Strategy tips (members only)
- Size your stake to the volatility. Low-to-medium volatility gives fairly regular hits with occasional bigger features. It is a balanced choice for steady play and bonus wagering. A simple rule: bring at least 150 spins' worth of budget, so a $50 budget suggests a stake of about $0.33.
2 more tips and a session planner
- Bonus wagering: at 96.95% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $30.50 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.
- Set limits before you spin. Decide your loss limit and session time in advance and stop when you reach either. No pattern or betting system changes the outcome of a spin.
