What do you think? Dare to play $5/spin in a slot with more than 400k max-win? For me, I'd stick to 5,000x max-win
FYI DOA 2 only has 111,111x max-win, and it's so tough.

No, I will not dare to play $5/spin in a slot, even if there are 400k max-win, because before I get that max-win, I will screw myself and lose so much money. Besides that, we do not know when the max-win will come and that is why we need to keep playing until the max-win comes. Besides, my bet for every spin is less than $1, so that $5 will be too big for me

He has his luck playing on that slot machine and won so much money. I wonder how much he already spent before hitting the max-win because I do not think he only spent $5 in one spin and hit the jackpot.

Yeah how many spins did he make before hitting thay mark of insane multiplier above 400k which is biggest I have ever seen ? But he was damn too lucky to hit that slot which his girlfriend insisted him to play and that was his luckiest day of life to hit this jackpot of $2.4 million.We could play but don't know we could have same luck or not and might end up losing hundred of dollars without hitting any max win.

Man, that's twice the last record, congrats to him! I'm rather curious as to how long he's been gambling or if he has an estimate of how much money he's spent on gambling already. Also based on the article it seems like his past biggest win was around $20,000? Compared to his current win that amount looks so damn small.

This. Maybe I'd play every now and then but I definitely would not try to even dare to win, especially in a 400k max-win. Maybe if I get a girlfriend who tells me to play slots .

I think when it is written for you that you are going to win the jackpot from God or some super natural power then you are going to win the jackpot.Having a supportive girlfriend in this kind of venture is a double edged sword as in this time this guy won the biggest jackpot in the history of that state but what if the girlfriend insisted on keeping playing slots and he would be bankrupted soon after if not winning big.There are always to sides to the story but this one it is with a beautiful ending and huge congrats to him in the end.

This is not his first jackpot win. Earlier he have won $20k win from the same casino, but on a different machine. His luck have come through his wife. There is no data on how many spins have been made before making such a big win. This is called pure luck, because if his wife haven't insisted he might've left the place. This looks like coincidence of luck and fate. If that was me, I could've made a maximum of 10 spins.

[Pmalek]

I wonder who is the lucky one: the player or his girlfriend who suggested which slot he should play? The amount he won is life-changing. I hope he doesn't change his girlfriend though and start dating models now that he has more cash to spend. It's also interesting that it's not the first time he wins significant amounts because a different slot machine netted him a $20.000 profit at a previous date.

I wonder what Washington tax laws are like and how big of a cut goes to the state with such wins?

[safari88]

What a lucky and blessed guy, right? @Vaskly has even mentioned that he have won a lot before, and that’s a significant amount as well. Luck is indeed a playful, unexpected, and a beautiful thing. I just hope that he doesn’t get addicted and make good use of his winnings so he won’t lose it instantly and regret later.

5$ per spin ?
No
The chances of you winning any game in penny slots is way more than the chances of you winning normally in a dollar slot, that's simple mathematics. Therefore I do think I would rather convert those dollars into pennies and then play some other slot, it's highly unlikely that a person wins, generally most of them will loose ofc and with that price, you might as well get a big hole in your pocket. {{You will get more chances to win in the penny slots}}
At the same time the percentage payment for the dollar slots is more tho. I once places 5$ slots, got 6 in didn't win anything, loss of money in that section, might as well play some games which does depend on your skills.

I beg to disagree though, $5 per spin might be expensive for the majority of us, but if you not looking for a quick jackpot but rather have the chance to get a good combination, the pay lines.

It just so happen that Lady Luck has smile on him and his spin a windfall.

So for me, if I have a deep pocket, I will rather play $5 per spin than playing on a penny slots.

I had once play on a $10 per spin, I forget how much initial capital I had but I got lucky and win around $4k just with pay lines hits alone.

He previously won $20k on different machine. Her girlfriend must have expect he will win something and surprisingly its the jackpot. Lucky man, her girlfriend is the real lucky charm. I guess he can now showcase his gallery.

