Over 4k in fobt

[Ian Hislop]

The lad started on what he said was his last 1k totaling 5. I admit I didn't see all of it but I did witness one of the two fobt saying he was almost 3k in.

It was paying too, every so often he would hit a 2-300£ win but then eat more than that before something else happened.

I couldn't watch anymore and went home. Fobt are doing this so we don't stand a chance. 

[BlindHaze]

Jeez, that’s terrible. I’m not sure I could watch either, I can’t imagine how it must feel to be that much in.

I still play the FOBTs once a month or so, but I’m really not a fan anymore. Some of my go to games such as El Torero have been reduced from 90% to 86% on 20p. I know I’m on a loser whatever the percentage is, but it seems to have turned  into a completely dead game.

FOBT's are completely unplayable now, they just don't offer any wins at all that would make you think "yeah, I've made enough cash now, I'll call it a day". They barely pay anything, and by the time they do, you're already so far into them that it makes no difference and you have to carry on.

Can't help but think that the government didn't help by removing the £50 megaspins - at least you had a chance of winning with those. Premium play are utter crap and you might not even get a game.

If they are not worth playing then removing 50 quid Spins was definitely the right thing to do

[Stormy]

I watched a punter win two £500 slot jackpots in quick succession and then playing roulette got his balance to over £1400. This was a few years and I asked him what balance would be enough for him to cash out and he just shrugged his shoulders. Sadly I watched his balance gradually decreasing and left when it was at about £700 because it was doing my head in. Don't know what he started with but he got some incredible luck and still didn't cash out.

The current situation with fobt's RTP is dreadful, anybody playing them is either very foolish or an addict who can't help themselves. I'm gradually weaning myself off them as I feel such a cnut when I lose more than £100 in a session. No fun nowadays, just endless teasing and decent payouts are as rare as a blue moon.

Fobt's are a complete rip off, even more so than in the past.

They were still worth playing at the point that Megaspins were removed.

when I play rainbow riches on premium play takes loads before it gives me a win over £5

when you get hammered repeatedly, you realise sitting watching paint dry is a more positive experience. 

Pardon my french but ::
Fuck Ladbrokes, Betfred and all the other bookies
Fuck Shitleys, Admiral, Merkur and all the other arcades
Fuck every casino
And fuck the gambling commissions, around the entire planet. 

Nooo. not finished :

Fuck the fake ass streamers who dont give a damn about the damage they do. cnuts. All of them. 

Sorry Darren. But this is how I feel and have felt for a long time.

FOBTS are absolutely MERCILESS now at £2, in my opinion and experience since the change of stake, even more so than at £100 ! simply because, they play much faster now, delivering you a blast of dopamine every 2 seconds, and they go through money like a hot knife through butter, they absolutely MASSACRE the punter, and i DO mean massacre ! I lost myself on them yesterday, i am going to give them up now and just admit to myself that they literally are like setting fire to my money ! I want revenge for my losses over the years, more so the last 4 (since the legislation to change stake to £2), but i can tell anybody reading this from £500/600/700 losses over the last 4 years since the change of stake, they are literally a con and completely fraudulent, it's just a damn shame i am addicted to the adrenaline and dopamine release it now offers you in rapid succession!! I won't quit on quitting though, tomorrow is a new day ! But to anyone struggling, take my word here, there's literally NO money to be made on these anymore! Love to everyone who is addicted n struggling like me, hang in there, n keep battling ✊🙏🫶

Mate them online Casino streamers are absolutely FULL OF SHITE ! It's absolutely terrifying that people actually believe that seeing these twats win 5/10/50/100k jackpots online is even remotely achievable lol Who the f**k would work if it was that easy to just jump online n win a year or say 10/15 years salary FFS c'mon man 😂😂 Them guys work for the site, plain n simple, they just wanna entice mugs on their to empty their bank accounts to they to try n replicate what they are doing, but guaranteed 1 million percent you will only get your finances slaughtered! Them people are affiliated with the online Casino, they work for them, it's PLAINLY obvious, and the one thing that really jumps out at anyone in the know, is that a Casino couldn't afford to have a punter spanking them for RIDICULOUS amounts like that, they'd ban you or find a reason to f**k you off, much like betting apps do if they think your a courtsider at the tennis or something and they'd restrict your account n limit your bets, it's just common knowledge in the gambling game ! 🙏

Back then they were worth playing and 20p roullett too.

Most streamers ban you for slightest and been banned by one recently. Un subbed and reported them on youtube. Dont no if that will make a difference.

[Stormy]

Agree with tazzftw13, £2 spins absolute balance rinser nowadays. The bonus wins don't scale up compared to £1 or even 50p stakes. Coral which I still think has the best slots in the shops... nearly all the new slots, the bonuses pay in the order of 25x-50x which makes very difficult to turn a decent profit.

Its been so long long time since I've had a jackpot and on average last year I lost about £500 a month. Ii was so disappointing I've almost given up this year. Even the dumbest punter like me can only take so many slaps in the face before reacting accordingly. Thankfully the horse racing is much more successful and actually far more fun taking on the silly priced short priced favourites.

I seen a Chinese bloke put £9,000 in FOBT on roulette in William hill , when it was £100 a spin , a few years back,

l looked at him , he didn’t that seem that bothered, 

l was shocked by the fact he didn’t even care.
