I doubt they will arrange RTP based on user locations, if website is fully legal on that territory then it shouldn't be problem for casino to get into trouble with legal authorities, IMHO. Unless it is stated on terms&conditions, it is not acceptable for slot provider to accept this condition. Just my 2 cents.

i haven't read something like this also. rtp varies from location to location. well, we don't know the ultimate truth behind gambling business. but i am more on the site that it is not like this. practice like this will come to light if this is really happening. but so far, it maybe just a speculation of some players. but no basis at all.

What I know right now is maybe only about regional restrictions and indeed that has been felt because for my area there are several sites that are indeed inaccessible and I feel that way. but i just heard about restrictions regarding players winning in one of the regions. But the possibility is small, even if this is true, of course this will not be published, even though I am not too sure about that. Because if it's like that, of course there has to be a clear reason and this is gambling. I think this only depends on luck, not a matter of restrictions on whether you win or not.

You know how casinos have set certain slots to only pay a certain amount to a winner, it it also possible that casinos are using an algorithm to limit how much it can payout for players coming from certain locations to avoid being dragged into legal disputes if a player is paid big money and the local authorities want to know the source and the alike?

Every country have a gambling regulatory institution manned with the responsibility of regulating the activities of all gambling companies that operates within the country. And am sure each country has different amount of maximum payouts stipulated to gambling site and depending on the country the player is playing from the maximum in Mr "A" location might look like a limit from Mr "B" location based on currency value differentiation.
For I haven't come across anything such thing as illigal dispute due to an amount money paid to a winner from a gambling company. All you will need to do is to show the local authorities your winning coupon code from the company site you won the money from showing that the said amount paid into your account was from illigal deal but a win from gambling site, and case closed.

Uhhmmmm yeahh, ofcourse every casino has a different interface and ways of operation.... They also have their principles of management, and that their T/C's...
Most of them aren't registered and licensed; they' just built a site and began a business deal and could decide to offer way more odds than the normalized ones; might be because they ain't spending much on maintainance but I'm not sure that their operations are being monitored.
So when it happens like this, they'll limit the preference of wagering much lest it'll just exceed their paying limits..

The slot games don’t have any algorithms is my opinion it may vary to your opinion. But not our all opinion will be the same. So we no need to worry on this. Some guess on this like their will be some hidden algorithms for the gambling. Many people use the same IP and get captured by the casino companies. Then their will be loss of funds from them. Because the site will ban the accounts of multiple ip with multiple accounts. So it’s better to avoid using of multiple accounts for gambling sites.

If we'll try to cover up our locations by using VPNs or creating multiple accounts, we are already breaking the casino's TOS and it will affect our gambling journey in the future. It's something that we should be mindful of. If we are using a reputable casino, there's an assurance that they aren't using any algorithm just to limit the number of players in a single location. I have never encountered a casino like that. They can track your location but will never ban you for no reason

What I know is that some casinos restrict certain regions, but for the issue of limiting how much a user from a particular region can win is what I have never heard of before, and I don't think any reputable ought to do such an act, because if a user is allowed to deposit any amount of money then why should such user be restricted from how much he/she can play or win? It will be literally unfair doing so. Moreover, we have VPN that changes a users location, or will they still be able to identify even with the use of VPN?

days ago I saw someone commenting on this and I even thought: "if a casino were limiting the amount that the customer can be paid in a game, wouldn't that be something illegal or manipulation?" in my opinion I don't see why a casino would do that, considering that the casino can put in its TOS that each customer can make a bet of X amount at most or it can also put in its TOS that at a maximum withdrawal each person can withdraw Z amount. so the casino doesn't need to be manipulating the games, they have ways that are ethical and legal that they can follow if they know they don't have a big bankroll to pay when some whale wants to make a big bet

I don't think that casino was using algo to limit how much it can be paid out for certain location. The casino was also tracking your IP. How much they can pay to the winner totally depends on the how much liquidity that owned by the casino. The casino will be trying to pay based on what they can afford if you got maximum jackpot. The casino was always using geolocation that determined by IP. Im sure that casino has been thinking about that.

That's why some countries getting prohibited while there are countries being allowed by the casinos. that's why KYC verification will play a lot in this case.

If you mean the casinos are rigging the slots so player can't "win" more than certain amount (after which they will start losing), then yes, that would be illegal and would be considered as scamming. If you are talking about the RTP, then it is same for everyone and the casino can set the RTP. But I doubt any slots would "restrict" or not let users from certain country win. Too much work and not worth the risk. Why would a casino destroy their reputation if they are the one that always win in the long run?

