Buy a Bonus VS playing Slot on normal Spin - which do you prefer?

[swogerino]

Hi gamblers,

So, I was playing a Slot game( sweet bonanza to be precise), was betting the minimum which is $0.2 for a spin, got lucky at some point and won a bonus of 10 free spins, this bonus came after I spinned the very last of my account balance, this means that, if I had lost, it would have been the end of the game for me since I would have zero balance to continue playing.

But it seems luck was on my side, I won 10 free spins, so I continued the game by playing the 10 spins, and by the end of the spins, I won a total of $54 dollars, I was super happy, I paused play for a while, thinking whether to continue to stop and withdraw that money, $54 wasnt my target, I was hoping for more, I wanted to try and see if I can win big money like the testimonies I often read online and on this forum, I was anxious for maybe a $100k or more win, so I called a friend who also loves playing Slot, told him about my win and explained what I hoped for, he then asked me to buy a Bonus, he said $40 spent on bonus can give me up to 20 free spins, after the discussion, I ended the call, and decided to do some research before deciding whether to buy bonus or not, and from what I realized, many buy bonus, and still end up losing, that simply means that, buying a bonus is guarantee for a win in slot game, I decide not to buy any bonus, I continued with normal Spin and unfortunately, I ended up losing around $47 dollars, I managed to withdraw $5 to my wallet from the $54 dollar win. 😭 By the way, I started the game with around $2 deposit 🤣.

So, I am here to ask, buying a bonus and playing on normal spins in slot game, which so far, has been more profitable for or to you?

Very few times you can make a substantial profit when you start playing slots that offer you a bonus buy feature at least is my personal experience and my near max wins in such slots have always when buying the bonus,of course it can become pretty boring waiting to hit a huge win through a bonus but when it hits it really hits.It is a total different story if you play slots that do not offer the buying feature,in such type of slots to check thoroughly and not have regrets I suggest having at least 100 dollars and playing with minimum bet so you can rest assured that you will hit the bonus a couple of times and hopefully you can enjoy a big win.

I only use a small amount of money from my earning so I have a very limited bankroll.  With that I always go for hunting the bonus through spins.  Since I play slots to pass the time and add color to the monotonous activity,  I tend to feel the game through spinning bonus rounds rather than buying them.

And it is also fulfilling if we happen to spin the bonus round and the possibility of taking profit is also huge since we only spend a little amount to trigger the bonus round unlike buying them which cost around 80x to 500x the base bet.

Well if you want to experience the bonus round then I guess you should avail of the buy bonus. In the beginning, I was not aware of it because I used to play on landbase casinos and there is none of this buy bonus.

But when I play online games, and when I saw this features, I will just readily get and opt to play with it.

However, as slots are base on luck, doesn't matter though if you get the buy bonus or work your way up on a regular bonus. If you are not not lucky enough you might end up losing in the end.

Nowadays, seeing on Facebook or any media streams on which there would really be those influencers who do really make out those kind of behavior on buying out those bonuses and ended up on
getting that huge wins but i do really that having that kind of thinking that these fellas are really just that showing the only positive specially into those videos that they are sharing off not unless
if its a live stream then result would be real time. I have seen that there are several people make out that huge hit and of course there are ones who do really loses up that big.

Just like on what you have said that it doesnt matter whether you do buy bonus or would be making that normal spin. If you are lucky then you do make money but if not then
you would be just basically be bowling up your capital in a snap. Preference would really be that depending on the money that you do have because if you've seen that you do still have that ample
amount that you could make use on then most likely you would really be that doing such thing. It cant really be just that avoided that bonus spins is on where money do come from. lol

whether buying a bonus or playing slots on normal spins is more profitable depends on individual preferences, risk tolerance, and luck. It's essential to consider factors such as budget, desired level of excitement, and the specific features of the slot game when making this decision. Additionally, practising responsible gambling and setting limits on spending can help ensure a positive and enjoyable gaming experience.

Luck would be the main factor and just like on what others been mentioning that it doesnt matter whether you are having that buy bonus or normal spin, if you are lucky on that time or moment then you would really be winning money or making profits. Risks tolerance is something that will really be that in next in concern on which not all would really be that mindful in regard to that. Are these influencers using up demo accounts? Its not something new and its been known already and this is why as a viewer you should really be that careful on not to make yourself getting influenced just because you do believe that you could easily win up into those slots games that they are playing into. This is where marketing do really works on which trying to hook people via making those game sessions to be interesting.

I don't think I've had any good profit from either of them really. There were times when I wanted to go fast and feel the thrill so I bought the offered bonuses every now and then. I won some, then lost it immediately a few moments later so yeah. I have won at the very least, so it is a lot easier to profit (with bigger margins) compared to normal spins but you still have to get lucky.

And tbf in your case op, if the end result was that you're still going to end up playing more, just buy the bonus imo.

Hi gamblers,

So, I am here to ask, buying a bonus and playing on normal spins in slot game, which so far, has been more profitable for or to you?

