Dash Casino £50 deposit, £25 bonus, £750 WR.
Game to be played: Avalon 2 at 60p a spin. Starting balance £78.05 (I got an 8th place finish in a Daily Avalon freeroll and won $5 (£3.05))
42 spins in, not even down £6 yet. Get Excalibur bonus which pays 44x bet despite not reforging it. Up to £98.
124 spins later, I have dropped to £69, only £9 down on my starting balance. Little did I know that was to be my "balance valley" for this deposit.
Because, in the space of 10 spins....I enjoyed a streak on Avalon 2 which I am never likely to beat. How's this for a run?
Spin 1 - 3 scatters. Choose your wild round paid 51.5x bet. Up to £99.
Spin 2 - Multiple 5OAKs of Q, 19x bet. Up to £110.
Spin 4 - 3 scatters (for the second time in just 4 spins). And it got the Merlin 4x treatment to boot. A win of 20x bet before I have even got the chance to pick trailing wilds.....and I will get back to that bonus round later
Spin 9 - 3 scatters (2nd time in 6 spins and 3rd time in 9 spins). Dusky Moors paid 49x bet.
Spin 10 - 3 scatters again!



Features activated on Avalon 2 on consecutive spins. That is most definitely a first for me. THREE features in the space of just 7 spins. FOUR in the space of 10 spins. Morgans Keep paid 50x bet. I'm smiling from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat.
Back to the trailing wilds round.....it was looking like one of those rounds where I would see and smell the cigar but not get to smoke it.
Spin 9 of 20 - Stacked wild on Reel 1, single wild top of Reel 5.
Spin 10 of 20 - Wild on bottom of reel 1, wild on bottom of reel 2, 2 wilds on reel 5. 5OAKed Ks. won 15x bet.
Spin 11 of 20 - Wild on middle of reel 4, stacked wild on reel 5. 5OAKed 10s. won 12x bet.
Spin 12 of 20 - 2 wilds on reel 4, no win
Spin 13 of 20 - Wild on top of reel 3 - 3OAKed 9s. arrrrrgh!!! A wild on each of the 5 reels in the space of 4 spins and very little to show for it.

Spin 14 and 15 of 20 - stacked wild on reel 3, 3OAKed Guinevere and a no win.
Spin 17 of 20 - wild at top of reel 3, no win
Spin 18 of 20 - 2 wilds on reel 3, no win
A maddening sequence....but on spin 19, the stars (wilds) finally aligned....
Pic 1 - I've never had a wild on all 5 reels on Avalon 2. This is the closest I have come to doing so. Got a good top-paying symbol on the last reel for good measure. 180.5x bet.
Pic 2 - total for the round (including the 3 scatters which got 4x'ed) - 242.8x bet. Up to £256. And I am about to find myself getting another 2 features within 6 spins of this? Crazy.
Pic 3 - The crazy 10 spin spell as shown on Playcheck. £69 to £314 in 10 spins.
As this point, I ought to be expecting a backlash. Sure enough, I quickly dropped to £299. But I then started to hit a handful of 5OAKs and all of a sudden I found myself at £340. 200 spins after I had played the Morgans Keep feature, I am at £335 and I get 3 scatters (5 features in the space of 210 spins is most likely a record for me too). Played the Black Knight feature and won 39x bet. Now at £358. I quickly dropped to £335 and quit. £269 of WR done, £481 to go.
Next day...back to Avalon 2, knowing the Wheel of Fortune is my next feature. Quickly got up to what was to be my peak balance of £350, then drop to £345. £369 of WR to go. Then the backlash comes...
239 spins. £143.40 wagered. A mere 9 spins where I won 2x bet. No wins greater than 6x bet. £99.34 drop in my balance. Down to £245 and still £227 of WR to go. In the space of of those 239 spins, I have gone from seeing an almost certain cashout of £200 to maybe seeing one for less than £100, which would be just a brutal waste of a fantastic Avalon 2 session. I gotta get the hell out of there. So I do. I play Loaded to slow down the slide. 480 spins at min bet eats up £120 of my WR and I lose £26. Now at £219. £107 of WR to go. At least a £125 cashout is guaranteed now. I decided to go back to Avalon 2 and try and undo the damage from earlier. I only have to play 177 spins to complete WR.
32 spins in and I oh-so-nearly did wipe it all out in one go.
Pic 4 - If Guinevere or a wild comes in on Reel 5, I am winning at least 240x bet. At least I 5OAKed the Ks. 62.67x bet. Up to £250 and a cashout of £150 is in the bag.
WR was met with a balance of £259. But I am going to play until I drop to £250 and hopefully get the feature along the way. 44 spins later, I got it. But no magic 0 came. Won 36x bet to take me up to £285. At this point, I make my mind up. Cashing out at £275 or £300. I drop to £277 and then get Excalibur feature and win 35x bet. Within 90 spins, I have also managed to get the choose your wild and trailing wilds features as well but they were both terrible (both under 15x bet) and I am stuck at £298. Then I get a win that sends me from £298 to £310. Before dropping to £300. Which was promptly cashed out
