Playing in a pragmatic provider can give quite a fun adrenaline rush, especially when in several rounds there is a lightning bolt that strikes with a large multiplier, so it will be a little tense when you have to see a lot of fractions.
But for now I'm taking a break from slot games because of the series of losses I've gotten, maybe some time in the future I'll try again the luck I can have when playing slots.

I've never tried the slot from Red Tiger but for Play'NGo I haven't played it for a long time and this reminds me of when I first played at the Play'NGo provider and got a pretty big win there, I remember very well Moon Princess was.

I already felt tense at the sight of the lightning coming and desperately hoped that it was good luck coming. But the truth is that everything just went away and didn't give me a win and I can only be disappointed. But that's what gambling is like because it depends on your luck. If you're lucky, winning a lot of money won't take long. But on the other hand, if you are unlucky, you will experience defeat which can hurt you.

I rarely play slot games from the Red Tiger provider. And because I'm away from the Pragmatic Play provider, I play slot games from that provider and often play slot games from the Play'N Go provider. The Play'N Go provider often gives me wins, even though it's not too big.

Red Tiger quick good, for people who have a small balance.

However, it takes more time and long to hit the bonus. My experience, I spending 20$-30$ for around 0.1$ and can make spin more than 700-800 spin comparing Pragmatic Play & PlayNGO around 200-300 spin.

However, the result are quite same with PP & PlayNGo. They more often to give a small win, but is good because most the time I using this slot for build up my bankroll.

I never had tried Red Tiger and tried a few games in their web page,they sure make a lot of slot machines but it is crystal clear to gamblers who have been playing long enough like myself  that they are years behind in quality compared to Pragmatic Play and Play n Go which make really nice themed slots and much better bonuses than Red Tiger.Apparently Red Tiger is a medium quality provider which different from Play n Go and Pragmatic Play don't go the extra mile to bring that highly addictive game play to the user and that must be the fact why they are not as well known as the other providers mentioned here,I didn't experience any emotion at all and their bonuses lacked a lot compared to PP and P n G.

I never force myself to play with lots of rounds. And usually, if a slot game has a Buy feature, I often buy it even though the results don't always give big wins.

Thanks for your advice. Maybe sometime I will try to play until 700-800 rounds to see the results. And if, before 700 spins are reached, I can get a big win, I will also definitely quit right away.

but there is a new game released on Stake.com, namely ZEUS VS HADES which made me interested in trying to play this game with curiosity like 2 games made 1 and even more challenging in the HADES option, the volatility is very high and I feel challenged to try it .

sadly it was my mistake because everytime i try new game i use minimum bet amount and regret a bit when multiplier is 5000x more i get with bet around 0.01$
although a little disappointed but this is the first experience that I share here in a game that has just been released.

Did you win this 5000+ with normal spin or you won it by using the buy bonus feature? As I just checked, the buy bonus is more expensive than most other pragmatic games with a range of 100x from the base bet while this game has 2 type of buy bonus, 150x and 300x from the base bet. If you did it with the buy bonus, which one did you use? The 150x or the 300x from the base bet? This game seems to be following the model of Wanted Dead or a Wild by hacksaw but Zeus vs Hades has bigger max win (15,000x).

yes, the buy bonus features are a bit pricey compared to other game types from Pragmatic and I got 5000+ multiples from buying 300x bonus features. but before buying this bonus feature I used the normal spin up to 500+ without getting a return and it seems like my balance is being sucked up fast.

after that I was curious about the very high volatility and decided to buy the bonus feature. indeed, if you look at it a little similar to the game from Hacksaw Wanted Dead or a Wild, but Zeus vs Hades is more interesting and of course the minimum bet amount is very low.

I'm still curious to try again to get a minimum multiplier of 4000x-5000x but waiting for payday first because yesterday's budget ran out at Sweet Bonanza. lol

You will get more in the pay day as if you are VIP chances are high that the monthly bonus will also be in that day or just a bit further so you get two pays at once.I usually the monthly bonus conserve it for sport betting while I love to play with IDR in order to buy the bonus more and may be I give a try to this new game as with 200 RP as base bet I can buy the bonus x300 with just 60.000 RP something like near 4 dollars in total,so I will try to get that x15000 which is much better than x5000 in Gates of Olympus.

They will. Not all of them, but might be enough for a casino to go bankrupt. The algorithm for the whole process of a bonus program should be something that allows some gamblers to win big and withdraw, to spread the news, and, on the other hand, something that doesn't make the company to go over their promotional budget. It's good if the company is big enough to allow some unexpected expenses, but for a small company it can be a challenge.

I'm pretty sure that they would have a stop mechanism in place that would stop withdrawals if something goes wrong.

That has happened many times in financial institutions when they stop trading, so in a casino I'm sure they have similar mechanisms.

There's no way a casino will go bankrupt because of a bug like that.

Just stop? Without saying a word in advance? I disagree with such policy. I mean, bonuses are are there to attract people to the site. To make them register. If a site has a stop mechanism in place, like you said, they should state it in their ToS: "We reserve the right to suspend your withdrawal if something goes wrong through our fault". Without something like this it's not fair.

It's good if the company is big enough to allow some unexpected expenses, but for a small company it can be a challenge.

For small casinos, if someone bets big on slots, they will get nervous because they may not be able to pay the player's winnings. It's a pretty common case for slots, so better play at a big casino if you want to bet big, especially on slots.

Big casinos are usually better than small ones in many ways, including the case you mentioned. I wouldn't recommend to bet big for anyone, but still it's better to play on big and recognized platforms.

