New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[lukey141]

Which 'fake screenshot' would that be? I tried searching but getting lots of different screens so I don't know which one is the one I should be looking at.

I know I'm a fool for believing all sorts of shite but the 'unlimited' spins/multipliers gimmick is not one that I fall for. Obviously somewhere amongst billions and billions of spins there's a bonus that has a multi that gets so high or so many spins that the max win of a game is hit at which point the feature would end. So unlimited really means it keeps going until you max if you're on the max win script. Clearly most normal bonuses will not even get a fraction of the way there.

 

[Akercocke]

Another one for the shit pile - around 400 spins for this - less than 3.5x bonus.

 

[mack341]

With UKGC mostly asleep at the wheel, slot makers can get away with all sorts of deceptive stuff.

For over a month Ladbrokes/coral's in game profit/loss counter hasn't worked properly, you can be £100 down and then trigger a bonus that pays, say, £10 and when the game restarts after the bonus the profit/loss tool will display that you are now £10 in profit!

It's not as though this is a small gambling firm off the radar, but unless or until somebody complains to ukgc they won't have a scooby what's going on under their nose. They should have their own testing house that's busy checking stuff in the online casino realm to make sure it's watertight fair and operating as described.

I had just one of those in 9 years, of 12 dead spins zero win. Have had a couple of sub-1x, the most notable being on £4 spins, already cashed out a big profit, last spin with 4.50 left it dropped the feature in and paid 1.80, or 0.45x. That's the one I'll always remember. Like a punishment for cashing-out and winning beforehand. Didn't even have enough left for another £4 spin.

Dun, I watched your latest Bonanza video on YouTube. I wanted to say that the versions of Bonanza I play don't make those high return sound effects (the spring, the cow is it, etc) unless the return is at least 20x. The spring sound effect especially is for very high returns.

I notice the version you were playin was playin high pay sound effects for a $2 return on a $4 stake. It was weird to me.

 

[thediro]

Something you will notice about some versions of bonanza is the location of the "bet" box - Sometimes its down the bottom left corner, or sometimes its to the right middle of the screen...ive noticed this with Unibet / Paddy power

Paddy power has there "bet" box at the right hand side in the middle, where as Unibet has theres down the "bottom left" - i know it sounds stupid, but theres obviously got to be a variance there somehow considering there both totally different in terms of UI, so clearly both running different versions?

1 thing i noticed about Paddy powers version is, there cascade sizes, like 90% of your spins, the cascade blocks are HUGE, where as on unibet, theres frequent "small tile" cascades that have an actual chance of connecting to shit, paddy power one is just dead spin city.

290 spins later

- Bonus 1: Bet: 0.60p - Payout: £5.90

another 70 spins later

- Bonus 2: Bet: 0.40p - Payout £7.30

I thought fuck this, going back to bullets and bounty.

66 spins into Bullets

SuperBonus 4 FS Scatter on 0.20p - Payout: £280

Well.....fuck BTG and there shitty games

 

[megadam]

All I have to say especially for BTGs is I feel that they nerfed their back catalogue to try and drive their players to play their new crap games in a justification to continue to exist as a brand. And yes yes I know what we're going to say about random nature and all of that stuff but I never got rogered for the number of sub 10x features on Bonanza years ago than I have done in the past year.

I've noticed that before, BTG are so sophisticated, switched on, above board and always thorough that they base the triggering sounds on the 20p stake, so if you're playing £1 stake and get a 2x win it plays the same sound effect as a 10x win on 20p

I don't know if it's the same on every version or whether they've fixed it anywhere seeing as they're such geniuses to have created a random game with billions of combinations and an unlimited spins bonus round, which will always be bang on 96rtp as long as 'enough' spins are done.

 

[lukey141]

Another £200 in the bin.

Fucking RTP jesus christ.

My RTP over the last 3000 spins has been 67%, my best hit is 80x.

The bet box is purely dependant on screen size - if you resize your browser window, it'll move to the regular spot.

Odd, there's no noise if the win is 1x or less, some noise if over 1x and a lot when it's 25x plus - the stake shouldn't matter, sounds odd what you are saying.

Also here's a screenshot of the 'UNLIMITED FREE SPINS' round on Wish Upon A Jackpot on the Blueprint digi cabs. Generally does about 15-20 spins, if that.

New Slot Announcement Post in thread 'Bonanza by Big Time Gaming'

Jan 11, 2026

Why?? Bonanza doesn’t have a ‘max win’ as such does it? It’s apparently set by the casino in terms of what they would allow/pay out should that miracle happen whereby you hit multiple lines of 6 OAK diamonds on a huge multi.

It’s not like pragmatic or NLC/Hacksaw/push etc etc. These games have pre scripted max win patterns that should you be lucky enough to pull from the bag are presented to you via reel displays.

