Longest streak without a bonus triggered?

as the title says what's the longest streak you went without a bonus triggered that you kept track of?

I usually keep track when I play against a deposit bonus....just went through my worst one and yes i realize i should have stopped much sooner.

Power Of Thor Megaways (which i have had good luck with in the past):

1.00 bets. I finally got the bonus on the 1,331st spin. That isn't the worst part....the bonus amount was 26.40

"Thankfully" the amount I lost from start to finish was "only" 158.00. Could have gone worst I guess but certainly could have gone better.

Still above my deposit + bonus and 82% done so I am not too concerned at the moment....but I think i'll give up much sooner next time. if i wasnt playing against a deposit bonus and up i certainly would have moved on to a different game much sooner
 
'Worm king' on videoslots, have 9279 spins in my stats and the bonus has triggered three times, one of which took 3600+ spins, playing this game to me has become some kind of sick perversion just to see how many spins it takes, the game itself is kind of like a red tigerish knock off of reactoonz, with a max win of 1000x.
Once I finish the achievements it will not be reset and will never be played again.

Unquestionably on most of the Megaways tripe, so like others, on average well over 1000- 1500.

On the more serene games like MG's 9-liners (Adventure Palace etc) I may have on occasion toiled for over 1000 spins, which relatively speaking, is like going 5000 spins on Bonanza :p

I've never pursued High-Variance monsters, as -

a) I'm not insane

b) I'd rather play something more agreeable and

c) I don't have the budget to chase pipe dreams
 
Glad to see someone else struggles to bonus Power of Thor megaways, it regularly goes over 1000 spins without a bonus for me, but never seems to destroy the balance, which is the only reason stick with it. Base game is kind.

I've done over 2500 spins on Bonanza 4 times but always makes up for it with 3-4 bonuses close together after long streak without.

Worst was just short of 9000 spins on Twin Spin megagways, (across several casinos, days and deposits) and it paid 70x. Its strange as have no trouble bonusing it now, rarely goes 200 spins without a bonus, maybe its making up for it.
 
as well it took me 694 spins to trigger a bonus in Buffalo King Megaways with the "Double the bonus" enabled. horrible luck there.

i'm not sure if it's just my luck or the casino i'm playing (which is new to me) or both (Nordicbet).
 
8,000 spins in one session on bonanza, I just couldn't believe it. Once I was over 3,000 I expected its imminent arrival, so at that point it was hard to stop, I was deep into talking out loud to myself and to bonanza (well cursing and expletive laden rants) stubborn mode.

The financial damage wasn't too bad, around £160 on 20/40p spins. The following day I returned to ladbrokes and landed two +5 bonuses within the first 400 spins iirc.

Had a couple of 1300 -1500 spinners on raging rhino which triggered disbelief as afaik the average wait is 115. At that point if you have the funds it's tempting to raise your stake, but game crashes seem to become more likely too.

Wow what a hardcore streak
My record is "just" some 2200 spins without D and it felt like an eternity.
 
I've never done more than 600-700 spins on one slot. Because I simply don't believe that the slot would give me back my losses if the bonus comes in. So basically, i always do up to 300 spins and then run away. And if i see the slot is "hot", i usually spin till i see it starts getting "cold". There is nothing unique here, a typical way of gambling.

I've yet to hit a bonus on that Thor Megaways yet. Don't play it much but that's because it's so difficult to bonus and eats my balance like chocolate.
 
I have now about 11000 spins on Elk's Respins circus without freespins...just awful
I was just about to post and say the same thing about that slot too haha!

I done over 30.000 spins on it at various casinos and only had 2 features ever!

Make sure you're playing the 96% version, couldn't imaging how bad the 94% RTP model would be to bonus.

It always makes me laugh when finally get feature I'm presented with options n gamble, even when haven't lost much money to get it, I can't risk wasting the 60 minutes it takes to drop in, would be devistated if I lost.

A lot more difficult to do (in the U.K. at least) now that UKGC have BLOODY TAKEN AWAY AUTOSPINS THE DICKS!
 
controversial…. since pragmatic took there games down for them to remove the sounds for none wins they have been despicable on a next level. i have timed out accounts now but prior to that they were SHOCKING. i know prag can be a pain to bonus but this was taking to the next level. in particular chilli heat megaways which wasn’t too hard to bonus with the bonus chance. when it came
back after it’s makeover i went 870 spins without bonus and that may not seem a lot but this game has been changed. another great rhino megaways filth after it’s update what the hell they do when they took them down? same thing btg done in april to bonanza and extra chilli industry is filthy and im
glad i’ve timed out i know when i’m being robbed and games are unfair vs a fair loss

I don't want to be one of those 'slots are rigged' 'the casino's control the slots and win payouts' conspiracy types, and it could just be a horrendous streak of bad luck. However, it definitely feels like something has changed.

