New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

Read our BTG review and find out where to play BTG slots
you're up 55 for August 5 ?, but what about August 4 when you said you were down 660 or something.

Hadn't gone to bed yet so I counted it as part of the same day :D

Was down £660. Had 2 fast (60x) bonuses and a decent base game elsewhere and withdrew £170.
Lost another £200 then made £100 back. Lost another £100 then that final hit back to +£55. Basically I was screwed and I knew it. Bonanza not the kind of game to bail you out with the big hits but you're never out of it if you've got spins left heh.

The good news is I set up deposit limits across the sites last month so I can't repeat the mistake again anytime soon.

Yeah I've had a couple of 5OAK purples in the last 2 weeks when I'd had none for months before.

I did just manage to lose £200 back this afternoon. At least it lasted nearly 2 hours but no bonus in like 1200-1300 spins is always depressing!
 
Pretty crazy,

last few days I've had 2 bonuses over 100x and 4! under 10x.

Really s**t stretch that shows no sign of ending.

Just noticed i can skip the win count on Coolbets Bonanza, has that always been possible on the Relax version?
I have only played Bonanza at videoslots for the longest time and you cant do it there.

Also it plays at the speed of light, at least compared to whatever version Videoslots uses.
Before you even have time to see that the spin is dead another deadspin is already there to take its place, amazing.

There's literally every speed version available. Across all the sites I've played I've come across:

Fast spin even if it's a 0x
Fast spin into fast tumble even if tumble is dead
Fast spin on hit and fast tumble on hit/slow on dead

Slow spin dead
Slow spin hits, tumble slow can still hit
Slow spin hits, tumble fast hit, slow dead

I believe the fast spinners (Slots Temple and Casumo as far as I remember) at all points you can click through wins. Think the other versions you have to wait it out. Not played coolbets so don't know which one they're using but if you say it's playing fast it must be the Slots Temple version which is the Relax v 2.97.0

Yup, its that version.
I think i prefer whatever version Videoslots is using.

If this one throws out a 400x+ win that i can use for the comp i might change my mind. =)
 
The fast version is nice because you can spin a lot faster but there's no way to know if a tease will hit. Personally I don't like that, maybe if someone who likes the surprise they'd prefer it though.

Honestly my favourite is the slow/fast one that Coral and Ladbrokes use. Not only can you tell if the tumble will hit but you can even tell if the initial spin will hit. Makes it a lot easier to tell if a GOL will actually drop the D even on the natural drops.

If the top comes out fast and you see no connect bonus is guaranteed. Only version that let's you know that. That being said of all the websites I've used for Bonanza Coral and Ladbrokes have destroyed me the most so maybe that version isn't the one I should play lol.

I'd also love to know what the FUCK Slots Temple is doing with their shitty Bonanza version. I've never seen anything like it. I've just lost ANOTHER £100 no bonus.

368 spins I didn't get a SINGLE L tease. WTF

I'm not even joking the game has now eaten 700x and given no bonus in 1981 spins. Criminal, absolutely criminal

At a 1/460 frequency, you'd expect to go 2000 spins without a feature once out of every 78 features.

So it's pretty unlucky, but absolutely well within the range of expected results, and anyone who lumps away at Bonanza for any amount of time will go on 2000 spin feature droughts with a reasonable degree of regularity. (As the droughts get longer the probability of one occurring decreases, but 2500, 3000 and even 3500 spins without a feature are going to happen at some point.)
 
You wanna talk about unlucky?? Trying desperately to not get seriously fucking tilted reading this thread.

Paddy power - £1,200 stakes 80p - £2 NO FEATURE - Last £500 of that at £2 stake - Loss Limit Reached have to leave.

Bet 365 - £250 on £1 stake - NO FEATURE - Loss Limit reached have to leave.

Slots Temple 1 £550 - 60p - £2 stakes 1 FEATURE - 75x - Loss Limit reached have to leave.

Ladbrokes - £200 - 80p stake NO FEATURE. Lost will to live - contemplating life itself. Had to leave.

All this over 2 days. For 1 fucking feature.

X WISE that’s like Dazza starting with his £250 (62.5x deposit) monthly limit and going almost 3 years for 1 feature.

Enough is enough now.

That’s the 2nd time I’ve gone almost 2000x for a fucking feature in consecutive months on bonanza and with dog house and madam destiny (enhanced feature chance on) both wanting over 1000x to feature during the same period my patience has all but ran out with this bull s**t.

I’ve taken some fucking poundings in this game over the years but never have I seen the like across a 2 month period.

Actually lost count how much I’m down with the most disgusting vile game play you could ever imagine over a sustained period.

Booking a holiday abroad where the last thimg on my mind will be even thinking about buying some more of thus ‘entertainment’

Give me a fucking break. Disgusting.
 
