Love them or hate them, win or lose bonanza and chilli have got to be the most addictive games ever produced,dunno
what it is about them but I just cant stay away from them,Present strategy on Chilli is to play until the feature buy is down
to about to two thirds then buy,never gambling.Had a lot of shit wins on 8 spins but enough good ones to hold my own.
Might be me but I get the impression that the chilli base game is a bit softer than bonanza.
Not in a gambling mood today for some reason, brain must need a detox.

Not sure about that Chilli base game as I have just posted in that thread :lolup:

But I have the same as you albeit for the past month or 2 already: just not in a real mood to gamble except for the odd day here and there and I was a daily player only a few months ago. All the new games seem to be either high volatility or pretend to be and trigger the free spins once every 500 spins because that is somehow now acceptable. I haven't had a free spins round in 3 deposits on about 15 (!) slots, and no they weren't all hv... Last one I had was on Jurassic Park and went for a whopping 15x bet. Starting to play slots right now is the best advertisement for responsible gambling, people just don't want to try again.

I also had a Lot of shit with 8 spins even when the first 1-4 Spins are Deadspins....so I mostly gamble to get 12.

yeah I can see what BTG have done, the bonus lands in half the time but then you have to do a 50/50 gamble to get the same number of spins as bonanza [12] so really your still stuck with one bonus on average every 450 spins.
 
OMFG. I just went from rage to phew.......... raging with anger I go from 40p to 80p with 20 pound left, triggers 17 spins.............I'm telling myself DO NOT TROLL ME......9 spins in x1 multi, I swear I nearly put my fist in my monitor..........somehow ended and a decent hit and my first withdrawal in ages. i had x9 off 1 spin alone. I must now stay away from this fucker even though still down about 400 on last 2 weeks alone........

Hope you lot have been filling it up for me. I had my 5th. ever 5-scatter drop in (no cascade, straight in) the other day, and like 3 of the previous 4 it paid less than 50x stake. Only twice have I got less than 50x on a 5-scatter trigger which cascades in and that's the huge majority of the 5-scatter triggers I've had. It seems to me therefore that the 5-scatter drop-in is scripted well and truly for shiteness, just like the 4-scatter trigger of doom on Rhino.

There are other 'tells' my antenna has picked up. I have a few expressions when I play that you may have heard, or not.

"GO to L" - the remarkable propensity for the game to drop an 'L' in when GO is in view then stop.
"Do not pass GO" - when GO is in view, the sheer lack of winning cascades which occur afterwards. This obviously has something to do with placement of scatters on the reels, their positions relative to other icons. The exception is the above scenario, when 'L' drops and stops.

I have never had a trigger off of the 117649-way spin.

You rarely get triggers that have the smallest scatter in them i.e. on a 7-position reel. The exception is when one is in view on a 7-row reel 1 and the other drops down on the same reel.

When the feature is going to drop, it's often preceded by 2 or 3 spins which bang 2 or 3 scatters in. (We see this sort of thing on IGT's Cleopatra and Novo's Book Of Ra Deluxe).

Diamonds seldom come in on cascades if 4 or more reels involved, they tend to be a straight-in event.

Quite often you get an 'all ways' 117649 way spin and the THIRD spin afterwards you see another one, usually both pay fuck-all or one does and the other less than 1x bet.

I have noticed lately that most of my bonuses have come with just GO in view with a 4 or 5 gap cascade and L and D drop together. This was an extreme rarity before but common now.

It's funny you should have noticed that too!
I have ONCE had all 4 drop down with none in view, in a line at the top on reels 1-4.
I have once had 3 drop down at once with 1 in view, same again, on 3 consecutive reels.
I have twice triggered the feature from 1 in view but getting one a time on 3 or 4 subsequent cascades.

In one session, 3 of the 4 features I had were LD dropping when GO was in view. As you say, that was rare but it's happening more and more - this suggests to me somethings' changed on the game, subtly.

Yes that’s my feeling too. I have had OLD drop in altogether once exactly as you describe. The interesting one is 3 times I have had D drop in the top left corner (1st reel) when it’s been the only position available. Also like you the same applies with the 117,649 ways. The other thing I hadn’t noticed until recently is there are 2 diamonds together on the 1st reel. I could be wrong but I am fairly sure this is relatively new but stand to be corrected if it isn’t. The strange thing is most sessions I never see it but occasionally you get a session where it appears frequently. The other thing I would be interested to know is if anyone has ever had a win where the 4 diamonds together on reel 6 have played.

