For all of us that are into gambling streams, it’s been a year absolutely packed with impressive wins, nutty fails, epic celebrations and, of course, loads of drama. As is the case every year, there were doubts about whether or not the big streaming platforms would continue to allow gambling streams or not, but gambling seems to be here to stay and the meta is as popular as ever!
Streamers are also highly influential, which is why we decided to reach out to some of our streamer friends to ask them a few questions about the year that has passed. You’ve seen our 2022 top lists and awards, now it’s time to hear it directly from some of the best and most popular real money streamers out there.

Hideous Slots
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
I have to include Print Studios‘ Out of The Ice in my top 3 – it’s been my first-ever max win! Even before that hit, though, I really liked it, and I think they did a great job with it. Although it’s been less kind to me, I’ve loved Money Train 3 from Relax Gaming, too. For the third one, I’d go for Big Bamboo from Push Gaming, which actually won Slot of The Year voted for by our viewers. No particular order on those three! I’m also really looking forward to Big Time Gaming’s Rasputin Megaways and Nolimit City’s Dead Canary – I loved Fire In The Hole! But they aren’t out yet or too new to gauge, so technically I’m not cheating here haha.
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
I’m not sure I can choose – so many providers have had a great year! Again, in no particular order, I’d have to say Push Gaming, Relax Gaming, and Big Time Gaming. Can I include ELK Studios too? It’s hard to pick three! I think whilst we’re talking about providers, Print Studios are one to look out for – they’ve had a great year with some really interesting concepts, so I’m really excited to see what they do next year.
Favorite online casino of the year?
I really like PartyCasino, and it’s the one I’d always recommend to a viewer who asked. I think they have great bonuses, a huge game selection, and their withdrawals are really fast! Since I’m outside of the UK, though, I get more choices now, so I’ve also really been enjoying RANT – for all the same reasons.
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
Without a doubt, my Danger High Voltage (video) hit. Still so impressed by this – you never really expect a return like this on such an established release, so I was really buzzing when it happened! We also have the max win on Out of the Ice (video) which was nice because even though I’ve been close, I’ve never had one. Aside from that, I’ve had a lot of huge wins (3-4,000x plus) on Mad Cars (video), Millionaire Rush (video), Dead Riders Trail (video) – even Freaky Friday (video)!
What are your plans for 2023?
No real concrete plans, just more of the same! Building the community has always been important to me – the numbers don’t matter as much as having meaningful engagement with regular viewers, people in the chat, on Twitter etc. That said, we passed 20,000 subscribers in 2022 which I know is something Bigwinboard also achieved, so congratulations! It’s a great feeling, so hopefully, in 2023 we’ll see 30,000. Other than that, just getting back to attending conferences and networking – it’s something I missed when everyone was locked down, so looking forward to more of that, starting with Ice in London in February!

What are your plans for 2023?
My plan for 2023 is to return to making content. I have taken a break since July 2022 – I was travelling and buying a house, so I put all funds into that! I just want to come back in 2023, do some streams to keep people entertained and hopefully keep them away from gambling themselves!

Angry Slots
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
1. Outlaw – Phenomenal addition to familiar BTG gameplay. This slot will be played for years. This might well become my favourite Megaways slot ever. 2. Mystery Mission to the Moon – I’ve had more zero bonuses on Mystery Museum than any other slot yet it’s always been one of my favourites. This has all of that but adds more volatility & potential into the mix. Super slot to have on your bonus hunt list. 3. 4 Fantastic Fish – 4thePlayer took the over-stocked ‘fish’ game genre & gave it a fresh makeover. Cracking slot which brought an upcoming slot provider straight into the mainstream. Remains very popular in chat requests.
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
1. Push Gaming – some great additions this year that will be played for years to come on streams. Pushing the limits of volatility now but they do that best. 2. Big Time Gaming – always a steady stream of playable slots. Great base games and a great mix of volatility. Outlaw broke the mould, it’s going to win awards all over. 3. 4ThePlayer – upcoming slot provider. Brought out a super range of slots in 2022. Every game they make is highly graphical & super playable. These guys understand slot players.
Favorite online casino of the year?
#1 for me has to be Mega Casino (SkillOnNet). Since I’ve moved my operations to Ireland, I’ve rediscovered the joy of a VIP scheme, and theirs has allowed me some decent deposit matches to increase content. I’ve had some lovely runs there in 2022.
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
6056x on Beast Mode (video), 6248x on Money Train 3 (video), and 5943x on Primal Megaways (video).
What are your plans for 2023?
I’ve added Twitch to my streaming schedule since they removed the insanity in October. I’m going to try very hard to grow this new audience. Youtube has been consistently growing at a very humbling rate, so I have some great ideas for viewer interaction there in 2023 to maintain this growing audience. It’s a fun community at my stake level. That makes it fun for me as I try to maintain a hefty video schedule.

