It s nice to see you again on the forum Lipstick we missed you. I hope you spent nice hollidays.

As an advice on slots, you should play with caution and know when to STOP. A bankroll gestion is needed in order to be a winner. 100 x minimum bet for me. when you reach 200 x minimum bet you increase your bet to 100 x the new bet size.... etc

I hope my advice is usefull for you. 

Thank you Lipstick for another great contest.!  I love this one.!  It will be a wake up call for us to think about ways to win and understand the terms better.  It will also, lessen the complaints and realize where we had faults and not just the Casinos.  We will win more and learn from others posts, i.e. strategies, understand terms, awareness, casinos pros and cons, and conentrate on basically following the leaders and mentoring the newbies, etc.  And to research carefully and think before we spend and play.

This will be a great success!

play with one-in-a-half of the money

never spend all first time

Hello everyone and good luck in the New Year! One of the most important rules is to play for the money that, in case of loss, will not affect your family budget, your life, allocate a certain amount to yourself, which will not be a pity in cases of what to lose, and in case of a loss, it will stop on time, never play for money which you need for other things necessary in life, in no case do not borrow, take loans for the game, do not forget the game in the casino is not a means of income but only a hobby and a pleasant time.

I agree make sure Casino is reputable I have won $5000 twice and never able to collect.  Kept stalling until I gave up and played.  Also watch terms and playthru.  Some are so high you can never cash out. 

Awesome contest, Love Lcb!

My advice is to remember on higher variance games that if you just hit something big your more likely to get hit by lightning then  do it twice. So come back later, that way you dont spend it all back

My general tip for all gamblers is simple: always set your loss/win limits before gaming session and never break it.

There were many times in 2017 when i won good amounts of money but then lost it because continued playing after big wins.

If possible , do away with all your credit cards.  Depositing using them is very easy and very tempting.   Use your bank to deposit into your wallets, it will be more work and time consuming to do yet it is a good way to control you unnecessary deposits. :)

Most of us know the ups and  downs of gambling. And whatever the reason,  you started gambling in the first place really doesn't matter. If you dont enjoy it anymore, quit. When it starts to fill like a job, quit. When it starts to interfere with your daily life, quit. When everyone says you have a problem, quit. and one more thing, when playing(if you still enjoy it,lol) if you win triple times your original cost, CASH OUT, get a ticket. You can alway keep playing. Put another $10 in and start over. Its alot harder to put that ticket back in the machine, than to sit there and play off the credits. We dont view credits as cash. Its all a mind game and we love it. Hope this helps. Good luck all!

While my favorite sort of casinogame is Poker I will start with a litte quote from Chris Moneymaker which fits perfect to my tips:

"The beautiful thing about poker is that everybody thinks they can play."

Poker is (in my opinion) the type of Casinogame where skill and strategy has a much bigger impact of your results than luck. One of the main reason is that you play human vs human and there´s no implementent adavantage for the room and that´s also the biggest danger for your Bankroll (some good point regarding that a few post up)! As a fact: The most people who know the handvalue think they can play it and that is so unbelivable wrong. 
My main Tipp for everyone who will start with Poker: Look for a Site/Room with a good school and at best some Twitch-Streamer (forget yt only Streamer!). From these guys you can learn what basics for Poker you´ve to know! Be active on the Streamchat and ask those guys anything what you don´t understand! Read the lessons and articel (like you do here) and start on the lowest Limits! If you don´t know the basics and have some advanced knowledge Poker will get boring very fast, but if you´re willing to learn from the Pros you´ll see it´s on of the best Games in the World! Sooner or later you may be able to just live from playing Poker, but I guarantee you, you will never fall in the red area!

One of my strategies in the game in the casino is not to get hung up on one slot, on one game and if the slot does not give or a small payback in it and there was no bonus game for 50 max 100 spins then I change the slot and often change the bet, then raise it, then I drop until I find a suitable bet and a slot that would not be bad playing the same way I change the software vendors, it happens that it is permissible that NetEnt does not play all the slots at all, then I try another Microgaming software, also consider some factors for each slot provider , games such as RTP, percentage of chi, volatility and variance in each slot are different, for example, the same slots from NetEnt give a bonus game more often than Microgaming, but winning your bet multiplication usually have slots from Microgaming is much higher, more.

Dont play when you can not focus, avoid distractions at all costs!!

A friend gave me an advice when to play roulette i didn t tried it but he told me when you have a lot of money on roulette try this one, you put a bet on the last color (red or black) and when the spin come you bet again on the color that comes so when a serie of black or red comes you get a lot of money on it.

i wish to all lcb members and me better luck,smart move and more Jackpots :D

Great contest

I think that, any player, 1st of all, should control very well how much he/she can spend in gambling, to avoid personal disapointments, and, if in month 1 or 2 or 3 there´s not enough money for it, don´t desesperate, the casinos will not disappear !!!.

