Online Casinos in general: Is gambling still fun under the new rules?

Hello,

actually I do not gamble for over a year and enjoy, in the suddenly abundant money. Yes you realize only when you stop, what you actually had less 😂

Somehow it came that I wanted to play Poker with a friend this year, in a casino. Unfortunately, the table was not occupied on the day... we were but already checked in... So come each twenty euros at the machine. I won 1600 and got out of there about 30 min later. Somehow it triggered this itch again... can there be more? Two months later I went there again with another friend and each had 400 minus 😅 that was the sign for me to leave it again... Well but the 400 euros? Just gone? I try it online because there was once in a while a big win. Have registered through the site here at a new casino and deposited without bonus 50 euros. 300 euros won

The way there was boring and tedious.... Spins take forever, maximum 1 euro bet. I had enough and wanted to pay them out... until I was faced with a huge Verification process. Well no matter the 300 I zocke faster down than this to lead through... so I continued and was at some point landed at 1400 plus. That was a sum where I said now the effort of verification is in relation 🙈 so quickly made and bang everything rejected.... Credit card blurred (nonsense) etc. But I wanted to stay with the 1400 and not gamble further... after days and days it took until the new documents were again rejected or accepted (went all piece by piece) I zockte but again came to 1500 sometime to 3600 and yesterday then finally the last document was accepted. It took about 2 weeks which were probably calculated to gamble everything. I have now paid out 2900 euros that were still there and also have no more plans to play. 1 euro stake is too little for me and the 5 second turn well it's good to keep the abstinence 😂 the year was my first green year since I play and well a good moment to leave it again

Thanks to the site here for the casino topliste everything has worked out well. Had in the meantime briefly worried that it is fraud, because again and again everything was rejected and messages from support 2 days have always been waiting

So I have become accustomed to the 5 seconds rule and find it mitlerweile reasonably sensible that you can not make 10 spins in 8 seconds or so....in the end, it must actually know everyone himself, but with conscious play has actually then little to do
Also, the € 1 limit does not bother me, but I have always played in the range of 20 to 30 cents, so no wonder.... 😉

What bothers me are the circumstances with the providers that already have a German sports betting license and that I actually only use. ( is probably nonsense, because there are no dt. Casino licenses anyway yet, but if there is ever trouble with the bank or so, I feel safer then...)
The RTP is somewhere between 87 and 92 percent, depending on the Provider, and that is very noticeable in my eyes, more than I had thought before the conversion. ( also casinos without sports betting license have these bad AQ to a large extent of course mitlerweile). On a x1000 hit or higher I am now waiting for over 15 months I think about. Of course, this does not happen often, but in the years before at least every few months on average... Even longer sessions hardly possible, either a medium win at the beginning of the then directly gone or nothing at all. The only tactic to reduce the loss would be to pay out wins that reach 2 to 3 times the Deposit directly, but that is just again little fun
In addition, there is the absence of so many slots that I used to like to play
Netent practically completely gone except for a few new releases
BTG mostly only 3 slots or so
Yggdrasil and thunderkick often heavily reduced offer
Quickspin almost completely gone
(I refer now to the casinos that I use, which are jackone, tipico, bah, interwetten, betano)
Casino promos hardly ever take place

I will therefore either until there are German licenses but again look for a casino that is at least from the game selection and promos etc as before or leave it altogether

Because the fun, to come back to your question, is so already rather sparse...

It depends on the game. Sometimes I still pay in at Videoslots, because they pay out super fast
And there I play but exclusively Megaways games or similar. Since I don't play these for more than 1 euro anyway, it doesn't hurt as much and the 5 second rule isn't as noticeable

It's different with book games like book of dead or legacy of dead. That's where the waiting really gets on my nerves. And when the slot is running, I also like to set the bet above 1 euro

But all in all, it doesn't bother me that much anymore, because there are still enough alternatives.

Fun definitely gone.
I have been primarily sports betting for many years and when there was a crazy win or I had a payout and there was rest, I liked to run it with quickspins on some slot and was entertained that way. This is completely gone with the 5 seconds and 1€ limit.
At that time at Bet365 regularly / irregularly 5 € spins on Diamond Valley (I have otherwise made 10/20 cents spins) and then often times a few hundred rausgeholt or just 50 €-100 € away

If possible, I play where the old rules still apply. Otherwise you really fall asleep in some slots...

No, it's not fun, and the whole process (KYC, bank, payout, etc.) is just too insecure for me. That's why I stopped gambling online.

I can confirm that 1000% since then:

"... and enjoy, at the suddenly in abundance available money. Yes you realize only when you stop what you actually had less..."

If you look at the development of the last months, then you can definitely see that the new legislation has changed some things at the OCs. Especially the departure of players who want to play with higher stakes than 1 EUR is certainly extremely painful for the OCs, which can be indirectly seen in the high frequency of TV advertising of some OCs (new players the country needs!).

If you take the multitude of dubious OCs sprouting out of the ground out of the equation, then the situation is nevertheless as follows:

Even if my favorite casino still offers all the great games, still pays out quickly, etc., I as a gambler don't want to suddenly change my entire gaming behavior from 2 EUR autoplay to 40 cents 5-second click, just because some jackass decided that I couldn't afford it or that I was therefore sliding into an addiction spiral. No, I'll just look elsewhere and spend my money where I can do it the way I want to

Just imagine if you had to buy a bottle of water every time you went to Edeka and had to hand in a confirmation that you are not an alcoholic if you wanted to buy a six-pack of beer, but this would not be the case in the Netto next door. I would know where I would buy my beer in the future.

This won't be a big thorn in the side of a few beer buyers, because they don't buy six-packs but only individual bottles, but ultimately six-pack sales suddenly collapse into the bottomless pit.

This is exactly how you can imagine the current situation of OCs, which run under German legislation. The consequences of this are exactly those which can be seen clearly - not only here in the Meckerforum - but everywhere:

* Winning opportunities have been cut back to compensate for losses from player attrition
* Wins are withheld to tempt the player to continue playing
* dubious OCs sprout from the ground like weeds
* etc.

We Germans have a purchasing power that should not be underestimated, so the change in the law and the accompanying player decline, has and will continue to have a direct impact on the OC market. Many OCs will not survive this and may end up resorting to more of the above practices. But ultimately, the future will be that you will have a few OCs to choose from, all networked and synchronized, and it will no longer matter where or what you play.

In the end, a gambler will have no choice but to either stop gambling away his money abroad or to gamble his money in the virtual equivalent of a shabby backyard joint and hope that he doesn't get any out of his mouth when he wins something...

Have fun anyway

No it does not. Zero point zero. The only good thing about the new rules is that you don't lose your money so quickly and maybe you're more aware of how much you're spending
Otherwise it's just no fun, no excitement and just a pastime with even smaller wins.
