Something going on with Bonanza it is doing G to L a hell of a lot last night it whipped £150 off me in a flash just now I won some free spins got to £50 went on Bonanza and it was gone in less than 5 mins.

Thank goodness the sound issue has been sorted now

Exactly what I have experiences for over a week straight. I've played at all different hours makes no difference.
 
I’ve had a few bonuses the past few days, all paying out reasonably well, ca. £30 - £40 each time at VS (20p stake).
However, today I got my first ever 27 free spins. 22 plus a retrigger on the last spin.

It paid out £20.
 
I suspect it's going down the Rhino route GtoL is the new green 9s, maybe they reducing the payouts or adding GtoL as a blocker so it pays less as Donuts is out next Wednesday and they won't to get people hooked on that.

I await Dunover's verdict and to investigate if Bonanza has changed in his next few vids I certainly never thought I would such a low bonus as £2.75 in this game.
 
Well the stated RTP has remained exactly the same after the update, but that's not to say they haven't changed the feature frequency, or pay distribution, or variance.

Then again, on a slot that triggers the bonus once every 450 spins you'd need a pretty big spin sample to start to reach any conclusions on that.

I'm still not sure what the major appeal of this slot is TBH.

I am nearly 14k euros up on it in the last fortnight. that's the appeal for me.:D
 
From hardly ever getting more than 12 free spins, I had those 27 earlier and I’ve just had two 17 free spins drop in within 5 spins of each other.

It seems to be playing differently to me. It just feels different. Getting lots of 5x, 10x and even a few 20x base wins too, much more frequently than before.

Probably won’t last.

I did once think your secret to winning on bonanza was that sweet talkin you use to do during the bonus round 'come on baby' etc So I tried it myself and still got bugger all. Now I think it must be down to that cat of yours, ever thought of hiring him out to other slot players?

It’s pretty much a cert the upgrade won’t be in the players favour. As well as the infamous ‘rhino’ what the hell did they do with Jurrasic world? I used to trigger the bonus on that game for fun, even though most of them paid peanuts and used to get some base game wins up to x200. Now the wait for a bonus is scandalous, no decent base game hits. Do they think we won’t notice? Feels like they just slashed 30% off the rtp.
 
Having much better luck playing Chilli instead of Bonanza,if you just play the normal game and just take whatever
bonuses it gives you, it is far less volatile than Bonanza,Only time I seem to lose is when I start buying features.
It is very rare that I gamble the spins, the all or nothing is just too much for me.

I think Chilli could have been more popular than bonanza if they had given you 10 spins for the bonus and got rid of the gamble wheel, plus made the reels/screen bigger.

In bonanza the highest paying symbol, the diamond, very rarely appears at all in the bonus round, whereas in the chilli bonus the purple chilli is much more frequently seen.

A lot of people like the option of feature buy so it would have to remain, but I think like white rabbit it ruins the basic fundamental idea of playing slots and seeing what happens, and it is makes it possible to lose a lot of money in an extremely short period of time.
 
I’ve had reasonable luck on Bonanza until the last week or so. Many deposits without a bonus then when it finally dropped in (twice within 20 spins) got £2 and £15 on 20p stakes. Something has definitely changed for me :(
 
Still think that on Chilli they should have made the first 2 gambles give a high chance of +2 spins.
The first gamble of 50/50 with all or nothing is just to hard for me,dunno what the maths are
but something like 70/30 chance of +2 spins would make the game perfect IMHO.
 
I wouldn’t mind betting the fundamentals behind bonanza and extra chilli are the same with the only difference being the bonus on extra comes up twice as often on average but pays half as much to compensate. Devil or the deep blue take your pick.

yeah that would be a fair compromise, whenever I play it I try to ignore the gamble wheel but its hard as the way they have implemented it makes you feel it is a central pillar of the game and essential to getting a good bonus. In bonanza you often get at least 4 dead spins in the bonus, so even with only 8 spins in chilli the fundamentals could be very similar.

I better log off now, everytime I go to the forum homepage, I keep seeing my name, coming across as a right spammer :eek: or spanner as some people might think. :eek2:

Got bummed hard by Bonanza yesterday, problem with the game is it's the only one worth playing these days, despite my previous misgivings about it :D

All the regular oldies play like shite or have been gimped to high heaven. Either way, at least Bonanza's exciting and unpredictable...

Having said that, in recent months it seems to have got harder to bonus on. Yesterday, I must have had about four bonuses with £100's worth of deposits, and God knows how many spins :mad:

Did have a brief glimpse to break even, but seemingly whenever I get over 100 in my balance and mildly up bets to 40p I may as well pack up and go home because the D likes to play hide and seek without my consent :eek:

So not my greatest Bonanza dabble in recent memory, but there's always tomorrow :cool:

Or whenever I can next afford to chase this f*cker
 
had two quick bonuses got from 10 to 100 in quick time. took hour break went back at 80p a spin it took it all back so quick i was in shock!(not). should have withdrawn but lost so much on it recently even 100 quid feels small
 
I'm beginning to think I have to have a set of rules when I play it, the other night I won on rhino and had £70 in my balance now if I went straight on bonanza with the 70 I know from past experience I'm at severe risk of losing all of it. So I withdrew 65 leaving only £5 and luckily that was enough to get 1 bonus at 20p, which paid £30. In the future I might play it at only one casino and place a daily deposit limit on the account of say £20

I know, I've had that in about four out of the last five sessions. I'd get to above 100, starting on 20 or thereabouts, but soon find it loves to take it all back.

One looks for that final killer bonus round, but it never comes :mad:

Even had 10x multiplier with 10 spins to go, hazard a guess as to how many were duds? :laugh:
