Casino La Vida

Well, today on my list of casinos I stumbled upon this casino: Casino La Vida. I never heard of it but thought it was worth a shot. Plus, it has a grade of 7.6 on AskGamblers.com, so it can not be that bad.

The casino’s games are powered by Microgaming, which is my personal favourite.
The casino’s website looks pretty standard, and maybe a bit disappointing. However, I like the fact that it is very well structured and you can find any information you may need on their website. The casino can be played through only by downloading the casino’s software, but this is the best version anyway, since i always found myself having issues with the online versions of the casinos.

The casino has 5 deposit bonuses- the one for the first deposit matches 100% up to 100 and 50 spins on one slot. On the 2nd deposit you get 25% up to 200$ plus 50 spins on other slots. On the 3rd deposit you get 50% bonus up to 200$. The last deposit bonus matches 25% up to 125$. For the highrollers: if you deposit a minimum of 50 $ for each of the 4 deposits, you get 50 free spins.
I decided to deposit 30 euros and I really hoped i could win. Probably everyone says it, but i really felt confident.

I played my usual Microgaming slots, Avalon, Isis etc,etc at one moment, I had about 70 euros, but decided to continue playing and I lost all my money.

My conclusion is that the casino deserves a shot- the promotions are nice, Microgaming is nice.
My ratings are as follows:
Software: 9/10 Microgaming
Bonuses 8/10
Support: i do not know
Cashouts: Unfortunately I do not know

I have an account there and made few deposits there in past. I did however close my Casino Rewards group casinos cause of lack of winning. I did keep a few Microgaming casinos accounts open and active, however my la vida account is not active at all I may have used it few times in over a year or two ago.

Well from my experience there I think La vida might have lost me on #1 their casino match bonuses are some what very small, as to where other Microgaming online casinos have offers every week for depositing players example ( 7sultans and europalace 30% to 100% ranging matches) these type of on going matches are very good for loyal players as well as they have fun promos to add. Unlike la vida their offers are small like 10% match bonuses and I think after the first match they went to cheap for me at offers like 10% match, to 15% match, and the highest was 20% match bonus lmfao excuse me but that's really not my type of offers.

If you La vida would like to make and keep customers playing happily ever after you really need to open up your arms.
Welcoming these depositing players with so big loving match bonuses, I myself would love to come back and stay if only your match bonuses were higher like at least 60% to 100% and La vida was to make it even higher matches for their depositing players good lord I would never leave their casino for a 150% match bonus.

So that's my wonderful short experience with casino La vida. I do agree they give small matches to their depositing players, its hardly a match at all.
So far this casino i would rate it at a 4 out of ten, simply because they don't offer enough to play enough at their casino. the more a casino offers their players more the players can play and stand a good chance of making a nice winning!

Good luck to you folks :-)

Casino La vida its one of hundreds Microgaming casinos. And I decided to give it a shot, with 50$ deposit and 100% match bonus. But this time I just want something new, something irregular, some new feelings, and decide try to discover any new good slots for my usual list.

I start with centre court 1$ bets, got some luck there, and my balance upped to 150$. After it I decide to try untamed wolf pack, because in can pay huge in free spins, or even in normal spins, but you should get very lucky to see there really nice win. Anything big not happened, and I finish with just 80$ left, hate untamed right now, never see anything good on this series of slots. After it I decided to try Santa Wild Ride, it had 3 differents feature to trigger, also 243 line, and it gives you nice opportunity to hit something. I bet 1$, hit free spins, there got 2 reels of wild, and boost my balance to 130$.

After it I try Tomb Raider slot, but I think it totally *@$*, never see win more than 10x in it, so left with 100$ and still happy. After it I join beach babes or something link it, and I understand that its very similar to my favorite supe it up. I try spin it in 1$ bets, play till my balance become zero, because I even don't hit free spins. Yeah, that was a very bad playtime and session, but I try few new slots, some I like, some not, and it always good to test something new, it give you opportunity to choose from many slots. Probably I already played many slots from MG, and I had my list of my slots on this soft.