2nd, after the player have a very good self-control, all players should read very carefuly the t&c´s of all the casinos that want´s to sign up, because, the question of "casino 1 is better than casino 2", is a bit unclear.

Different casinos have different t&c´s, and some players may think that the most important is the bonuses on deposits, others like more free chips, others cash-back, many players can give more importance to the time that it takes to withdraw, others can think that can wait some time to receive, as long as they are assured.

Also, when you see casinos offering bonuses like "1000%" $100 and $200" free chip´s and similar offers, be very careful with those ones, "when the offer is too much, the poor suspects", is already old but is still true.

Before check the t&c´s, check also the license jurisdictions of the casino, and if is a license that does not really protect the players, in my opinion, don´t read the t&c´s of the casino and simply ignore it and DON´T SIGN UP to it, if is a solid and reputable casino in a jurisdiction that protects the player, go ahead to read the t&c´s, not instantly join, because even the most reputable casinos, sometimes have some t&c that player 1 likes but player 2 don´t, and that does not make the casino be more rogue or not, just because 1 of the potential players don´t like of that specific t&c.

After find a casino that is licensed in a good jurisdiction, and that have t&c´s that are in accordance with what player search, go ahead, join it and enjoy it !!

But don´t stay thinking that the gamble is to win because if all the players were winners, how casino would survive? don´t forget about it !!, and don´t run after the lost money, gambling is an entertainment, and must not be an addiction !!!

When it comes to really gamble, and in my specific case, i only play slots, so there´s no strategy to win !!, anyone that says "i have a big strategy to always win on slots", sorry, but that´s not true, you never know when the slot will hit or not !!, is a question of be with lucky or not.

my only advice is, if you gave some spins and the slot not gave even a bit of fun to you, change to another, not because it will increase the chance of win or lose, but to can have a bit of more fun. But even this, is a bit relative, while i like to do like that, other´s may dislike it.

Always think of gambling as leisure, and if you win, much better!! enjoy the winnings and don´t put it back in the gambling, but enjoy many others activity´s that life gives!

Good luck on the tables, and HIT IT BIG.

My advice is to bonus shop. Before you decide where to deposit your money, shop around a bit. Pick 5 or so of your favorite casinos and compare promos & bonuses. But don't forget to always check what the wagering requirements are at your casinos of choice. Weigh the wagering against the bonuses to maximize playing time as well as cash out likelihood. If ur smart, u can make a little go a long way. Don't stay playing a slot that's not letting u hit very much within 20 spins max. Alternate between a few favorites. Above all, have fun. If it starts to feel like ur getting upset stop playing, period. For at least 30 mins. Maybe even a day or 2. Never try to make online gambling a career. Just have fun!

Treat your deposit as an entertainment fee,just like paying tickets and snacks to the movies.   This way , it will not be that painful to lose.   Winning something and being able to withdraw is a bonus.

Hey Lipstick!  I hope you had a great holiday and that 2018 is a great year for you and the LCB team and the 100,000+ players on this site!

I already broke my first resolution of the year which was super simple:

Win more and loose less...lol

I have been playing more land based casinos recently and one rule is simple.  Know when to walk away.  For me that is when I win my daily goal, or lose a certain amount.  I predetermine these amounts before I walk in to the casino and so far have been pretty good with keeping to the win/ loss exit strategy.

Good luck everyone

If you are catastrophically unlucky recently in the casino game, I highly recommend taking a timeout from a few days to a month and not trying to win back your last losses, thereby making new deposits in the casino, as in rare cases it turns out to recoup.

Always deposit your money only in highly reputable casinos. Avoid casinos without license or those whuch have a bad reputation in gaming community.

You have to play in a good mood luck follow your mood, i noticed that when i m loosing and i need a cigarette i need to smoke it if not i continue to be nervous and anxious and i loose. You need to be calm in all situations. 

Choose your casinos wisely! If you´re playing just 4 fun look for casinos with a large number of Games and a high bonus offer. If you´re going to play High Stakes chose a Casino with a good Rakeback/VIP-offer and if needed low wagering - better 0 bonus.

play only with money that you have over from that month and look for a good bonus wat are the wagering amounts of that bonus and if the wagering is only for the bonus ore for the deposit + bonus manny people forget that and say only 30x times wagering but instead its 30x times wagering deposit+bonus so its 60x in total.

gotta know the difference between a game hitting and a game being hot

Are you ready to withdraw and dont want to play it back.