Well, I think you found out what it was about, I also think the same, I think that one of the things that sometimes leads people to pernsara is because they are from third world countries, because generally they always have some kind of prohibition or always because some business can be blocked a bit for being from that type of country, however I think that is something that has no place here in casinos, I think that every casino should be as transparent as possible for everything, and more so in slots , because I think it's one of the highest incomes they have in a casino, well the other games too, but slots are the main thing I think and I don't think they have a bad reputation for restricting earnings to people from certain countries.

That's probably just a thought and we'll never know unless someone who works for a casino tells that they're doing it but for now, I think that they're not doing it.
But there's a sort of idea that whenever someone has been winning a lot, regardless of his location, there goes the algo that they might have detected it and they start to lessen the chance of winning. At least this is only for luck-based games and we all knew that it's not going to be a lucky day forever.

Casinos do not do it based on location yet some providers like Play n Go gives them the option to have changeable RTP thus making this provider give you some really really bad experiences that you can have that feeling that a certain casino is not giving you an advantage because of the location where you are.

This is absolutely not the case as the casinos just implement their house edge which is guaranteed to give them the win over the long run and they don't really care where you are from.In order to not get that feeling,play other providers like Pragmatic Play which does not offer changeable RTP so you know that you only had bad luck when losing and nothing else.

Some casino will find the person involved in the VPN scam, because few people doing that VPN scam to make big win from the casino. Sometimes some huge bucks winner will be found on such scam activities. Some people also involved in wring algorithms to crack the casino using the programs. But only few gamblers had a good program skills to win the match. Most of the people will get captured at their first game, then they will be permanently ban from the websites. Even they had 1 Bitcoin in their wallet, as per agreement everything get into company wallet. It doesn’t mean the company had scammed the person involved in the hacking. This should be essential one for now.

There are policies every casino is expected to follow and online casinos are expected to follow the provably fair policy according to@ Accardo and I'm sure following a policy means they're also been watched.
As long as a casino is duly and fully register, then I see no reason being scared of legal over a winning of a customer because the government is supposed to be happy because of the tax that will be pushed to them.
All you've mentioned so far is very common with illegal casinos who try everything possible to stay hided but at the long run still gets caught up with the law and also keep taking your money and when there is a big win they just vanish and give silly excuses.

Since they are casino owners, they can change the code anytime, but this step is unfair to players. Though they can put up a disclaimer to gamblers in a specific country saying that they are limiting the rewards for the gambler's safety and that they will have no trouble withdrawing big money that they won, I am sure the gambler does not want this. I recommend to casino owners that they do not limit it because it is the gambler's responsibility how to receive that money, and you may lose customers if you do so because it is not fair to all.

Do you have any evidence that backs up this claim? Many online Casinos especially the live Casinos work under the provably fair policy and such things aren't expected to happen under this policy. Unless the Casino in question don't have provably fair policy then it's said to be possible. If you are having any doubt about the Casino you are using then go for another online casino and stake bets. But, generalizing on all online Casinos to be a part of this action, I don't believe your instincts are correct. Like every other persons, Casinos only restrict some regions from playing not from winning.

I think this is very unlikely to happen.
And if there is any law that limits winnings, the casino needs to make players well informed about this and also limit the bets before this happens.
Limiting the bet is something very simple to do, because always before the bet, the system knows how much you are betting and what the multiplier is, so they know how much you can win if you hit. It would then suffice to limit the multiplier factor.
Any other way of limiting without the player knowing would be viewed with a lot of scorn by the community.

I see no reason a casino should be acting so suspicious because I see no reason why a casino will limit first the amount to be played by some players from a certain location and still limit that winning potentials and odds fir the reason that they don't want suspicion which already a very suspicious act.
Before a casino especially an online casinos begins operation in a particular country, they have to first seek a certificate of operation which in details tells the casinos it's terem and the both parties comes to mutual agreement and a deal of operation is sealed.
What you said is mostly common with illegal casinos and a player like me wouldn't want to risk my money in such casinos.

I would love to see if you have proof about this claim. At least this can make us point our VPN to the country that can get huge wins from slots. I also watch streamers that claims that seeds from certain place is far better than others. But I don't believe this kind of stuff. Slots result is random and seeds, even thought they are different in every country, I am sure slots provider will do their best in order to deliver fair gaming.

This kind of belief certainly exists among slot gamblers, but it may not prove true if you actually play at a reputable casino with a good provider too. I don't fully believe it, but indeed things like this have become a myth in slot games.

Have you ever been cheated by slots when you literally couldn't win anything in 100 auto spins?
I think you might be wondering why this is, but I don't know if a provider can be proven to be cheating its players in a single session.
