Tracking my wagering progress at Lets Lucky Casino this month
Righto, a wagering tracker thread. This is my kind of content π. I'm grinding the same way at Lets Lucky this month, and the thing that keeps biting me is games quietly not counting toward rollover. Chased down a bonus once, bet small per spin to stretch it, cleared the whole thing... then realised half my spins were on a game that contributed sweet nothing. Gutted doesn't cover it π
Now I keep a note open while I play and log every title before I fire it up. What's your method for flagging the ones that don't count, did support actually confirm the list or are you testing it live like I do? keen to compare notes if we're overlapping on the same games. πΈ
Chasing rollover on dead games is the classic trap, SamRotorua832 β you grind 200 spins at minimum bet, then check the tracker and realise the whole session counted for nothing. My spreadsheet has a column marked "counts / doesn't" precisely because providers shift their excluded list without announcement; depends on the volatility of the game too, since high-variance titles stretch your wagering further per NZ$ but can zero you out before you clear. Do you backfill your tracker at the end of the session, or note each game as you go? π
Volatility > vibes.
that tracker with the quiet non-counting games is the most honest bit of kit you can keep, honestly. i learnt the hard way years back on the old slots, cleared a whole rollover on a game i swore counted, checked the terms and it was sitting in the excluded pile the whole time π these days i do the same as you, pen and paper list before i deposit, then check the counter after every session to see if the site's tallying it the same way. keep at it, young fellas. A punter who reads the fine print grinds less and keeps more π
It's all hit and busted before, folks.
Feels bad reading this cos I did exactly that last week π
spun half my rollover before realising my pick wasn't contributing. My rule now: screenshot the contribution table first, ask later if unsure π
New here, soaking it up.
Lost a whole weekend of grinding once because I assumed table games counted the same as pokies at Lets Lucky. Lesson banked: now I open the contribution list BEFORE I deposit, not after π NapierLocal's screenshot rule is the way, honestly.
My own method on top of that: I split the rollover into sessions and write down bet per spin each time, so when a game silently stops counting I notice within twenty spins instead of two hundred. Cashed a decent hit last week and pulled it straight out - wagering cleared or not, cashing out in time is everything πΈ Anyone else noticed some of the bonus-buy pokies contribute weird here, or is it just my luck?
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
Screenshots and contribution tables, everyone's suddenly a compliance officer π call me old fashioned but i just keep a wee notebook by the kettle and jot down what paid and what didn't. the quiet excluded games always get you though, they've buried those lists deeper every year. these days the trackers do half the work for you, back in my day you found out the hard way when the rollover didn't budge π
I remember the old slots first-hand.
Yeah nah, the notebook bloke's got a point buried under the sarcasm π. I track my rollover in my phone notes, every spin session logged with what counted and what didn't - and twice this month alone I caught a game ticking zero toward the wagering before I'd burnt through half my bonus. Screenshots are fine but a running tally tells you how much grind is left at a glance, that's what actually saves a bankroll.
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
Zero contribution games twice a month? Sounds like you're spending more time auditing than spinning π
I just stick to the pokies that always count, this slot pays, keeps it simple π₯π°
The hit is close, I can feel it.
The auditing's exactly the job though π every session logged is rollover you don't waste at NZ$0.50 a spin on a dead game. Danny, sticking to pokies that always count is fine till you hit the fine print halfway through a bonus and realise half your spins ticked nothing. Would rather check contribution first and grind one slot than re-clear the whole wagering twice π₯
Bankroll discipline wins πΈ

@BankrollGod yeah logging every session saved me too, burnt a bonus once on a game that counted sweet bugger all and never again π
been on my fav slot every evening this month and the rollover's basically melted away π°π₯ wanna clear it before the weekend and go for a fat withdrawal π€
Backing my slot to the last spin.