Well I've also managed to lose £700 on the stupid game today to add to the hundreds more pissed away so far this month.

I did get a few bonuses but they all paid 40x or less. Base game dead as usual.

And I've hit my deposit limits everywhere so I'm tilted, down bad AND unable to play more. Great combo lol
 
I never thought I'd be posting in the Bonanza thread but for *some* reason, I've found myself to be playing this game a lot lately...
3k spins in for the night, I have to say I've never experienced a game be so kind to the balance: I started at 3.075 and am currently at 3,100. Of course, this friendliness towards the balance goes at the expense of any bigger hits landing - I am still yet to see a 200x, not only tonight but for 6 days straight - but frankly I think I'd rather have it this way, balance intact while the dream for that one big hit still very much alive and breathing.

It's a very fun slot imo. I like the base game more than the bonus tbh.

It will drop in plenty of very decent base hits to keep your balance going. I've not played any other slot that drops in so many 25x+ hits just in the base game during one try. Had quite a few 100x+ too.

I only give it 10x these days and go play something else. You will be surprised at how long 10x will last on this quite often and also let you ride the base game until a bonus drops in.

Makes the usual 100x and lower bonuses actually feel like a win as I'm never more than 10x down when it hits and plenty of times I'm up from the base game too.

I find it better to just see what the base game does for 10x/20x and try to 'freeroll' to a bonus from the base game playing well rather than try to bonus or bust. I even leave plenty of times if I'm up from the base game.
 
nothing went well with Bonanza today for me (2nd time I played Bonanza on a Friday and both were losses so Fridays are banned from now on), first deposit tenner gone in 90 spins on min bet, then 2nd deposit a tenner gone in 68 spins on min bet. switched to another casino, then a 3rd deposit a 15 eur , it lasted 507 spins on min bet! (10 L's).. then tried out 40cent stake and that took about 15 eur in just 66 spins (one max megaways that paid 1x), and then another 15 eur on 60c stake gone in 35 spins, 0 bonuses. yet there were 13 L's , 1 at the first casino and then 12 at the 2nd, 5 of those 13 were hearbeat chances.

Found I had £150 left to deposit on Video slots so I took my last shot.

Crazy session got a bonus on my 6th spin. Retriggered on 2nd spin of bonus and paid a respectable amount. Given it came so fast I obviously kept spinning a bit, soon found my balance draining way down.

Then I got a max ways huge jack connect, screenshot a fraction of a second too late. Then on that same spin my first ever max ways bonus. Was kind of gutted because I knew the bonus would be s**t given the base game already paid 130x. Sure enough bonus paid 15x lol. But still recovered some of todays losses.

Must be the worst time for you after reading your post above. Especially with the comp thread being bonanza too.

All these randoms and casuals hitting bonuses cos of the comp are messing it up for you professional and loyal bonanza players!

To get that 126x on a max megaways and drop the GOLD is very cool :thumbsup:

I usually get nothing on them!

You should start recording your sessions. Bonanza is probably the one slot that definitely needs it. Was a game changer for being able to see what landed then just screenshot the recording.

One of theses guys advised it when I joined and to just delete and restart every 5 mins or so if nothing happens which was good advice too.

Yeah I'd love to know the odds for max ways. Is there any number floated around? Feels like it's actually quite rare, less than 1 in 200.

If the bonus is 1 in 450 too that means a max ways trigger is 1 in 90,0000 spins at least, probably a lot more. Also bearing in mind not all version of the game even have bonus symbols on max ways and it's extremely rare.
 
The billy bullshitter rep said it was about 1 in 500 spins to see max ways. Largely irrelevant as most of them are dead spins anyway.

Mind you, this was the same rep that said max ways were possible in the bonus so don’t believe a fucking word of it.

All versions now can produce scatters in the max ways. Just not on the first initial spin like falls can. Only via cascades.
 
Yeah rarer than a bonus when they're so often dead or not even the spin back.

But if it's true then triggering a bonus in max ways is more like 1 in 225,000? Guess it would explain why I never saw it myself before yet.

Didn't know that about the scatters. Now I know why I thought some versions didn't have any because you almost never get tumbles to get a chance to see them anyway!

Oh well I can tick off triggering a bonus on max ways AND triggering a bonus when already having over 100x, like a pragmatic super scatter :D

Running out of things to see now.

Missing a GOLD+5+5 natural
A cascade that drops in GOLD in 1 go
GOLD landing DLOG.

Somehow doubt I'll ever see these though.

Also still want to see a 500x + base game and 6OAK purples in the bonus, even if it's just 1 way on 1x multi.
I'm pretty sure I've had a GOLD+5 that double retriggered so 27 spins? Breaking 30 would be crazy too.
Not sure what the highest multi I've seen has been, since I started counting it's 27x so I suppose seeing it go over 30 would be something too.

