Wtf is going?

A whole year and only 3 times have I made a slight profit on hundreds of deposits on 4 popular UK casinos!I’m £33,500 down since a year ago on an average of £1.50 spins. They were £2 – £3 spins and about 10% on a £5 before Xmas.

From Xmas I reduced down to 2 casinos, hoping to get some movement and it just got worse, so I vastly dropped my stakes to mostly 20p, playing 10p – 40p max.

I’ve been spending around £800 a month and getting bonuses is almost impossible now! £900 in this month, 2 bonuses on 20p and 40p, 1x £3 bonus and yet another £0 bonus!

I had 7 last month, 6 on the same game. £0, £1.66, £0, £0, £1.59, £0….how can this be? RTP means shit all these days.

My supposed RTP on the 20+ games I play are mostly 40% or less, in many thousands of spins! It’s not like I have ever won big on that site the, but did ok until 3 years ago!  Now it’s a yearly pattern of 364 days of complete shit, then 1 day of big wins all over the place. Virtually the same thing, 3 years running!

How is it, I watch people online, people in chat on streams have decent regular bonuses/wins, yet I’m completely cut out? It’s not like the RTP has dropped much. I play on games that are around 94% – 96%, yet it means nothing!

There are more than 10 popular games I cannot bonus in 2000 spins, some over 3000 and I’m still trying to get them!

Pizza pizza pizza has had £3k off me on around £1.50 stake and no bonus since October. The 2 bonuses I did get before were under 20x and losses. Primal has had £4k on £2, no bonus yet, but gave up on it! Rotten on 40p has had £1,400 off me, took months to bonus, got 6 in 2 days and got 2 totalling £3.25 and 4 of £0. How? Then it won’t bonus again in 400 spins so far! Bigger bass on £5 took £7,000+ and did not bonus once!!! Gave up on it. Kraken 1 and 2 impossible to bonus over months, £5,000 in on £2 stake between them! Eye of Horus on £5 probably down £6,000 as it did bonus maybe 10 times till Xmas, but all were 15x or less!

VS is the main site, Pools is the other. Pools just rip £250 (site imposed limit) every month for 2 years without reply. Never a bonus or a line win above 10x. Don’t think I’ve had a line win above 20x on VS in 3 years!

I have cashed out decent wins 5 times between these sites in 2 years. Pools once!!

Surely I’m due a massive win soon???

I feel your pain.  Things do seem very different now post Covid in the online world.  Frequently, like yourself I get bonus round that pay maybe 50x if I’m lucky, like you I’ve had £0.00 in a bonus round as well, but they tend to come from Nolimit city games like Fire in The Hole or Deadwood RIP – personally I think a bonus round should have 100x minimum returns given how much you usually have to pay to get the fuckers in the first place, but the slot companies obviously disagree with me.  I’ve had some better returns on one or two Elk games such as Buffalo Toro and I still try Blueprint’s Return of Kong Megaways, but I gave up on Primal which used to be good, but now even after 30 spins from retriggers if you’re lucky enough to get a bonus round you usually just get the bonus guarantee – so yeah, seems if you want to play slots in the UK these days best get used to a non lubricated fist up your arse and in your wallet!

100% agree. I have been ripped 2+k a few times in a session which never used to happen. What I have noticed though is bonus buys from Relax and some hacksaw have increased. Like a what used to be $200 buy is now $206 or something. Might not seem much but how many people are paying that extra 3% or whatever for a bonus buy. All mounts up but I bet the RTP is the same as it used to be when it was $200 for a $200 buy. My last session lasted over 12hrs! this was trying to get my money back. It eventually happened but what a grind out. I need to take another break because as you say, everything is ripping, things are different.

[Re Retrolesa29 WANTED $1 Outlaw]

I think it’s all rigged like you say it’s all down to post covid how else are they going to get there money back by reducing the RTP. In other words the bonus means nothing to them or the players. Sugar rush for example and the alike £250 bonus buy and return £7.50 from the bonus is that a 96% – 98% RTP what a load of rubbish sorry chaps and chapesses it’s all there in front of you it’s bloody rigged. And the idea of going back to the last time you played certain games is totally wrong. Don’t get me started on the fees they charge MY GOD. Yer lets charge them fees as well as take all there money off them, watch out they might charge you a loosing fee too soon

Stop buying bonuses is my advice. Use the bonus buy cost as a marker for what the average bonus is going to pay less than. Spin them in at 25%-50% of the buy cost (raise the stakes if you have the funds to do so and havnt been spinning it for a long time) then you are more likely to make profit. If you cant spin it in, move on.

Works for me, in 2 years ive stayed in profit and just play with profits

Can’t remember the last time I had a winning session on the slots. Absolute shit show.

That’s just a really bad run of luck maybe? You need to vary the casino’s that you play at and also vary your games. I play across 6 casino’s, can be a sucker for going on the same games but I do try new stuff. I’ll usually have a cash out each month but there have been recent times of depositing and no bonuses happening. I might play the games I like at one casino and they are doing nothing, switch over to another and the same games are doing something. All hit and miss but you must have variety in your choice.

If a game isn’t bonusing, have the will to close it and move onto something else and take the loss. Go back to it you build your balance back up.

This is my first post. This is all really insightful. I think, as a man who supports others for a living – to make ‘better’ decisions, I’ve found myself often living a bit of hypocrisy. I started playing in 2020. Something really shit happened in my life, and I turned to escape on the slots. I won £17k in a few months. Since then, I have spent all of it – and much more. I haven’t seen a proper win for months. Trying to win it back is a pain in the arse. In the last 2 years, slots have completely gone dead on me.
