    Whats up everyone!

    I was just wondering what gambling related things really grind your gears the most?

    It can be anything gambling related except the obvious “losing my money” because we all hate that!

    Mine would have to be:

    1) A slot teasing on your last spin of your balance to tempt you to deposit more

    2) Live Dealers slow rolling cards (it’s so irritating)

    My real ocd is leaving a slot without a rounded balance, like I swear if I’m just about to leave DHV it will roll in a 9p win so I keep spinning until the balance evens out lol

    Other than that I hate a mega tease or even worse filling all the bars on garga only to get dicked the last second

    Hahaha I am similar actually. I like my balance to be on an even number and if its an odd number I convince myself it is a curse and I will not win anything until I even it out ?

    I don’t know why, but on Reactoonz when you have a losing spin, but it still takes the time out to change a 2×2 into a big x2 character. Drives me nuts this one!

    1) Certain bonuses where 4 scatters isn’t necessarily better than 3 scatters.  An example of this is Sphinx Wild.  3 scatters gave me the initial £3 trigger and the bonus went for over 500x.  A few months later, I had 4 scatters which gave me an initial £10 trigger but the bonus went for 0.

    2) Zero bonuses in general.  Any output of 0 from the RNG should always be displayed in the base game.  A bonus should hold some substance.

    3) Eye of Horus in general (bookies slot).  I’ve given this so many chances and I’m absolutely rubbish on it.  I’ve bonused it just once and it went for 10x.  Yet I’ve seen people sat on either side of me hitting the £500 jackpot on a number of occasions now.

    4) Watching people play Raging Rhino online.  I don’t think I’ve ever seen a big hit on that slot.

    In reference to this point, a zero bonus is a very good sign the bonus rounds in that game are separately random and not determined at the point you land the scatters, e.g. Bonanza and DHV.

    I never played Reactoonz, it looks complicated and like it requires some real concentration haha. I am glad escaped this peeve though!

    Exactly! Having multiple scatters for a hugely disappointing bonus is the worst. I got the rare 5 bonus symbols on Centurion on £2 yesterday. Managed to get the rare Wild Power Reels and it paid a measly £170. It’s supposed to be the best feature and I have had that pay £600+ before. At least it removed the other lower bonuses though.

    I had a DHV bonus last night, saved it and decided to do quickly do a few things and came back to it and it paid £28. Does this mean if I had chose another time to play the bonus I could have won more or less?

    Only BTG can definitively answer that question, but yes my understanding is that DHV and Bonanza bonus rounds, each spin is random. Not that this means anything; you’d have just as much a chance of winning less had you played it a different time as winning more, but it would mean your outcome would have been different in some way.

    1) I think the slots tease far to much especially the ones with character animation.

    2) The rounding off the balance thing I can relate to its a nightmare

    3) The ones that make a big fuss over a 15x win

    4) The jackpot games that will let you get two of each pot then your next picks are all the mini pot

    5) Slots that take far to long to bonus

    6) Bonuses that pay very little or zero what’s the point it just a long way of giving you a small win you could get with a 5 of a kind low symbols.

    Does anyone else look at the bonus and look at the amount spins it awards you and say well its gave me  £xxx of spins for free. Do the games count that or is it just based on your stake x whatever the systems decides your getting?

    My pet peves when I gambled… I’ve stopped since December 2018….

    1. Getting a decent bonus with a high multiply and winning nothing.. Like on the Casino Pharoes Fortune with like 18 spins and a x4/x5 paying like 20x.. Should be minimum 100x ?

    2. Staff in casinos who get you the coffee but hide a lot. ☕?

    3. Managers in general ??

    4. When lucky lady charm is not lucky…. Fucking Biatch… Opps sorry. Yeah I’m a charmer Not.

    5. I hate these new systems in the casino where you use your Points card for play instead of printing the tickets or cash. I feel like there following/Watching  your play ?

    6. 6am when they close ??

    I get kinda pissed off at ‘wins’ that are less than the stake. Or when you fill the screen of a symbol after missing reel 1 of course ?.
