Players Palace, 31st July. £25 deposit, no bonus.
A spot of IR at min bet. I was 5 spins from a bustout when I get a reprieve...
My 61st 3-reel WD. And for the 45th time out of 61, I get a 5OAK from it. 27 x 5OAKs of 10s and 9s. 182.1x bet.
Just 14 spins later....
5 Sarahs and 2 wilds. 116.66x bet.
I never got to £100, so settled for a quick cashout of £75.
Sure Win Cup July 2016
My only win from July's edition of this tournament. Nostalgia Casino account. Score: 110,700. 65th place.
Continues used: only 2 this time (instead of the maximum of 5). The reason why? They changed the prize structure for this tournament.
Now everyone from 1st place to 100th place gets the same prize - 100 euro. So it's now like the "3-Day Survivor" prize structure.
So once you are certain to finish in the Top 100, you have absolutely no incentive to aim for a higher place anymore, unlike before when 100th place won a prize of 10 euro, but the prizes gradually increased up to 1st place, which would pay a prize of 350 euro.
So anyhow....Total spend: 170 euro. Total prizes: 100 euro. Net loss: 70 euro. That makes it my second worst net result from a Sure Win Cup tournament.
So that makes my overall Sure Win Cup results look like this....