BTG use to love mentioning the fact that bonanzas bonus round (amongst other games of theirs) isn’t pre scripted thereby giving you this unlimited multiplier and unlimited...

• ChopleyIOM

• 

--------------

Somewhere in BTG's vaults will be the data they did when they were designing and testing this slot, so they'll know what the highest win and multiplier it ever achieved was.

Using the word 'unlimited' conjures up images in our brains that are quite deceptive, they're using it more in the context of it not being a defined number, rather than it can end up at a 8463x multiplier or some such shit. There's a Blueprint game called Wish Upon A Jackpot on the pub digi cabs that has an 'unlimited' free spins round that generally gets to about 15 spins or so before the other things that end the round kick in. Same sort of idea.

Don't get me wrong on this, I'm not defending the way BTG marketed and promoted Bonanza, especially with the fake screenshot bullshit. But both things can be true at the same time, BTG were deceptive arseholes AND working out the average cost of a slots feature is a solved mathematical problem.

Bonanza has more complex maths than many games, that's kind of baked into Megaways and all the dynamic reel sets and other stuff it has going on, but it's nothing that can't be crunched down into a digestible stats sheet after having a powerful computer chuck as many billions upon billions of simulated game rounds through it as is deemed necessary to get the numbers right.

The word (Unlimited) is Stretching it though i do agree, There is clearly a underlined limit going on in the background obviously as no one will ever get to silly levels of multipliers like they want you to believe.

I belive the word UNLIMITED, if you have actually played this game, ever. Well.

Its taking the piss rather frankly calling it unlimited and they should not be allowed to even claim it is in my opinion.

Unlimited. Aso known as, Tust me bro! My multipliers get real big bro!


A load of TOSH!

Yeah it's a shitty move on BTG's part but IMO the bigger failure here is from the regulatory side of things, because language like 'UNLIMITED' being permitted on an online slot is clearly deceptive.

A regulator that was actually, y'know, regulating properly, would tell BTG to stuff their 'unlimited' terminology up their arse, report back as to the maximum multiplier that was ever achieved over the testing cycle, and report that in the rules as the maximum attainable multiplier.

I appreciate that level of slot-per-slot granular regulation isn't realistic so the better answer would be to prohibit language such as 'unlimited' being used at all when it comes to online slots.

There was a similar sort of kerfuffle with UK based fruit machines at one point, manufacturers were using the word 'SKILL' to describe features that weren't actually skill and the machine would 'jump' to the result it wanted on so-called 'skill climbs' and whatnot. The regulator (can't remember if it was the UKGC at that time, we're talking 20 years or so ago), added a line to the regulations that stated the word 'skill' could only be used to describe gameplay elements that were genuine skill and entirely under the player's control.

At that point the word 'skill' largely disappeared from fruit machines

Oh my God, they should be embarrassed for that.

This is the reason that I cannot take you seriously old chap. You come across as the slotmaster of infinite wisdom, and then blurt out a dollop of tripe.

Do you truly believe that a provider designs a slot, but doesn’t know what the max win or highest multiplier is? You really believe that they design a slot, then take it to a testing lab to see what it can do? The mind boggles.

That's not what I said, at all. (Seriously old chap, just read the actual words!)

My point is that BTG will have the numbers for both the highest multiplier Bonanza ever achieved in their own testing, and its max win, and they should be stated in the rules/help file, instead of this 'UNLIMITED' nonsense.

Similarly the RTP a game is running at should be displayed in the centre of the screen every time any game is loaded in, so no shady nerfing can be done behind the scenes without even telling the player that they're about to start playing a completely different game from the last time they loaded it in. (Videoslots, I'm looking at you.)

There's a lot of stuff that could be handled better from a regulatory perspective, but unfortunately the UKGC keeps missing a lot of open goals in this regard.

 

[thediro]

I think we can all agree that 3 things are certain when it comes to slots.

1 - Noone, will ever truly know the mathematical methods behind slots, its intentionally designed that way, but regardless, house always wins

2 - The UKGC doesnt give a shit about its proper "regulations" towards gambling, like most people/companies in real life, there in it for the cash

3 - Things will NEVER change, money talks and so long as these casinos are paying MILLIONS per year in tax - You honestly think the governments/UKGC are actually gonna do anything about it?


We can all sit here and speculate til we are all blue in the faces about how these bastard things work, but in the end.....they will always be the ones coming out on top.

I mean look at Hacksaw ffs, how many times can a company get away with re-releasing the same slot over and over but just with a different skin...

I actually got to 35x multiplier off of a standard trigger once, an outlier to anything I achieved since.

OK, BTG do their testing over billions of spins, as there's no win cap like with Prags, SlackJaw etc. they simply use their biggest hit as the figure.