The thrill of payday! Like waiting for a torrential downpour after a brutal heatwave. And if you're a VIP, double whammy! The monthly bonus and the regular one join forces like a power couple. Time to show off your sports betting prowess and try that new game!

Starting with a measly 200 RP bet, you can grab that x300 bonus for just 60,000 RP, what a bargain! Who needs the Gates of Olympus with its pathetic x5000 multiplier? Not you! You're shooting for the moon! So strap in, save that monthly bonus, and get ready to skyrocket with that colossal x15000 multiplier!

This is one of the best part in Pragmatic Play especially where the casino has a feature to change the bet value into IDR. The minimum bet is affordable to all gamblers starting from low bankroll gambler to whales. Unfortunately this low minimum bet is not followed by most other attractive providers with high volatility games such as Hacksaw, Push Gaming, NoLimitCity, Relax Gaming. I think if these providers also allow such low bet like Pragmatic, many gamblers will start to leave Pragmatic and move to other higher volatility providers with higher max win

it looks like you came back to the slot out of curiosity. Lol
you can experience yourself in this new game which is more interesting although it is a bit difficult to get a big multiplier but if pragmatic likes you when you come back to the slot game maybe you will be awarded a big multiplier.

-snip

yes, and especially Hacksaw which is famous for its very high volatility but huge multiplier if lucky. I also think so, for example Hacksaw can be like Pragmatic, maybe there will be more enthusiasts. but that seems impossible considering Hacksaw is a rich gambler's game

I've never played 700-800 rounds to get a big bonus or win. I usually only play 100-200 rounds, and I'm out whatever the result. And usually, I can get decent results from those rounds.

Then maybe this was the time to try it and the post you saw above was a sign. Who knows maybe you can get lucky with that than your previous playing style. Sometimes good wins and high multipliers will only come out once the game is heated already or lots of spins are already being played but there are also times that we can get those good wins under 100 or even 50 spins.

The only advantage of playing with smaller rounds is that we are betting bigger amounts. Whenever we win, it should give us a decent profit than the playing with longer spin rounds. It's always better to quit once we already won enough money because we might get tempted just lose what we already win.

Well, you tempt me to try it hahaha. But I guess I'll give it a go and maybe it'll be the most laps I'll ever do. But it depends on how much money I have. But hey, if I want to try up to 700-800 rounds, I have to do every 100 rounds up to 7x. But I can choose 50, 100, 500, 1000, and 2000 rounds simultaneously. Hmm, it is really tempting.

But that seems to be fine for me too. And if later, before reaching 700 rounds, I can already get a win and even a big one, I will stop immediately. I always play with small bets for up to 100 rounds in one round. And hopefully, I can win again.

700-800 rounds of bonus buy or spins as if these are spins I agree,they are enough in order to try your luck and with that number of spins chances are that you will hit the bonus feature most of the time.If they are 700-800 bonus rounds then this is a lot of time to be trying as 1 round has 15 spins in Gates of Olympus for example which when you have a good win can last longer and to achieve this you either need a huge amount of dollars balance or you can convert to IDR and play relatively cheap and be able to get these numbers even with a relatively small balance.I only hope you guys win as I am losing from a lot of time  .

I have tried it with several normal rounds but the results are not there, it only sucks up a number of balances then I try to buy spins but it is the same as normal rounds where there are no results at all.
Maybe you can win this one slot game because luck is on your side.
I am always curious and try new slot games that have been won by several other gamblers, but unfortunately when I try, no one has ever won from some of these new slot games.

[Bitinity]

Tried a new game from Pragmatic namely Wild West Bounty today and a bit lucky to hit 1130x in my 3rd bonus buy although the base bet is just low amount (IDR800). This game is actually just a re-themed game from the older game Wild West Gold but the new one is the enhanced version. Which means that the new game has higher RTP.

Replay of the 1130x in this new game: https://replay.pragmaticplay.net/E66ZtXrFkI

Unfortunately I lost all the winning in above game while I tried the other new games Jewel Rush and Zeus vs Hades.

This is my last game in a few days ago.

I tried to follow you playing this game, but I still lost $4. With a bet of $0.10, I use Buy Spins for $15 and select Hades.

I got 10 FS which was not good enough to give me won and still lose.



And finally, I only won $11,34. If there is a Buy Spins feature in a game, I will buy it to see if my luck is coming or not.
But it is not a problem since we know that it is a gambling game. Perhaps, I will have better luck to win this game.

Congrats on winning, although you lost all the winnings. It is sad. But I am sure you will get another winning on the other slots games. Yes, that situation often accompanies us when we try to play other games.

Next time, when you win, better to stop as soon as possible and enjoy the winning money.

[Doell]

Slots? Damn. Very Nice !
As usual, unexpected luck I got x100 on the Olympus (grandpa zeus), but unfortunately it can't be maxwin. Why only x100? wasn't x500.
This is my winning result guys : https://replay.pragmaticplay.net/EAFf9DJN7u
If it's x500 caught, maybe I can get Maxwin in one round, I got it while playing Normal Spin, I didn't expect got win.

I haven't even tried this new game yet because I'm still too busy with Sweet Bonanza which made me lose yesterday. a decent 1130x multiplier btw, but I think if you get at least 10 more free spins I believe you'll have maxwin.

it belongs to you and which has become your fortune. very rarely reach maxwin outside of bonus rounds.
unless you buy the spin feature.

What currency is this btw?
Zeus usually doesn't connect  tumble when it drops 100x or above, once I got 500x but only one connection that was half of my base bet
