Slots 101: Basics, Strategies, and Discussion (with poll)

~ Hahaha this provider is not one of my favorite providers so I never play games from this provider unless participating in a challenge, I'm not saying this provider is bad just that I'm not familiar with it, even when some people share some of their winnings it hasn't caught my attention yet I prefer hunting in Pragmatic and Nolimit City, especially in newly released games. Last month I managed to get Maxwin at Gates of Olympus, here if you want to watch  unfortunately I can't cash it out you definitely know the reason, I was too ambitious and kept hunting for other games until I finally rungkad 

So far I haven't had any big wins even new games seem to ignore me one of which is Sugar Supreme Powernudge, I made 30 buy spins only got one win/ROI around x200 of the base bet and after that this game continues to suck up the balance  This is the first time I've seen a game from Pragmatic suck faster even though the maxwin is only x5000 I would understand if the maxwin was x10000 because the difficulty level is 2x higher.

Wow, you won 5,000x of your bet, and lost it all the same day? I just googles it and "rungkad" means "to lose" in Javanese, right?

Did you increase your bet size after winning, or what? I can't imagine how you could lose all those money otherwise.

I thought the maximum win in the Gates of Olympus was bigger than 5,000x, to be honest. Anyway, even though you lost it, Congrats on hitting the highest win possible! It's not every day that happens.

+1 for the replay and crazy x750 tumble with the crown symbol win
Just like a wise man says "Easy to get, easy to lose..." It's definitely one of the hardest things to do in gambling, to stop after you win.
After getting IDR 7 million, our brain keeps screaming to play again for IDR 30 million... And since the timing of the win is random, we will keep playing if we haven't tired from playing. Been there, done that mate.

I was playing Ragna's Rock by GameArt:

I've just tried this game and am quite surprised GameArt actually improves a lot. A few years ago their game was crap, but now it seems on par with other big providers.

The only GameArt games that I've played are 88 Riches and Lady Luck, it was few years ago when I was still my early stage of my gambling journey.
GameArt can be said as one of the oldest providers in this industry but they do not launch new games regularly like the other providers.
Good thing is that they follow the trend a bit by having bonus buy feature, having new grid setup and new style/theme of their new games.
Their global promotions is also not much compared to other providers such as Pragmatic, PlaynGo, etc.
Maybe they are now in the process of upgrading their games and services in order to be competitive with the other top providers.

Yes, in the past they used to be on the shitty side in my opinion too, slots by GameArt. No wonder they weren't presented on many famous gambling sites. But look at them now.

Ragna's Rock and Fate’s Fury, for example




They are definitely worth trying out. I'm not saying it's guaranteed that you'll make money, but fun, fun is guaranteed, that's for sure.

And the fact that using VPN can influence the results in game is truly unbelievable, in fact I think discourse like this is just nonsense.
In fact, VPN is only used to change the IP address or divert the IP address for a specific purpose.

That's right, VPN only directs the original IP to the Virtual IP, that's its only function. Not to help slots players to win the jackpot. However, the myth that exists here, to increase the potential jackpot apart from using a VPN, is the assumption that the server, device, account ID, playing time, room (the initial symbol that appears when opening a game) is become a way to make it easier for someone to win the jackpot. Even though all of that has nothing to do with it at all. systems and programs have been created in such a way as to ensure symbols appear randomly. The results for the user are in accordance with the user's own luck.

Yes, that the only advantage of VPN and some people think VPN can influence the results. When you first read a statement like that, it little surprising and little funny because what is being said is just myth that can't be trusted.
I once used VPN on site that was difficult for me to access using the IP address on the PC I was using and tried using VPN by first asking for solutions and opinions from the support team so that I could access it using VPN.
Returning to the discussion regarding using VPN, when I play slots, I can only access one provider, namely Pragmatic, and other providers cannot be accessed using VPN.
It can be concluded that the use of VPN also cannot expand in playing because for other providers we are more limited.

And what you say is true and that is how slots work where everything is set by random system or what can be called RNG and this kind of algorithm can only be beaten with luck.

That's the best thing in Gates of Olympus and some other similar Pragmatic games, big win can be hit during normal spins because the big multiplier can come anytime.
Anyway, with this 500+, did you manage to win the 1st place of the multiplier leaderboard on the day you hit it?
Just checked today's leaderboard and it seems that the current leaderboard has the highest multiplier because the top 3 places are all with 1000+.
There is also a new game by Pragmatic which has exactly the same mechanism as GoO namely Grace of Ebisu, have you tried it?

a good hit, a moment that all bettors need in every spins , you don't need a bonus but you get the jackpot.

I once got a small multiplier when the reel was good enough on 5 rabbits megaways, with a total win of 600x. maybe if I get a 15x multiplier I can get maxwin or at least get close, but my luck is too small maybe  :p

Wow, it looks cool, the fish are neatly lined up. Unfortunately you only get a multiplier of 2. Do you get it on normal spins?

