Ahh dead or alive, The time has come to challenge this slot in all its horrifying glory, i have £100 and a sense of dread as i undertake this brutal task, Im going to either hit big or bust trying,

The rules!

1) My entire deposit will be played on dead or alive, ill either bust out completely or walk away with atleast DOUBLE my initial bankroll of £100.

2) I will not change my stakes, I haven't decided what stakes i will play at just yet, i think 18p/spin will give me alot of playtime, but 36p is tempting.

3) I will record my session, obviously ill mainly just record decent line hits and bonus rounds, and hopefully capture a 5 wild line on a bonus... live!

4) Everything will be done on auto-play.


now, the bits i need help with, Firstly i would like a recommendation for a casino that has DOA and a decent sign up offer, i will look myself once ive posted this but i had a quick look last night and found nothing.

Could use some input on stakes, 9p/18p/27p/36p? What would you play it at with my bankroll?
 
Dont bother, think its extreme unlikely to actually make a withdraw from playing DOA unless you hit an amazing free spins round. Play it every now and then the past month, probably a few hundred and my biggest win was something like x30 stake, it is easily one of the worst paying slots I have played and unless you hit big in the freespins it just eats your cash up throwing you the odd 2-5x stake win.

Well I know a website which has loads of NetEnt casinos listed in order of best to worst sign-up bonuses... :rolleyes:
So tell me which ones you've already joined & I'll have a look.

im doing the challenge as we speak, decided i would try all british casino, 50% match and 25 free chips with a 25x WR on just bonus funds, im playing on 27p/spin, wish me luck!

Will be the quickest video on record.:D
 
Ok!

An update would be interesting to read now! Busted out? :D (sorry for the smile but the most certain outcome would be that) ;)
 
The update is, I have either hit double my deposit, or ive busted, and the video is being uploaded showing one of these!

will post the vid when its uploaded.
 
Enjoyed your experiment

I really enjoyed your experiment.
I kept seeing these big wins that people had posted but when i played the slot i would only throw a tenner here and there and of course with no joy.
If your video is to go by it would seem the people that have won big must be extremely lucky with a win early or have pumped some serious money and time into it.
After watching your experiment it does not inspire me to ever go anything more than my odd tenner to be honest.
Then again as a player of The Finer Reels maybe i would be better playing it lol.

Thanks again.
 


And there it is, any feedback appreciated!


You poor thing. I commend you on sticking with it for that many spins. The video is good quality and you are a gentleman. On your next video I suggest forget that you are recording yourself and say what you would normally say. Of course if I did that I wouldn't be able to post cause every other word would have to be bleeped.
I was rooting for you to get a big win but you have shown the true face of Dead or Alive. 99.9% it will kick you in the butt and once in the while it may payout big. It shows the true nature of the slot. I like that.

Good job:thumbsup:

Hi Sigothx1,

Fun to see you doing the challange at All British! And to be honest, this double deposit bonus was an smallish mistake from our end.
It should have worked liked:
1st deposit > welcome bonus.
2nd deposit > reload bonus of 25%.

In your situation: Indeed, our support team was happy to remove to bonus and e.g. add the reload manually on your second attempt.
Since we had very little complaints/requests to remove the bonus we left it like it is en re-program the priorities in our backoffice.

Unlucky the big win did not show up. I would have loved the video more showing a +/- 2500x bet win :)

Good luck with the challange and if you wish to try on of our other brands with a welcome bonus, please let me know :)

Kind regards,

Jan
 
This slot is just awfull i cant believe the hype it has on this forum, and no disrespect but to me it seams odd that certain people on this forum seam to hit a wildline atleast once a week.... Ive been playing this slot almost every day for the last 4 weeks, and before that every now and then. Once have i hit a wildline and 4440x bet. Its next to impossible to win on it unless u get 5 wilds in the freespins 199 out of 200 freespins pay shit...

Just now at Karl Casino i had the worst run.
 
Patience is key with DOA - The next time you decide (if you have any patience left) go for a $50 deposit at 2 different sites and roll with 27c on each of them. It can be quite entertaining hitting the Free Spins often in both windows. The key is also playing without a bonus as if you double you can withdraw :)

Doing DOA at one Casino becomes boring for me sometimes, I have rolled at 3-4 Casinos simultaneously with both good and bad results. In most cases i'm playing at 2 different places at once.

Thanks - Great Vid - Sorry you didn't get those elusive 5 Wilds.

Hi Whodatrec,

Can you send me your username please so I can review your session and maybe provide you a compensation :)?
Thanks in advance,

Jan
 
Yes, but to be fair, i had a bonus on the first deposite and i won alitle but lost it all back pluss about the same amount in deposites. You can say the bad run started after the win and then all the following deposites and freespins where awfull.
 
Thanks for the positive comments guys, i know im no chopley, but it adds a certain enjoyment to make a video on a session.

as for penitence, i fully understand that, i knew when i upped the stakes i was tilting, but after thousands of spins and the bonus rounds i had, i just had to do something!

Plotting and planning my next venture :)
 
Just started the challenge :-)

Good video - you picked subject matter of such crushing tedium that to ad lib for a whole half-hour would've been almost impossible. Sorry I tempted fate with the 'quickest video ever' post I made. I just knew that when you raised to 54p your balance would go down quicker than Bangkok ladyboy. You'll soon develop Chopley's laconic style naturally as you become more cynical each video. :thumbsup:
 
Cool video, thanks for sharing.
Since you asked for feedback, the sound seems a bit out-of-sync, so we hear that a wild is dropping before seeing it.

i noticed this aswell re-watching it, i think as the sound is comming from my speakers its a tiny delay before it hits my microphone, easiest solution is to mute sounds, but i think that makes it more boring, might play around with some background music next time.
 
Today im up about £450 from a few deposits totalling 70 quid, most of that coming from a £20 deposit doing a few spins here or there on IR and a few others. I withdrew £300 and played with almost £200. Had a few goes on leagues of fortunes and won another £70, thought I would try £50 on doa quick at a low stake, 0.18p which given the fact that thats something like 250+spins and whatever I win you would normally get atleast a few decent hits if you were playing pretty much every other slot I have tried. I knew the outcome before hand and my biggest win was something like £2.68, now unless you manage to hit a 4-5 wild hit in free spin bonuses very early on (which is unlikely as even though ive only put a few hundred quid into it my biggest win was barely enough to cover my last 20 dead spins) it seems that the only way you hit a big win on this game is by putting loads into it.

Playboy has a similar variance for alot of people but today I hit a 200x bet and a few others around the 100x mark and last month hit a 4000x bet on my first ever go on the slot, im not expecting 5 wilds, but it seems you either win your stake back, get a 20x hit on the rare occasion or you walk away with nothing, which ultimately happens when you are only winning back what you put on. Horrible game and has a few vocal advocates on this forum who probably have a huge bankroll and it encourages others to try to hit them wins, atleast on other slots I can fairly easily take away double/triple/etc my balance several times a week.

Everyone has their own experiences. I quite often get between 1-300x on DOA and i don't play it much. I have had over 2000x bet on it as well. It's usually my go to game when my roll starts getting low as it seems to always boost me up a bit. Everyone's experience of the slot is completely different, it's been good to me and i don't play it like a mad man.