If you remember the Lil' Devil hit where a UK player got (IIRC) over 110,000x on a 40p stake (it's on the forum somewhere, the video) Nik from BTG actually stated they never saw one like that in testing and auditing.

That tells you there is some kind of random element to the free games structures they have, so although the chances are vanishingly small, the possibility IS there for the planets to line up, even if they haven't in billions of test results. With most providers, Push Gaming and others as above, the bonus round results are singular and pulled from the bag, pre-decided as opposed to having separate outcomes for each free spin.

So I do still believe you could hit 20k + x stake on Bonanza.

I think even Push has some games that have some random elements to the bonus.
I remember some Swedish guy got a Razor shark bonus that exceeded anything they had seen in testing.

Still sounds a bit iffy to me tho. Would a casino really host a game that could technically bankrupt them even if the odds of it happening are a gazillion to one?
Probably doesnt matter for bigger outfits but a multi-million €/£ hit could probably put a smaller casino out of business.
I think even these games with a so called unlimited potential has 'brakes' programmed into them if the planets would ever align to produce a win that is too big.

yes, the player on Push landed a 5k coin or something when on 16x - I can't recall exactly, but I know they got 80,000x was it? Yes, Push said they'd not seen that happen.

There’s one reason this theory comes unstuck. No Casino hosts a game where their liability isn’t known. Even on a live roulette wheel, you will be limited to a max bet.

That’s why, NLC and some other providers have a max stake of 40p on certain games, because they know the max win and the Casinos that host the games wouldn’t be interested in a higher liability.

I have seen Bonanza available at £20 spins. At 20,000+ x stake, that’s a liability of 400,000k+. No matter how unlikely that hit would be, no Casino would take it on, with the worry that they might be the unlucky one.

 

[paul7388]

All this talk about getting a hit that would pay millions and bankrupt a casino.

You will probably find most casinos have a term that says max payout on any slot is say £250,000 as i know all UK bookies sites state it.

So in a way they don't have to worry about a win paying millions. as say you hit a 100,000 x win on a £10 stake they would only pay a quarter of it.

Yes still a huge sum but if a casino can't face a liability of that amount they shouldn't be operating.

And just checked a site i use Lottomart.
Thay have more than covered themselves from huge wins by having a cap of £250,000 in a day not just a spin regardless of size of bet. So say you went on a lucky streak and hit few 10,000 x wins on a £5 stake then managed a 80,000x on a £5 stake it wouldn't hurt them as all you would be doing is winning money you can't keep.

Gamdom offers Bonanza at a max stake of €70/spin

 

[snorky510238]

Irrespective of limits, a Casino still needs to know their liability. It’s the first rule for anybody offering a gambling service. 10 players hitting £250,000 in a day is £2,500,000. They’re not interested in the fact that it’s highly unlikely. They work on what is possible, however unlikely it is.

Even Companies as big as Hills, offload their liabilities. If an accumulator bet on the horses reaches a certain potential, they will offload the excess to another Company. Also, if it’s a straight bet, they will only take a stake that doesn’t exceed their liability.

Not true - you have some Big Bass games with 20,000x tops and they can be played on high stakes, the casino will use stake limits in accordance with their desired liability and funding. I hear what you are saying, but the chances of hitting an outlandish amount, not only that but on a rarely-used £20 stake are remote to non-existent. As you say, if the casino is conscious of the possibility, they will cut their cloth accordingly.

Bookies lay off some bets, but not all the liability - they make a judgement that if it comes in they will only be paying out half the possible liability by laying part off, then again it's their gamble because if the punter lost the last leg then the bookie wastes part of their potential profit. That is why they sometime offer to settle accumulators early and buy back the bet from the punter.

 

[thediro]

Couldnt fucking believe it if i recorded it.

Just got back from work, noticed i still had £8 on my balance, thought fuck it, bonanza torment time, went into bonanza, i went to set my usual bet but i thought "Im gonna warm the slot up a bit first", set it to 0.20p bet, hit spin £72 base hit, first spin.

Im sitting there in fucking AWE at the fact i DIDNT set my fkn bet to 0.40 like normal, but a £72 base hit is MENTAL.

THEN

Withdraw £50 (i know my limits pfff)

£30 left....

Got down to £22 on 0.40p bets - G-O-L-D - 12 spins = 8 dead / Total payout £3.40

Down to £8 / G-O-L-D = 12 spins / 7 dead Total payout £6

*sighs*

spin again down to my LAST 0.80pence on the balance, G-O-L-D +5 = YASSSSS!

17 spins - 11 dead spins = total Payout: £9.40

I dunno whos cock i need to start fondling over at Big Time Goblins but this is getting beyond morbid....

£72 base hit was a cracker though i got me my takeaway delivery for tonight!

