Hultman has never run from the affiliate label the way some streamers do — he was open about the LeoVegas equity deal from day one — but the question Canadian viewers should ask is not whether he is paid (he obviously is). It is whether the numbers on screen behave the same way for somebody who is not signed to the operator. The rest of this article walks through what we can verify, what we can only suspect, and where the receipts run out.
Inside Kim Hultman's Bankroll: A Decade Built on CasinoGrounds and LeoVegas
Public net-worth estimates for LetsGiveItASpin sit in the USD 5–8 million range as of 2026 — substantially less than Roshtein's headline number, but built on cleaner, more provable revenue lines. There are three of them, and only one of them comes from spinning slots.
The first is the 2017 CasinoGrounds transaction. Hultman co-founded CasinoGrounds with Erik and Mikael Joelsson — the brothers who would later build the Casino Daddy channel — as a Reddit-style hub for casino streamers and their viewers. In November 2017, LeoVegas Group announced it had acquired a 51% controlling stake in CasinoGrounds for €3 million, a number disclosed in LeoVegas's own quarterly report. The founders kept the remaining 49%. That single deal is the structural reason every other revenue stream in Hultman's career is built on top of LeoVegas.
The second is affiliate revenue. CasinoGrounds runs a slot database, a bonus-hunt tracker and a casino-review section. Every casino review page on that site — and every "Top RTP" list — funnels traffic into operator sign-ups through tracked affiliate links. Industry CPA rates for high-roller slot players sit between USD 250 and USD 600 per first-deposit, with revenue-share deals stacking on top. A platform that sends LeoVegas a few hundred deposits a month at those rates pays the rent.
The third is the streaming sponsorship itself: a primary-sponsor contract that pays per-hour live and bonus payments tied to viewer counts. Hultman has never disclosed the amount, but Stake and Rainbet contracts for streamers of similar size have leaked at USD 50,000–USD 150,000 per month. LeoVegas almost certainly pays less because LeoVegas is a regulated MGA-licensed brand with thinner margins than the crypto sportsbooks; ballpark estimates from former CasinoGrounds staff put it at the lower end of that range.
Add the three lines together over ten years, subtract Malta's tax bill, and the public estimate of USD 5–8 million is roughly where the math lands. It is also why "does he really gamble with his own money?" is the wrong question. He probably does. He just does not need the slots to break even.
The Casinos in LetsGiveItASpin's Rotation
Hultman is not a casino-hopper. He has spent the bulk of his ten-year career on one operator and has been refreshingly open about why: LeoVegas is the brand whose equity buyout funded CasinoGrounds, and his contract requires him to stream there. The "rotation" is therefore short — his sponsor and a single secondary spot his Discord regulars cite when comparing payout times.
LeoVegas is the only casino that has appeared in basically every Hultman stream since 2017. It is MGA-licensed (MGA/B2C/213/2011), Ontario-licensed via iGaming Ontario since the 2022 launch window, and carries the Relax Gaming, Push Gaming and NoLimit City catalogues he hunts on. Withdrawal speed for verified accounts at LeoVegas is the public Trustpilot benchmark every viewer measures against — typically 0–24 hours for cards, faster for trusted-payment Trustly transactions.
RocketPlay is the secondary spot his Discord regulars routinely post screenshots from when they want side-by-side bonus-buy comparisons against the LeoVegas shelf. It carries the same Relax Gaming and Push Gaming libraries and runs a Curaçao licence (8048/JAZ), which means faster crypto withdrawals but weaker player-protection rules than the MGA-regulated environment Hultman streams on. Treat it as the "what his viewers actually click" alternative, not as something he personally endorses on camera.
Inside LetsGiveItASpin's LeoVegas Contract
The LeoVegas relationship is the most consequential commercial arrangement in Hultman's career, and it has three overlapping layers: equity, affiliate, and on-stream sponsorship.
The equity layer is the 2017 acquisition. LeoVegas Group bought a controlling 51% interest in CasinoGrounds for €3 million in November 2017, a transaction disclosed in the operator's own Q4 2017 investor materials. From that day forward, every "objective" review or RTP list published on CasinoGrounds was technically published by a company majority-owned by LeoVegas. Hultman has consistently said the editorial line stayed independent. The structure does not require him to be lying for that statement to be misleading — equity ownership shapes what gets covered without anyone needing to issue an order.
The affiliate layer is older than the equity. CasinoGrounds had operator deals before LeoVegas wrote the cheque, and after the buyout those deals continued. Visit the CasinoGrounds review section today and the casinos at the top of the rankings — CasinoDays, ComeOn, PlayOJO and a handful of others — overlap with the operators that show up on most affiliate networks' best-paying lists. None of that is illegal; it is just not what an editorial recommendation looks like.
The on-stream sponsorship is the part viewers see: Hultman plays at LeoVegas, the LeoVegas logo appears on stream, and viewers click an affiliate link in chat to deposit. This is the layer where Canadian viewers should pay attention. LeoVegas operates legally in Ontario through iGaming Ontario, but the moment a player from any other province clicks Hultman's link, they are gambling on the .com brand, which is not licensed for Canada outside Ontario. The site's 2022 Ontario launch coverage explains the split — the .ca domain serves AGCO-regulated traffic only, the .com brand serves the rest of the world, and the deposit you make is governed by whichever flag the cashier loaded when you signed up.
The contract itself has never leaked, which is unusual in a series where Stake and Rainbet deals tend to surface within a couple of years. Two readings of that fit the public record: either LeoVegas writes tighter NDAs than the crypto sportsbooks (plausible — they are an MGA-licensed listed company), or the headline number is small enough that nobody bothered. Both readings still leave Hultman as the highest-leverage paid promoter in the operator's affiliate stack, because the platform he co-founded is the funnel, not just the megaphone.
LeoVegas itself has not been a quiet partner. The site's 2022 in-house gaming-studio launch raised a structural conflict — an operator producing the games it serves to its own customers — and the EGBA membership push has been read by some industry observers as PR cover rather than substantive regulatory commitment. Hultman is sponsored by an operator with real licences and real complaints. Both are true.
Is Kim Hultman's Bankroll Real? What the Receipts Show
The "is it fake money?" question has followed Hultman since 2018, and the honest answer is that the evidence is thinner than it looks for either side. Here is what is on the public record, in order.
The most-cited incident is the 2019 "Casino Robot" affair. Casino Robot was a smaller streamer caught running a demo-mode session at LeoVegas while presenting it as real-money play; the screenshots and the LeoVegas post-incident statement are the documented part. Hultman was not implicated, but the same operator was — and the spillover scepticism toward every LeoVegas-sponsored streamer has never fully receded. Hultman's response at the time was a written statement that he plays his own deposits; LeoVegas issued a parallel statement confirming it. Neither statement included an independently audited transaction log.
The second strand is the maths of his bet sizing. Hultman has streamed €5–€100 base bets for years and occasionally jumps to €200–€500 for bonus-buy spins on Money Train and Wanted Dead or a Wild. At those stakes, on slots with 96.10–96.40% RTP and high volatility, an honest player with a USD 100,000 stream bankroll should bust within a session a meaningful fraction of the time. The published clips show him losing — there are full videos of negative bonus hunts on his YouTube — but the ratio of "wins compiled" to "full sessions broadcast" is heavily skewed toward the wins. That is true of every casino streamer; it is just particularly worth flagging when the operator paying for the stream is also the one verifying the deposits.
The third strand is the comparative one. Streamers like Roshtein and AyeZee have specific named accusers and dated incidents — leaked chats, on-stream errors, public feuds. Hultman has none of those. His record is suspiciously clean for somebody who has streamed slots for ten years. Either he is genuinely careful or he runs a tighter ship; both readings are consistent with the receipts we have.