Mmmmm let me see……..

Gold +5 +5 natural - I presume you mean straight in?? Never had that.

I’ve had all GOLD drop in once from a cascade that had no scatters on the initial spin.

Base game my highest is 700 odd x think I’ve had 500x plus a couple of times.

Had 32 spins twice. One from +5’s and the other from retriggers. The famous 80 odd x from one and just under 200x from the other.

The fact that 64 spins combined couldn’t make 300x tells u all u need to know about this game.
 
What about DLOG? You remember seeing GOLD drop completely backwards?

Would take G on reel 4,5 or 6 then several tumbles dropping each letter backwards. Seems so unlikely but it surely must exist. I know I've had bonuses trigger with just G dropping late then OLD in the tumbles but they usually drop in order or at least 2 at once which prevents them being the wrong way round.

I definitely feel like my base game luck is below average. My best being only 300x after so many spins is quite telling. Every time I see purple connect on 1 and 2 my heart skips a beat thinking it's finally time, but it always stops there or maybe once in a blue moon makes it 3 or 4 reels.
 
After last night's successful session that got boosted from around break even to a 113% one right at the end, I was expecting the game to steer down towards 96% once I resumed playing today and indeed it was for the largest parts of the 3,875 spins (7 features) I put through it and with only 26 spins of my session remaining, I was down around 250x (up from -500x at some point during the first half of the spins). However, I got real lucky then, with so few spins remaining, hitting a massive 272.5x which not only brought today's result back to almost exactly break even but got me a first Silver Target entry for the comp as well! 😃
Speaking of the comp, I actually hit a 401x too (in the base game nonetheless) but I probably shouldn't enter it there since it's pretty close to the one I got last night and now that I, too, am a Bonanza Believer, I feel it's got even better hits coming my way! (Famous last words?)

Wow you're hammering away at the game.

We've converted another one!

Speaking of which. FINALLY got a bonus on Slots Temple

It ate 750x and 2549 spins!! to drop. As far as I can remember that's the longest it's taken me to get a bonus on the game anywhere ever.

Paid 95x which barely paid back the last 100x I put in lol. So I'm still down 680x.

I know the game never owes anything but I kept chasing anyway. Now I can finally stop throwing money there lol.

You hit GOLD and four +5 in the base game and it returned 80x?

That must be the max scatters that can be hit then?

Oh I misread that then

GOLD+5+5+5+5 trigger?

I just assumed it capped out at +5+5. In that case add another to see on the list: Trigger with 3 or more +5 on the board
 
so from what I've read is that while they can't alter the reel visuals after the roll, developers intentionally design the virtual reel layout and math model to generate near misses very frequently.

Oh yes the matching colours that trick your brain for a fraction of a second are very intentional and frustrating haha

Yet IIRC, it was one of the many new UKGC rules brought in that got overlooked or misunderstood like when they took the slow teaser spins from DoA :rolleyes:

Do nothing about misleading a player into a "bonus must be close" yet remove auto play :rolleyes:
 
That's part of UKGC rules?

So how does that work with those stupid collect type features where the pile of gold or whatever grows bigger as you collect more? I know the rules say this is visual only and means nothing for actual progress but to a player just spinning it looks like progress and suggests a bonus must be close no?

Just too many near miss type spins in the bonus that honestly make it feel more scripted than the random spins it's supposed to be.

Wouldn't surprise me if the bonus is 'ball in the bag' rather than what everyone would assume is meant by random call on every spin for a reel based slot.

It's at the point now where they don't even get a reaction out of me as it happens on pretty much every dead spin in the bonus.

Oh look a purple A on the cascade when a diamond would be a big win or one reel with a column full of the same symbol blocking anything from hitting etc.

They probably get around it by mentioning it in the game info. I think the rules were designed around the actual reels or grid so the companies probably realised the loophole is to do all the extreme visual tricks outside of that with pots and other nonsense.

I did see one new slot that had it clearly stated on the intro screen though. Was quite amusing that it had the hype about 'glowing things can randomly trigger bonus' and then right underneath in small print '*not really its just for show' :laugh:

Yes, hence the two eye roll emojis

Piss up and brewery spring to mind :rolleyes:
 
LOL haven't posted here for a fair while.

I said this in many of my videos going back ages - on max ways you can trigger the bonus but you don't see the scatters on the initial spin, only appear in cascades.

You could get the 'God Spin' like the one above, i.e. the big win animation (25x plus) in a max meagreways spin and then the feature trigger thus getting my 'Holy Trinity' in one go. (last time I did this, it was remarkably similar to the example above - I got 131x and a 17x feature on top!)

I have had the maximum trigger on the initial spin ONCE in 10 years, i.e. scatters on all six reels. (You cannot get more than one scatter per reel in the first instance). I think it's in one of my older videos.

