The mysterious “R.R.H.” (we know his real name so that spoils the mystery a bit) is a champion of iGaming and doesn’t understand why people spend hours travelling to a casino. He has spent years playing and analyzing the myriad of online casino games to discover the ones with the best RTP.
While the house has a distinct edge in its offerings, R.R.H. is adamant that players need to gain a better understanding of how iGaming titles work. For example, he warns players to stay away from high volatility slots if they don’t want long spells without winning. In his opinion, players need to have the right psychology at the outset if they want to truly enjoy themselves.
