After spending a little time on the forum, I realized that 3 questions are most often disturbing.

As a curious user, I decided to sort it out myself and share it with you!

Myth #1: Online casino games are rigged

This is one of the most popular online casino complaints. Players do not sit in front of the dealer or at the slot machine, which is why many believe that the games are rigged in favor of the casino. This is far from the truth. Casino players are aware of all the nuances. The online casino also provides game history where the player can view the game algorithms and odds. In this way, he compares and checks the results of his game. It is not profitable for the casino to adjust the games in their favor. These days, information is spreading virally: negative publicity can destroy a business in a highly competitive environment. As a result, sites use all methods to make players feel safe. Casino software providers spend thousands of dollars testing their games for accuracy and reliability. At the same time, passing grades are often marked publicly so that everyone can see the results of the audit itself.

Myth #2: I won't get paid if I win.

People are distrustful of the news that someone they know has won at an online casino. This does not mean that there are no unscrupulous operators and any casino can be trusted. However, hundreds of thousands of players play online casinos all over the world. Therefore, the percentage of fraud is minimal. The casino will do everything possible to keep your money in the account. It can be long waiting periods, documents for verification and much more. But if you want your money, you will get it.

Important to remember!

To distinguish a good casino from a scam, you should read the reviews on our favorite Guru forum and check for a license.

Myth #3: Online gambling is more addictive than live gambling.

Online casinos have become popular due to their accessibility - a player can enter an online casino from a mobile device without any effort. But online casinos are not more addictive than a live casino. On the contrary, when it comes to controlling problem players, online casinos can be more proactive, offering self-restraints as well as temporary breaks in the game.

Hola a todos,

Como consejero de adicciones para personas con problemas de juego, desafortunadamente no estoy de acuerdo con Mythos 3. Los casinos en línea son definitivamente más adictivos que los juegos de azar tradicionales.

Las razones son múltiples: disponibilidad constante, mayor velocidad, mayores apuestas y mayor frecuencia de pérdidas, acceso virtual y por tanto más rápido al dinero (acceso a la cuenta frente a tener que retirar efectivo), menor control social, ya que los juegos pueden pasar más desapercibidos, etc.

En mi práctica de consultoría, experimento todos los días que las personas que juegan en línea se vuelven adictas mucho más rápido y se endeudan mucho más que las personas que juegan máquinas reales.

Triste verdad.

¡Muchos saludos!

Yo b0nus_hunter, great post! I totally agree with you about the misconceptions about online casinos. It's all about finding the right one and doing your research. And yeah, online casinos can even be better in terms of helping players with their gaming habits

I eventually missed your original post. I completely agree with points 1 and 2. If you had a chance to read all the casino user reviews we receive every day, you could see that many players rate the casinos with the worst possible rating only because they lost their money there.

Yes, they also believe that someone checks their accounts constantly and makes them lose if they have any winning streak. Casinos don't have to do this at all. The RTP is on their side, so they should eventually win over the player.

When you win, there are casinos that are less willing to pay and they try to find points in their terms and conditions just to find an excuse for not paying the winnings. Players who play with bonuses usually give casinos more chances to find something they could use against them. I witnessed cases where casinos didn't want to pay winnings simply because the max. bet was 5 and the player bet 6 once in 1000+spins. They didn't win anything from the spins, but the casino voided the winnings anyway. The max. bet rule is there to make sure that it won't be too easy for the player to complete the wagering requirement. Yes, you can lose faster when you place high bets, but if you manage to win , then you have enough balance to complete the wagering requirement easily.

I also remember a case where casino didn't want to pay out the full amount of winnings only because the player had 11 cents of bonus money on his account. The casino claimed the bonus was still active thus the bonus terms and conditions applied. They didn't care about the fact that the player couldn't even make such a small bet on a slot that he was playing.

When it comes to the point 3, I have to agree with Anita. I sometimes bet on sports and when there was no online betting, I used to bet once a week since you had to place the bets personally. Nowadays, you can even watch the match live and bet for the next goal, yellow card, a corner kick etc. Betting is so fast and easy that you can simply lose track about how many bets you made. You can simply bet on more occasions during a single weekend than I used to bet on during the whole season. That's what makes it more dangerous in my opinion. The same applies to online casinos that you have with you in your pocket. You wouldn't pay 50 eur just to travel by a public transport back from work, right? But you can lose exactly the same amount or even more while playing the casino games on your phone while travelling home.
