Do you stop betting after hitting a big multiplier? Go to another slot? Do you have any tips related to this?

In theory, the probability of hitting a big multiplier in the next spin will stay the same. However, I often got busted if I continue to play the same game. On a rare occasion, however, I re-trigger free-spins (feature) in less than ten spins*.

After hitting a big multiplier, you can (1) withdraw (most desirable behavior), (2) play like ten more spins in the same game, or (3) play other games. The mantra is "less (spin) is more (desirable)."

Sir please Sir tell me, what should I do to get out of this game addiction? :v

It's FUN, right?! Here's what you should do:

1. Stop PM-ing me your wins Grin

, it made me wanted to deposit and play too!
2. If you never get REKT so bad, then wait for that moment, and you will be a better man;
3. If you were somehow lucky, remember that it will not last that long;
4. When you have no spare money to play, don't borrow money (or sell your stuff) to play, simply use the infinite fun balance.

I might create a thread about this, at the moment, please tell your wife about your problem, it helps most of the time. LuL

Despite the effort, the website should receive some clicks from Google searches and it should be worth it..

Not sure about that since the campaign was paused, hope they will be back stronger though!

Yep, lots of games on the list are old. Perhaps once you love a particular game, it's difficult to move to other games.

Quote from: sabotag3x on August 05, 2020, 08:12:02 AM

The outstanding slot on this list is Cash Noire from Netent which really caught my attention.. What a beautiful game!

Yeah, it was released on June 24th, 2020. Still pretty fresh! Lot's of new titles are puzzle or megaways setup, like Street Fighter 2, Gonzo's Quest Megaways, The Dog House Megaways (soon). I guess users like to see more action!

Some suggestions: since there are more than 1,000 titles, if you post once a day, you guys would need about three years to complete the review. It would be best to prioritize the top-20/100 and newest titles. You guys also compete with slotcatalog.com, which already have a complete database.

Piggy Riches Megaways

Yeah it has excellent gameplay, sadly the RTP is bad: 95.71%, 94.72%, 92.67%, 90.71% (non-jackpot)
Since it has four RTP variants (different across casinos), you should check first which one you use. If the casino use 95.71% RTP, then it's not too bad if you really like the game.

I have played Piggy Riches Megaways a month ago and had a great experience. Got a 30x shot through some scatters as it got me some free spins. But can't forget to mention that it took me more than 50 spins with the same minimum bet and I just won nearly half of the bet amount in just 8-10 bets, which ended me up in some loss but not too much. I believe the 777 (3 reel) slots are much better as the game usually stops immediately when tapped upon, compared to which this Piggy Riches game was slow when tried to stop to get instant results.

I tried it in fun mode to understand the concept because $0,25 is too much for me Tongue

I prefer the $0,10 slots.. Yes, this model is better than the traditional ones..

Although released in end of 2019 it is almos the same.The bonus frequency haven’t changed at all and remain in what I call “rarely falls on the reels” most of our gameplay sessions.However a fun fact is that when the bonus round comes in such games always gives you a decent amount of money to win.In slots where bonus frequency is higher most of the time the bonus round gives only pennies and it give you a false sense of feeling good.

You should check the volatility and the max win before you play the game mate so that you can adjust your "goal" accordingly.
When the winning is more frequent, players can bet higher. Winning 1000x with $0.1 bet is equal to winning 100x with $1 bet.

Starburst and Book of Dead remain strong in 2020. I wonder which game will topple these champions. Honestly, these slots are kind of outdated if we judge it by the gameplay.
Perhaps Book of Dead lovers should try Legacy of Dead. It's similar but newer (released in Q4 2019).

The Khan academy uses this method to solve similar problems so I think it's the right way.

I believe it's a standard textbook way to solve the problem. So? Are you going to do the 10,000 spins? LoL

Anyways, Roobet's "Guess the Slot" from 9th to 21st round (RTP info from slotcatalog.com):
- Tractor Beam (96.01% - Med/High);
- Crazy Starter (96.04% - Med);
- Voodoo Gold (96.1% - High);
- Fire Lightning (97.61% - Med/High)
- Sky Gems 5 Wilds (N/A);
- Spin and Spell (95.8% - N/A);
- Dragon's Fire (95.25% - High);
- Mechanical Orange (96% - N/A);
- Phoenix Fire Power Reels (95.13% - Med/High);
- Avalon: The Lost Kingdom (95% - N/A);
- Spin Town (95.07% - Low);
- Midas Golden Touch (96.1% - Med/High);
- Turning Totems (96.1% - Low/Med).

Fire Lightning is one of my "menu" when I'm on a "jump around" mode.

^ I don't like math, but I think the calculation is correct based on independent probability "at least one time."

P (Win) = 0.0001
P (No win) = 1 - 0.0001 = 0.9999

P (at least one win in 10,000 spins) = 1 - P (no win in 10,000 spins)
= 1 - P (No win in 1st spin ∩ No win in 2nd spin ∩ .... ∩ No win in 10,000th spin)
= 1 - (0.9999)(0.9999)....(0.9999)
= 1 - (0.9999)^10,000
= 1 - 36.79%
= 63.21%

But the probability of winning in the next spin will always 0.0001.

^Obviously exploration vs exploitation is an interesting topic, but I'm not sure if the problem will still be relevant with a random number generator in modern slots. Hence:

Quote from: mu_enrico on May 18, 2020, 12:52:13 PM

Strategy

(5) You don't have to stay in the same game and waste all of your money there. Remember, the probability of winning the next spin will remain the same.

This is the most general advice in slots since you don't have to do a statistical analysis while playing.

Do you think (or anyone else) my calculations are correct :

If I have one in 10 000 chances of winning the jackpot at each spin it means I have 9 999 chances of missing it.
Thus I have 9 999/10 000 x 9 999/10 000 of missing it for 2 spins

So for 1000 spins I'll get
(9 999/10 000)¹⁰⁰⁰=90.5% chances of missing the jackpot
and 1 - 90.5%=9.5% chances of winning the jackpot at least one time

and for 10 000 spins
(9 999/10 000)^{10 000}=37% of missing the jackpot
and 1 - 37%=63% chances of winning the jackpot at least one time

Perhaps you should try low-medium volatility slots mate so you can play longer even with a small bankroll. Well, it won't give you thousands x winning, but at least it can make you happy Cheesy

I stop play on high volatility slots after getting zeroed every time, multiple times, lol. It hurts so bad! So now I mainly play on low-medium one, sometimes medium-high.

In case you have some pennies to spend:
- Erik the Red (Low/Med);
- Warlords: Crystals of Power (Low/Med);
- Bronco Spirit (Med).

I believe you'll be back Grin

Well the taste is the taste!

I play all slots, but high volatility slots are much more interesting for me. As you say I got zeroed many times, sometimes it's hurt sometimes don't, but usually I come back fast with more money and I had luck to make big money when I hit something good!
I'm busy these days with many things, maybe this weekend I will have more time and I will try your suggestions! Thanks man!
