Topic: Slots with the purchase of bonus games - is it good or bad? (Read 684 times)

Yes, everything depends on luck, and so we really don't know if this is going to work or not. As per my experienced? it's 50:50, there were games that will totally give me at least my money or even more, but there are games that this buying bonus will net me nothing in return. So it's up to the person whether we wants to used it or not or just play regular and wait for the bonus to come in. It might be very long though but you need to keep trying and that's where the excitement comes when playing with this slot games as you don't know what your luck will bring.

It will still depend on your luck. If you have a good percent of it, you can likely get a free spin or a bonus round within a few rolls. Sometimes under 5 if your luck is at a hundred percent. Buying a bonus round, does not always guarantee a good win. This is why I refrain from buying it because they can only deplete my balance easily. Slots are a random game.

So, don't say that buying bonus can give us a good head start because previous results here doesn't dictate what can happen in the future. In short, it won't escalate our chance to see a better win in our future spins. I always saw streamers buy a bonus. So maybe it was only a good thing to them for their viewers to get thrilled easily.

No gamblers do not need to have high bankroll to play with buy bonus especially if we are going to play Pragmatic Play in some casinos where there is an options to change the currency into other fiats such as IDR. With this options, a single buy bonus with the lowest minimum bet will cost you less than $1.5. Lets say you are going to play 10 bonus buy with the lowest min bet, at max you will need to have $15 only.


Winning $50k from $5k bonus buy is basically a very common thing, because it is just 10x return. Those who have played slot a lot like me must have experienced several times having 10x from the bonus buy.

Basically it all boils down to the luck we have during the slot game session. whether it's bonus purchases, even just relying on free spins. In the end, the outcome will be determined by our luck. There are many gamblers, who don't like the free spins purchase feature. Vice versa, there are those who don't like playing for a long time so they buy the bonus purchase feature. Regarding the results, it cannot be determined at all. It all comes back to whether we are lucky, or the game we are playing is bad and doesn't provide many rewards.

Some other gamblers even have methods to combine the two. for example, some of my friends who tend to play slots, have a method when playing slots. he will play as usual first, before they buy the bonus features. If they feel that the game is not providing free spins, they usually buy the free spin option starting from a low value. after that, a few moments later, they will increase the bet per spin. assuming getting free spins. Sometimes, this method works as desired. I don't know if it's just a coincidence, but that's what's unique about slot games.

When we buy free spins, sometimes the results are disappointing. on the other hand, when we don't expect it, we get a free spin reward that can break through to Maxwin. What is certain is that we cannot predict every game session. so, there is nothing better than buying a bonus option or just hoping to get free spins. In essence, it all comes down to luck, and that's what's unique about slot games because sometimes they unexpectedly provide very large multipliers. For those who like playing slots, just enjoy every game. But we should remember, there are risks that we must be prepared to bear.

Buying the bonus feature will indeed give you a little closer to the jackpot or maximum win rather than having to press spin waiting to get the bonus spin but in the end using up your entire balance but if you buy the bonus spin we can immediately see whether we will get a big multiplier at the end of our betting session.
But it all comes back to each gambler how he likes the slot game because some just gamble for fun but some also bet for big wins so everyone definitely has a different experience regarding buying bonus features, sometimes someone only spends $0.1 to get maxwin and also someone spends $1000 doesn't get a big multiplier and it all still depends on luck.

It's true that those who buy bonuses on slot machines that allow this need to have a pretty high bankroll because if you have a limited bankroll and you go for bonus buy, you will be left with nothing if you don't manage to win anything significant in that. I've also seen a lot of YouTubers uploading videos of them doing bonus buying on games such as Sweet Bonanza and I've seen them winning nothing in some buys worth about $4,000 which isn't a small amount for everyone.

And, I've also seen them winning about $50,000 with just a bonus buy of $5,000 which is insane. However, it is not recommended for everyone because it's a very big risk, and those who don't have any money as a back up to buy more for the hope to win back should never try doing such things in gambling.

Overall and generally done by many people, slot games are one of the games that many gamblers like and love the most. It could be said that the average gambler doesn't feel like gambling is complete if they don't visit slots, but the difference, as you said, is the choice of each player in the method of buying bonuses or playing for real, manually or automatically.

So slots using the bonus buying method, for me personally is a method that I often do, even though the bonus purchased is bigger than the one generated at the end of the round, but that's not a problem for me, Sometimes there are also things that make me happy when luck is on my side, even though I only buy once, what makes me happy the most is the spin bonus, Sometimes I have produced 2 spin rounds in one bonus purchase, that makes me luckier than playing manually or automatically, in terms of purchasing the bonus spins that I am aiming for to produce a good win.

Yes, that's right, initially slot machines did not have a buy freespin feature. I watched a slot game in a real casino on YouTube and there was no buy freespins feature. In my opinion, slots that have a buy free spins feature are more difficult to get bonuses than slots that don't have it. Do you think because they have a buy freespin feature that the chances of getting freespins on normal spins are lower and more difficult? I often play pragmatic play and my experience playing there is also like that. At the PGSoft provider it is still quite easy to get a free spin bonus without purchasing because most slot games there do not have a purchase feature (only new games have this feature)

I think being annoyed will be the wether the slot game has a buy bonus feature or not since he is pertaining to a bunch of manual spin without hitting a bonus round. I play slot games before this buy feature was introduced. Spending bunch of spins without hitting any significant win even though buy feature that time is not available is really annoying.