Thats why i not play Bonanza any ohter BTG SLot anytime anywhere but to wait that long for a Feature is no Fun 2 me

It's a joke yeh I won tonight, but 99% of other time it would suck my balance dry and if I kept redepositing like I have done last 2 weeks you could easily lose 400/500 in one night at min stakes. One single win won't convince me this game has been tightened up big time. It's way too long to trigger a bonus.
 
The problem I have found is that most other slots with the odd exception are now seeming to also take an age to trigger a bonus and when it does drop they are invariably paying x10 - x50 90% of the time. Therefore even triggering a bonus after a lengthy wait very rarely puts you ahead for the session. At least the btg games have the potential to and do produce some big wins. Something I have lost confidence in with most other providers. There are a whole host of games that seem a shadow of their former selves.

Untold disaster stories
No win from players here (afaik) over 10,000x

Think i'll continue with keeping well away ;)
Click to expand...

I was thinking this yesterday, How many of us play and all the spins and no big 10,000x.
 
Yes given the volume of money that is being wagered through. Across all sites I bet you would be stunned by the true figure. I have a suspicion slots pay out pro rata or some sort of capping is in place relating to your stake. After playing a lot you notice there are certain landmarks on your account that are never surpassed.
 
this game is disgusting triggering a bonus. almost 800 spins again today still no bonus. big cascade drops and zillion GOL. aside from that one bonus last night which did pay well the game is ridiculous for finding a bonus.

You can really tell that this slot is bad. We have numerous members who bash away on this daily for at least a year and I barely ever see any really nice wins. Must be what 100 million spins done my members that post their wins?

Quite amazing given amount of massive wins on book of dead and dead or alive on this fourm but the same amount if not more play this game and not one of us has proper massive wins between us when you compare it to stake size.

This game had consistent bonuses that paid ok to good when it came out and slowly over time it's a balance drainer most sessions and triggering a bonus I swear I have never come across a game that can go so long without finding the bonus. If I had not hit the bonus last night I would have been over 2,500 spins without a bonus! This game becomes very tedious when your balance/deposit lasts for hours but you don't trigger a bonus you're not getting anywhere and just wasting time till it decides to drain the balance. I'd rather lose it quick then spend 4 hrs waiting for a bonus that won't come.
 
I do wish the game would skip straight to bust sometimes.

It'll keep you playing for an eternity, even granting you a stay of execution, only to spin you to death (again) without so much as a 'G' :mad:

It should save us all the hassle, after a deposit you click a dropdown box, which costs you your entire bankroll, and it tells you how many bonuses you're going to get!

Problem sorted
 
Had a wee play on this today with race money and whilst i managed to get two bonus's, they were not great, never ever had a great hit on Bonanza at VS in almost 45000 spins - pop back once in a while, lose again and off I pop again away from slots:)

How do you do it mate.
I blew another 200 Euro on it last night (Ok I lost only my 50 Euro deposit) but upped my balance to just over 200 Euro and decided to give Bonanza another go as my life time RTP on this slot at this particular casino is around 86%.
Played 1 Euro spins never more never less and it just ate it all away without a single FS trigger and a max win in base game of 48x.

I think I didn't even get GOL once!!

A miserable vile piece of shit.

You do well on it, quit on this monster while ahead! ;):)

He doesn't :p

He's been on the Rastafarian Old Holborn again :eek:
 
I'd get more pleasure out of a toothless hooker.

Worse part is every other slot bores the shit out of me. So as much as I rage quit this steaming turd I'm never ever tempted to play anything else. Netent and £4 big win bonuses or microgaming do they even still exist?? whole industry is stale and dull BGT must be cleaning up big time.

It's the crack cocaine of slots it seems. It is hard to play other games, at least low rolling....

Only reason no one minds is that minimum bet is set to 20p. If they made default spins £2 we'd all be in trouble :eek2:

idk why i have to chase 1 bonus. its weird most pay shit so i lose 100 chasing 1 crappy bonus just for my own sanity. this slot makes us do nutty things. almost like it knows it too, still haven't hit the fucker im down 120 today!
 
Well stupidly lost almost everything back I won yesterday close to £350 at 40p stake. Not one bonus and over 2,500 spins maybe 3,000. What I have experienced today just makes me believe its a slot that compensates you. I will chuck the odd tenner but im done playing this filth. its a cycle of lose hundreds one good win that wins half your losses back then takes it all and cycle goes on.

I did over 8000 consecutive spins at ladbrokes when they first got it, but I think I lost about £80 at 20p stake, so the base game was quite kind as I had £1600 worth of spins for £80 but I was never ahead once, thats the madness of this game, what other slot will give you that much turnover but its all for nothing. I don't know how you calculate these things but what would my rtp have been?

This goes to game design and fairness, where are the 1500-2000x wins after all these hundreds of millions of spins that get put through this game?
