Comments Welcome Bonanza thread!

I wanna know where Dazza is playing?

Why is it such a secret????

My cascade pause senses aren’t picking up the answers.

My guess is that Nick has adjusted the balance booster on the BTG site so Dazza can try and rope in more poor sods! While not risking a penny.

Sounds like many an affiliate.

All hail the King of the barely 500x's, Bonanza!

Amazing how times change eh?.....

A couple of decades ago, a child or grandchild would ask "Mom, Dad, what's Bonanza?" , to which they'd answer "Its an old 70's tv drama series, quite enjoyable at times"

In a couple of decades time "Great granddad, what's Bonanza"

"Its the fucking abomination that had me confined to this rubber room all those years back"

"It's the reason you get a 10yr old Dacia and not a brand new Mercedes for your 18th birthday my son."
 
it was a bastard to bonus but now it’s just insanity going up to a week without a bonus is not normal when you solely play this for a week how is that normal and it happens all the time. it’s playing worse than ever. find it funny the bonus buys coming and now the triggering of a normal bonus is a thousand times harder to land even tho it was already hard to bonus.
 
As much as I've had some of my best hits from the base game, I would have happily forfeited hours of grinding and bonus chasing, and just bought the damn thing, back in the day. Not withstanding the fact that players can lose £££thousands in pursuit of GOLD anyway.

Still miffed as to its inclusion now however, in light of their culling, for player protection. Either BTG want to aid players' enjoyment five years after the fact, or they don't care and just want their games to show off their best features in double quick fashion, to be seen by as many people as possible ?

I like to think they're doing it to make the industry a better, more inclusive space ?

it’s shit that we can’t buy them and have to make do with the coin feature
 
In the last week or so I netted 4 +5's, all memorable for their number of dead spins, the one that took the biscuit was a 20x er. Also playing at jackpotjoyless I was struck by how similar all the bonuses looked, small amounts of megaways <5000, and lots of mixed up symbols that never quite connected. It was definitely 'here we go again!:mad:' territory as each bonus played out.

Also, you go months without a plus 5 and then they all seem to come in a week/few sessions. One point about 3 months ago i reckon i had more plus 5's than not over about 3 weeks and yeah, bar the odd exception, it's just an excuse to fire 5 dead at you.

I get more worried on 22: up until about 5 months ago i never had a 22 spin stinker and then i got my first one: 35x on 2 quid. Next one came the next day and i thought it would be redemption but, no, 52x.

That's a dreaded situation, a high stake and you feel very lucky to get what potentially looks a beaut, only for the blocking carts and useless wilds to turn up in force.

I started to lose the normal excitement/hope when seeing a bonanza GOLD land, and in the base game I began to nod off between spins and have strange bonanza daydreams :eek:
 
Everyone's had funky Bonanza dreams, that's par for he course. Like the time I played it so much I dreamt I'd won £15 Billion, yes BILLION, only to wake up to the realization that's ridiculous, as we know the game's capped at 4500x
 
100% something wrong/different with the Sky version. Strange how it never used to produce scatters in the 117………A bit of posting on CM about it and miraculously, they were suddenly seen by everyone.:rolleyes:

It would be interesting to run a comp the same as the 4th year anniversary one. If it ran for a month and you managed to land GOLD, you would be guaranteed top 3.:laugh:

Just answer me one question honestly, BTG.

When a game disappears for a “patch”, what exactly is being “patched”?

I think you have to tag the rep with an '@'. They don't respond to questions over many years otherwise :thumbsup:

Money leaking out?

I jest - it's the sound. You know, the sounds that sound the same both post and pre-patch :p
 
Can't fault the sound. Most think it's just a random loop of nonsensical jingles, but let the bonus play out long enough there's all sorts in there, including bells. Not forgetting the zings and doinks when hitting the big mammas!

Gives you an idea of the filth I’ve had to endure recently. It’s all on 20/40/60p stakes and all thanks to bonanza.

I’d expect to run the game 24/7 on those stakes and not lose that much ffs.

Game is a disgrace, utter trash.

I welcome @BTG Rep to post my stats at SunVegas for the last week. It will give some of the readers an insight into the absolute shite, this slot now churns out.

