New Slot Announcement Bonanza by Big Time Gaming

[Jono777]

No Bonanza for me today, can't afford it, being stuck low rolling DoA ...again

Couldn't find a 'D' there either

 

[dunover]

not played it today. can fuck off. games on the fiddle. 17 bonuses under x100 has broken me.

will play it at midnght for willhill bonus but other than that can get fucked.

I did once go 24 bonuses without seeing over 100x. Then I got 1100, 700, 450 and 50x in the next 4.

 

[steveh35]

Deposited £20 £5 bonus, Crapped on again 12 out of 13 dead spins to start then GOLD 25x and managed half an hour before it was gone

 

[myke35]

At last she blew! :-D 251x

 

[Playford7]

Not played for a while on anything with a real deposit, just the free offers from WH, caddell etc..
have zero desire to play bonanza, as great and fun as it can be and hold your balance the end result (unless you get daz’s Affy rtp) Lol is usually as mediocre as a Lib Dem speech.
Thursday I’m going to have a decent punt and go solely Mg and old school netent..
BTG won’t get me!!!.

 

[orion]

so... on a single casino I reached 9998 spins without never hitting a feature.
actually I have € 0,19 in it.
I asked for a comp of 21 cents in order to do TWO spins and reach 10,000 spins (without a feature).
While at the phone with the operator with the above request, she told me "well, it's normal, you had a big win some times ago".

Guys, I am done with it.
I am done with online casinos.
Time for a long break.
Adios (y muy buenas).

 

[lockinlove]

Dont make me go deposit to show you guys how to win on this....because I might just do it.

maybe

but probably wont

That is awful mate. Can I ask if that was one session on one day or many sessions over several days?

 

[goatwack]

Everyone knows not to ask casinos for 21 cents. They're not made of money you know

 

[orion]

That is awful mate. Can I ask if that was one session on one day or many sessions over several days?

I am (I WAS) playing Bonanza everyday. Several deposits per day. These 9998 spins are in the last week.

And as a side note, the answer of the casino (where I asked a comp of 21 cent in order to reach 10.000 spins) has been NO.
I can understand it. It's a fortune.
the losing streak ends at 9998 then.

Wow I would name and shame them but that’s me. Not as dignified when losing as you. That is a shocking amount of spins to play without 1 feature. I hope you were not playing to high a stake that would be the only consolation you could take from it. Incidentally the casino said you had a big win recently so it’s to be expected. You can only expect something if it’s not random. Take it easy man I hope you feel better soon as I can imagine how you feel right now.

This slot has taken me for best part of 7 grand in the last two weeks on £2 bets. Its dead cold everywhere. And still we are told there is no artifical divergence of rtp, whether linked to the player or across all casinos as a whole (bet you a +5 feature its the last one).

I think not.

Yes +5 features those were the days. I have had no big wins on it lately and yes it seems dead everywhere. I don’t know how it’s done only that it is.

If you asked me a month ago - right you deposit a grand and play, I would expect a few features - maybe 3-4 at least.

If you asked me now I would sincerely hesitate even getting a single feature.

I’m not sure how it works either, but yes its clear as day.

1 in 450 chance of a feature.

10,000 spins without a feature. Any mathematicians can work out the odds of that?

 

[dunover]

1 in 450 chance of a feature.

I dunno, but on scale it's about equivalent to my 1253 spins on Thunderstruck 2 once at 32red without a feature, one which I'd expect to have had 10-12 times in that amount of spins. Actually, pro-rata it's even worse. You should have had 20. The less frequent an event is though, the more likely it is to deviate from the average though. But it's bad either way.

 

[nutnut]

This game has ruined many lives that I'm sure of.

Avoid it unless bonus money or something, as it is on the take for christmas. How so many players have either not triggered a bonus or when triggered way beloew avg x100 bonus he claims is ridiculous.

How many turkeys do they need for god sake.

 

[goatwack]

If this were any old regular Joe slot I'd be wary of these statistics, but as it's Bonanza and we still know very little about it truly, I'd not count my chickens yet

 

[paul7388]

But again we have no idea how many players trigger the bonus.

There are a few dozen people posting on forums out of hundreds of thousands probably more people playing it each day.

Just no way anyone will know how often bonus is triggering at moment.

If it helps i played 100 spins on it other day and hit 2 bonuses. Not great wins but got balance up to £60 from £20 in those hundred spins. But left it and went back to chilli to get buy in down a bit so when i got the £25 bonus an WH it would get buy down to about zero so i get a free bonus lol

i swear to moses when I used to bang away on this thing it had certain periods where the returns were terrible everywhere for a good couple of weeks. it would play very very different!

 

[myke35]

I got 2 bonuses tonight within about 10 spins of each other. 1st was dead & the 2nd paid 100x. I guess it's at least giving me some of my losses back over the past few weeks.

Lol but it’s random!.. I done 700 spins on the JATB clone Halloween jack a while back.
I’ve also done as mad as this may seem 800 spins on wolf cub and no bonus.
I get where the frustration comes from, but in a way it does actually tell you it’s ‘random’

You should have a mma fight with the CEO of btg. If he wins then he wins.. if you win then btg start being honest.
Just a thought

 

[MartiniMan]

Adding my observations from a mountain of 100's of thousands of spins on Bonanza. What I noticed (when I could play it), the game went through extended cold periods, these could last a week but sometimes a lot longer. The most spins without a triggered bonus was around 4,700. Average spin AU$5. This slot can kill a bankroll lightning-fast if your not getting the bonus or at least getting some decent non bonus wins. What I did notice though, and it seemed, there was large reduction in the massive payline wins.

Yes I played Bonanza a lot at VS, and yes it is a high variance slot. In the early days it was not uncommon to hit the massive pay lines. But as the months wore on, these seemed to occur less and less, to the point where one hit, I considered it an oddity rather than the norm.

Ever since I hit a AU$8.8K bonus win (10x with a lot of diamonds) on a AU$5 spin, I could never seem to hit anything decent again on Bonanza. Not even a few 1,000 dollars.

 

[pinnit2014]

Bonus coming in a bit but lord they’re shite. Last two last night on 2 quid and 10 and 46x. Two on a quid came in 10 spins and 6x and 96x. Games capped at 100 x bonus rounds for me

Saving up my money until next month then, going to be rich come beginning of 2019!

 

[nutnut]

why when you hit a good base game win does it spin and end in split second. speeds spin up so much you miss it. annoying.

 

[snorky510238]

I have said this many times. Sit there on any slot that’s cold and it will murder you. If you start with a balance of 100 x stake (£100 x £1 spins) and you lose it you have to walk away. If the average bonus is x100 it’s very unlikely you will get ahead if you persist. My rule is never get in for more than 75x stake and I rarely go that far. If you sit there relentlessly feeding this beast the day will always come when it rips your arms off and probably sooner than later. I deposited £20 at 40p spins and hit a bonus within 50 spins paid x80 then 2 ways of 6oak diamonds for a x100 base hit. Then had a few drops for the D but missed about 4 times. Then it dropped and +5. Can’t complain but with 6 spins left it retriggered only to kill them straight off with 6 dead spins.

Once I hit something like this I play 50 more spins max just in case it’s THE NIGHT but history tells me it’s unlikely to pay anymore so I walk away.

It’s ‘random’ is a very convenient way of excusing any abnormalities.

 

[theapple]

I swear bonanza suffers from personality disorder :/

Sometimes you could play it for weeks without your balance going up or down and other times you start with 200x and in you are done in 270 spins. Its unreal how different it plays at times

 

[snorky510238]

I wonder why that is?. Ah I see.

 

[Nate]

Oh look 315 pages and people still complaining they are getting raped

This piece of junk is like no other. The only BIG wins like with their new slot .... will be on the PC shared by their entire office (Including the CEO) back at BTG...

It wouldn't surprise me if a lot of those screenshots made their way to the forums, this time a little more discreetly.

For the record, I played their Gimped version / Developer version and force triggered 127 Free Spins. Got the total up to a 100x multiplier with maybe 40 spins remaining.

All I managed was 8000x bet ... I gave up.

I have a player who high rolls quite a bit. We chat from time to time and he has been super upset at how he has been losing. He sent me a rant about his play and I asked him what he had been playing. Bonanza was the answer .... so I told him to STOP playing it. Ofcourse, you cant convince someone what to play.

The long and the short is he had a bit of a good run about 2 months ago on 10 and 20 Euro spins and since then the slot has absolutely raped him. His RTP sits above 100% still BUT he actually dropped his betsize to between 4 & 5 to accommodate this 'Slump' in the RTP. It hasn't helped much... He claims that no matter what bet size, or what time of day he plays, he struggles to trigger a feature and also if he finally does, the vast majority are paying under 30x for him.

