Can’t disagree with that but it’s not just them. All the other providers update games constantly.
Fixed that for you.
filth ?????
how can you categorically say the games not bent ???? DROP ME OUT. it’s absolutely fucking filth and they’ve messed with it and made it totally beyond reproach. the rtp has been lowered 100% and they’ve also nerfed the bonus within a inch of its life. factsLol...I retrieved the previous year's losses, gradually. That wasn't my best ever run, that took place at Casumo in my old euro account there, made 12-13k euros in a few weeks. Sky Vegas was a disaster for me, I had 94% stats from Bonanza during my total time there, and an incredibly bad 90% on Starclusters. So over the last 2 years, before I ran out of UKGC casinos, I finished about par on it, what I consider to be extremely fortunate. I actually checked bank statements a couple of weeks ago, as I can go back 6 years until when I first played it. It's difficult to be exact, because I lost on The Rapist and Twin Spin etc. too, but based on the assumption I played 80% of my time on Bonanza my net losses over that period are worse than I actually thought, approx 24k and over 30k overall including the sessions I played other slots.
Considering the vast turnover I had on it, I would say my RTP was actually around 95%, it's hard to be accurate. So not great, but not as depressing as if it had been say 92% as that would have made that 24k well over 50k.
Having now had well over a month off of it, I can't say I miss the game or gambling at all for that matter. The game isn't 'bent' but simply has awful RTP distribution due to the high variance and unlike other HV slots, it doesn't seem to make up swings in consistent play. I bet if I had chosen DoA or DoA2 for that period and amount of spins, I would have had numerous wildlines and wins over 5000x on the former, or even 30-40000x on the latter. Just by sheer weight of numbers. And that's the only thing that gets me regarding Bonanza - how daft I was chasing the rainbow of the 'potential' 10k x in the feature when in reality all I got was a third of that twice and a quarter once. And never saw an 8+-scatter trigger, only once got 1000x in the base game. If nothing else, the Bonanza slot is the master of illusion and irrational hopes and expectation. The 'psych-ops' of online slotting.
Looking back, the final year I had on it was my luckiest ever and I am surprised and even grateful it occurred, as it made what would have been a very painful 5-year net loss of nearly 40k into a more bearable, albeit still dreadful one of around 24k. So I am glad I cut my losses, literally and have no plans to return to it even if I can find a new UKGC site or crapto one, if they have the game.
One final word of advice - if you are well down like me, and are enduring a sub-par RTP in the medium term, remove all optimism and expectation from your mindset - you'll NEVER retrieve the situation and that statement carries more weight and reality the longer you've been playing the game.
exactly my point. yes the game could be a bastard to bonus but prior to gamstop it was bordering on absolute insanity. deposit £50 no bonus end up depositing £600-£800 no bonus across all sites. rage and not play for a week go back to it thinking it will compensate and drop one in but no again another fruitless vile robbing experience. so towards the end it wasn’t even compensating just plain thievery ????Even if and it’s an almighty IF, the game is running as it always did, then shouldn’t there be some other kind of standard the game has to pass, In as much as, taking hundreds if not thousands of pounds to trigger a bonus that on average (allegedly) pays x100?
That doesn’t seem morally or ethically right Imo.
What I will add is that the game did seem to change periodically over the first 5 years but it wasn’t until EVOLUTION took over that it changed beyond recognition.
Just coincidence? Well, there have been plenty of rumblings regarding EVOLUTION and generally, there’s no smoke without fire.
Another thing that never happened to me in the first 5 years was depositing and wagering ridiculously huge amounts without seeing a bonus, it never happened but since then, I have probably 30-40 instances of wagering £1,000 and sometimes £2,000 without seeing a bonus. That just stinks of something is wrong.
At least 6 of these instances have been at Party Casino, where the game goes unbelievably long periods without a bonus. I have even pm’d BTG and explained one of the worst sessions and got a reply from Nick, who said and I quote, “that doesn’t seem possible”. I asked him if he would kindly look into it but never got a reply.
I wonder why?
it’s really quite funny that you think this industry is above board ??????????
Why would it have to be the same chance every spin? I mean, it has to be a constant chance on the press of the start button, but if it then chooses reel bands that don't have booked symbols on them, but instead has lots of stacks of a high symbol (for instance), that's perfectly legal, still random and pretty much how most games work..
yep something very shady about rtp on Bonanza,at videoslots and mr vegas it plays the worst of the worst
add william hill to that and bentvictor
Hard volatility makes pretty weird things. I see my Razor shark stats from this year 20717 spins RTP 79,80%. It's 17 points below theoretical.
That’s another thing, there is a misconception that Bonanza was a highly volatile game. Bonanza was without doubt low- medium volatility. Ask any player that played it regularly enough in the first 4 years and they would probably say, it gave more gameplay than any other slot for your deposit.
Bonanza's never going to break Curremon, Never i tell ye!
Hang your head in shame Snorky - this is what commitment to the cause looks like
What if he lives in a third floor apartment?
At casinocasino swap 1000x to 5x
Smashes the old CM base game record of 48x 6OAK diamonds on max MW paying 2400x, in fact that beats Goatie's green gems in the bonus for over 4400x. You are the Big Dick of this thread now....
People have be calling me that since i was 16 - good to know it's now been validated via the internet
