What MG slot's hot - and what's not!

[dominique]

Ok, I had a slots evening last night.

It was a very good day.

I don't count spins but usually set a $25 limit tops before I need to have hit. Sometimes I move on a lot earlier. I usually start betting around $1 and then bet around $2.

Thunderstruck hit a lot of small things, then I hit the free spins twice, collected around $100 and moved on when I hit nothing for some 10 spins.

Then I went through a number of the 5 line reels, like Belissimo. They were all hitting but low that day, I would leave $25 and walk with$50, so I took $25 from almost every one of those.

Then I moved to Big Kahuna, hit the chattering masks twice and the fruity scarifices once within a very short time. One mask feature was for the birds, I picked up another 50 on the other. The fruit thing never does much of anything for me.

Now I went to Whatonearth and I hit 5 of the "whatonearth" symbols on a payline. It payed $1,877. I moved on and played a bit here and a bit there, I withdrew $1,500. Then I played Tomb Raider, hit the free spins twice and picked up another $200. Finally I decided to go back to whatonearth and I hit the feature 3 times - the first two were nothing much but the third time I went to Cairo and picked up the mummy for a total of $900.

I withdrew another $1000. I still have money there to play.

It was the best hitting evening I had in a long time - and most everything I touched was hitting.

First chance I've had to play for 3 days and then only a short session:-

Frozen: What on Earth - 250 spins with no feature. (Wagered $54, lost $28 = -52%)

Warm: Spring Break. 122 spins to get feature, then hit twice more in next 25 spins! ($74/+$9 = +12%)
Very warm: Ladies Nite - 144 spins, 2 features. ($52/+$13 = +25%)

Hot!: Tomb Raider - 200 spins, 7 features! ($150/+$63 = +41%)

I love Laura Croft!

Well, I found that lotsaloot was HOT for me Friday, Hit 1250.00 3 wilds..going diagonally....I about fainted...It's been long cold streak on MG slots. I had first done a dep....cause they emailed me offering me 100% bonus...but it was one of those places with the bonus account, played my 25 off...then went and played the bonus 25
well......first big hit ever ON GG...winning wizards, 2nd spin, the GG came out with the cards, and i got free spins with x5..i think....hit 5 books!!! 200$$
and i wondered how the heck I was going to get it out of bonus account...lol
Well..kept playing..finally got to move 188 to my real account....
played LotsaLoot....and whammm 1250....

Today, I did a dep of 50, and played almost all day, balance kept going up and down...seemed all the old slots were paying off, mermaid millions, winning wizard GG hit 5 scatters for me..Finally I cashed out 100, had about 75 left...hit some here and there...
When I had my pot built up...I thought..what the heck..and played Treasure nile...figured I would just play a few..since it's 4.50 a spin..a little rich for my blood. Anyway....I hit 5 snake symbols with wilds, 2 ways...for a little over 500....got 3 scatters with it too....
Well...cashed out 400, total of 500 now...and played on the rest....Hit 5 lizards on Big Kahuna, cashed out nother 100....HIT 150 a couple of times on the Non-GG totem treasure, hit 120 free spins on munckin...and a couple of others..can't remember.

Go gaputernut! That's awesome!

Go gaputernut! That's awesome!

Agreed - totally BRILLIANT!!

I'm only going to talk about one slot today, my favorite!

Absolutely ON FIRE! Tomb Raider! 231 spins, 9 features (1/26), $248/+$100 = +40%

Started at 5c/line, and got 6 features in first 130 spins. Feeling the heat, I upped it to 10c/line and got 3 more features before Laura went cold on me.

The screenshot was the result of the last feature: 3 Laura's + 3 more + 3 Idols + 3 more Laura's!

If I had stopped there I would have been $145 up without even hitting ANY big wins. But I carried on & it died (44 spins of zip), so I quit when my profit dropped to $100.

I have noticed what appear to be highs and lows in the slots. I once ran Thunderstruck for well over 700 spins without a single feature, over a number of visits during a wager tournament. In the end it gave a normal win of 5 hammers with wild Thor, which brought the overall return to what would be expected. But the point is that a free spins slot should give free spins, as this is why they are played. Strangely, I was getting a pair of Rams frequently, but the third just would not fall, which makes be wonder if the RNG selects beforehand whether free spins will be given before the spin rather than the reels independently spinning and the Rams turning up or not. I note that "wizardofodds" states that Video slots do not use "weighted reels", so the Rams should appear in view on each reel with a probability depending on the number of rams on that reel. The symbol band for a video slot can be large, and may contain only one ram. The frequency of seeing 2 rams, but not three suggests that some reels have more rams than others, and one or two reels probably only have one, as 4 rams is rare, and I have never seen all 5, but I have had 5 "scatters" frequently on the "5 Reel Drive" slot, which are worth less.
If the win of 5 rams came up in free spins, the feature return could exceed the JP from normal mode. I frequently see casinos posting winners of "free spin jackpots", so this is something that must happen.

I have also played Thunderstruck in "Hot" mode, where I was frequently hitting the free spins every 50 to 100 spins for some period.
I have been interested in this sort of analysis of the games myself, and have run a few experiments. I have done one for 100,000 spins of Jurassic Jackpot, and I have done others on the Blackjack games, which have been the subject of much debate in the past.

I believe the feature slots are more volatile due to the large wins possible in the feature mode, but this means that if you fail to get the feature for an extended period the overall return is much lower that expectation, and the temptation to carry on for the feature which "must surely come soon", in order to recover is evident.

If the expected hit rate is one in 150 spins, then a 700 spin famine is not too far fetched, but before this I had found the longest spell without a feature to lie between 300 and 400 spins. I also find that often the free spin mode is rather poor, sometimes with not a single win for the 15 free spins, not even the regular small ones, and as soon as the spins are over the small wins start coming again.

hot : Tomb Raider deposited $300 and played with $15 per spin. Got the 10 Spins 8x (!) in a half hour for $4400 at the end
best run was consecutive 30 Freespins, with 4x Lara during the Games

neutral : Big Kahuna ca. 100 spins, no features but nothing lost because monkeys came very often x2 and x3

cold : Spring Break lost $1400 back with $22.50 spins quickly, without freespins

Hi,

I think it would be interesting saying the casino that we play to...

roxy palace :
thunder- 450 spins - 3 features ; betting 0.45 won - 26..., 32,... 6
gems g.g. - 160 spins - 2 features ; betting 0.50 won - 1.2 and 6.7

32red(this casino is great)
thunder 6670 spins ( left it play to play wile i was sleeping ) i don't now the features that came out, but my pot went from 150 to 620... what a good breakfast i had today...

Don't you notice that when you are playing with a bonus the slots don't pay equal, from when you play without a bonus?

Adios.

I have never ever played slots, and have just sent $50 deposit to Lucky Nuggett for a $200 bonus.

Could I ask for advice which slots to play there, or are they all the same more or less?

Also should I just stay with the same game till I exhaust the bonus, or change games.

Tks

How do you have over $800 in there if you're only up 100?

Agreed - totally BRILLIANT!!
