Well many interesting iew points in this thread but i think its time we cut cut 3dice a little bit of slack. We all know you cant win at a casino all the time and every time we log in we all know that from time to time were going to take a beating and these beatings are sometimes short while other times they are long. They have been in every casino ive ever played in. Winning streaks usually happen in a similar fashion. Ive seen enough screenies to know there are some ery lucky 3 dice players out there and I imagine some ery unlucky ones as well. Luck is fickle and fleeting but always hits eventually, the good AND the bad. 3Dice whilst a casino of integrity and player commitment also has to make a profit and that profit comes from us. We cant all win even though it is nice to go oooh wow every now and again. Im one of the unluckier players at 3Dice and dont i know it lol but ive come to realise that in all liklehood its probably my bad luck and bad timing and to blame the casino for that is kinda stupid... | | Read Entire Entry |

I also get the "connecting" thing usually about every 5 spins. I didn't used to have any problems but it is really bad now. So bad that there is no way that I could play a timed tournament like the MG ones. But I just lay it off to my phone connections. I am still using a phone modem because I'm in BFE and can't get anything else and I am lucky if it works at all.

But I'm sure most of the machines in the mountains are set to the lowest returns. They can change the returns on a whim tho'. The machines there all it takes it a key flick and press a few buttons to change the return, it can be done when they feel like it.

When you deposit at any online casino and see that you are constantly being disconnected (and i have dozen's of screenies showing in real and tourney play) It is extremely frustrating!! More so when playing with real money!
thus the reason for the comment that I feel like I am just losing money to a casino I am not actually connected to! (if this makes sense.)
It sounds more like a problem with your broadband provider than your computer seeing as you have tried it one two machines this eliminates the possibility of it being that. Which provider are you with because there are some really shitty ones out there.

It's also possible that the slowness could simply be growing pains on their end. I don't really know, I'm just speculating. But I doubt it's foul play.
And their slots are extreeeeeemely high ariance compared to other casino software. It's a bit unreasonable to expect to turn $10 or $20 into $300 every session by playing slots.
How about just once SlotsWizard? 20 odd deposits from me not one cashout not one. Even with Enzos kindness of the odd freebie here and there it all still amounted to nothing, zip, nada. Now THATS unreasonable!!

Mystic.....although your connection isn't super fast, it should be more than sufficient.............unless there is something else running in the background on that PC. Do you know how to do a ctrl/alt/delete to see what processes are running, if so please do that and give us a screenshot. You may have to scroll and do more than one screenie.
I'm sure part of the problem is not enough ram......but lets make sure you don't have connection issues by looking at what is not obvious.

Yea...something like that Paul...
The problem with Cherokee is the fact that they are "self regulated" Tribal Gaming Commission...there is no State Gaming Commission so in essence they police theirself, kinda like the online casinos do...

Doesn't have anything to do with the fact that they are rigged or not...it's the payback percentage that they can set the games up at by just simply tweaking the RNG to a tighter house edge against the player.
Harrahs Cherokee has done the same thing several times by changing out the RNG chips in the machines and I know that for a fact from inside information from a high up exec.there, so it does not surprise me at all really that 3Dice has done the same thing in order to recoup their initial customer retention expenditures for the last quarter...thats how these places work...

Yes I know petey! and no, it's not mean...
Maybe now it can be understood a "tad" clearer as to how I can feel like I am not even connected to 3dice and each bet is lost somewhere out in cyberspace.
I do get all the "need more memory, space, gigs, speed" but in all acutality that is a "want" right now.
maybe in the future.... thanks everyone for your help.

Please do a copy and paste here. The up and down speed, please include both. Remember to have nothing else accessing the net at the same time. Also.......include what your ISP says your maximum up and down speed is supposed to be, please.
It's fine if you want to wait till tomorrow.

You may simply need to divert some RAM at your on-board graphics card. This solution helps on MG slot tournaments btw, so read how to do it here.
FYI I run a 1.6Ghz AMD with 1024meg RAM and it runs just fine - although its right on the edge as after a looong 3Dice session I sometimes need to reboot if I want to run something heavy after. But I'm talking 4/5 hr sessions or longer and may be down to stuff i run alongside, so take that with a pinch o' salt.

Well, everyone, I hate to say this, but I play at 3Dice all the time. I have found that I can have a 2 week run of bad luck, followed by about a week of good luck. From my understanding of high ariance, this would be within the norm. I do see many patterns repeated on thei slots. These patterns will continue for about 20,000 spins, then change to another pattern, which may or may not be in favor of the player. Overall, I see no real difference since Christmas.

Keep in mind that it's 10,000 kilobits per second, not kilobytes per second. Divide by 8 to get kilobytes per second = 1,250 KB/second = ~1.22 megabytes per second, which is quite decent by current standards.
