A game pays out less than I think it should

Problem: I have been playing a Spinomenal slot for half an hour. I’ve already spent $100, but my bet winning is only $20. Is there anything wrong with the game or the online casino?

Answer: Let’s review the problem from two angles, starting with the slot.

Version 1: The slot is cold

So, you make 500 spins, lose $100 and win $20. Is this okay? Yes, it’s okay. Many games have so-called ‘losing streaks’ during which they accumulate the money that players inject into them, and then suddenly they pay out hundreds or thousands of dollars to you or someone else. Look at my losing experience with this and that slot – it was an epic fail for me, but I do understand that I just caught the slots when they were cold.

Version 2: Low RTP

Read my guide to Spinomenal’s RTP. In layman’s terms, online casinos are eligible to publish the majority of Spinomenal slots at one of the RTP levels offered by the provider. For example, Easter Spin comes with four RTPs: 88.18%, 92.04%, 93.97% and 96.17% (see the provider’s webpage for this video slot). However, version 2 cannot explain the situation where you lose $100 and win $20.

Many Spinomenal online casinos prefer installing slots with lower RTPs to pay less to players – it’s just business. Unfortunately, casinos do not publish RTPs inside Spinomenal games, so you will never know which of the four RTP levels a specific game has. Note that these manipulations are legitimate; casinos do not breach any laws in this respect.

Version 3: Rogue casino

This is the least probable version, because casinos cannot physically intrude on a game’s code and tweak its RTP in the casino’s favour. However, players tend to blame the casinos for their losses. Well, I can admit some genius hackers crack Spinomenal slots on behalf of some malicious casinos, but the probability is minimal. Let’s use Occam’s razor.

Conclusion

I believe that versions 1 and 2 give the most realistic answers to your question. Just spin a bit more until the video slot becomes hot and you ride the winning streak. As an option, try another Spinomenal video slot.
