I don't understand why you say it's a much bigger reward when you get winnings from free spins? I think it's the opposite actually, it's way more difficult to make a profit and to get a positive PnL from real spins because when you get a losing spin you lose your stake while you don't lose anything when you get a losing free spin.
On the average, when you play with real spins you're likely to lose the house edge of the game : 1 - RTP
While with free spins, it's the opposite, you are likely to earn the RTP of the game : 1 - House Edge
that is to say, if you get $100 of free spins, you are likely to win $95 on average if the house edge of the game is 5%
because free spins don't make you lose anything while they give you the winnings of the spin without the (free) stake.
I’m confused with this analysis, that’s a lot of math for a response to a simple post made by Pokapoka124 and coinerer. It’s very simple, if I win $10 from a free bet I will be as glad as if I won $1000 playing with my own money. And I think 120 spins is a good odd to win at least $20 even on a bad day. Reading the comments of those who have benefited from the free spins and how much they have won so far I would love to try out the mental games.
Well, I'll disagree with both of them, with coinerer, who either doesn't know or is shitposting, and, in fact, I've reported
one of his posts because he didn't deign to read what I wrote before asking his questions; and also with Saint-loup, although he makes a more complex and accurate analysis.
You don't get a bigger reward one way or another, the reward is the same. Being the RTP around 96%, for each 25 USD you bet you are going to get back on average 24 USD. It doesn't matter if you take out those USD from your pocket or if they have given them to you as free spins. The reward is the same.
The difference between the two is that with free spins you have had a 25 USD reward beforehand, but the reward you get once you play is the same one way or the other.
I think my difference of opinion with Saint-loup's is almost a matter of semantics, Coiner is the one who doesn't know or writes rubbish.