It’s not fit for purpose and just proves that providers can get away with robbery. I’ve had issues with the site before and stupidly thought perhaps, I would get some recompense. Got the complete opposite. 4 sessions that beggar belief. Could you confirm @BTG Rep, that I deposited the best part of £1,000 without seeing a bonus? What do you think about that? Don’t tell me I got unlucky, that would be a further insult.

I am normally a pretty mellow person but shite like this makes me want to spew.

mate i am in the same boat, this week alone deposits are £1020 or there abouts and not one bonus this week just this pile of absolute horse shit. also a distinct lack of GOL so not even being teased i have played on betvictor will hill bet365 even the gamesy sites megaways casino and double bubble bingo and not a sniff i thought maybe spreading deposits about would land one but no chance in hell. i even had to check the versions of them all cos i thought there’s been a update for sure but no still saying april was last update. my question is how do they do this with the bonus frequency without taking it down this is what i don’t trust how they can clearly tweak it. i also don’t understand how dazza is hitting bonuses on this and on highish stakes as well no offence to you dazza. i don’t care about the comp i’ve wasted grands on this rigged filth and the btg rep hasn’t even got the decency to answer any of our questions the contempt they show for customers is wrong IMO. they’ve lost the plot and i don’t think btg can come back

That’s another thing, I have noticed that even if you change Casino. I can play at 8 in a day and each one plays exactly the same. Where it feels like the results are being pulled from a pool that contains nothing but dead spins and the odd x1-5.

That is the thing, I can’t have at any price. You could not, make 25 deposits at 8 different Casinos 2 days running and get the exact same gameplay at each, if it was random.

At least a few years back, providers tried to make slots appear random but not now. It’s just a blatant in your face, rip off.

It would fit how you can go months & ££ssss on putting money into online play, not just btg games but all of them,

You can hit feature after feature with just a few spins then go months of hitting nothing, doubt it's random at all, according to my overall experience.

Seems it would balance over a period of time.

Worst crooks in the business are 100% evolution gaming live games, not a chance these are not fixed despite what we're told.

I have spent before nearly 2k to get a bonus. I have spunked 8k in one month on this game (SkyVegas last Feb) with just one w/d of 500-ish. I am a substantial 5-figure sum down on the game since it came out. Recently I lost in 8/9 sessions until I made a recovery of most of it with 3 smallish winners. I think you need to watch my latest video when it goes live if you think I 'run hot' on it. It's unimaginable filth. I have had more than one affiliate manager threaten to close my accounts with them due to the language, rants and content of my Bonanza videos. (This is why I no longer do any branding on them, to keep personal play separate from business.) I think people get a slanted view because I used to simply just show the action at one time, not all the crap and dead play. So now you get every spin, which makes for long and mostly boring videos but gives a more realistic impression of the game's behaviour.

I have seen 15 features from an original £50 deposit turning into a 6-7 hour session and good cash-out. I regularly post sessions where I don't see a single feature. My 'strategy' if you will is 125x bet starting which should on average award 0.95 features, if I double then play on a bit on higher bets - this can lead to some decent balances bust but the aim is to get to a point where I can play on and fall back on the double-deposit leaving point. It's risky, but I've found it to be the least harmful method of playing it.

As possibly, along with a few others here, one of the most experienced players of this beast I have learned a few things. It can go on prolonged bad runs (my record was 13 daily desposits at Jackpot Joy with NO features or w/d's) and conversely profound 100% plus (but shorter) runs. If you remember my older videos at Casumo in euros whan I had that incredible good run and made nearly 13k euros in 4 weeks, winning almost every time? I had a good summer last year after an appalling winter/spring when I was over 11k down, getting nearly all of it back. The 50-video summer series I made had something like 24/27 sessions busted before it turned for me, so a long bad run followed by a slightly less-long good run. It doesn't matter where you play it, what 'version' you play, if you stay at it long enough anywhere you'll have the same approximate outcome - a net loss.

