Brutal. A shit show

[sporkz]

The past few days has been terrible. Either my rtp was turned off because of my withdrawal last week or something is off. I know it’s luck based but come on. For 3 days straight? all losses? 

I’ve deposited over thousands of dollars past few days. Keep in mind, I only do $20-$40 bonus buys. The highest profit I had was $170 off a $20 bonus buy. the rest were either barely money back or a loss. 

I tried multiple games too. Same script  I upped my bonus buy to sweet bonanza to $40 and my win was $1.20. That’s the amount you get when you get into the bonus  It was ALL dead spins.

This site does a horrible job giving cashback on losses too. Other sites give me a minimum of 15% 

It’s also discouraging and frustrating seeing them tweet max wins from streamers. It’s like, I need to bonus buy 20-50k or have millions to have a chance for a max win. Makes sense right? Great affiliate marketing tactic. I’ve had over thousands of bonus buys and hundred thousands of spins, not 1 max win.  On any game.

Well, anyways. It hasn’t been this bad before and no point in chasing my losses anymore. Taking a long good break. Enjoy and take care of yourself everyone.

Hey there @sporkz,

sad to hear that you've had an unlucky streak on your slot bonusbuys.

I've been doing a lot of bonusfeature buys on all kinds of different slots aswell, obviously can't expect them to hit a maxwin very often. It took me a few weeks to months to hit my first maxwin on here. It's not too bad as long as the buys at least return either half the coins or best case even double or tripple the amount spent meanwhile, which they did.

Also, it really does depend on the slot providers you choose, a lot more than it actually depends on Stake as a Casino-Platform which is literally just hosting these slots the same way others are. Some slots are way more volatile than others

Player Bonuses on here are pretty fair compared to other casinos around, but you won't really get a taste of it until you quit doing bonus feature buys only and actually start spinning the slots to generate some wager, which in return increases your Bonuses.

By the way, with a playstyle like that one also misses out on the chance to hit a maxwin just in plain basegame, which i personally think is more likely to happen if you spin consistently rather than buy features only, which also gets expensive real quick aswell.

Anyway, taking a break to recover from a loss-streak is probably the smartest thing to do here mate
Take care aswell, enjoy your break and good luck on hitting the max asap!

Cheers!

Hi. In the past 3 days I spun into I think 5 bonuses at $.60. Guess what? Not one paid over $60. Very discouraging to waste several spins to get $20 back from .60 spins. Like I said, it’s been brutal.

@sporkzHi. I'm in the same position like you, but can you try couple of buyins with IDR currency? Sometimes is working well. Good luck

Been there, way too many times, I know how you feel. They keep saying it’s a slot “cycle” and all depends on the moment you get in there and how many people are playing it for your chances to be higher than usual. But all I see (specially with pragmatic slots) is that this “cycle” doesn’t have a “logic”.

you could make 30 spins on 50$ and get 2/3 times the bonus round all of them paying 300/600x. Or, as happened to me countless times, you could spin .2/.6/1$ for over 5000 spins and not getting a bonus at all, most of the spins would be a 0x and once you get a bonus don’t expect more than a 2/3x… 

 

I can just confirm that right now pragmatic is in the take & piss “cycle” which means countless spins where you get 3 scatters and dies, or even worse, it tumbles 7/10 times with 2 scatter and you get just the 3rd one then dies (if talking about gates you’ll never see even a shitty 2x zap) 

in January been lucky enough to hit a 27k on born Wild, and then been stupid enough to try my luck on gates, result was 200s 50$ bonus buys and none of them paid more than 20/40x…

 

so yeah, that said I’ve been taking over a month break as of now, can’t afford to lose over 1k a week without even wagering 5k.

damn man, i totally understand your frustration as i have experienced similar situations for myself as well, maybe with a slightly higher average bet size and maybe even over longer periods of time (weeks and sometimes even moths) spinning and buying the same slots without getting any satisfying hit out of it.

Yet, you can't really tell how many bonuses you would have spun into if you consistently kept spinning the slots only in those 3 days rather than buying the feature's straight ahead in between because of (presumable) impatience. You can't really take measures here based on just 5 bonuses. In theory you could even spin into way more bonuses than 5 without getting any satisfying hit out of it until it suddenly pays you a max win.

From my very own experience of playing on the casino here for about 2 years now and unfortunately losing more than  winning lately as well, i can assure you, spinning the slots and bringing some patience is key to success and will get you the most out of it in the long run.

The most important thing to keep in mind is not to try and chase your losses and not to see gambling as a way to make money man, that'll financially destroy you real quick. I don't ever expect to get my money back when i throw something into a casino and try to deposit accordingly, so i can't get disappointed much if i am unlucky here and there and on the other hand - still got enough for rent and food in my half-broken fridge.

Anyway, it's wise to take a break before things get out of hand. Perhaps even request a Self-Exclusion if needed.Stake has always been supportive in those regards. You can always message them, asking for a self-exclusion and they'll instantly go ahead and help you out. They even restricted just the casino for me when i specifically asked for it back in the day, leaving the account intact so i could still claim all of my bonuses and do some sports betting for a change with them

If you're interested about the conditions & process, you can read more about it here: Self Exclusion
and always feel free to ask the 24/7 live support for help.

Hope you'll make the best out of it man, wishing you loads of luck for the future and keep ya' head up, cheers!
