No, not the lads but rather Chipmunkz Slots?
I used to watch regularly but not live, rather daily uploads. I eventually stopped watching this year and I am now only subscribed to browse and read the comments on the vids. Here is why I stopped and what I saw over a period of time.
I personally felt that I was watching a decline as Chip rarely hit big wins in comparison with other streamers. I'd be a bit naffed off if I streamed everyday but wasn't getting the frequency of big wins that Nick, Steve, the lads here and others do. I believe he went seeking this too much which led to a lot of offline sessions and a sudden large jump in stakes including £40 spins. It was masked as the occasional high stake stream or video as a one off for variety but it became more frequent. Eventually he did hit big with 40k on Captain Venture but it seems that wasn't enough.
I've kept tabs as I've seen his loyal viewers begin to call him out on the high stakes. He recently put a video of him blowing 2k in 8 minutes on £40 stakes and today he's released a video of 'forgotten' high stakes 10k wins. He's getting slaughtered in the comments.
Chip was always relatable for many due to his stakes and his consistent content but i see a demon in him that has control which may be taking away his honest reputation.
It's up to streamers what they do and stake. Some may argue that due to affiliation its not always their money. I don't mean fake money but I don't care about that aspect. It's a business and we wouldn't get videos if streamers didn't run it like that. If you watch The Bandit he's crazy and his sessions can go wild but that's what is expected of him.
This is my view and I'd never call or attack a streamer. It just seems a shame. Anyone else who watches or did watch think the same?
Another thing that I noticed is the lack of excitement for wins that most would consider to be substantial.
Don't get me wrong I enjoy watching Chip but it just seems like lately every video is “High Stakes” and after a while that gets boring. When does it stop becoming high stakes and just starts becoming the norm.
What ever happened to low stakes Tuesday?
I got a lot of time for chip all jokes and banter aside, my opinion on this is he's felt the need to step up the content/stakes to compete with a highly saturated market.
whether this is true or not, he's more than likely going to raise the stakes as his channel grows either way.
As for the max bet spins videos, yeah that's purely for views/subs/relevance and if he hits a big win, bonus! (for him)
anyway no hate from me, but i understand the opinions of why people no longer watch, that being said i like seeing big stakes occasionally.
I just wish he was more selective with the casinos he promote, cant stand aspire brands with there 90% games contributing 50% towards wagering, feels wrong for the players.
Absolutely no hate for Chip I think he’s a great guy and really interactive with his audience and you can’t deny his commitment to his channel.
Big risk = Big Reward (sometimes)
Used to live his videos....Then opened my eyes ever since lockdown the stakes have been stupid.
Any one who questions this is shot down and they way he promotes is very underhand.
I'll give it craig and jimbo they litrally tell you about signing up through the links. However chips line is if you wanna check out where we playing today the REVIEWS are down below. Little bit underhand if you ask me.
He has made a profit for the last god knows how many months in a row. How many of us regular punters make a profit month on month on month. The offline huge wins stink to me aswell.
The content is generally a good quality however as stated by a previous poster I just watch jord now
gotta say I agree with you all on this one.
I loved watching the slot battles and all the YouTube content but since the stakes went mental I unsubscribed.
I get raising the stakes and I think we all do it sometimes (not to that extent) but it's setting a really bad example for people doing it too much. I raise when I win big and will still have a profit but what he does has to have made some people believe it's alright to do it all the time and put them in a hole.
they do get a shit load of hate for it so got feel for them
