Good little insight that mate thanks, all about that collector payer isn’t it!
It is right at the top now next to where it says Casino | Sports | Racing – it annoys me when they make tiny changes like that…. pointless imo!

Many thanks
My honest answer is i can’t actually remember what i had to send at the start, i’m pretty sure that the KYC stuff was discussed on the forum and there were certain countries you could set your vpn to to be able to select UK in the drop down menu, what have they asked you to send for your KYC and maybe just send it, see what is said. I would imagine they know we use a vpn.

Sometimes a post will go for manual approval, that then needs Dave to see it behind the scenes, read it and approve it so naturally, it takes a bit of time to do.
18th October 2023 at 12:21 pm in reply to: Review and opinions of the Crypto journey so far. #132538Enjoyed the content bandit and good to see you back. Few questions if I may!
Were the bonus buys encouraged by the contract? – I ask as it seemed odd there was next to no natural spinning, given fast/ ultra fast spinning was available but it was mainly super bonus buying low stakes
did you feel the contract made you record too much? – felt like by the end you were going through the motions and just buying to get the quickest video you could possible
the fees – could understandably tell you were reluctant to withdraw due to fees. it made the jeopardy feel less in my eyes. You knew going into a game there would be 3/4 buys, costing let’s say £200 each, with less ups/ downs then the “old school” content where anything could happen. I guess this helped keep a stable balance so I understand, but going weeks of content with no withdrawals or deposits felt odd sometimes
Thanks Bandit and enjoy the break.
Tbh the whole point of me going to a place like this was to be able to buy bonuses so that was always going to form a large part of what i was doing there, the “contract” as we are all now calling it, didn’t encourage anything, i do what i do when i want to do it and how i want to do it, aside from having to fulfill an amount of videos over a certain time period of course. There was no influence whatsoever as to what i played and when i played it as i simply wouldn’t sign up for that.
The speed of recording was great, i loved that part but actually, towards the end, i made them take longer didn’t i by mixing up whether i landed some natural bonuses or bought them so saying by the end to you it felt like that doesn’t really make much sense to me.
The withdrawal process and fees were a massive massive faff so unless i’d got to some silly amount, it just wasn’t worth going through it. For example, if i started a video with 4k, finished with £6k, there was zero point withdrawing it all and paying fees to do so, knowing full well that i would be depositing again the very next day to play again, i made a lot of withdrawals over my time there especially with the whole MT4 madness, that’s when it was definitely worth doing!
18th October 2023 at 12:13 pm in reply to: Review and opinions of the Crypto journey so far. #132537What i want to know steve, what did you earn in referals of people to the page? Ive been watching you since 2016 or something daft, so its a genuine question:) i heard u had a contract, i want to know more about that part, or do you have an NDA with the site? Hope u can clear that bit up for us, much love!! Looking forward to your next series of compilations <3
As discussed in previous videos, my deal was a flat fee payment for a number of videos over a certain time period, the first one was 20 videos over the space of a month and the second one was for 60 videos over the space of 3 months. Player numbers were irrelevant, the revenue figure paid to me was 0% and it didn’t matter whether i sent 1 player or 1000 players. Such is this industry that actually telling you the exact figure isn’t allowed, purely down to the fact that the company work with many influencers/content creators and i wouldn’t imagine a single one of those deals are the same.
18th October 2023 at 12:07 pm in reply to: Review and opinions of the Crypto journey so far. #132536I suppose except for the experts on the thread ( and no I mean experts, because it’s flying over my head all the processes you need… so genuinely anybody using crypto, you’re Hawkins level of intellect and I tip my hat to you, I’ve been struggling for a year easily )
but I suppose from a business point of view it works well for Steve, his business has over heads and the costs even the fees are part and parcel of play…some of the advice on here has been pretty solid and if he could use that then if he gets a “ second season “ with this casino or other he could cut quite a lot of his running costs.
for lower price players ( the £50 a week/ month slotters ) I don’t think crypto stands up as well….I don’t know , does any body play crypto and deposit less than a £100 ? Be interested to hear if you find it works for you….
I think the experiment has been really good, the last video which had old and new styles worked really, you’ll always have the “ uhhh look he warped time and space and broke unlimited laws to get that max win” but personally I enjoyed the run of videos…
For me, if you are depositing the odd £50 here and there, there is just no point in going through all the hassle involved with this sort of gambling, like even the cheapest bonus buys would mean your session could be over in literally seconds
18th October 2023 at 12:05 pm in reply to: Review and opinions of the Crypto journey so far. #132535I’ve just been hit with the additional info required when trying to send funds to a casino I play at. It asks what Wallet type!? And destination Country!? I’m guessing the Country is the one you use for the VPN but I send Litecoin to the casino but that isn’t a wallet type!?