@MissFortuneFortuna the rollover melting away is exactly what logging is supposed to show you. Well done on it. One thing I'd flag before you go for the withdrawal: check whether the favourite slot you've been grinding every evening contributes 100% towards wagering, because plenty of places quietly weight high-RTP games down to 50% or even 20%. If it does, your effective turnover requirement nearly doubles and the "melted away" feeling can be an illusion. There's a variance nuance here too. A good clearing streak doesn't tell you much about the game's EV, your spin sample is tiny against the long run. Ask support for your remaining wagering figure in writing before the weekend, screenshot it like RngGodEnjoyer says, then withdraw. π
Maybe I'm being dumb but I only found the excluded games list after I'd already burnt a deposit on them π¬ checking contribution before every bonus now, lesson learnt.
New here, soaking it up.
Bruh checking the excluded list is just a bonus killer for me lol, I'd rather spin what counts every evening. Hit big last night on my fav, NZ$340 ngl π₯π€π°
The hit is close, I can feel it.
Found the excluded games list way too late on my first bonus here too, felt like a muppet π
someone told me to screenshot it before each deposit - cheers ReelDivaGold, that helps.
Learning to clear wagering, go easy π
Screenshot idea's solid, more organised than my method which is just checking the balance and crying π€£ NZ$340 is decent though, nicer than my month honestly. My bank left in style π
Came to hit, stayed to tilt πΏ
@ChasingJackpotsOrBust crying at the balance is still tracking mate, just the painful kind π NZ$340 up is a proper month, way better than my last bonus where the excluded games ate me alive. Screenshot that excluded list before your next deposit here, it's saved my backside more than once π€£π°
One slot, one love π°
Same here, on it every evening and the excluded list always gets a screenshot first π
NZ$340 up is proper, keep that rollover melting π₯π°
The hit is close, I can feel it.
@MikeJandal screenshot gang π€£ did the same at Lets Lucky after a bonus almost died on a dodgy excluded pokie. Rollover's melting nicely, NZ$340 up is sweet as π€π₯
Spinning reels dawn to dusk.
π love this thread, checking the balance and crying is basically my tracking method too mate. NZ$340 up at Lets Lucky is a proper month ngl π₯
OtagoLocal makes a good point tho, check what your evening grinder contributes towards the rollover before you hit withdraw, learned that one the hard way once when my favourite only counted half and the wagering just sat there mocking me. Ended up spinning something boring to clear it, ah well π
hit big last night on mine btw, keep that screenshot habit going π°π°
Backing my slot to the last spin.
My evening grinder counts 100% at Lets Lucky and the rollover just melts π₯ NZ$340 up is huge, don't jinx it before the withdraw π€π°
@MikeBet Wellington15 has a point on the 100% thing, I got burned exactly that way once, grinder counted fine in the lobby, then support knocked it down at withdrawal and the rollover bloated right back up. Get it confirmed in writing from chat before you bet big on it, screenshots of promo pages mean nothing when they're checking the math.
That said, NZ$340 up mid-wagering is a good spot to be in. My rule after years of chasing bonuses: keep the bet per spin flat and small while you clear, chasing the rollover with bigger bets is how a nice balance dies. Cashing out in time is everything, the second the wagering's done, withdraw, don't "one more spin" it π€ if it hits while clearing even better, but discipline first πΈ
Cashing out in time is half the battle.

@Christchurch_Bro yeah that lobby vs support gap is where bonuses go to die aye. Got stung similar at Lets Lucky, rollover nearly doubled on me overnight like a labrador after a sausage roll π€£ now I screenshot the chat confirmation too, "in writing" or it didn't happen. One more spin, promise.

@Christchurch_Bro this is exactly why I keep my own sheet per game at Lets Lucky, lobby percentages and promo T&Cs disagree often enough that I never trust the tile. Ask support which document governs the contribution, because at withdrawal the T&Cs win every time and the EV on the rollover shifts badly once a game drops to 50% or zero.
NZ$340 up is nice on paper, but the rollover's the part that decides whether it stays yours. Got a cashout screenshot? MikeBet, "counts 100%" according to whom - the promo page or the support chat? I've seen grinders quietly counted at 50% once the wagering math gets checked at withdrawal. Screenshot the terms before you trust it.
Licence first, deposit after.

@Chargeback_PTSD yeah the excluded pokie trap is real, I've nearly torched a bonus at Lets Lucky the same way before reading the game list properly π now I only touch the slots I know count. Screenshot the rollover balance every session, saved my NZ$340-style cashouts more than once π€