Net result: there is no public, dated, named-source proof that LetsGiveItASpin has ever played with house money. There is also no independent on-chain wallet to verify deposits the way you can with crypto-sponsored streamers. The honest label is paid promoter, not fake-money streamer — and the difference matters, because the harm done by a paid promoter who genuinely deposits is different from the harm done by somebody spinning a demo balance for show.
From Bonus Hunts to Big Bets: LetsGiveItASpin's Slot Catalogue
Hultman's slot rotation is heavily weighted toward three studios: Relax Gaming, Push Gaming and Hacksaw Gaming. The Money Train series is the spine of his catalogue — the original Money Train, then Money Train 2, Money Train 3, and the 2024 record-breaker Money Train 4. Bonus-buy mechanics on these games are the whole point of his trademark format, and the studio's 96.10% RTP on Money Train 4 lines up with what he advertises on stream.
From Push Gaming the staples are Bison Battle and Razor Shark — both high-volatility, both with the wild-multiplier mechanics that produce the screenshots Hultman uses for thumbnails. Hacksaw shows up via Wanted Dead or a Wild, Le Bandit and Le Cowboy; the cowboy variant produced one of the largest single-spin wins in casino-streaming history when it landed for Roshtein, but Hultman's documented Hacksaw clips are smaller and more numerous.
The legacy section of his rotation is a pair of NetEnt classics — Dead or Alive 2 and the original Dead or Alive — which he still loads up for nostalgia hunts, and Pragmatic's Sweet Bonanza and Sugar Rush for low-volatility bonus-buy padding between high-stake sessions. He occasionally revisits the original Book of Power from Relax Gaming — the slot that produced his viral x4,142 multiplier on a €70 bet — but it is not part of the regular rotation any more.
The format is the bigger story. The bonus-hunt format Hultman helped popularise — collect a basket of triggered free-spin rounds, then open them all in one session at the end — is the reason the bonus-buy category dominates his stream history. It is also the reason his viewers are accustomed to seeing five-figure swings on a single click, which calibrates expectations in a way casual players almost never recover from.
The Hits That Defined LetsGiveItASpin: Big Wins, Big Doubts
Money Train 4 (Relax Gaming) — x71,859 multiplier (2024)
Hultman's largest documented multiplier on stream and the win he still uses as his pinned highlight. The Persistent Collector/Payer symbol triggered early in the bonus, then re-collected and re-distributed multipliers across the field for several spins. On a €100 base bet the run produces a payout in the seven-figure euro range. Clip via the LetsGiveItASpin YouTube channel — full footage below.
Bison Battle (Push Gaming) — x36,261 multiplier / €72,000 (2023)
A single bonus spin landed two bison wilds simultaneously — the mechanic that stacks the wild-symbol multiplier across an active line — alongside eight wild symbols on a single payline. The full bonus produced roughly €72,000 in cash on a base bet in the €25–€50 range. The clip is one of the more believable big wins on Push Gaming because the mechanic is well-understood and the screen state lines up with the math.
Book of Power (Relax Gaming) — x4,142 multiplier on a €70 bet
The viral early-career hit. Three red Power books landed during base play, which activates the maximum boost in Book of Power — wild symbols filling the central reels every spin, and eventually filling the entire grid. The total payout cleared the published "world's biggest" headline number for the slot at the time the clip went up.
2020 charity stream — €47,725 raised over 24 hours
The non-slot highlight that softens the rest of the record. Hultman ran a 24-hour charity broadcast in 2020 and raised €47,725 for the named beneficiary listed on his Twitch overlay at the time. It is real money, real cause, and worth flagging because it is the most genuine on-camera moment in his ten-year run. It does not unwind the affiliate plumbing, but it is a fact, and facts go in the record.
Final Read on LetsGiveItASpin: What It All Adds Up To
Hultman is the cleanest of the original casino-streamer cohort, which is not the same as being clean. He probably plays his own money. He has never been caught on a demo balance the way Casino Robot was at the same operator. He runs a charity stream once in a while. He answers his Discord. By the standards of the industry he came up in, that is genuinely above average.