You can get 9-scatters or a 37-spin feature from the off, seen one video of this on YT paid about 1300x IIRC.
That must surely be a 1/100,000,000 spin. Possibly more.

You cannot get max ways in the feature, this was later amended for WWTBAM MW.

It is my belief that 6OAK diamonds are limited either to the first five FS or have a multiplier cap of say 3-4x? I say this due to the absence of any video or image showing otherwise. Same as I always said from the outset that max ways cannot happen in the FS.

Any stonkers of 5,000x plus will always occur from 6OAK red gem multiples or 5OAK diamond multiples. Any other symbols simply don't carry the weight of numbers although some big multi-k hits can occur from green, blue gems and A-K.
 
LOL haven't posted here for a fair while.
Most of the discussion before this one was around your videos. Only a few things you could have probably posted/repeated:

'I don't play demo or BTG test account'
'I only upload the decent sessions not the shite ones'
'I don't really have a 110% RTP version, it's just a joke'
'Go f*ck yourselves, this place is turning into BigWhineBoard/AskGrumblers'
:laugh:

Dazza has said this multiple times tho...
 
Is there a rule somewhere that if you trigger the bonus with a good win the bonus without fail has to be fucking awful?

Because EVERY time it seems to be the case. It's so depressing getting these bonuses.

Dropped natural GOLD then did 4 or 5 more largeish tumbles, I was sure it was going to put a +5 but nope.

I already lost £150 elsewhere (looking at you with your shitty Bonanza Slots Temple). With the balance and the trigger I was at £183. Only needed 67x in the bonus to break even. Shouldn't have been hard but well as you can see we managed a big old 7x from our 12 spins. Pisstake really.

My 3rd loading up of Bonanza for the weekend, going from spins #7,125 through #10,000 would be the point where the game realised it hadn't taken any money from me yet on my current deposit, so there was little else for me to do than just powerlessly watching it do its thing. I could only get 3 features in this interval, for a ratio of nearly 1 in 1,000 - about twice the "expected" frequency. Overall, it performed on 85% so it could have been worse I guess. I'll launch it for a 4th weekend session today, starting on 750x worth of balance. Fingers crossed 🤞

my 212th Bonanza campaign took 863 spins (avg stake 0.25), and when the bonus finally landed it was a 12 spinner on 0.60eur stake, trigger paid 1x (4500 megaways).

but what it did was right from the start it decided to give a dead spin, bad sign, bogus wild, scatter, scatter, bogus wild with 3000 megaways.

spin #2 , 2 ways 6-of-a-kind blue gems, increased the win multiplier to x2 (9072 megaways)

spin #3, dead spin, (scatter on reel), (5040 megaways)

spin #4, dead spin (6750 megaways)

spin #5, 8 ways of kings 4-of-a-kind and 2 ways of Jacks 3-of-a-kind, increased the win multiplier to x3 (2160 megaways)

spin #6, dead spin (1080 megaways)

spin #7, 8 ways of kings 5-of-a-kind and 1 way of 3-of-a-kind queens, increased the win multiplier to x4 (4500 megaways

spin #8, dead spin (4032 megaways)

spin #9, 4 ways 5-of-a-kind green gems, increased the win multiplier to x5 (4320 megaways)

spin #10, dead spin (5184 megaways)

spin #11, 8 ways 4-of-a-kind queens and 2 ways 3-of-a-kind blue gems, increased the win multiplier to x6 (1800 megaways)

and then the delay before the last spin....

and it did it what Bonanza does so well a near miss dead spin where just one a king on reel 3 or wild on reel 3 would have paid 288x on that spin (48 ways of kings on a x6 multiplier). which would have made the bonus pay 339.5x instead of the 51.5x that it paid. and would have made the campaign a profit of +120.67eur. but instead it was loss of -52.13 eur

the stakes during the 863 spin campaign.

719sp x 0.20 eur, 143.80 eur staked, loss of -40.07 eur, RTP 72.13%
66sp x 0.40 eur, 26.40 eur staked, loss of -15.18 eur, RTP 42.50%
78sp x 0.60 eur, 46.80 eur staked, win of +3.12 eur, RTP 106.67%

total staked; 217 eur, loss of -52.13 eur, RTP 75.98%

if the entire campaign had been 0.60 eur stake then it would have been a loss of 124.42 eur.
if the entire campaign had been 1.00 eur stake then it would have been a loss of 207.30 eur.
if the entire campaign had been a 2.00 eur stake then it would have been a loss of 414.60 eur
if the entire campaign had been a 4.00 eur stake then it would have been a loss of 829.20 eur
if the entire campaign had been a 5.00 eur stake then it would have been a loss of 1036.50 eur