P.S. If you read the views of players in this thread, it's clear there some misunderstanding about the construct of the game - it has a huge number of permutations on the reels and very high volatility so it won't play like DoA2 or Jammin' Jars and other high-variance 'lottery slots'. It's a different thing altogether so getting runs of tens of thousands of spins with a mere 60-70% RTP is perfectly normal for the maths, as are shorter but very lucrative blocks of spins. I sometimes wish I'd never started the bastid thread in all honesty. Nevermind winning a bloody Tesla, I could've bought one with what I've spent. Seriously.

Okay, so here’s the latest utter shitstorm this slot has produced.

Yesterday, I think the game has to produce at some point, it can’t continue in the same mode.

WRONG. Deposited £400.

Nothing but utter trash and not a single bonus until the last deposit. I eventually hit GOLD (playing £2) and thankfully it pays x200 to get my money back, nothing more.

Tonight, I think that can’t happen again, I must see a few bonuses surely.

WRONG. Deposited £400. Played 40p-£2 spins at 7 different Casinos. Not one decent win. Only one deposit went north and that was only to £80. All the others were ripped to zero in record time. Quickest being 3 minutes.

And, yes you guessed it, not a single fucking bonus. I don’t know if @BTG Rep are still responsible for this game or whether Evolution now have the say but whoever it is, I am calling you out, for blatantly rigging this game and purposely programming it to tilt players.

I kept convincing myself, it must turn but it’s played like this for months now. Funnily enough since the second Evolution took over. It’s shocking with a capital F. I am done with this rigged bullshit. Getting out while I can. @irish-ranger got out at the right time, fair play to him.

I don’t mind losing, hate being shafted, end of.

I did mate and honestly it's the best thing I done 1 year now and don't miss it or gambling remotely.
No longer sitting staring at a phone for up to 12hrs plus a day deposit after deposit and becoming an antisocial prick at the same time.
 
Probably not the desired effect the rep was going for when starting this thread.

What started as a tribute to this game's 'legacy' has soon turned into Reasons Why I Think Bonanza's Rigged Filth

Mind you, the rep doing his usual BTG rep thang, using whatever site that's before them that afternoon to shill their substandard, ripoff product (hint to rep: this is Casinomeister)

Sad thing is this comp will attract the freeloading posse that likely don't even play Bonanza, or contribute to the the Bonanza thread - think of them as hibernating at other times!

So once again, no idea where the rep's gone, or why/ what this thread was supposed to achieve, other than to use CM to shill the game and then go on a nice break, as they always do. Aloha!

Saved by Reactooz2 last night from another mullering session. I must have went 500 quid in deposits over the last week with one 32x bonus.

Kinda worse it’s not even tilting deposits but just a steady stream of 50s that you only really notice when you add them up

Bonanza isn’t rigged filth, it’s always played the way people are describing it. It just seems it’s taken some people longer than others to see it.

Tonight’s session was particularly enjoyable.

3 hrs of solid play.

You can only imagine my excitement when the 2, yes 2 cascade chances I was presented with in that very enjoyable 3 hours gave the inevitable pause to let me know slightly in advance that the wait wasn’t worth it.

Now anybody that wants to come on here and argue against the fact that I was not wildly entertained by Bonanza for those 3 hrs will have me to deal with.

My hard earned graft at Cheltenham that yielded an ok profit as a result of bookies throwing me free bets due to the very fact at most of them I’ve wasted days, weeks and months rowing the fuck out of bonanza was of course donated back to the route cause.

Few freebies left for tomorrows activities which will hopefully lead to a small raise or 2 which of course will be invested straight back into the worlds greatest slot on the off chance a feature may grace me with its presence.

8 hrs of studying form through the night so I can see the hard work evaporate within 30 minutes is something I find tremendously satisfying.

I mean who wouldn’t?
 
The problem is, that it hasn’t always played this way by a long chalk.

I barely went a single day without a bonus in 4 years. You only have to look back through the thread to see that I would often hit between 5 and 10. Now, you can go days without seeing one. The game just feels dead.

I am not going through all the changes, I have posted them enough but anyone who thinks it hasn’t changed is severely lacking in observational skills.

N.B. For those playing at Sky, I can accept that you may not have noticed a change. It’s simply, always been shite there.