What he is not is a neutral source. CasinoGrounds was 51% owned by his sponsor for years; the "best casinos" lists on that site rank the operators that pay the highest CPA; his bonus-hunt format has trained a generation of viewers to think a €100 spin is normal. None of those are accidents. They are the shape of a paid promoter operating cleanly inside the rules of his industry, which is the highest compliment you can give a casino streamer and still be honest about what you are watching.
Canadian viewers in Ontario can play at LeoVegas legally through iGaming Ontario. Outside Ontario, you cannot — provincial lottery corporations are the only legal route until your province launches its own regulated framework (Alberta's iGaming Act takes effect July 13, 2026; the rest are further out). Treat his streams as entertainment with sponsor disclosure attached. If you want a starting point that is not promotional, the site's trusted casino list and the broader popular slots library are the safer reference points, and the blacklisted operators page tells you which CasinoGrounds-promoted brands have since failed independent review — including Casumo, an operator long associated with the Swedish streaming circuit, and several names featured in Hultman's earlier rotation. The Swedish-rooted alternative his old contemporaries also stream on is Videoslots, which carries a Swedish Spelinspektionen licence rather than just MGA.
Verdict
Paid promoter. Hultman almost certainly plays his own deposits — there is no dated, named-source incident proving otherwise — but every spin is a marketing tool for an operator that owns 51% of his platform and pays his sponsorship. He gets bonuses, terms and visibility no rank-and-file player will ever see, and the publication he co-founded ranks operators by what they pay him, not by what they pay you. Watch for the entertainment if that is what you want; just remember you are not playing the same game he is, and matching his bet size on your own bankroll is exactly how the affiliate funnel is designed to work.

FAQ about LetsGiveItASpin
His real name is Kim Hultman. He was born in Smålandsstenar, a small town in southern Sweden, and now lives in Malta — the same relocation pattern most Swedish casino streamers follow for licensing and tax reasons.
Public estimates put Kim Hultman in the USD 5–8 million range as of 2026. The number is built on three lines: the 2017 LeoVegas equity buyout of his platform CasinoGrounds (€3 million for a 51% stake), ten years of affiliate revenue from CasinoGrounds review and bonus-hunt traffic, and an ongoing primary-sponsor contract with LeoVegas.
Most likely yes. There is no public, dated, named-source proof he has ever played a demo balance — unlike some of his contemporaries, his record is clean of leaked chats or on-stream errors. He still benefits from sponsor bonuses and account terms regular players never see, which is why this article labels him a paid promoter rather than a fake-money streamer.
LeoVegas has been his primary partner since 2017, when LeoVegas Group bought a 51% controlling interest in CasinoGrounds for €3 million. He plays almost exclusively on LeoVegas during sponsored streams and his Discord regulars also reference RocketPlay for side-by-side bonus-buy comparisons.
No platform ban on record. He moved his focus from Twitch to a multi-platform setup (Twitch live, YouTube highlights) when Twitch tightened its slot-streaming rules in 2021–2022, but he was never personally suspended or terminated.
Only if they are physically in Ontario. LeoVegas is licensed by iGaming Ontario through the AGCO framework and runs a separate .ca domain for Ontario traffic. Players in any other Canadian province cannot legally access the .com brand his streams advertise — provincial lottery corporations are the only legal route until a province launches its own framework. Alberta's iGaming Act takes effect on July 13, 2026; the rest are further out.
A x71,859 multiplier on Money Train 4 (Relax Gaming) in 2024, played on a €100 base bet. The bonus was triggered by an early Persistent Collector/Payer symbol that re-distributed multipliers across the field for several spins. Other headline wins include a x36,261 multiplier on Bison Battle (Push Gaming) for around €72,000 cash, and a x4,142 multiplier on Book of Power for the early-career viral clip.
Too bad people will still subscribe to guys like him. People always believe in miracles, even when they get slapped in the face.
"Kim uses his own money." Hahaha, yeah right!
Oh, who would have thought!
If I were younger, I’d get into these streams too and start scamming people. No effort, just likes and subscriptions.
Everyone already knows, don’t they?
