All bonuses given by Canadian online casinos have wagering requirements for the bonus money in the range of x30 – x60. It means that you will need to make bets in the bonus money multiplied by the wagering requirements.
During the last few years, every online casino excluded slots with a high variance of winning available for wagering with bonus money. By the way, table games are not included, and just a small percentage of the bet is counted (5% – 10%).
The main reason why they are not on the list of the allowed games is that they have a higher RTP (return to player percentage) than most of the slots. Another reason is that a group of professional bonus hunters can easily cheat at the table and live games—for example, player 1 bets on Red and player 2 bets on Black, etc.
Most Canadian online casinos exclude slots with high volatility (variance) and RTP. The reason is that slots with high variance can trigger a payment combination higher than 1000x total bets, and the player will win money. As we all know, casinos operate to win money. One of the best slots that most casinos allow is Blood Suckers by NetEnt.
Next, we will provide a list of slots that are usually excluded because of their high volatility or RTP:
Jackpot 6000 has an RTP of 98.86%, and Mega joker with an RTP of 99%. We can also add Koi Princess, Lucky Angler, The Wish Master, Devil’s Delight, Dead or Alive, Kings of Chicago, Simsalabim, Victorious, Forsaken Kingdom, Castle Builder, Ladies Nite, Stardust, Peek-A-Boo and Secret of the Stones to our list of excluded games.
