Screen Shots that Suck!

35 spins with NO stars appearing...
Then I got one on reel 2 - hit another on reel 4 during the respin - so a total of 3 spins with stars in play...
See what I won?
:mad:

It there's one good thing you could do ... stay away from Starrbrust. I have probably lost more big balances there than on any other NetEnt Slot... Pays seriously poor.

It tends to be an "all or nothing" slot for me.
e.g. After my shot above, in the next 20 spins I went on to hit 2 wins with stars which were 35 and 40 x my bet - that took me from €45 down to €20 up.
I carried on playing & quit on evens - which is OK for me as I'm doing the WR on a bonus.

When I was playing another bonus in June/July I played StarBurst 6 times - made decent profit 4 times, even once & lost once; total +£365
So I'm not complaining really - you can't win 'em all!

Some may argue that these shots doesn´t belong in this thread, especially since one of the qualifies for the winner screenshots thread, but I disagree. The first one is in freespins mode with a 5x multiplier and a moneybag on the first reel would have been welcome.

Having not had much luck on Starburst with real cash, I set about it with fun money a couple of weeks ago.

Playing at 1EUR per spin, with a stop trigger of 50xstake or 1000 spins passed.

It's managed to get to 1000 spins on more than one occasion! :eek2:

Biggest single hit I've ever had on it, and I must have put some 15,000 spins through it with fun money, on top of whatever I played with real money, is 120x stake.

According to the paytable 500x stake is possible, but I've never seen better than 120x stake. TBH I just think there are far too many 5-10x stake wins on the paytable.

As KK has noted it can put you nicely into positive territory with a series of 20-50x stake wins, but on a bad run it can quite quickly eat through 200EUR or so at 1EUR per spin, which is a poor show for what is essentially a very low variance slot.
 
Bank Raider...

Was on a bit of a mega-run at Ladbrokes over the last week or so - starting from £250-ish I'd got my balance up to well over £1,500!

Last night I decided to try an old favourite - Tomb Raider - and I experienced something I don't recall EVER getting close to...
I'd been betting £1.50 and doing OK - got 2 lots of free-spins and 3 lots of pick features in my first 95 spins - so I suppose I should really have been expecting it to die - but I never expected this!
Upped my bets to £3 and (including the last one at £1.50) it went 32 spins with NO wins whatsoever! :eek:
(Between the red arrows below)
When I did eventually get a win it was only £1 - then another 7 total blanks... :(

That's pretty dreadful KK, although within the realms of the possible I suppose.

If it makes you feel any better I just went over 500 spins on Bruce Lee at Jackpot Party and didn't hit any of the three bonus rounds :eek2:

(Yeah I know it's a high variance slot, but of the three bonus rounds, two of them can and do award absolutely nothing on a reasonably regular basis, so it's not like there's any sort of guaranteed decent pay when they do drop in.)

EDIT - About 550 spins in and I hit a bonus round, paid 5x stake :lolup:

One really does have to wonder why the bloody hell we bother sometimes......
 
Hello,

I´ve got that screenshot a while ago while playing megafortune....:(

That does indeed look bad, but you have to remember that what you're seeing on the wheel there is no way a reflection of the true odds of the game. (The help file is very clear about this.)

So when you're on the middle ring of the wheel, your chances of hitting the MEGA JACKPOT aren't one in twelve, they're more like one in ten million. (And it's all pre-determined before you start.)

Here's a video of me getting to the same level on the wheel, the wheel feature is from three minutes in.

I know it 'feels' like you're getting very close to hitting the mega jackpot, but in reality it's no such thing :)

Got no screen shot but was playing at the maximo and my goal was just to hit the freespins at Gonzos Quest, and guess what, not ONCE in over 1000 spins starting from 400$ with 2$, 1$ from 300$, 0.80$ from 200$, and 0.40 from 100$ :mad: the worst part is i wouldnt be upset if i had bad return on bonus, my goal was just to get the damn freespins :(

Just get promo from expekt casino, for 5 days every day 10 freespins on beach. Ok, 4 days lost, and 5 day i just saw 4 scatters and that come on beach(xD) give me some. Won 11euro. Gj! Go to new china slot with stacked wilds(sorry forget name of it), .25 per spin, last money spin free spins, there 60euro. God damn! Than just think ' should i try jack and beanstalk because ther i can hit something incrideble or DOA(thx NATE and his screenies xD)'. Join jack and beanstalk, 0.20 per spin, all the time, no free spins, lost. SO sick :( It can be my fairy tale, but no(
every time when i playing netent it just kill me xD
 
Anyone who knows this slot will know just HOW badly this SUCKS! :sob:
(For those that don't know it: The logo is the top pay symbol, and the paw-prints are the wilds... and this is after 3 re-spins)

The reel strips and the weightings on Jackpot Party's slots are laughable TBH KK, you just have to put out of your head any notion that what you're seeing on screen in any whatsoever represents the real odds of stuff coming in.

