Should I just quit or is this normal?

Hey guys...I finally got my taxes back! Don't get me wrong because I think their service is great and all, but is this normal?? I went ahead and made a $125 deposit at lock casino and claimed the 400% bonus...$$625.00 staring and with $2.50-$5.00 bets...gone in under 10 mins.....get a freebie...play, play, play then right before reqering requierments...gone. Make another deposit $60.00 get 400% bonus start with $300.00 same bets and gone in under 10 mins.....get another free chip and play,play,play until wagering is ALMOST met...then lose.....Ok make ANOTHER deposit...repeat repeat repeat.........I'm about done, but decide to make 1 final deposit, I AM FINALLY AHEAD...check wagering requierments...not even close...play, check, play, check...uh oh...I finally met playthrough with $580.00...went to support and was told only $20.00 was withdrawable....omg, min. withdraw is $50.00....go back and play....no pys bigger than my bet and no bonus games until there is nothing left...Anyone else have runs like this or do I need to find another place to play??


oh and one more thing...in an effort to make themselves look better I was told that at one point I was able to cashout $1800.00, but yet when my balance was that high I saw in the cashier that I still had over $2000.00 playthrough left....was it a lie or do they delay playthrough requierments to keep us playing???

Ive only had luck once and was able to withdraw 80$ else its been a huge loosing stream for the past 1month+ cant hit anything anywhere, but im trying new place loosing in few mins on same casino 3-4times in a row it just looks like its too tight play, like yday on alladins casino deposit with 200% bonus got none free spins/bonus rounds and i was playing like a hour that pretty bad, went with small bets to make them last else i would have been broken in 5min tops also.

But gotta admit uselly i have better/longer playtime with bonus normally "easier" get the free spin/bonus rounds, and been close a few times on playthroughs but always goes dead on everything like you say.

Yes SM- I would say thats pretty normal. Sounds like alot of my deposits at Lock. I never bet over $2.00 per spin at any RTGs anymore because their slots could spin forever without any good hits.

Some guy hit the jackpot on Year of Fortune today at Lock for over 9K- maybe that has something to do with your bad luck???? Who really knows?

I still think Lock is one of the better RTGs out there and will continue to play there, allthough, I'll be making smaller deposits and making smaller bets.

Good Luck

I think it has to do with your betting style and you are not patient.  For me, it doesnt matter what good bonus I can get, I just keep spinning with $1-$1.25 per spin, I wont increase my bet even if I am ahead.  If I was you, when I was up $1800, I would have set it back to $1 per spin.  I noticed that bonus rounds come out more often with small bet, not only with RTG casinos, but with all casinos I played.

Lock ALWAYS starts out hitting bonus rounds and looking like it is gonna be good and then the switch goes to OFF and you lose it all...PERIOD! That is my experience with them anyway and I bet like TaaDaa!

I can only agree with Taadaa here, playing at such high stakes is asking for trouble. Ofcourse you can get lucky, but RTG slots are known for their insane long dry spells, and I mean really INSANE long dry spells.

I only play RTG with huge bonuses and consider the money lost as soon as it leaves my Neteller, I find the slots fun, but winning on them is hard as nails.
I haven't hit anything over 250x my betsize in the past 6-7 months.

Here's what I do..... if I'm playing a game & don't hit a bonus round after so many bets, I bump my bet up a notch.  More times than not I hit a bonus round very soon afterwards.  If I don't within, say, 10 spins, I move on 2 another game.
I also find that for some reason most on-line casinos play REAL well for me later @ nite, typically on weekends.
Finally, I also find I hit more bonuses & end up cashing out when I don't take any deposit match bonuses.
Hope this helps.....

I have to say that from what I read your sessions were unbelievably bad, holy moses!
$130 on 0.25 spins and not a single bonusround?
$600 on 2,50 spins in 10 minutes?

I've played many crapsessions lately, but even my session at NoWinpalace wasn't THAT bad..
Usually I get at least some playtime for my money, maybe a few 100-200x bet wins if I'm lucky, but playing such deposits back with no hits at all is very rare.

Sometimes I have this feeling that it has something to do with the time of the day, I know it sounds like total BS, but when I''m in such a losing streak, or playing back a huge win, its best to leave the casino and come back a few hours later.

My last deposit at Lock was 30 bucks with a 100% match, got that up to $275, then the switch went on LOSE with 650 or so playthrough left to go.
Played it back to $50 with still $150 WR left.
Was really sick of that.
Switched off my PC, as it was really going nowhere.
Came back later, and could hit a few bonusrounds again.
Cleared the wr and cashed out a measily 90 bucks, just didn't want to lose it all..
But I'm sure that if I had continued to play the first time I would have busted.

lol, I got several big hits playing very late at nite to early in the morning.

there are many RTG casinos around, so I normally dont deposit multiple times with one casino.  If I couldnt win for example at Lock, I tell myself that I do not have luck with Lock today and move on to Cherry Red.  :o

Actually, I just busted out at cherry red, lol.  Now, I'm making a deposit with lucky18 on 300% bonus, code VIPBONUS23, if you r interested.

Satan...I keep saying, STAY AWAY FROM BONUSES!  Yeah, there are some folks on here who will tell you they made a zillion dollars playing off a bonus.  But, WHY do you think online casinos give bonuses????  Think about it.  You are virtually 99.99% certain to loose what you deposit. 

Gambling is also about math.  The longer you gamble, the more certain you are you will loose.  Hence, why the give bonuses.  The provide the casion no one will win by cash and dash.

I play at about 10 different online casinos...all NO bonus.  I get calls, emails, etc...all the time trying to get me to take bonuses.  I tell them NO.  Of the ten casinos I play, I have a profit in about 6 - 7 of them.  That would not be true had I been a bonus player.

I'm sick and it's not the bonuses fault, I need to stay away from me. I played on the $50 free chip at Thebes, did excellent. Made playthrough 50% and the cashout is 2500 a week. I had $700 at one time, hammered for hours $3.75 a spin. What more could one ask for? When checking with Nicki in supportif I was done, I was and the $50 was mine too. Should have cashed out $600 $500    Went down to $20 still betting same  hit one hundred something  got back to about $300, now it's gone. I would have been caught up and could have told husband his card came from bank and what I did already. I have a sore throat again, it feels like someone has been pulling on my tongue, it sure hurts, among other places.

Squeaky wheel gets the grease.
Good for you for pursuing your bonus and staying on top of their error!
Beuna suerte!