Can anybody help me?
I just put a random country and a “non custodial” i don’t think it is something they can actually check? I would suggest testing it with a very small transaction first though just to make sure it goes through fine
1I can’t do the same as i once did on Reel King simply down to having a monthly deposit limit on my accounts now (that isn’t something i put in place but rather the UKGC made the casino do), when i could chase the top out and know i could keep depositing if i needed to or wanted to, it was a very different game as i knew pretty much that it would top at some point. These days, if i am chasing out a top and i hit the monthly limit and have to stop, its almost like an enforced loss if you get me?
Cheers bandit. Love the vids. My favourites are obviously when you win but when it matters. Odd times recently the money is just a number in your account.
It’s like betting with cash always seems more intense.
Quite often it felt to me like it was just numbers on a screen too, i think that came from the fact i didn’t really want to go through the bloody mission of sending it completely back to my bank each time and then of course you lose a bit of what that figure actually means, it became so so easy to sit at the bar and lose a few thousand pounds and just think, oh well, whereas if i’d have actually been sending each deposit every time i played i believe it would have felt a lot worse.
Just wondering if you know the daily wheelspin is now a level up spin and any locked bcd will be wiped soon so,the majority of the bcd bonus you have been getting wont happen as there will be no rakeback( bcd deposit bonuses were scrapped weeks ago, dont bother me at all but might be worth mentioning, Have a great time in Vegas
Ah well that is good news as being a gambler that wagers a shit ton, it was forever accumulating some sort of bonus build up.
Sorry Steve one last thing.
If you do play on Mr Vegas or video slots again take the usual bonus and play the Dream jackpot games from Relax gaming.
The jackpot feature drops a lot especially on higher bets $3-$6.
target games that are only available in dream jackpot such as Templar tumble 2 and Cluster tumble 2. These games especially cluster tumble bonus often. just a thought mate
Yeah i did a dream drop focused video one time and noticed that they drop fairly often, i will have a go of a few next time i play.
I enjoyed every vid you uploaded Steve. Was always a good watch no matter what format you played.
I’m glad you have stopped playing there I think it’s going to come crashing down soon and will be a headache you could do without.
My question is how is your young fella? You likely don’t want to discuss family but I’m just curious. I remember all the old times when you would brag about his accomplishments and milestones was Awsome.
Any way mate if you ever feel you need to get away come see us in Newzealand we would be happy to have you.
Cheers Steve appreciate it mate!!!
Talking about my family became impossible in these circles after i split up with my wife, people knew best and i’d “gambled everything away and lost everything” according to them which is a load of rubbish, we were two people who didn’t feel the same about each other anymore so finally got round to moving on, even now my ex wife would tell you that gambling was and still is a huge plus in my life and probably still hers starting back in 2010 when i began making a very good living from playing pub fruit machines and she could be a stay at home mum for our two sons, who are both fine thanks. People think they know, they have no idea.
Think Steve is doing exactly the right thing not mentioning where he is playing but stating that the info is available if you look for it.No way can he be obliged or expected to help if players hit problems,the world of crypto casinos is a whole new ball game,providing no protection or garrantees,we are all taking big risks playing at them including Steve,If you want protection, the UKGC will give you plenty of that in the UK
I don’t know the ins and outs of the deal he has had but I’d be amazed if any casino would negotiate a deal with any streamer where they would expressly not mention the site they are playing on, Just because the name isn’t directly mentioned on the video means nothing, telling people where they can find the info and even showing the tab on his website is the same thing and if you think it isn’t then you are incredibly naive.
I just feel that if a streamer is directing, sorry ‘not directing’ (nudge nudge wink wink), players to a casino then they have some duty of care to their followers. Even if they are not able to help directly then at least mention that problems are being had by some players at the casino, remove them from the casino tab and stop directing people to where they can find the casino. I don’t know, maybe it’s me being naive thinking that, just because it’s something I’d do maybe I shouldn’t expect others to do the same.
You would be surprised about the negotiations of the deal. At the very beginning they wanted banners scrolling across my videos, they wanted their name used as much as possible, they would have liked a pinned comment per video, they got none of this because i was not willing to put it all in anyones face. I gave you the extra steps to find out where i was playing if you wished to do so, i’m not sure why anyone would take those extra steps if they didn’t want to know.