All their slots with stacked wilds do it quite blatantly, spinning huge numbers of them past, but not landing (the Life of Luxury progressives are awful for this), Bruce Lee is another culprit, just keep an eye on how often those full three strips drop in on 3-4-5 when there's nothing to match up with them on 1 and 2 :)

I honestly don't think there's much of a concept of 'reel strips' with most modern video slots, yes it may have been possible a few years ago with slots like Thunderstruck to work out the RTP from 'decrypting' the reel strips, but to my mind that's no longer the case.

Now it's just a matter of keeping the so-called 'near misses' coming in with tedious regularity.

Jackpot Party's slots are arguably the worst offenders though :D
 
hmm i don;t usually post screenies that suck, cause theres too many too count ^^
BUT this one somehow pissed me off, especially after a x100 return at start, which made me long for more...

ssthatsuck.webp

you know the regular wilds are displayed as such, but are wild vine ones, and you know how rarely it goes to the left, this one did, then
to the right, then in the middle.:mad:
 
A few more paylines and that would have been the jackpot. The shitty 10 on a 1.80 Bet.; hard experience. :(

Yeah, would love for this slot to have a few more lines...
however, the currency is local (Danish crowns), so the 1.8bet is only ap. 0.3$

I have hit this so many times...but this time i stopped and watched it for 1 minute..this could have been so much more :sob:

Hit this actually 2 times within 5 minutes. This kind of spins give me a "bad feeling" about a slot. Went away and played an other one.. Frank doesn't like me!

I swear to god MG have messed with that slot at some point, I played it a lot back in the day, and played it quite a lot again earlier this year - really felt completely different.
 
One symbol away from the 'dream hit', was in free spins so 5x, and had the wilds there so was 25x, and it was with the highest paying symbols.

(Think BDBA with the gems and the 5x wild in free spins, exactly the same thing basically.)

Symbol missing is top left, would have been the top winline.

Pretty sure this is my worst ever hit on Jack and the Beanstalk...
10 free-spins with extra wilds & other features returned a total of bet x0.5 :eek:
The look on Jack's face sums up exactly how I feel...

I just managed 650 spins (!!!!) to trigger the free spins round on this slot, it paid 6x stake :(

I can only assume there are some monster, monster hits on this thing somewhere. Up to now I think the best I've managed in either free play or real money play is about 140x stake or thereabouts.
 
Net Ent have awesome games but often I hear a lot about poor payouts on them but at the same time I can say there were many times when I would go way over 650 spins on some MG games before I triggered the free spins. 1 away from dream win that just really blows, better luck next time!!
 
This is the typical untamed session for me, most recently with wolfpack but the exact same thing happens on panda and tiger. These games certainly do hate me for some reason.

30p play, 350 spins, biggest win 3.60, two bonus games first pays £1.65 second £3.22,

£50 lost in about 30mins@ min stake.

I actually managed to beat that 0.5 x bet return a couple of days ago: 10 free-spins (on Jack & the Beanstalk) paid bet x0.30! :eek2:
Didn't get ANY wilds at all during the free-spins - and only 1 very tiny 3-of-a-kind.
Still - you can't expect to get a big win every time...

Won 1.75 in a freeroll @ iNetBet, decided to goto achilles and bet 9 lines, these 4 scatters dropped in, picked 15 spins, and won about a dollar :(

(You don't win anything for the scatters, they act as wild symbols)

achilles.webp
 
Belive me or not last 4 weeks i've got total 40+ freespins bonus on Jack and the beanstalk and spent over 1500€ and not ONCE a bonus win over 20X, high variance? well i call it BS!

It took over 60 spins to get this one. Didn't even win my bet back.

lol thats so bad! That game can make you want to freak out! Ive went 200 spins with the exact same bet as you and finally hit the 3 eggs and won $1.90 ;(

But when you do hit in the bonus rounds...you can hit REALLY nice

Very tough game to play because it can suck you dry very fast
 
i gave it one last shot (after eating 100€) at jack and bullstalk and got it confirmed by this win that it just want to eat to pay high rollers, no more!
