What reality checks actually do
A reality check is a timed pop-up that pauses your session and shows elapsed time, win/loss and stake changes. It doesn’t change RNG; it changes when you stop. Pair it with a stake lock (no mid-block raises) and a session cap (hard stop at N minutes or at −X% drawdown), and momentum swings stop dictating your decisions.
Stake locks: the antidote to “just one raise”
- Flat within block: fix stake at 0.8–1.5% of your session bankroll—no exceptions.
- Two stakes total: one for steady play, one lower for missions/turbo windows.
- Unlock only on review: change stakes between blocks after a 2-minute pause, never mid-run.
Session caps that actually help
- Time cap: 12–15 minutes per block with an enforced break.
- Drawdown cap: exit if balance falls −15% from the latest peak—no negotiation.
- Win bank: on a new high, move 15–25% to a “vault” you don’t reuse today.
Quick block template (15 minutes)
- Min 0–2: enable reality check, lock stake, set time + drawdown caps.
- Min 2–12: steady spins on a low/medium-volatility title; avoid turbo unless a timed mission is live.
- Min 12–15: bank peaks, log result (cost per 100 spins, spins/min) and take a real break.
Author’s note: tools don’t increase RTP—they reduce tilt. Timers end runs on time; locks prevent stake creep.
That’s how short sessions stay fun and predictable. 18+.
Common mistakes (and fixes)
- Disabling prompts: keep the reality check on; shorten the interval if you “snooze” it.
- Turbo by default: use turbo only during event windows; it raises spend rate, not odds.
- Mixing promos: one promotion per block—stacking rules often backfires.