It will only be profitable if you're lucky to get the buy bonus and win. Because there is no guarantee as slot is luck base. So for me, I might as well go for a normal spin and see if I will get the bonus or not. At least I will be enjoying this way, although I don't have anything about those gamblers who chooses to go and uses buy bonus because it's a feature that could work for them.

But the end of it all we all know with RTP, everything is still base on luck regardless if you won and get a normal spin bonus with 10 spins or a buy bonus with 20 spins.

I honestly don't get why people buy bonus rounds. It's not like they are winning higher jackpots when cost and risk with them is so high that it barely makes sense to use them.

And like you described the situation, it's way more rewarding to get those free spins via regular bets. And it keeps the whole game worth playing really. Even if someone is arguing that statistically you are using same amount of money for them, i would argue that luck is what we are here for anyway. High wins with small bets are the dream. Otherwise i would be just betting more on small multipliers. But i can't really see why that's worth the risk. That's not why i play and one reason i am not interested in blackjack for example.

But i get that is a personal preference and not all gamblers are looking for that. If i trusted that i could make money by slowly grinding with low multipliers, i would totally do that as well.

I will first of all say that you won big with just $2 and you won $54, that should have made your day great assuming that you quit the game. But I can understand that greed will not make us know when to stop playing because we are not satisfied with our wins, and will want more wins, which will finally end to losing all our bankroll. Why is it just too hard to let go of our bet when winning or losing, even though we claim to be a responsible gambler.

The OP had mentioned of 54$ as their final outcome,So he was in the profit in the process.It was better to do the withdrawal after seeing the 54$ rather try out of the multiple the money.Because money multiplication in the gambling was not the easy one.The greedy was the cause for the loss in the gambling,it should be understandable one if you are not addicted in the gambling.But the gamblers who was in the gambling addiction will never stop the game after the win of 54$ in the free spin.

Buying bonus or playing normal spin is the same, because when it is not your lucky game, you will lose the game, but if it is your lucky game, you will win it. Just like what happened to OP, he was lucky to win 54 bucks with 10 free spin, and assuming he bought the 20 free spin, he will still lose, just as he lost.

If the gambler had a luck,the 20 spins was the enough one.Because some game in the gambling will bring all your previous gambling losses.The gambler who doesn’t have trust in a luck can do the gambling with the random play.The number of spin is really doesn’t important one,the money making from the spin was the important one.The gambler who have experience will do the immediate withdrawal after the winning.

Sometimes you may buy a bonus and you may never win, why some other times you may be able to win something from the bonus which you bought.
These things do not take a regular pattern so it will be difficult for any gambler to know which one has been more profitable for them because it is all based on random events. Even if a gambler is able to recall which has been most profitable to them, it in no way increases their chances of winning he next time they gamble.

I ended up losing around $47 dollars, I managed to withdraw $5 to my wallet from the $54 dollar win. 😭 By the way, I started the game with around $2 deposit 🤣.

You have the crying face and laughing face emoji which describes your mood at that time. I once had a similar situation but I stopped the game and withdrew the money before it would go down below the minimum required amount for withdrawal.

No, I haven't bought bonus however I am feeling motivated by your stories to buy and hope that I will be lucky just like some of you are here. This is the essence of being in the gambling board, to test and try out stuff that has worked out for other members.

Long before there was a feature to buy scatters or free spins, the thing that was really looked forward to was being able to get scatters even though you had to do tens to hundreds of spins to get them. Because at that time, the results you got when you got a skater never disappointed, you could always hope for it and rely on it. And this is very different from what I am currently experiencing, where whether I get a skater for free through normal rounds, or by buying it, most of the skaters that I get and buy, the content is mostly zonk... and very disappointing. So I intend to stop visiting and playing slot games... because the comparison is very far, let's say I bought the skater for 10 USD in the Gates Of Olympus slot game from Pragmatic Play, well the results I got from buying the skater, from fifteen free spins , the content is at most around 2 USD, maybe even less, and the biggest result I ever achieved when buying a skater, it was just the return on capital of purchasing the skater. Likewise, when you get a sakter for free, the contents are not that much. And this is really crazy, to the point that I think that it seems that currently slot gambling games are deliberately designed to suck up the balances of gambling site visitors.

I don't buy a bonus spin. For me, it's too expensive. Worst, it can be addictive.

What I see as the worst of it is that the gambling sites have house edge in one way or the other. If you use bonus buy or playing without using bonus buy, it is most likely that your money is going to those gambling sites. Gambling is just for fun and not should be seen as a way to make money. If a gambler is having money that he can afford to lose for bonus buy, he can go for it. I am not using bonus buy and I gamble just with little amount of money.

I think regardless of the method of Play either buy bonus or not, you have to depend largely on your luck to be able to win, just as act have rightly said gambling should be for fun and nothing else so when you win some amount you have to appreciate your luck and seize from playing instead being desperate to have a big win.


