this is a great post, it highlights so much of what can go wrong, and something we dont often talk about, how the win “definition” cna change your view on your work and/or future wins.
My advice, and i work for a group of casinos so please at least read some of this, i might ramble a bit too much though – I see this a lot. Ive done it myself. My first hit, like yours, was first place for $6k on Pokerstars in 2008. I then played poker for a job, and won $65.7k in 2009, and another $10k hit in the same month. You get the feeling of indestructibility. You see 65.7k on a screen and think – well i can cashout 60k and have fun with 5.7k. Problem is that is FIVE thousands euros. Thats half a years wages for your average 21 year old.
So things go south and you are always chasing the next hit. The stakes rise. The deposit size rises. The deposit frequency rises. Its a vicious circle. Five years ago casinos preyed on this, these players, no matter the level of responsible gaming a casino has, make up a majority of the player database. I look through the back offices of casinos we manage and I see people depositing 25, then 50, then 150, then 325, then locking their account for a bit. But they come back. Dont get me wrong, the main income for a casino is VIP players, thats why they look after them so well, but the main issue in gambling is those with no control, or those with no sense of “stopping”.
What im trying to say, in a weird way, is you can only do what you want to do. If you earn 1k a month, you need to start afresh from right now. You have 1k a month. Forget what you had, or could have had, and think of your life. Think of your wife, and what it would be like if she hated you. There arent that many lovely women in the world who would have sex with you and marry you i assume. Unless you look like Ryan Reynolds in which fuck your way to the top it seems easier 🙂 As for you being lucky, thats not something anyone can prove, and luck runs out. Noone is lucky forever.
You need to assign some context to your decisions. Losing from 12k to 2k happens. More than you know. Yesterday I saw someone request 65k in cashouts. Today i checked and they have reversed 35k of it. Its greed and addiction. And it sucks. It pains me to see it. Dont be a figure on a screen, as even if you win 50k tomorrow from 5 euros deposit, you will lose it back in the end. Invest in something that causes you joy, that will make you not hate life if you cant gamble. Find something better to define who you are.
21How about we keep this open and every day call him a twat so he never comes back as he will hate us all. That would stop me coming here and being tempted.
Right then ….. new award for the laziest game developer and game ever ever ever
legacy of dead … ………. I mean … it’s book of dead ………. they didn’t even change the tiles ……. except explorers gone for another mummy style character  which I’m sure I’ve seen in another game ….
( the bonus might be different, I wouldn’t know because I span 10 times then fucked right off, but I bet  it’s the same as book of dead )
What’s your lazy contender ?
Is weird that they get away with cloned games. Do they bring these idea to a board room saying look at these great new games we have made. Not 1 guy pipes up saying hold on a sec i think i’ve seen this 1 haha
Nope. As they prefer this. Look at “wings of fortune” from NetEnt. Its a clone of a 6 year old game that noone remembers. The maths is done. The RTP checks are done. The approval from GLI is done. Its just a redesign and away you go. 4 weeks work in 2 days. Saves them a fortune and adds to their game portfolio.
IMO its lazy and only BTG really makes innovative content now. Yggdrasil do some decent work. Playngo tries but mixes in some questionable ones. Everyone clones. Its just part of the market as people do miss new games.
I have no one to play that with ? my other half is a boring sod and my family arent really gamblers apart from bingo ?
We can play WB! Not sure how but we can make it work. carrier pigeon bonus rounds or something
Shit i once lost 1.6k trying to get my balance from £1,598.40 to £1,600. Been there.
“looking at” and “doing” are wide apart here. They cant cap high roller deposits. Source of wealth covers this in a major way. I think if people want to gamble letting htem under a regulated body makes more sense. All this would allow is moves to offshore sites under a curacao licence (some good some bad) or no licence (all bad) which makes it far more risky.
Working here the problem isnt regulation though. Its payment providers. When VISA or MC pulls out of a market it gets hard to deposit real fast. Skrill makes you select what the money is for, and if you want to go to Co-op and ask for 950 £100 paysafe cards or Ukash vouchers be my guest.
Oh all of you can get to fuck. Ill go break in to Casumo and delete your accounts.
11I feel bad for you, however i will say – that game sucks balls even if its paying out.
1Im just going to miss theguy. If he is a fullstack Django Dev i can offer him a job 😀
wtf. Mine and Bio’s hearts look like fucking up ice creams, and WB’s come out all green and fun. ?!?!
21Re-reading this as someone asked me about Rosh in real life a few mins ago. Not sure why he is still so popular. But the guy and this practice he creates defies common logic and responsible gaming. Just wanted to post here and annoy seedy mainly
Can you get me a screen grab or something of him showing it? I want to see what he showed plz. Or a link to any video.
Its Rise of Merlin, but with book of dead symbols. Its not the same. Well it is, but as Rise of merlin. To be fair to Playngo their recent games are deent (ankh, frames, honey rush) Would love to see Bandit smash a big honey rush bonus
Surely there is an old woman playing OXO games you can hug if you get bored?
A few years ago I cashed out to a revolut card over Christmas and it took about 10 days so I wouldn’t be too concerned yet ?
Revolut is the tits.
