too! Which ones will still be open at the end of the year and which will be closed?

 

The only names I am seeing so far this year (and I know its early days) are NetEnt and Microgaming I think both these software providers are leading the path for all the others to follow behind!

 

Playtech casinos are really taking a back seat at the moment for me, I really don't think they have excelled recently in a lot of their new slot releases and for that reason are slowly following on behind many many others!

 

I think casinos like William Hill really need to up their game when it comes to bonuses and customer loyalties. For me all the massive high street names I've grew up with through my fathers love of horse racing and football like William Hill, BetFred and Coral are slowly disappearing!! I know Ladbrokes and Paddy Power are doing very well but whenever you read an article about a player scooping a million pound jackpot, or another playing winning thousands on another slot...it's never these old school names you read is it?

 

Anyway, as I wasn't here New Years Eve I just want to wish everyone at Ask Gamblers, new members reading this and old members reading this....I wish you all a very lucky and fortunate year ahead ... And don't forget if you do win your millions...never forget your friends here at ask gamblers ...hint hint!

If I win Million bucks or something like that I will play nonstop Dead or Alive until I get 5 scatters or 5 wilds.

I think you forgot to mention that you'll play it at 9.00 bet per spin, and that we'll race between each other until we get the ultimate win of 10000 x bet!

Hi Cocopop,

Interesting thread. I totally understand what you feel about Playtechcasinos like William Hill, especially when it comes to slots. On the other hand, for a roulette player like me this casino is one of the last resorts to play with a bonus. Most casinos only give bonusses for slots and scratchcard, but not for roulette. Not WHG (or Winner, but I can't play there anymore  , since they pulled out of home country), and on top of that they give their loyal depositors a nice monthly free cash amount. You can do whatever you want with that money. Withdraw, or play any game you like.

Kind regards,

Seat

Too bad now though...only Prestige Casino is giving me the monthly loyalty no-wagering bonuses every month. None from 21Nova, Joyland and EuroGrand since November last year. Makes quite a big impact for me without those lovely freebies. Perhaps for you too Seat?

Hey Afi,

Only SkyKings and William Hill are expressing their monthly customer appreciation  , EuroGrand gives a weekly 10 euro cashback, and nothing from 21Nova and Prestige. I must add that I did hit those 2 last casinos hard, especially 21Nova. I am netto gainer at these 2, and can therefore understand why they don't give free money. Currently working hard on Sky Kings

WOW! Great going there Seat! For me, its 21Nova gain, the other 3 losses, but only just, hehehe. Comrade in arms we are...up against WHG!

I don't get the prestige no wager bonuses anymore. I made a withdrawal for about £50 I think and they told me then I would no longer get any bonuses from them so I haven't played there since.

Eh? Did they say why? Any special reason for disqualifying you from getting those bonuses Sharon? GBP50 withdrawal isn't much at all, unless you're also a nett gainer at their casino like ToiletSeat. I'm getting my monthly $20 still...hope they don't stop!

What's a nett gainer?

 

I don't know why they stopped it but I was only getting a £2 free no wager bonus anyway lol not £20! I managed to play Spin2Millions off the £2 and had like a £25 spin for 5 lines 1p a line, and then it went to £50 and I just decided to withdraw it as it was free. When I contact live help and they said I'd be forfeiting all my future bonuses with them I just thought this was normal procedure! And I assumed it was because I was cashing out free money. I don't play there now.

Nett gainer = making an overall profit from the casino, as opposed to an overall loss (total deposits vs total withdrawals). 

 

Still doesn't make any sense to me Sharon. Their loyalty bonuses and cashback refunds (not deposit bonuses) are all wager-free with no restrictions at all! You are free to play any game you want, or simply withdraw it. Cannot understand what you did that 'forfeits your future bonuses' by that small withdrawal!   

[Afi4wins]

Most probably, your betting actions made you to be considered as a 'high risk' player, because you only played 5 lines at 1p bet per line, made a few spins, made a big win...and immediately cashed out! Casinos don't like this!

Hehehe but we players do 

 

If anything that's a way to balance out the universe. Mostly every casino would slap us with Wagering requirements to give them more of the edge....winning big for a small bet like 5 lines at 1p is a way to catch some of our breaks. We've been working our @s*#es off trying to fulfill them! (If your wondering I've missed every post and started here trying to piece everything from the last post)

[Afi4wins]

True indeed Icymod! Even I myself do that quite frequently, but only on 20-or-more-payline games. I would start playing with either 9 or 15 lines out of that 20 lines, at 1 cent bet per line, and only when the reels look good would I play the full 20 lines.

 

But Spin2Million is a 5-payline game, the minimum wager is indeed 1 cent (or pence) per line, so Sharon hasn't done anything wrong, and the casino shouldn't have 'forfeited' her future bonuses just for withdrawing GBP50! That's a bit unfair, if it's really just a first time occurrence for Sharon at the casino.

 

Have you tried writing back to them Sharon?
