Microgaming slots vs RTG slots

[blacklabrador]

No, I didn't.
It was Christmas 2008 and in a moment of insanity I took a 400% PHANTOM bonus on a $500 deposit - so I started playing with $2,500 facing a ludicrous $50,000 WR! Hence the "High-Rolling" spins.
Did get over $1,000 up at one point (as you can see in that screenshot), but finally (in FEBRUARY) my bank dwindled away to $Zero just $425 short of half-way through the wagering.

Still, in the same month I took a 125% Phantom bonus on a $200 deposit at Irish Luck and cashed out $2,550 - so it was all good!

I dont even claim bonuses just for that reason on RTG sites. However, on riverbelle, I have 2 bonuses a week for 100% match up to $50 and they do have playthrough requirements, however, I can sacrifice my bonus if i get up to the $350 cashout requirement ( minus my bonus money) and just go ahead and cash out.

Example, if i have $40 in bonus money to still play through, and I hit for $500, I cash out $500, they take their $40 in bonus money back and I make out for $460 Love that casino.

My list of best RTG slots...
Incan Goddess
Honey to the Bee
T-Rex

Worst RTG...
Cleopatra's Gold
Achilles
Aladdin
Prince of Sherwood Forest

Best MG...
Kathmandu
Frankencash
Witch Doctor
Kung Fu Monkey

Worst MG...
Break the bank again
Supe It Up (although, if you are lucky enough to get a bonus spins, the 6X payout can make a decent win)
Polar bash (I've had sessions where 400 - 500 spins with no free spin/ bonus sessions)

I like to play a variety of games on both platforms. I have to say, the few times I have been able to play at All Slots USA, the slots have been extremely tight (might go 5,6,7 spins before you hit a pay line of 1/3 the bet amount). And I finally had a good month last month with RTG (had 3 decent withdrawals, first time in about 7 months), but this month I'm back to playing at a money pit.

Ohhhh I forgot about Prince of Sherwood, what a piece of RUBBISH that game is

No, not sure which game that is.

Tiger Treasure is the one that the paylines go backwards too. I don't know how to explain it. You have to get 3 blue chinese symbols in either the first 3 reels or last 3 reels, they can't be in reels 1,3,5.

The tigers aren't expanding, but sometimes you get rows of them in the bonus round which pays nicely, especially with a red diamond.

I would put up a quick screenshot, but they don't work for me anymore.

I know which one you're talking about now. I have no idea how well that one plays. I've never played it long enough to find out.... How about the MG rat game? I've won some decent money in that dropping record bonus. I usually do ok with Diamond Dozen. I got 3 white diamonds on free spins once with a 20 cent bet and got 6 x 8 x 10 x 20c And I think it doubled it because of the free spin multiplier. I finished that round with about 200 bucks on a 20 cent spin. lol

I've had some really good hits in the RTG Big Shot in the past. If you can get the 10 or 15 free spins. Seems the last bloody spin hits nothing everytime though. I don't play it much anymore. I wonder why. I think sometimes you just move on and forget to go back.

I usually only get 2x2x3, that seems to be the norm, so if that is on a 20c bet, it only pays $2.40. for some reason that game pays better for me playing $1 and the very few times I have played $2 it payed very well.

I have played that game a few times and liked it, but like you said, I forget about certain games, I kinda stick to a few of my favs, on every platform. What rat game?

...
2) Golden Lotus. Only aggravating thing is you never seem to pick that damn 100X bet and its there about 80% of the time. I have only hit it twice...

There was a post somewhere here about those picks just being eye candy. Meaning whatever you pick was already predetermined.

I've never picked a 100x and have seen 2 of them sometimes on the same bonus round...

Ratpack. 30 line game.

I agree with you on Centre Court. I play that game all the time ever since its release, and 200 spins without a feauture used to be exceptional.
My last session at GoWild I went over 1200 spins, no feauture.
Not in one go, did 300 spins, changed games, won some on another game, did another 300, and so on.
The session before that one went the same, also about 700-800 spins, no tennisballs to be seen anywhere.
I used to say the game is low/medium variance, now its high variance.

Still tend to believe its a run of bad luck, the game has been very good to me in the first year, now its taking the money back..

BDBA has always been a bitch, I love that game, but don't chase anything on it, or it will eat you alive.
Just play 100-200 spins on it and hope you get lucky, if not, quit.
Got 4 valves yesterday for 20 free spins, got another 12 during free spins, 32 free spins total, paid 5x bet because of 2xJ + wild on the last spin.
But if it hits, its usually cashouttime!

