Definitely less crowded on those days, and I heard there's no rooms with those numbers in some hotels in Las Vegas either.

Yeah, indeed there are some apartment buildings that don't have the 13 or the 4th floor.

Nokia also skipped their 4th edition phones and went straight to 5th edition from the third one.

Yesterday I won with a good multiplier on Tombstone RIP but, unfortunately, it looks like NoLimit City doesn't have the replay option.

I can show you how it happened with screenshots though.




217x of my bet. I love this slot. Its animation is amazing, don't, you guys, think? And sounds too. Sometimes I play slots just because of those things.

Hi guys, do you feel like pragmatics is really bad lately? I played several games from pragmatic play last week from all freespin purchases the results were very bad and it was very difficult to get bigwin. Then for 2 days I tried playing demo mode from pragmatic and the results were the same, very bad. Do you think using a VPN has an effect on spins?

No,it is Pragmatic who is real bad for real recently,after getting my near max win of x9833 some months ago since then everything has went dark with this provider especially.The only good slot that I saw at least in demo is paying is this newest Sugar Supreme Power Nudge which when it pays it pays good although it has high volatility.

Using a VPN has no effect on spins as I have tried with RiseUP VPN from quite some European locations from Western Europe and the results were absolutely the same.

I thought I was the only one who felt this way. It is very difficult to get good results in pragmatic slots. Purchase bonuses almost never return the purchase capital, at most only getting half of the purchase price. Is it because there are so many slot machines that the old slots have very bad results? for newly released slots, the results are usually not too bad. I started to dislike playing slots from pragmatics

So you think it's okay to use a VPN? I remember someone once said that if play pragmatics, don't use a VPN, but I forgot where the comment was. So I thought because I used VPN the results were bad

The gambling results should be the same with or without a VPN.

The problem appears when you want to withdraw your money.

If they don't allow VPNs and you used one, they can probably legally not allow you to withdraw your money, because it was part of their terms and conditions.

This is because some countries are banned to use these services, so they can't make those checks with a VPN.

It differs based on luck, for me, I've got good results (but no max-win) with PP, especially with old games like Sweet Bonanza, Fruit Party, and such. The newer games are more volatile and have lower RTP so it's more like Sensational or bust. The enhanced RTP one is also more friendly...

Changing IP or casino or playing time will have a different hash, but the result is still random. It's like you change your hash on provably fair games, "sometimes may be good, sometimes may be shit."

VPN has nothing to do with your bad result, when you are out of luck, the result will be the same regardless you are using VPN or not. This is basically similar case to those who think that playing with new account, playing with different currency, or playing in other casino, etc  give more chance of winning. Pragmatic, however, it can be a very friendly provider but it can be your worst enemy at the other time. Here is my latest result (yesterday) in Jewel Bonanza, not a huge win in the value since the base bet is only IDR 800  but it is 1114x result.

Sounds like a good win if you can get 1100x the bet. I would like to play your replay but my wifi network is bad so the game takes a very long time to load. I'll look at it next time when the network is better.

Yes actually I also thought whether using a VPN or not would have the same results, just because last week was too bad so I was wondering if VPN really had an effect, but apparently not. Maybe my account is bad and I'm having bad luck with the casino. Do you have any special tricks if you feel like your account is really bad or unlucky?

It is a good win not just it sounds like,  a thousand times wins is very rare to happen. I have been gambling for years now and I can easily count how many times I hit 1000x+ in those years of betting because it only happen once in a while.

Using VPN may have something to with bad result because as far as I remember, using VPN can access different seeds than the usual, and some streamer often experience different result when they move from place to place accessing the site with different IP.   I don't know if it is only a coincident but this streamer often gets a better result when he is accessing the game on the place where he get a better result and had a bad game result when he is streaming at the place he usually get a bad gambling session.

I believe gambling result is random but I also believe that the result of our session is dependent on what game seed a player got during his gameplay.

