Hello,

As the title says I have a query about online slots, I've never really played them before but recently I've had few free £10 plays on the ladbrokes site due to playing various games in the shop and being offered free £ for playing certain amounts on games.

 

Was on there last night playing rainbow riches and I had the main game open in a window and the site open in my main window, what I noticed was that as I pressed start, If i was due a win my balance on the main site would alter to the amount i'd won even though the reels hadn't finished spinning, this even happened when getting  leaprechaun features whereby my balance went up by the amount I was to win on the feature even though I had not started the feature yet.

 

Is this normal, seems a bit strange to me but as I said I've never really played online slots before.

Anyone else noticed this?

Cheers

cant say ive ever seen it, but the result of your spin is known as you press start - and not when the last reel finishes.

All correct nails, I'd hide the Main screen, blue print games do this, where as netent ones don't strange!!
As nails says when you press start the machine has already counted your wins or in my case loses before the reels stop, that's why if a game goes wrong or errors and you refresh said game it'll always finish the spin or bonus you had.
I personally rather play online than in arcades due to the rtp is usually 95% plus. But be careful don't go mad on the stakes or it'll suck you harder than a Thai prossy
On two dolla a pop lol.
In other news I tried a new bingo site yesterday put mine £10 on had £40 free managed to win progggy at £280 so had to wager another 160 but still managed to cash out at £200 that's if they let me have it lol.

I remember seeing videos of someone playing online, experiencing this and saying about it, spoiling the excitement of not knowing how much you were going to win and how they were trying to not look at the balance when playing. I rarely play nowadays, but do occasionally do £50 on starspins, the machines on this site, open in a new window, but if for some reason, I want to split screen and have another webpage open, I notice the main page is still showing balance £50, even after numerous spins. Some sites, even have a little balance refresh button next to your balance, along with hide.

 

As Nails says, the outcome is known for spins for definite once you hit the button, it's just a matter of the machine spinning in the symbols. I do believe though on some sites, the outcome with some bonus games and free spins, isn't.

Thanks for the replies guys, just thought it was strange.

I'll hide the main page in future, min you I only generally play when they give me free money to play with.

Cheers