I think bonus buy feature was introduced since many requested because not all isers has a patience to manual spin or auto spin until bonus game hit.

You can say it is annoying because now we have this feature, how about in the past when the early slots game had no buy bonus feature?
Slot without buy bonus feature is basically the original slot as what it was designed for the first time.
Buy bonus can be annoying as well if you do it continuously but you get really bad luck and get no win at all with the continuous buy bonus.
My point is, annoying or not is not about the slot is having buy bonus or not, but it is more about the result you get.

I have done some "research" meaning I have tried autobet for 500 to 1000 spins and I got the bonus round like 7-15 times while if I bought the bonus directly I would have bought it for 10 times as a sure thing because you can even get lower than the numbers in auto bet and as such it is better to buy the bonus ten guaranteed times rather than enjoying your game and risking to get the bonus round not that frequently,that is a big miss.

Another thing I see is that in any bonus round that I got without buying it,usually the wins are not big at all,I kept buying the bonus at FISH EYE slot today and with a IDR 20.000 Buy in bonus meaning 200 IDR as a base bet I almost hit that 2.000.000 IDR max win,I won 1.977.000 IDR there,so better to buy the bonus,set a budget for it and grind the bonus,best thing to do in such slots.

Buying bonuses in slots machines is like creating more winning chances for yourself, I don't see anything wrong with this, and these bonuses are high in price, I don't think that every one who have purchased these bonuses have won the jackpot, so it's still a lucky game, instead of trying to buy bonuses I prefer to just enjoy my game, if I get lucky so be it, even if I have access to a large amount of money I still won't spare some amount to try bonuses.

Some online casinos have a feature that unlocks free bonuses without paying anything but its been long since I saw such last, all you need to do is keep playing the slot and you can trigger the bonus unlock yourself, I am not sure if such still exists today.

It is useful for new players to learn their gameplay current players looking to perfect their strategy on their favorite slots can also benefit from this free spins offer. Also any winnings from free spins are usually withdrawn as cash subject to betting rules. However, it should be noted that free spin bonuses do not facilitate winning the game, or guarantee payouts. These bonuses are like gifts for newly registered players at the online casino. Players can participate in real money gaming with free spins in advance with bonuses in hand.

Not only that but I would add that usually every big win,the huge multipliers in almost every slot game are exactly found in the bonus round.I have found out lately that if you keep buying the bonus,well most of the time you will lose as that is how slots are programmed and projected in the first place but when you hit a big winning round you will only find here the multipliers of well over x1000 which is a good one and rarely you can find these multipliers,in fact very rarely you can find them in the normal game,so overall buying the bonus is a good thing in slot machines.

I will not try to buy bonuses even if I have a large balance in my account. I will still play with small stakes and if I want to buy a bonus, I will probably only do it a few times and not use much money. That is why we have to know that buying a bonus does not guarantee that we can get a big win because everything will depend on luck. And if we want to buy a bonus, we have to give up a certain amount of money to buy a bonus where we also don't know the winning percentage.

I don't think I've ever had a win of x300, either from bonus purchases or manual spins. Maybe I also very rarely get wins above x50 and what I often get is breakeven from buying bonuses or doing manual spins. Maybe later, if there is more money, I will try to increase the bet, maybe around one and a half of the minimum bet, to see if luck will come or not at all and cause me to experience losses.

That's why I usually don't play slots, but I used to do better in those special bonus rounds than playing the "normal" game.
Every time I chose to play (with very little money) normal rounds It was a loss after a loss and the wins weren't even able to extend my experience. When I paid for a bonus and got that special game within a game, It usually ended up with a smaller or bigger win.
I'd say paid bonuses are a fun addition to the game that makes it more entertaining.

The slot games doesn’t required any strategy to win the game,So any one can win the slot game as compared to other skill based gambling games.The slot will give you huge chance to win by your luck and same slot games will take all your money.The procedure is needed one for the slot game,the slot no need tactics.If you play the slot games without the procedure,then it will be big loss for you.The luck alone play both the win or loss in the slot games.Only few correctly use their fortune time to get some huge win and settle in their life.Some of my friends had made the huge winning from the gambling and settle with good holding for their long life with huge bank balance.

Yeah, if you are that kind of person, who just want to see the results of the game, then buying bonus plays are good.
But sometimes there are gamblers who like to have some fun and so they play slots the way it was design, try your luck to see if you can get that big bonus.
So I guess there's nothing wrong with buying one, there are still that risk that it's not going to be worth in the end, or the buy bonus will give you that win that you are expecting in the end.
Again, for me I try it at times and the results is 50/50 on my end.

I guess that’s always the case not just in slots but in different gambling games, if you don’t dare to play, you can’t be winning for sure. And the more you decide to play, the bigger chances you’ll have to lose, or the bigger chances you’ll have to win. At the end of the day, it’s the luck that matters. Without it, no matter how hard you play, you will never have the chance to be in profits. Most especially for slots, where luck plays a big role in winning.

I only experience buying bonus whenever I have huge bankroll and tired on manual spinning. I have a terrible experience on hunting huge win on bonus buy since you will notice that most is just too obvious that you will not win compared when your hit the bonus using manual spin since you are looking forward for it.




Yep, the biggest win I can get on bonus buy is x300 that typically you need to hit x100 just to break even on buy bonus cost. This is why using minimum bet as base bet for buy bonus is typically not worth it because you are losing big time on useless buy bonus while earning small amout in case you manage to hit multiplier above the breakeven level.