I wonder why people can get high multipliers while I play slots at pragmatic providers always bad. So I want to forget about the pragmatic provider that used to be my favorite provider

Yup its from normal spins

Actually I have same arguments with you, I move from Pragmatic to Spadegaming also to PGSoft and sometimes play in Play n Go, but from other Pragmatic, I rarely got high multiplier in bonus or even normal spins. only, spadegaming give me better results than PGsoft. So, IMO, pragmatic still better to get a big win than others. Of course, everyone have own experience. Maybe you need to take a rest from pragmatic for few weeks, and back again after, maybe you will get better results. So far, the most easiest win for me, 5 lions megaways, 5 rabbit megaways, Fruit Party, Buffalo King. Olympus is favorite for a lot of members, but i don't know its really hard for me to get a big win.  never asked to roycilik, because all of game under his control LOL

Great, you are someone who can really always get lucky in slot games.
Some people are amazed by every game session you play because you can solve the multiplier by quite large amount.

It been almost month since I don't visited Gates Of Olympus because I only got defeats and I was too focused on Starlight Princess and Bonanza.
This gives little feeling of curiosity and a little excitement to try playing few rounds in Gates Of Olympus.
By the way I want to ask little about this sensational win, how many spins did you take to get this win?

[panjul07]

Anyone here know which casino (except bitcasino) that provide a game by Pragmatic namely Saiyan Mania?
I found this game when I visit the Live RTP page at bitcasino and it gain my interest to look the game and to test the game.
Preferably casinos where there is a feature to change the bet value into different currencies such as IDR so it can be cheaper
This is how the game looks like:



I'm interested with this game because it reminds me of my childhood when I loved to watch Dragon Ball every Sunday morning
The game has maximum win of x5000, so maybe it will be good game to play compared to other Pragmatic games with higher max win.

Holy Mother of God!




570x of your bet just through a base spin? No bonus round, no nothing? Congrats, mate! $570 is a big money in any part of the world!

I went to play Gates Of Olympus rigth away after seeing yor post. And with my very first spin I got 3 scatters



but you need 4 for a bonus round in this game.

And in my next spin I got a Tumble win



and it was more than 10x of my bet, but it's incomparable to yours. Congrats again!

Hello guys... i have a question about slots.

Look at this situation: I am playing a certain slot with 0.50$ stake, next spin would pay 10x.... but what happens if i increase/decrease stake before that spin that was supposed to pay 10x??

So basically, i am asking if changing stake size affects payout or given RTP at that time..

[mu_enrico]

Look at this situation: I am playing a certain slot with 0.50$ stake, next spin would pay 10x.... but what happens if i increase/decrease stake before that spin that was supposed to pay 10x??

There's no way you can predict that the next spin would yield a 10x win. Each spin is random and independent of each other.
In the case of the slot having progressive mechanics like collecting wild (for example Bronco Spirit etc.), you'll lose progression after you change your base bet.

If the progression isn't lost after changing the base bet, tell us here mate what the title is so we can taste the sweet glitch

The same may happen in game like Razor Shark may also change the game especially when we get seaweed symbols on the reels.
Lets say we are betting 0.2 earlier and get some seaweed symbols on the top of few reels which is a good sign that there will be higher chance to win something.
But if we increased or even reduced the bet size, the game will be reset and the seaweed symbol will gone.
I'm not sure if there is a connection between betsize and the RTP, but I dont think that changing betsize will affect the RTP.

Yeah, casinos need to ensure they only provide services to the people from countries they are legally allowed to.

People with VPNs cannot easily be traced to their original country, so it's hard for casinos to enforce their rules.

In the end, it's risky to use a VPN because if you win big they might actually do a check and if found that you used a VPN, especially from a country where they cannot provide the service, then you will be out of luck and get no money. And they would be allowed to do that.

I'm interested in this progression thing. I was playing Candy Jar Clusters by Pragmatic Play the other day, and I'd noticed that there were these jars to the right of the reels



collecting balls/candies like this



and I mistakenly thought that when the jar is full you are immediately getting free spins or something. But when nothing like that happened, and I kept playing and adding new balls to the full jars, I think I've figured out what the progression is. With collecting balls you are just increasing your chance of getting free spins from, say, 0.1% to 0.2%. Your chance is still very slim, but it's true that it keeps increasing with every new ball collected.

What do you guys think?

Your chance is still very slim, but it's true that it keeps increasing with every new ball collected.

From the info (i) section, it's clear that there's no such progression... the jar is only for cosmetics since the feature spin will be triggered randomly upon the collection of the candies. IMO this cosmetic thingy is like the Caishen series when the pot keeps getting filled when you collect wild symbols, but by no means it will increase the chance of triggering feature spins. Thus, you get this feeling of a 0.1% to 0.2% increase in probability simply because you are playing more and longer. I mean it's like a gambling fallacy when you feel that you'll trigger the feature spin if you keep playing...

If the candy jar is used in progression mechanics, it will 100% reset after you change your base bet.

The same may happen in game like Razor Shark may also change the game especially when we get seaweed symbols on the reels.
Lets say we are betting 0.2 earlier and get some seaweed symbols on the top of few reels which is a good sign that there will be higher chance to win something.

Yep the progression will reset, otherwise, we will up the stake

So there is a strategy to do slots   Yesterday I just tried a new game from the pragmatic you know companies always find a new way to create a new game and yesterday there was a truck and a car in a neighboring city that had a pragmatic play sticker on it.   and that is a lit

btw back to demo, the pragmatic gives 100K and I bet around 240$ per spin. try it auto with 6 spins I already earn 5.6K and i don't know why in the demo I always win