Long time without hitting few thousands X multiplier in slot game, but this new game by pragmatic namely Viking Forge gave me 4341x some time ago.
I thought it is a game similar to the other older pragmatic games, but it is a bit different as it works like collecting multiplier in each spin.
The multplier is available in the low paying symbols only such as 10, J, Q, K and A
Starting from 0.1x up to 20x but there are also multipliers that will multiply what is collected up to 10x
The max multiplier is 10,000x, while the RTP is low compared to other pragmatic games = 96.05%
No replay = hoax? LOL here is the replay if someone want to watch https://replay.pragmaticplay.net/5BtSWWODrQ

[Betwrong]

Yes, I got it! Thank you very much, @mu_enrico!

Now I can I see my Top Wins and all the links to them!



Wow. Didn't know it was possible.

What's funny is that after seeing your post I just went to play Tombstone R.I.P to find out where those likns were, and I decided to play a bit along the way and look what happened:

VPN only aims to change the IP on the cellphone or PC that we use so that we can access gambling sites if the country where we live does not allow free access to the site.
If it is said that using VPN can affect the results for the worse then that is wrong, this kind of narrative is very ridiculous because I once also accessed a site that I could not access freely and in the end contacted the support team to ask for permission to use VPN and it was allowed.
I tried the site with several slot games and the pragmatic provider can also produce wins and the RTP is also quite high so I sure the VPN won't affect anything.

By the way it is win with pretty good multiplier, it is very rare to come across multiplier like this, congratulations on the win.

There is also encryption at the client side when using a VPN, but that should not matter for the casino.

Basically the casino only sees a connection from an IP that is not your computer directly. That's basically it.

It should not affect the performance.

Having said that, there are some known lists of VPN IPs so there is the possibility that they do something differently, but I guess they need to be certified and ensure they treat every connection as equal.

Agree with that, but actually casinos prohibit the use of VPNs because of jurisdictional restrictions and every casino doesn't want to violate this if it could cause problems in the future.
Some give VPN permits because in their customers countries licenses they don't actually fall into the jurisdictional prohibition category and site blocking is only carried out by the state government, that why VPN permits in some casinos are given specifically.
And also casinos do not want gamblers who have multiple accounts in their casinos for the purpose of exploiting bonuses or cheating because it is clear that things like this are prohibited.

And the fact that using VPN can influence the results in game is truly unbelievable, in fact I think discourse like this is just nonsense.
In fact, VPN is only used to change the IP address or divert the IP address for a specific purpose.

That's right, VPN only directs the original IP to the Virtual IP, that's its only function. Not to help slots players to win the jackpot. However, the myth that exists here, to increase the potential jackpot apart from using a VPN, is the assumption that the server, device, account ID, playing time, room (the initial symbol that appears when opening a game) is become a way to make it easier for someone to win the jackpot. Even though all of that has nothing to do with it at all. systems and programs have been created in such a way as to ensure symbols appear randomly. The results for the user are in accordance with the user's own luck.

I want to show you yet another remarkable win of mine. It happened couple of days ago when I was playing Ragna's Rock by GameArt:




My base bet was $0.25, so I won 305x of my bet:



Again, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid there's no REPLAY option for GameArt slots.

[Bitinity]

Again, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid there's no REPLAY option for GameArt slots.

Dont force yourself to provide replay of the nice win you get . As long as I know they (GameArt) have their own bet history but I'm not sure if they have replay feature (I think they dont have it) since I have never seen someone share a replay from GameArt. You seems to be actively participating in stake forum slot challenge every single week, I believe you play this game because of the challenge. What you have won from the game itself is obviously tens time better than what you may get from the reward of the challenge.

Hahaha this provider is not one of my favorite providers so I never play games from this provider unless participating in a challenge, I'm not saying this provider is bad just that I'm not familiar with it, even when some people share some of their winnings it hasn't caught my attention yet I prefer hunting in Pragmatic and Nolimit City, especially in newly released games. Last month I managed to get Maxwin at Gates of Olympus, here if you want to watch  unfortunately I can't cash it out you definitely know the reason, I was too ambitious and kept hunting for other games until I finally rungkad 

So far I haven't had any big wins even new games seem to ignore me one of which is Sugar Supreme Powernudge, I made 30 buy spins only got one win/ROI around x200 of the base bet and after that this game continues to suck up the balance  This is the first time I've seen a game from Pragmatic suck faster even though the maxwin is only x5000 I would understand if the maxwin was x10000 because the difficulty level is 2x higher.