Ok, my marks for Casino La vida
Software: 9/10 Microgaming always get this high mark.
Bonus: 100% bonus match, + few others promos, but nothing i really like 7/10
Support: Just had few questions, everything fine 8/10
Cashouts: Didn't test, shame.
Total: 7.5/10 nice looking Microgaming casino, but there a lot of better!

Casino La Vida, another casino under the Microgaming software. To tell you the truth it is actually pretty boring! The Look and feel of this casino plus the work they have to did is not what I had in mind. Casino La Vida has a sister site involved called Red Flush. In this review my story is nothing but an unhappy one.

When I joined in 2010 I realised Casino La Vida was offering a $10 no deposit bonus to new players who joined. The terms and conditions state every new player must register their credit card in order to be eligible so I registered my card. About half an hour to nearly a full hour I received my $10 no deposit bonus to try them out. Since $10 was small for me to make big bets I decided to go on Video Pokers for $2.50 a Bet under a game called Bonus Poker 25 Hands. I managed to climb over my $10 bonus to $22.75 using their Double up feature. For you players who don't know what Bonus Poker 25 hands are it is a Video Poker within the Microgaming software that deals 5 cards initially to the player where as the player decides what to hold. It then deals 25 more hands (including your first hand) along with your "Held" cards to create winning poker combinations.

After every win you are asked to either Double your wins to a maximum or 4 times which is really great for making big wins or to collect them. Just when I reached $22.75 I changed my game to a Video Slot called Avalon. It's a 20 payline 10 coin video slot that is based on the story of King Arthur. A story of bravery and courage! The casino seems to have used almost everything in the story towards this video slot, from Avalon Castle Wilds to the Lady of the Lake Scatters. All I liked about this video slot is how it looks and the feature is holds. Just when my balance would rise higher it goes to a downward spiral! It was a nightmare come true when my quest to gain riches ended on Avalon. Yes you guessed it my balance has now became 0 for playing 40 minutes on Avalon! Once my balance reached 0 I made a minimum of $20 to play some more. Same happened to me but on another slot.

I guess when your on an unlucky streak every single game you go to turns horrible in every way possible. I'm not too sure if anyone can withdraw from this casino because I did not make it that far.

Joined a few weeks ago had received no cash back at all since joining deposited 200 last week so i got on to them about cash back. I was told because I got bonuses i get no cash back. I said if I deposited 500 to be told u might or might not get cash back so be very aware when u are claiming the promotion for cash back if u claim any other bonus u will not get it a bit of a joke really and to add I have never withdrawn from this site and have over 600 deposed since joining.

This is another casino that is powered by Micro Gaming and is the sister site of the dreaded 'Red Flush Casino'. When I deposited at Red Flush I promised myself that I would not even bother trying this casino as I assumed the service would be the same people so just as bad. I am soooo weak...I received an email a few days for a free £10 no deposit required if I downloaded their software and registered an account with them. I thought no way and I don’t know how this happened but my hand just kept clicking away at the mouse and before I knew it there I was chatting away to live help! Honestly don’t know how it happened! (Just Joking) Just for those of you who prefer playing via flash, then this casino also offer that version too.

Anyway I wanted to query whether or not I had to register my credited card to get the free £10, I was pleasantly surprised to see the woman I was talking to was really helpful and friendly. You don’t have to register a card and I was told the free money would be credited to my account within 12 hours as it is an automated process. She updated me on a few promotions they had running and wished me luck in the games!! Clearly an improvement from Red Flush. I received a registration an email shortly after and the free £10 was in my account the following day it didn’t state the wagering requirements so I checked on their site and it is the standard 30 times and there is a maximum cash out of £250, which isn’t bad is it. A minimum deposit of £20 is needed first if you do want to withdraw.

To be honest, and this isn’t a dig to La Vida personally its to the whole Micro Gaming software throughout the board but lately their games are just rubbish, they are just not paying out like they used to. I never expect to win loads as that the nature of gambling but little wins here and there is what keeps you going, I am just getting nothing back from micro gaming slots these days though. I am not going to complain too much because it is free money at the end of the day, and I did enjoy my experience here, a hundred times more than at their sister site and I am considering making a deposit here. Live help offered me 150% deposit match and 50 free spins on Riviera Riches if I done it there and then otherwise its the standard 100% deposit match but you still get the free spins, I declined the offered but will come back in a few weeks and deposit but only when I know that the payouts at Micro Gaming has picked back up.

