Game is playing appalling today and now wont load.Not sour grapes as I won yesterday
but something seems to have changed
It's running just the same for me, TBH you just got unlucky.
This game can easily go through 200-250x stake without anything of note happening, so you need to have a bankroll that can weather that, or be prepared to take the hit.
I played the game more this evening, following on from my session yesterday (which is in the previously linked video). Someone left a comment on the video to suggest simply gambling hi/lo as soon as feature entry is gained, until the hi/lo gamble is lost, at which point a cashout is awarded - playing to cashout being the optimal strategy of course.
So that's what I did, held down the space bar to do turbo play, and then as soon as I got onto the feature board, I gambled AGAINST the number, to lose the hi/lo gamble as quickly as possible and get the cashout (simply for the sake of play efficiency).
In the space of 823 spins I got:
3 x BIG MONEY (all three of which paid 150x)
1 x STREAKER (80x IIRC)
1 x 100x
1 x 50x
3 x Take It Or Leave it features (which paid 10x, 20x and 50x IIRC)
Multiple x crappy wins and features
Multiple LOSE results
On a bad run it'll want loads of spins to get into the feature, and you can get a LOSE on 4-5 consecutive cashouts, with your balance dropping 250x stake or more - which happened to me this evening.
However, the session ended up positively and I cashed out £200 from the £100 deposit yesterday (I also played some Taxi Movida which boosted my bankroll a bit, 98.3% RTP is not to be sniffed at).
Overall, this slot is low variance but it is very lumpy, even on small stakes. (A bad run on 20p spins will decimate a £50 balance no problem.)
If you want to quickly get a feel for how it runs under the hood, just play it as outlined above, and you'll soon get a feel for it. Basically, each feature entry can be anything from 0x to 1000x, and losing the hi/lo ASAP to get the cashout simply reveals that value.