 

[lukey141]

Funny, I had my best base game hit last night. 'Only' 190x. For how much I've spun the game that seems pretty piss poor.

Still you usually get baited with these hits but for once it actually connected up a fuck ton of kings over 100 ways which looks beautiful but caught me unaware so I didn't manage to screen it.

 

[snorky510238]

There are many a tale I could tell, regarding Bonanza and its piss taking, but of course it’s pointless because snorky is deluded, suffers from gamblers fallacy, etc, etc.

So without going into details:

I hit GOLD on my very last spin at least 30 times. Many of these involved a reduction in stake to be able to complete a spin. 60p spins….,45p balance, so reduced to 40p. Not a single one, ever paid a decent amount.

Played through around 2,000 spins at 60p without seeing GOLD, but also without losing more than £5 of my balance. Dropped the stake to 20p just to change something and hit 3 GOLDS in the next 4 spins.

There was also a period where increasing the stake resulted in GOLD appearing on the first spin….Not every time, obviously, but more often than you would consider it a coincidence.

I could go on and on listing anomalies that others see as random events. They’re not random. They’re programmed to appear to be random.

Have any of you played online tournament poker?

If so can you please just post in this thread, as to whether you think the outcomes are completely random or fixed.

No need to elaborate, just one word, fixed or random,

Those who abstain will be considered conspicuous by their absence.

 

[lukey141]

I play online poker and I firmly believe it's random, as random as getting the computer to 'randomly' deal hands/cards can be.

I don't see what the site gains by fixing cards in a tournament. I know people say that for cash games because action cards generate more rake but with how many hands are played online every day there's obviously going to be plenty of times where cards are action heavy just through randomness.

Not to mention a big site found to be rigging cards would be an absolute PR disaster and surely massively illegal. Maybe smaller sites without proper regulation but the big ones nah.

 

[thediro]

And honestly i totally appreciate and get the "love / hate" relationship with BTG and this slot over all, but from my *personal* experience, there has never come a slot even remotely close to the "RNG" and unpredictability than BTG ones, especially bonanza.

Its the only slot that will almost 90% of the time NOT drain you dry within 5-10min.

And again i can super appreciate that "Well at least games like Elk, NLC, hacksaw have chances of actually getting max wins and such" - Yeah, but they also take a great fortune or extremely super irish luck to actually get there, if you dont have both, you can be sure anyone of those games are sucking your balance drier than Gandhi's flip flop.

Least with BTG and most there slots, theres that "entertainment" value that i guess all of us always forget is the principle to these "games" in the first place, even though clearly were all here to try win some fucking money, the fact is, id rather play a slot that has a mad variant of RNG that can take you by surprise outta nowhere even WITHOUT the "bonus or features", base hits alone keeping you alive enough to enjoy your session and sometimes in my case, bailing you outta nowhere with a smashing lil small fortune just from a well articulated base hit!

That is certainly a big factor.

I've played a fair amount of NLC and I've had a couple 1000x+ hits. At the same time I've been utterly destroyed on them way more. Overall as an average every hour spun is way more expensive there than on BTG. I'm also sure that for all my constant complaints about how poorly I'm running my RTP is still higher than on NLC taken as a whole. There's also just far less variance. There's no 1 standout hit on Bonanza that has made on broke my play as my best hit is only around 500x. Meanwhile I've had a $5000 2.5kx hit on NLC and without that hit I'd be stupidly down on the provider.

What symbol gave the big return?

You want the honest truth, god knows, i hit "spin" looked away at my tray to roll my smoke, heard the "MOO KABOOSH" noise, looked back up, and all i was hearing was the lil jingle sound when its counting up the monies.

Literally 1 cascade, not multiple, just 1 big BOOM

I’m gonna guess this paid less than 150x stake so a final win of less than $60 - and out of 27 spins I’m gonna guess at at least 12 that are completely dead.

 

[thediro]

Im calling it now, first 4 spins were dead - the rest all smashed it and hes coming back with a

total payout: $240

I think this thread is living proof that regardless our sexual preference, were all choking for that D.

(This was just 1 spin^)

Doesnt actually give any replays, or anything like that to track "how" it hit as opposed to just how much it hit, sadly...

Are we gathering you didnt return because you put your head through the screen?

Or he hit a 40000x and passed out.

I'll take thediro's suggestion I think . But surely 250-300x at least and even that would feel bad for a triple +5

Such a sick setup though, watching those +5's drop in on top of each other with each cascade must have been crazy to watch

 

[irish-ranger]

Or he hit a 40000x and passed out.

More like the screen has been bucked thru the nearest closed window

 

[thediro]

Im sitting here in more suspense than what he probably was when the +5 dropped....

 

[M!ke]

I bet he got two spins that combine to be 200x.