Hi All,

MG

Avalon (Best hit at 20 buck a spin - 5-7k) - Anyone else play this?
Santa Paws (Best Hit @ 20 Bucks a pop - about 4k)
Isis (Best hit at about 25bucks a pop - about 6k)
Centre Court - (Best hit at 18 buck a pop - 8k)
Deck the Halls - (Best hit at 15 buck a pop - 19k)

RTG

Diamond Dozen (best Hit at 20 bucks - 1.2k)
Cleopatras Gold (Best hit at 20 bucks - 1k)
That other sea game is not too bad either.... lol

Well, i can tell you that Centre Court / Isis / and Deck the Halls are mean when they can be......

My best overall hits during one bonus feature were all at MG

First - Thunderstruck 38k win after free spins (Bet of about 45bucks)

Second - Progressive hit on Cash Splash - 29k (3 buck bet )

Third - Jolly jester (25 buck bet) - 25k

Fourth - Deck the Halls (15 buck bet) - 19k

Tally Ho ( 18 Buck Bet) - 18k

I have won a few others over 10k, but the above are the most noteworthy...

RTG has not given me a decent hit over 5k

Wow nothing over 5k on RTG? I say stick with it, you are a high roller and if you hit some of the hits I have betting .50 - $2.00, you would crush a few machines. I have had nice hits on T-rex, Texas Tycoon, Golden Lotus, and Field of Green.

 

[pmhcfc]

Very interesting indeed. Timing is everything when it comes to slots. The twister slot i was referring to though is triple twister on RTG, is that the one you hit? I know MG has some kind of tornado slot too so just wondering. Congrats on the win! I am still looking for someone that has won something decent on that green light RTG slot, THAT would be shocking.

As for Katmandu, my father loves that machine, he has had some nice hits on it.

The Twister slot I speak of (lol) is a 15-liner at MicroGaming - The bonus's (3 or more TV's) rarely pay fantastic but they can do, and have done for me

I play all these games but my favorites are totally different.
RTG bigger payouts when you hit bonus rounds. New microgaming for US players basically sucks. Only playing at mini-vegas group and win here and there.

Playing max on 10 cents can make u or break ur bankroll quickly... Pity it ends in the latter 90% of the time... Ahh well ... when u do hit it, its NICE

Ive played at Bodog, but they seem to be independant of RTG - I didnt see T-Rex, Golden Lotus etc....

Ive played at Lucky Red and CWC, but they dont do withdrawals to CC's (Visa) so i don't deposit there... Using a web wallet is ok, but then i gotta hassle about getting it back to my Bank account or Visa... Any idea of which E-wallet offers this?

I've played that twister game in the very early stages of me trying MG ... It used to be good, didnt play it much after i discovered other decent games... whats the best win u've had on the slot?

It does seem to go in stages where you can hit the bonus round several times in not many spins at all, and it does seem to do a fair bit of re-triggering. However, in my experience, it's more about the amount of playtime/bonus rounds you get. It's the only MG slot I've played where I've never had to endure more than 300 spins without a bonus round- and even then, going 250+ spins without a bonus seems rare.

In relation to best wins, (remembering I'm mainly a low roller) I won in the region of £220 from one bonus round, with the stakes @ 45p if memory serves. Not my best win in money back terms but best win in respect of the odds. The aforementioned win being in the region of x500.

That is still an excellent return for the amount wagered... Thanks

All RTG slots I play at Inetbet suck these days. Microgaming (CR) slightly better but not much. Can't even get a bonus round at Inet that pays literally anything.

What hassles exactly?

I'm in the UK but play most casinos in $US, using Neteller to deposit & withdraw.
When I want to get cash out of Neteller it just takes a minute to request a wire direct into my bank account. This takes about 7 days to process and incurrs a 1.75% fee - but it's no hassle.

I would recommend trying club world, I deposit $50 almost every day and have been a member for one month and have cashed out more than I deposited as of now. Latest win was cashing out $650 on Ronin , got some nice bonus rounds with the 25 spin feature, and golden lotus as well. Golden lotus can be brutal when its cold though, so gota be careful with that one.

Any recommendation for the games at BoDog? I know they are not part of RTG, but their games are similar...

I currently Play that Triple Toucan, Cleopatra, Crystal Waters, Diamond Dozen ... are their games limited?

I wish i could say that bout some of the Casino's i play at... My returns are terrible..

What bet size do you normally play?

I have a pattern. I buy in with $50 and spin for .$50 a spin anytime I have .50-$49.00 balance, $1 a spin anytime I have $50-$99, $2 a spin anytime i have $100-$199, and $5 or $6.25 (depending on the game) anytime I have $200-$499. I cash out anytime I get over $500 (for the most part).

Keep in mind I just joined this site one month ago however, using this system, I have profited on Riverbelle the last 2 years, but that is also counting some very hot nights on the craps table at $30-$200 a roll.