Your profiting and is in your ability to take off the money from the casino and stopping for a while instead of pushing for more win that will eventually lead you to lose the amount you already won.

[Miles2006]

The situation is kinda funny a little but I guess average number of gamblers experience this a lot not knowing what to do at this moment is pretty funny, i have tried playing both but it’s best you go for one and then you try the other another day instead of trying both same day, I earn using both but not as usual cause it’s not guarantee you must be lucky always. Definitely we must decide our favorite so I will go for bonus play and I think you should try it so you’ll decide what’s best, honestly speaking slot games can be difficult to win but I guess you’re lucky enough at this point. You can always try and try if only you’re patience enough and lucky

With all due respect to everyone's choices, which are certainly not the same and some of them may lack logic, but I actually consider all slot games a waste of time and a waste of money without any satisfactory benefits.
The idea of gambling in general was created on the basis of bets that are either on sports games such as football or horse racing, or within the framework of social competition such as poker or even roulette. All these options are subject to the factor of luck, which cannot be subject to human intervention and cannot be affected by any external factors. In sports betting, you rely on luck to predict who will win, and in card games, you rely on luck resulting from the random distribution of cards.
Now let's look at slot games. They are games that are programmed by developers, who in turn adjust their settings to be compatible with House winnings. Even the possibility of profit from it is in the form of a percentage of the bankroll collected from all players, which is often not a large percentage. In short, it is similar to a systematic fraud operation with complex mathematical algorithms. So any strategy that is followed will be pure absurdity.

Buy bonus is a faster way you can win higher or lose faster. It makes the wining and the losses to be very fast. I have tried it before like three times but I lost money very fast. I decided not to use it anymore. But if buy bonus gives you a win, it can be up to $100 or more. Someone that I know used it to win over $200 with $60. What I prefer more are free spin which has made me won over $200 before with just $20 but I rarely see free spin. The winning was very fast but I think I was just very lucky that day.

So buy bonus just works like a leverage. The greater the leverage the higher the multiple it would have for losing money or the other way around for making money. Well, if that's the case then only use it when most odds are in your favor so that the leverage would work for you and not against you. And more importantly is to enjoy the game and last in game until you are in profit. Because in gambling it's very easy to make money, what's difficult is to keep that money and not give it back to the casino. And in keeping your profits, it's no longer about luck but more about discipline and self-control.

lol
I love the fact that you add that you were just very lucky that day and sincerely, I don’t think slot is a skilled game but rather more of luck than any other thing and just like referral bonuses or any other form of bonus, buying bonus is just more like a form of enticement the casino uses to lure gamblers into gambling more because personally I think you’ll lose more buying bonus than playing normally.
I would prefer free spins but just as you know, free spins are very hard to come by and it’s always painful when you lose them but I will prefer free spins to buying bonus anytime.

[dansus021]

In normal days I would play slot on regular spin so just normal spin and when money is at the last drip I usually buy a bonus spin both are actually same in my opinion all depend on the luck hahahha last time bet on mahjong buy bonus spin but still won nothing hahaha

With all due respect to everyone's choices, which are certainly not the same and some of them may lack logic, but I actually consider all slot games a waste of time and a waste of money without any satisfactory benefits.

Yeah and it is your choice some people just like playing slot heck the game is very popular most of the gambling site has it take example of duelbits now the site had lot of slot provider and each provider had bunch of game. Tho playing game is consider as waste of time and i mean by all game not just slot but most people found it playing game is fun including slot

So, I am here to ask, buying a bonus and playing on normal spins in slot game, which so far, has been more profitable for or to you?

both will be very profitable if you are lucky, and I'm sure everyone will say this.
from experience, I still remember getting maxwin with just 1 spin in the Fruite Party game from a pragmatic provider and I also spent the budget I had playing on slots with normal spin of up to 5000 more spins.
and when purchasing bonus spins, I have also gotten maxwin, but usually after the 4th or 5th purchase, but sometimes I don't get anything after spending my budget on buying bonus spins.
and after a lot of experience I started to have my own management if at least I would use normal spins around 2000-3000 spins and if I didn't get anything I would usually buy the spin bonus 3 times and if I still didn't get good results I would leave the slot game.

It's just about when you are lucky and if luck is on your side, maybe with normal spins or buying bonus spins you will still get very big profits but if you are not lucky, normal spins and buying bonuses will look annoying.

[Bitinity]

I have never bought any bonus on slot games but after reading many stories, I found that the ones with bonus might get much higher multipliers sometimes. I'm personally not sure so I can't say anything accurately. However, I would personally avoid bonus and play normal spin.

There is no guarantee obviously, buying bonus can be very crazy when you are out of luck. I have experienced few times when I got losing streak while using bonus buy. If I remember it correctly, there was a time when I did not even make profit after doing more than 10 buy bonus continuously. On the other opportunity, few bonus buy can give consecutive nice wins, so it depends on luck, no doubt about it. If you dont like it and if you are not sure to do it, better to stay as what you used to do with normal spins.
