Hello,
Just a quick poll: which slots you prefer to play?
Just a quick poll: which slots you prefer to play?
I usually have this pattern Low V to build a roll to play High V games.
it really depends on what software platform you are playing at, usually for mg, mv slots can carry you thru the wrs but for rtg with an attached bonus you might as well go for high v ones since any of the supposed low v. slots can be h. variance and wont give you a feature for 500-600 spins.the same for rival recently where you get no features in ages for low variance slots like cleo' coins, future fortunes and metal detector.
Fairly new to online slots but how can you tell what is High, Medium, Low Variance?
i cannot define these as well as other guys but if you tell me what your favourite slos are maybe i can explain.

Generally speaking, slots with stacked wilds are high variance due to the possibility of lining up a load for a mega-win, also the less win-lines a slot has (or you select) the higher the variance, so IMO:I play Thunderstruck II, LOTR, Break the Bank, Queen of Hearts, Party Island.
Thanks for your help
Party Island: Never heard of it...

Basically speaking:
High Variance = Wins are not very frequent but the wins are quite big.
Low Variance = You get loads of wins, but they are mostly quite small.
But these are only generalisations, because what influences the variance most on the most popular 5-reel bonus video slots is the bonus itself. On most slots probably 30 - 40% of the return comes from the bonus rounds; hit loads & you'll be quids in, but dry spells can decimate your bankroll.
Also of course, some bonus features have high return potential, and some are quite low which also effects variance.

Thunderstruck II: Low/Medium
LOTR: High
Break the Bank (AGAIN): Very High
Queen of Hearts: High

Not at all!i could understand that a game with a massive jackpot game would be high variance, right? but does this mean that a game with a smaller jackpot would be med variance and a game without jackpot would be low variance?