This casino is definitely an improvement from their sister casino, I am actually shocked that these two casinos are linked as they seem like so many worlds apart.

In early 2010 I signed up at Casino LaVida, which had not been in operation for long. I soon came to discover that it was a sister site to Red Flush, a place I had previously deposited and played at, though not withdrawn from. This time around, I had an opportunity to try out the new Microgaming site with a free chip being offered through a small online forum. Claiming it required a unique bonus code that I received within a day or two of completing the signup procedure as instructed and being successfully tracked to the affiliate.

Redeeming it within the download casino proved to be no problem and I was ready to play in short order. To be honest, I don’t recall much from this particular no deposit encounter… I vaguely remember playing some table games (likely blackjack) and perhaps some slots, all at small bets, for a decent length of time -- maybe an hour or two -- before busting out. I’m also fairly certain (but not absolutely so) that I eventually deposited something like $50 to take advantage of a limited time special welcome bonus that included a bunch of free spins on a particular slot game.

In any case, I am definitely sure this is one casino I have never withdrawn from so contrary to its slogan, I am yet to experience ‘the good life’ as far as LaVida is concerned. Nevertheless, the site still sends me many bonus offers and promotion announcements, and to its credit they are both frequent and various. From deposit bonuses with differing match percentages or loyalty point awards to wagering contests and prize draws, there is plenty to choose from… Except, oddly enough given what prompted me to sign up in the first place, I am yet to get additional free chips or spins that don’t require a purchase.

Casino La Vida is the smaller sister of Red Flush casino and therefore those two have many common things between each other. It was powered by Microgaming, so that was a reason, enough to catch my attention and to be honest, at that time I was not so rigorous, regarding all those terms and conditions a casino requires you to accept, before becoming a real player. So, the curiosity of tasting the next Microgaming casino was more than enough to make me become a customer of casino La Vida in no time! I used their welcome offer – 100% match up to 100, plus 50 free spins on the brand new MG slot at that time, called Riviera Riches and even got 500 loyalty points in addition.

Well, the free spins gave me just nothing – some 5 credits or even less, the loyalty points were able to redeem in increments of at least 1000, so the only useful here was the welcome bonus of 100 credits! And here began the show time! Can you imagine what would be if your favourite slot just do, whatever you wish him to do?! Now imagine that lasts for 5-6 hours, in various bets all the way from 0.20 up to 2.00 per spin?! Now call that slot Avalon and imagine how rewarding this slot can actually be during its free spin feature?! Are you ready? :) That was exactly what happened to me in casino La Vida right from the start! My beloved Avalon showed me what a dream slot can be and at the end of my first play session at the casino I have almost cleared the wagering requirements, but what was much more important – my balance was above 4000 credits!!! 4000 credits, playing only one slot for 5 hours without any stops! Can you believe that?! This was the first and the last time I had such a long and rewarding winning streak on any slot in any casino, and that’s the reason the name of casino La Vida always make me feel great!

My luck was just amazing, but some other important details in this casino were not, unfortunately! Like the weird term, that you are not able to cash out more than 2500 credits per week, if the combined value of all your deposits so far was less than that amount. And since I managed to clear my wagering requirements with only one deposit (my initial) and with ending balance of 4400, it was quite of unpleasant surprise for me! Anyway, I requested a withdrawal of 2500…lost the remaining 1900 for about 2 hours (thinking that the incredible luck will follow me on the higher bets :(), than on the second day my withdrawal was still pending and I made a reversal of 500… Guess how much I withdrew from casino La Vida actually?! Hmm, better not to ask, I’m still ashamed from my own stupidity! :)

So, to summarize I will use some simple rating scores:
Support: 5/10
Software: 9/10
Security: 5/10
Finance: 5/10
Bonuses: 5/10
Terms& Conditions: 5/10

Overall: Good online casino!

Well that is it from me now:). Thanks to AskGamblers.com for giving me the opportunity to share my story! And always remember: “You can not break the casino bank, but it is worth trying!
