They may well qualify as random according to the programmers/providers dictionary. I prefer to use the Oxford one. It’s the amount of twisting and tweaking that goes on that leaves you at a loss as to what your real chances of winning are.
Hypothetically according to programmers Bonanza could have just one winning position and it would still qualify as random. Apart from using different reel strips in the bonus rounds I also think this maybe happens in the base game.
I am fairly certain the 117,649 has more than one set. That’s why you more often than not see blocks of 7 symbols all the same on reel 3 and if you are lucky enough to hit with them they are replaced with another 7 that match. Also in normal play it seems like G and O come in every other spin (maybe not quite but you know where I am coming from) yet in the 117,649 which theoretically if the playing field was level gives you a higher chance of seeing GOLD yet it is very rare indeed to see any letters.
IIRC, BTG is using 8 different reel sets for Bonanza. Each is different and every spin will randomly pick one plus the spin result. Don't know though if only some are used for the free spins or all because the 117K are super, super rare in the bonus round.
I might have misread that but that's how I understood it.
so pretty much B2B GOLD+5 Bonuses. The first paid around 200x and just a spin or 2 later this bad boy dropped in. (Thats when Bandicam got booted up) Not a 1000X
But an amazing hit on the red jewels!
