So I tried 888 slots when I scratched $5 casino bonus from 5levelup ticket. Ended +15 while playing big lebowski 0.25 bet spins. Then again a week later was up $70 from playing starburst at 0.10 spins (a couple $15-25 big wins). Yesterday lost $15 of the profit, just because its so damn addictive!

I want to think I'm over that casino ****, but how likely is it to win $70 playing 10-25 cents games? If it makes a difference, it was not just 1 lucky spin, but 3-5 big wins during maybe 2 thousand spins, cause when I wasn't winning, I was breaking even which sustained me playing.

It probably varies, but if you want to know the exact likelihood of different payouts you should probably email 888 and ask. In any case it's at a rate sufficient enough to give the house an edge.

Another +20 yesterday. I definetly see how people can get addicted to this.

A bit off topic, but someone might find it interesting. If I feel like gambling @ -EV at the stakes that won't really effect my bankroll negetively, I open calculator and before spinning, I enter the spin bet, so at first spin I have -10 (cents), then if I win 15 cents, I add +5 before next spin. This makes me aware of my losses or winnings super clearly, and it slows the whole process down, so I won't fall into click click click madness.

If I win say $3 at 10 cents stakes, and I'm in the green, I might do a few 1 level higher stakes spins. This all is kinda entertaining actually

Just another reason I love PS (right now I'm grounded @ 888) is that you can easily restrict the limits of all games including casino, so that you won't take a huge hit to your BR after having 1 too many beers in the evening 888 "responsible gambling" just present you with some text, and "BTW would you like to spin some more?" (nah last part is me)