Letsgiveitaspin (Kim)
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
Big Bamboo, Net Gains, and Freaky Friday. I actually liked Beast Mode more than Net Gains in the beginning, but Net Gains has really grown on me.
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
I think the ones that have done the most improvement is Slotmill, Stakelogic and Yggdrasil. Relax Gaming, AvatarUX, Push Gaming, Play’n GO, and obviously Evolution have been consistently good for quite a few years.
Favorite online casino of the year?
I think Rootz group (Wildz, Wheelz, Caxino, Spinz) have really stepped up this year. Especially for us streamers, Spinz has been great. LeoVegas has been consistently good for many years as well 😀
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
Technically my biggest win of all time happened in December last year, but I still think this one deserves it as my favorite all-time win (King in the middle would’ve been 500k). Poker 367k (video), slots 44k on Raptor (video), table games 150k (video).
What are your plans for 2023?
Our plans for 2023 is to keep on doing more fun narratives for the viewers, hopefully tap in more to land-based streaming and IRL content. Finally, our yearly London meet-up is also coming back in 2023 (party).

The Slot Beasts
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
Since we are 2 different people, we have 2 different opinions when it comes to slots, which is great for variety in our streams. For Joey, the top 3 releases of 2022 are Templar Tumble, Midnight Marauder and Sugar Rush for base game, and The Border, Road Rage and Cazino Zeppelin Reloaded for bonus buys. For Wim, it’s a bit different. His top 3 base game slots are Gigantoonz, Midnight Marauder and Undead Fortune. For buys, it’s The Border, Beast Mode and Sugar Rush.
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
For 2022 we both agreed on our favourite providers which are Relax Gaming, Nolimit City and Play’n GO. There are so many good providers out there, but overall these are for us the providers that made the most entertaining games overall.
Favorite online casino of the year?
We’ve done so many great streams on ComeOn Casino. It’s so exciting sharing a bullet with the community with an add-on from the casino. You share the wins but also the losses. People can join with a small amount but still be entertained for a long time.
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
Our biggest wins of 2022 during base game were money-wise on Tiki Tumble (video) and xbet-wise a 3.6kx on Undead Fortune. When it comes to bonus buys we had a lot of big wins on The Border, but also Tombstone RIP (normal buy) brought us an insane win (video).
What are your plans for 2023?
For 2023, our plan is to work together with more game providers to really connect provider and player a lot more. Now the providers work together with the operator, but in our opinion, the provider should focus on the players more than the operators, and we believe we can really bring the three together to create even more awesome games. When it comes to campaigns, we really go the extra mile to connect the player with a game by making an awesome jingle or animation. And If you want to see how much we enjoy working on those projects, make sure to check out this small teaser we made for Sigma 2022.
Daniel/BWB/Blackcatseven
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
Aside from running Bigwinboard, I am also technically a casino streamer. That’s how I started out, and I still very much see myself as being part of the community. Separating my role as the captain of Bigwinboard, my own personal favorite games of the year are Huntress Wild Vengeance by Print Studios, Beast Mode by Relax Gaming/Casinogrounds, and Outlaw by Big Time Gaming. It’s very hard to just stick to three though. I could easily mention at least 10 more.
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
As a representative of BWB, some providers are far easier/better to work with than others. But putting that aside and focusing just on the games from the perspective of a player, I would have to say Big Time Gaming (such a strong back catalogue of classic games and solid RTP), Relax Gaming (pretty much the same as with BTG), and Thunderkick (I am a sucker for Thunderkick slots, I just am). There are so many great providers these days, though, so it’s very difficult to keep it to just three. I also like what AvatarUX, Print Studios, Pragmatic Play, and Slotmill are doing.