Then withdraw and close your account for 7 days .

Most casinos have a responsible gaming section check there or go to live chat.

Tip of today

My tip today is to those players that, When win, want the money fast.

1st play. Only in casinos that dont have the "pending period"

2nd, is normal that a casino asks you to send some documents to verify your account.

When joining to an online casino that offers the fast or instant withdraws, dont wait that the casino asks you to verify your account, or your withdrawal can take more time until the casino have your account verified.

To avoid those situations, When creatimg an account, instantly contact support to verify your account, só When you are able to do a withdraw, you can get your money faster!

There are plenty of useful tips posted here, this is a very useful contest too, it will help newbies for sure.

This is how I think the best way to play it safe.

First of all, play only if you have money to spare, do not play with money you don't have.

Second, LCB is a great place to read casino reviews and therefore it is a good start to consult some information regarding casinos. My advise to start here.

A casino must have visible licences, legit licences of course. This way, when something goes wrong (non payment etc), you know where to turn to.

After signing up, send them your documentation to verify your account before making a deposit, also withdrawal will be processed a lot faster this way.

Make sure the casino has 24/7 support for faster assistance in case you have a question.

In case of claiming deposit bonuses, I recommend to read the full terms regarding them because casinos tend to change their terms regularly, I know reading them is kinda dull but it is necessary. A lot of players didn't get paid simply because they breached one of the terms.

I also recommend to play at casinos with withdrawal lock feature such as Rizk and Casumo. Once a withdrawal is locked, reversing them is not possible.

Take screenshots of bonus terms, deposits, withdrawals and gaming history as insurance in case they refuse to pay.

Never request a self-exclusion because a lot of casinos are run by the same company, any winnings from sisters casino will be voided because of it. So if you are not planning to play anymore, just leave it as it is.

Winning is a matter of luck but you can make your own luck, play low, it's better to win slow than to lose fast. Also, make sure to take a break once in a while, when you're tired, you'll tend to bet roughly.

There are a lot more tips but I think these are the basic tips that will help you quit far in your gambling journey.

My advice for today is to choose the good promotions to play. No need to participate i every promotion but in the one you prefer, and you don t have to play everyday if there is an unlucky day you don t have to waste your money for the rest of the day. 

Choose casino with less limits of amount to pay out and with method payment most times in use. Always check if You get some update of terms

What i can share to everyone here at LBC is that You should know when to stop playing when your up or even down in the game any game cause that is always my problem i cant stop playing even im already winning most of the times but there are times that i really plan what to do when i am already winning and i should stop when im already up because if you think about it gong home when your already up means you can always come back and play again with your winnings and not your money anymore that will be a very big advantage for you, just put yourself in control of the game. Thank You and Good Luck!

Todays gamblers tip is about what I do when I hit big in a land based casino!

First thing I do is to take care of the waiter/waitress/dealers and give the players I came with a little good luck bonus money.

Then, after I have collected my winnings, I walk away from the casino floor and relax for a little while.    Sometimes this involves a trip to the gym, pool or spa.  Other times, its a meal or drinks at one of the nice restaurants in/near the casino.  Occassionally we'll head out and do a fun activity away from the casino.

I find that getting away and enjoying some of the big win is a great way to celebrate the win, and make sure it all doesnt go back in the casino.  Plus if/when you return to the casino your head is cooler, and so you may be a better judge of how to continue to play.

Good luck to all the big winners out there!

Sometimes wearing a lucky T-shirt or lucky jean can make you feeling that you are lucky on that day and it works. I used to wear a special T-shirt for me when i manage to go to gamble on a casino. Doing also the same habits as you do in a lucky day make you feeling that you will be lucky on that day. 

if a casino offers no deposit bonus or free spins for new players, play with it 1st b4 u decide to deposit at that casino to get a feel for the casino and see what games they have

My advice is to not take any advice from me. I haven't done anything right lately. Last year had several cashouts stream in(just like I always wanted) over $3,000. I should have done more with it and not let it slip away. 

Another tip - be patient and if you decided to make a withdrawal, never cancel it. I lose a lot of money in 2017 when i was waiting for verification/withdrawal processing and i cancelled it and continued to play.

The thing that I do wrong, as I have heard others do too, is not cash out when I am ahead. I always think that my winning streak will continue and I can win more. I tell myself that I will only go down so far, but then keep changing my mind. This year, when I get ahead, I am going to withdraw a good portion of my winnings and leave some money to play with. It is easier for me to not change a withdrawal request than to stop at a certain point when the money is right there. Then, I will stop when the funds are gone and still have collected some of my winnings.