Slot is the easiest game to play in the traditional casinos. Most newbie who had not decide yet which game to actually play will jist sit on slot machines just passing time drinking their whiskys. Thats why slot is the money maker of casinos. I will play few for 5/spin if I have extra, I'll never know my luck.

[Doell]

Really lucky to win on that, but lucky to have a girlfriend who supports him on gambling. Something that happens very rarely, I am personally strictly prohibited from gambling by my girlfriend. $5 for one spin, I wouldn't use it. I don't even want to think about it, except for 100 spins. I'm a small gambler who enjoys every spin, not want to try my luck only with $5 because this value is my balance that's can spend it, at slots.

[Johnyz]

Lucky to have a girlfriend who can support your gambling activities and guess what, it pays off.
Slots game are game of luck, he is so lucky to win the jackpot and now a title holder. Didn’t know the slot pays that much but yeah, it happened and for sure many will try to plat on that slot machine for a hope that they can get the same lucky charm. $5/spin is quiet big already for me, maybe I can also try to do this and see if the luck is still within me.

Slots are financial killing machines for those who cannot control their emotions during the game. $5/ spin is not for me but still possible for gambling whales. So don't be tempted by big jackpots if you can only play 100 spins for $1/spin. 

I wouldn't try my luck for 10-50 spins if I had enough money to play $5/spin. It's too risky to do especially for players who only expect pleasure in gambling. Maybe I will be tempted to do so if my crypto wallet is full of valuable items. LOL

This is quite simply explained: those who play slots win in slots. For example, my chance to win in slots is zero - I don't play them 
I hope he does not make a mistake and does not continue to gamble, but will try (for a start) to change his life - he won a significant amount and it will be very disappointing if it leaves as easily as it came.

Dare to play $5/spin in a slot with more than 400k max-win?

As for this question, I pass. I bet bigger on sports, but there I feel (even if it's self-deception) that I'm in control. Playing slots where you have to make a hundred spins to feel the game with a bet of $5 is too expensive for me.

[ryzaadit]

Hahahaha 5$.

I watch a landbase player in real-casino, and yeah indeed they more often to play with high base bet. The only annoying thing playing in land based casino is the cashout, only like 50x is trigger handpay and required attendance.

Maybe comparing to online slot, landabase have more often hitting.

Well apparently that guy already have won 20,000USD on other slot machine ^[1] in the past and is a common player in that casino (Tulalip Casino). Hence, 5$ bet is just common for him - a casual gambler so to say. But if you would ask a normal gambler who plays only when they have spare money or when they want to, then such bet would be worth a try but not worth to keep trying to achieve. Knowing the fact that physical slot machines is a pure random with 0.1% chance of winning the jackpot ^[2], only 0.1% percent of all gamblers as well would dare to try it. He's so lucky, having to had that chance, but others must not see it as 'their own' chance as well.

Personally, A big no for me unless I have the same financial capability as those persons who won the jackpot. That $5 per bet is nothing as they can afford to lose it. However, if that's their average or usual bet prior to winning the jackpot, I admire their guts to take the risks.

Like the famous quote, no pain no gain, no guts no glory, high-risk high rewards.

Also eyeing to win a jackpot for an average of $1 per bet. When will my time come?

[boyptc]

Maybe his girlfriend is the lucky ones? How much share she gets? 

Well, if I have a lot of spare money to gamble, why not? I would love to try it and I'll set a limit until when to stop if I'm not hitting that multiplier. It's really a rare moment for someone to get through that multiplier and win.

I think that the casino won't allow that to happen that another person would win with just a short period of time from the other win that has happened.

This is not his first jackpot win. Earlier he have won $20k win from the same casino, but on a different machine. His luck have come through his wife.

Gambling is a game with lot of lucks and tactics.To win a game, we should build our own tactics for a game. It may be a short running luck. But it's consistency will plays a huge role in the gambling.If he worried about his luck, he won't win this much lucky win.This was a pure luck to the person who believe the gambling. This huge win was a common one in a jackpot wins.As he said,it was happened with a different machine. His wife luck also played a major role in this game.