I rarely play the high volatility monsters where you expect to get a hiding, but since the autoplay removal started, in the last 2 months on the sites I play, even the older low-med volatility Microgaming and NetEnt games; with decent bonus consistency and extended playtime; refuse to bonus and destroy every deposit.

The big wins are still there, in the last 7 days I've had 1100x on Sticky Bandits 3 non-wildline retrigger and 800x on a Royal Mint enhanced feature, but the smaller/medium wins that keep your balance ticking over seem to have vanished and the frequency of bonuses are well below what was previously expected/witnessed, via slottracker and my own record keeping. In past 2 days, Happy Holidays has gone 1200 spins without bonusing (normal bonus frequency of 136 spins) and took 450x stake, and Drive has taken 400x stake (god knows how many spins) without a bonus. The randomness of slots can lead to these long runs outside of the norm but for the past 2 months, they never make up for it with a flurry (3-4 bonuses in 100 spins) of features and go from one bonus famine to the next.

I expect to lose, but it's the manner of losing lately that has really shocked me, no playtime at all on games that previously gave plenty.

When I used to play Bonanza I always found that if you went on a very long session with no bonus, the very next time you opened the game up the bonus would land almost immediately.
 
What about longest run for a tease, yesterday made the mistake of saying stay for one tease on Dog House megaways, 300x stake later (probably only about 500 spins cos played so bad) no tease and balance destroyed. Didn't even get the 'Nice' animation (15x I belive). It was awful.
Dog House Megaways is legit one of the worst games I’ve played. There’s people on here I’ve seen say that they get a 100x win every session they play…how?? I’ve played this game a fair few times to give it a chance but every session it’s a balance straight to 0 jobby.

Well. Ive had around 1000 "dead spins" before bonus. Now i havn't played casino for months beacause every spin i do is dead, or never goes above my deposit amount.

I think i had around 20 deposits on different casinos before i said to myself that "there is something strange". And then i quit. I usually won something to cash out every 5 th deposit.

Now it's not even fun. Everything is gone even on low stake after 15 minutes.
I have never played under 1 euro bet, but now it seems like i have to play .20 per bet in order to last for a while.

I usually deposited 120 euros each time some years ago, and did 1 euro spins. They could last for 2-3 days! Not touching slots again if its as bad as it is now.

Havn't deposited for 2 months now.. Cause i don't have the feeling anymore that it's possible to win. Its gone. Before, i knew that it was a pretty big chance that i could cash out something. Beacause it was.

Much much harder nowadays.

Yeah, that's true! And also everything goes to -- Would you like to play casino? Here are our prices:

30min at 0.5 stake: £80
1h: £150
2h: £250
etc...

In other words, nowadays we must pay to play the games without worrying about any winnings since it seems impossible to win anything playing these rip off games.

I'm having the same experience; nearly impossible to win lately.

This is by far the longest and worst losing streak I've ever had. In fact, I played yesterday 60e with 10c spins on different games and tried to wager the deposit only and see what's the balance after that. I got zero bonuses and had 23e left after wagering the 60e. And it has been like this almost a month now. I also feel like I don't even want to try anymore since all I do is lose.

What's happened to the games? Can it all be just a bad luck?
 
Candy Blitz Bombs. No bonus for 1hour 57mins of nonstop spinning. I almost lost my mind, luckily it was back and forth 1st hour and then I hit a decent bonus to get some money back... Now I hate slots for sure, I did not expect that is even possible.
 
Le bandit. Went 900 spins a few times between bonuses but yesterday hit 5 bonuses in 250 spins. Doubt il do that again

So annoying when 1 game gives you nice profits then you go to another game and instead of just cruising, it's absolutely crushes you and the balance built up over an hour goes in like 5 minutes

This is a point I will never understand:
With the nice winnings, why on earth don't you just go out and buy yourself something nice?
Instead, you change the slot in the hope that it will pay more, but get annoyed when this doesn't happen?
Apparently I'm not a good "gambler" if I take my winnings and run away with them very quickly ;-)

I would just scream and vomit all day if I lost thousands of euros...
 
Over time EVERYONE loses, but knowing when to cashout when ahead on a session, that is good :)

I'm also so crazy that I get very annoyed when I have to wait more than 24 hours for a withdrawal... but I still deposit again and again because I know that I will receive my winnings, even if the withdrawal takes a pointlessly long time!
Crazy, right?

@Webzcas And I thought you were being ironic when you said that I'm a good player because I run away with my winnings quickly, lol
 
So I missed 900 spins and hit 7 bonuses in 350 spins then missed 500 spins and hit 5 bonuses in 200 spins. Kind of crazy

1000 spins at £2 per spin on Fishin' Bonanza. No bonus and no win whatsoever. I kept depositing, just in a chase to hit the bonus, I didn't care how much it would pay I just wanted to know it still worked. Anyway I never got it and lost £2k.