Today's advice is just have fun. So what if u lose money. Don't play with anything u can't afford to lose. But when u do play,  MAX BET MAX BET MAX BET. u win some n u lose some. That's life.

a tip for you

when you are in a winning streak and you are thinking like "i can win more" "its going down" "win more, go down".... withdraw something like HALF of what you won.

EX: deposited 50€, balance increased to €150.... instead of continue play until lose all or win more and more, withdraw 75€ and play with the other, if winning streak continues, GOOD, if not, at least you already had withdrawn half of it and had some winnings even if short.....

My tip for today is read the fine print before attempting a withdrawal.  A recent online casino experience from a cousin made me look into this more after they won a lot from some free spins and had issues withdrawing.

A lot of casinos offer free spins or free chips to let you try the games.  However, on some you have to roll over the winnings a certain number of times before you can cash out (roll over/wager requirements).  There are also sometimes minimum or maximum withdrawal amounts on the winnings.  Additionally, you may have to provide documents or register with personal information to be able to withdraw. 

While these can make you upset if you win a lot on your free spins or free chips, and can not withdraw all of it... try and remember, it was a promotional offer from the casino that did not cost you anything.  You had fun and earned a little more than you had before you started playing.  Free money is always great and you can deposit it again!

LCB has a lot of promotional offers where you get to try the casinos out before you make a deposit.  Good luck!

Always set a monthly gambling limit. I try to always leave some money in each of the casino's I play at. That way I have something to play.

gamble only wen you are in the mood dont gamble wen you dont have good feeling about that day to play . dont force your gamble needs play only wen you have fun wen playing slots ore gambling .

ive made countless rollback withdrawals and  99% of the time  have ended up loosing it all 

so my big advise to others like myself ....who just cant help themselves... is to...

FLUSH ur WITHDRAWALS!!!

flushing a withdrawal is removing the withdrawal from the pending peroid and sending it straight to processing.

After you have flushed your withdrawal you will not be able to reverse it back into your gaming account

any decent casino will allow u to do this. just contact support and ask them to do this for u.

go to the banking section and click on reverse withdrawal to make 100% certain it has been flushed afterwards

Dont wagger the money you don t have or you have to save. Try don t make your passion an addiction, wagger only the extra money you can use. Be in peace with your self. When you spend a day playing this casino games. Take 1 -2 hours to go outside and drink a coffee or change your mind and don t return to gamble until you forgot that you still have money or you will gamble it again and loose.

Advice for playing free chips is read the terms and conditions.  Play throughs vary and terms limit the amount of ndb chips you can play in a row.

If possible, look for casinos that has low WR on bonuses.  And it is a plus if the casino you are playing provides free tournaments where one can earn free credits or free spins.  :)

If you want to make money - do not play in the casino, but go to work (joke).
In general, there is no special strategy for playing in the casino, and as soon as you think that you have found a way to win and you even succeeded, you have to come up with a new strategy. And most importantly, great luck to everyone and never play a debt or the last money.
And of course play only in proven casinos, for which there are positive feedback from the players.
Everything else about the variance of games and other "smart" words will not help win.
P.S.For me, 2017 ended with a successful win in the casino Riobet with a free ticket for the tournament of 50,000 chips, in which I managed to take the second place, then there seemed to be an endless band of luck for about a month, eventually from scratch I was able to win and withdraw about 15,000 dollars. 

screenshot of payment part

best advice is to get out while its hot

When registering with a new casino, be sure to read the information about it in reviews on such authoritative forums as LCB, read player reviews, input methods, withdrawal methods and terms of processing, as well as if you have a first deposit bonus, be sure to review the rules of bonus repayment, read the terms of the bonus, which maximum bet is allowed with an active bonus, which games can not be played with the bonus, it is forbidden to hit a wager in certain slots, in some casinos it is automatically configured and you can not enter from any slot, do not boot up the game if there is a bonus, but not all casinos have such a function, keep it in mind, it will be insulting if you win a big jackpot and at the same time break the standard rules and casino conditions, always read the rules and conditions of the casino and stick to them . I also try to immediately send all necessary documents for personal verification, account verification, so that in case of winning and withdrawing funds, I save time on account verification, because some casinos take this process quite a lot of time. And one more tip if you won a large amount and rested in limits or just won a little and the conclusion does not happen for some reason, then do not forget about the temporary self-exclusion function from the game, so you can not even if you want to continue the game on that the period of time for which you self-excluded, thereby you will wait for your winnings, your withdrawal of funds.

Another thing that I decided to do is take a break from a casino when I seem to be losing. When my balance seems to be just dwindling away, I log out from the casino and return at a different time to see if my luck has changed. This helps to make my funds and playing time to last longer.