Check the RTP screenshot he sent across:

In any event, just reaffirms my theory that this piece of crap is somehow compensated or functions like an AWP. Irrespective of who says what, I've played this slot more than enough to see the trends and patterns. Call it random, call it the RNG, call it whatever, this is one shady piece of work.

Nate

 

[Dinahnana]

I am starting to agree with Nate here. Bonanza is my favourite slot. I have played close to 500k spins and it does seem weighted. I think I am going to give it a long break. The highest betsize win I have managed in all my spins is 1270x. This slot for me regularly goes 2k without feature and then get a crappy feature. Sometimes I get a cluster of 3 features within 200 spins after a very long dry spell. It does feel like a weighted AWP slot. Need to find a new favourite slot I can play that has great potential.

 

[pinnit2014]

Base games better than the bonus at the moment. Between the two quid and quids bonus’s all coming quickly together I naively expected a withdrawal. Er, nah.

To be fair I did go and play Immortal Romance on minimum bets as a change. 100 gone in a jiffy. Secrets of the Stones. No to that either

Just wasn’t my hour/day

Out of interest what’s you rtp? If you don’t mind me asking.

 

[Dinahnana]

Between 95 and 96%

 

[theapple]

This is unreal. Now most people will say its amazing hit (and on its own, it really is) but... it was my first and ONLY 20c spin this session. Prior to that ive made around 200 spins on 60c - 1 and it was kinda dead so i lowered it for one spin on 40c, dead too, decided to play ONE 20c spin and i hit 250x. Mind you it pretty much recovered my losses for that session but it really was a wtf moment

To be completely fair ive had my fair share of decent bonanza hits on first spin after i change betsize (earlier today i changed from 20c to 80c and first spin i hit 80x) so thats why i sometimes change betsize when its been dead for a few dozens of spins. This time it bit me in the a$$, i guess Also, i had 2 cascades that paid over 100x each and thats something ive seen first time too

It is compensated, a random slot - a slot will not play that badly, for that long, across all casinos, for all the regular players without being so.

“Oh but its still technically random, its still possible to get a bonus” - yes

Make that seven grand lost now on £2 bets - I give up. Someone let me know when its showing some signs of life - i’d rather set fire to my money at the moment.

So not to far off the mark at all to be fair.

yeah tbf for all its faults, bonanza does good job at staying near (or a tad above) its stated rtp

spins :
3,735,911

RTP 97.54%
SRP 96.87%

 

[lockinlove]

had some freespins on a site. Built it up a bit.... decided to throw it on here and just rip the balance on $2 and get back to work.

Hit GOLD. Not one ounce of excitement when it dropped in.

Paid $18.

God I miss this slot!!!!

 

[myke35]

Maybe I'm just imagining this but I keep thinking the sounds & graphics of the reels are ever so slightly out of synch during dead spins & perfectly in synch on the winning ones? I notice the odd exception but when it feels out of synch it feels like I'm on a loser. This is on the base game.

 

[dunover]

I'll give you guys a bit of affiliate RTP next time you play.

I must be the only person significantly up on the bugger to date.

Yes , this has been there since the beginning. Not even remotely immersion-breaking or anything.

Try as they might, BTG just can't seem to get to the root of this complex problem, despite numerous updates. But rest assured, it's right up there on their list of priorities!

 

[pinnit2014]

Not a 50000x but given it was last spin with 8p left after the spin, and first 100x plus in ages in the bonus, i live to DOA another day. BTG have mind wiped us to the point where we go yay, a 100 x

 

[Dinahnana]

So not to far off the mark at all to be fair.

This is across all casinos bar a few so I would agree with you if it was just one casino. Sine the slot is SUPPOSED to be random and not compensated it shouldn't track my play across all casino sites. Maybe I should have been more clearer in my response.

I would expect that RTP if all 500k spins were at one casino but that is result from spins over more than 10 casinos. So I guess my results can agree with Nate's statement that he feels this is a compensated slot.

 

[smart_croatia]

I dont get why would Slotsmillion replace old bonanza with "new"one, i had old one in my favourites and now its gone, i hope its not for lower RTP

 

[aceking123]

Osulle is this from a static ip address ???