Favorite online casino of the year?
LeoVegas, Rant, and Casino Friday are my go-to casinos.
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
My biggest win this year was a 6,800x win on Dead or Alive 2. Since I don’t stream atm, I don’t record my sessions, unfortunately.
What are your plans for 2023?
My focus is 100% on improving Bigwinboard and continuing to build the community. We had an incredibly strong year, and the site has grown with tens of thousands of unique visitors. We’ve also gained over 9k subs on Youtube in 2022! My hope is also to do more fun stuff with providers and the casino community. The last promo we did with our friends at CasinoGrounds was a lot of fun, and I really think there is potential there to do more fun stuff together.
Letsgiveitaspin (Hampus)
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
Net Gains: This was a late release in 2022, but I really enjoyed the game overall, especially the base game. Big Bamboo: Push Gaming did an excellent job with this one. Gigantoonz: This slot might just rank so high because Reactoonz 2 was such a disappointment.
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
Push Gaming: They have released some great games this year, like Big Bamboo, Bison Battle, and Fat Banker. They also added bonus buys to games like Joker troupe, Mystery Museum and Land of Zenith. Relax Gaming: They have consistently put out high-quality games like Beast Mode, Net Gains, and Money Train 3. Big Time Gaming: They weren’t on my list last year, but they have really impressed me with releases like Outlaw and Rasputin Megaways. They seem to be adapting well to the current era of slots. I also want to give a shoutout to Stakelogic and Slotmill, both of which had a great year.
Favorite online casino of the year?
My favorite online casino of 2022 is Rootz Brands (Spinz, Wheelz, Wildz, Caxino). I really appreciate that they invest in streaming and are looking to take it to the next level.
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
My biggest wins of 2022 include a €150,000 win just a couple of days into the year (video) and a big base game hit a few days ago on Big Bamboo (video).
What are your plans for 2023?
In 2023, we plan to shift our focus from 99.9% online streaming slot and table content to creating more interactive content around IRL events, such as land-based streams and streams of daily life.
Spintwix
Top 3 favorite slot releases of the year?
Big Bamboo – For the mechanics and the potential – just a fun game to play! Superstars – Might not be the best game but deserves a place here mainly for the change of thinking in the right direction by NetEnt! El Patron – Just a fun game with insane potential in the base as well, something different is always fun, especially when it pays..!
Top 3 favorite game providers this year?
Push Gaming – Came out with loads of fun, volatile and plain FUN games. Stakelogic – They keep getting better and better with their games, and 2022 what a huge jump for them in the quality of the games. Evolution Gaming – They are just so creative when it comes to table games!
Favorite online casino of the year?
I have to say Casino Friday for their retention, Comeon for coming out with WeSpin, and Casilando for their overall player experience and keeping the high RTP for a lot of my favourite games.
What’s your biggest win of 2022?
55,200x on Das xBoot .
That will be my 55200x max win on Das xBoot (video). But my two favourite big wins were 4380x on Big Bamboo (video), and, last but not least, 5804x on Gator Gold Giga Blox (video).
What are your plans for 2023?
My main plans for 2023 are to expand our content further than the stream to more fun and cool stuff, and grow the CasinoRing.com community which has reached over 17,000 members who are using the platform! Also, try to keep streaming as much as possible with the current changes in the markets. We have really big things planned for 2023, I can’t just talk about it yet, but I’m super excited about them 🙂
