My 5th Entry: https://www.askgamblers.com/forum/topic/13040-slots-with-guaranteed-win-free-spins/

When we play a slot game, we aim to get a win...any win, but preferably a good big one, which we don't always get. Wins can come in the base game, by getting symbols on winning lines, or by getting feature games, either triggered by the relevant symbols, or via Bonus/Free Spins Buy features in newer games. Free spins come in various kinds, in various free spins amount, and with various win multipliers, or simply without any, but there's one kind of free spins that I enjoy a lot...Guaranteed-win free spins! The first game that comes to my mind is none other than the popular 'Pimped' game, introduced by PlaynGo some years ago. In fact, many would think that PlaynGo was the first provider to introduce such a game with a guaranteed win on every free spin. The truth is, nope, it wasn't PlaynGo, it was Playtech! The game? Dolphin Reef. First launched way back in the early 2000s (can't recalI which year exactly), awards 5 free spins when triggered, plays with 2 full reels of Wilds (reels 2 and 4) for each free spin, and gives a win on every spin! It wasn't labelled as a Guaranteed-win kind of free spins though...that term was probably coined and made popular by PlaynGo, hehehe. Dolphin Reef is the last of 'My Magnificent Six' Playtech games. I have been playing this game ever since it's launch, and will continue playing it until it disappears, hahaha. I love playing Pimped and Holiday Season too, both by PlaynGo, but my local Asian online casino no longer provides PlaynGo games, so I rarely get to play these 2 games nowadays, unless I go and play at European casinos. There are also newer games by other providers that do have a similar guaranteed-win free spin offering, but I can only think of 'Golden Ticket 2' game (also by PlaynGo) at the moment. I know there may be more of such win-spins feature in other games, so if you do know of one or more, let's hear about it please. Would like to know them, and maybe get to try them out too one day, hehehe.

Hmm, okaaay, but none of those worry me. It's not like I'd be searching for some hot free call girls or something!

Why the need to use so many Search Engines? I hardly even use Yahoo or Bing. It's always Google for me, nothing else!

Yes, I do remember it very well indeed my dear, cos it became my target to beat...but is now impossible to beat! Why? Simply because the old games running on Flash were the originals...when converted into HTML5 versions, new changes were made to all the old Flash games, to suit the current market demand and supply situation. In other words, the newer HTML5 versions are, and never will be, better than the Flash versions! Take Safari Heat for example. The most retriggers I could get nowadays on the HTML version is 15, but there were many more 'misses' that should have taken the total to about 20 retriggers, so I figured that 15 retriggers is now the maximum number that any game can give. Heavenly Ruler may be at 20 retriggers max, maybe a little bit more, because of the game's very low paytable. Getting 5 Scatters would pay only 20x the total bet, as opposed to Playtech's standard of 200x-500x.

I have played Bikini Party many times before but the game never caught my interest...most of the payouts weren't satisfactory enough for me, unlike Beach Babes, which is a clone of Supe It Up, with the same huge winning potentials. Somehow, Beach Babes one day suddenly disappeared from Microgaming list of games and I couldn't play it anymore. Wild Beach Party looks like yet one more cloned game by Pragmatic. That's the only thing that Pragmatic knows to do, cloning and cloning of their games! DEAD BORING!!! Will I try out that new game? NO! Will I play that game in the Social Tournament? NO! Need I say more? NO!

Well, it looks like it's one more typical Sunday at the forum...everybody is everywhere but here!

My 4th Entry: https://www.askgamblers.com/forum/topic/13038-slots-that-give-lots-of-free-spins-retriggers/

I play only on slot games, and I play only on games that provide a free spins feature. No such feature, no play from me. No retriggers, maybe only one trial game from me. That's the kind of slot player that I am. When I say a free spins feature game, I mean the kind that awards 15 or more free spins, and with a fixed multiplier included. Some feature games award free spins without any multipliers at all, I simply hate this kind, whilst some others need to get the multiplier symbol during the free spins...no symbol, no multiplier, and I hate this kind as well. What I also don't like is the kind that awards a lousy amount of free spins each time, like 6, 7, or 8. I can accept 10 free spins with a good multiplier, otherwise, I won't like it either. Nowadays, almost all newer games award only 6-8 free spins, and needing to get the multiplier symbols to boost up the wins. Games like Buffalo Blitz and Epic Ape from Playtech, for example, awards 8 free spins, plus +5 more free spins with each 2 appearing Free Spins symbols. Most times though, the payouts would be peanuts! Megaways games do not give extra free spins easily, but do not always pay much extra either. So, what kind of free spins feature games am I interested in? The kind that starts with 15 or more free spins, has a fixed multiplier of 3x or higher, and can provide many retriggers as well. Sad to say, NONE of the newer games are capable of providing these. The games that do provide them are very few in numbers, and are mostly old games, which younger generation players tend not to like. Not me of course. I have been playing them regularly for the last 10-20 years, and these few games have now become My Magnificent Six games. All six are Playtech games, the best of its kind! The games that gave the most retriggers are: #1 Heavenly Ruler. A 30 lines game, awarding 15, 25 or 50 free spins (3, 4 or 5 Scatters) with a random 2x, 3x, 5x or 8x multiplier for each free spin. Each retrigger awards 15, 25 or 50 more free spins. The maximum number of retriggers obtained so far is 20, for a total of 335 free spins. Pity that the paytable is on the low side, otherwise this game would be my number 2 top favourite game! #2 Safari Heat. A 15 lines game, awarding 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier. Each retrigger awards 15 more free spins, regardless of 3, 4 or 5 triggering Scatters. The maximum number of retriggers obtained so far is 15, for a total of 240 free spins. Have gotten a few times of all 5 Scatters during a free spins feature game, for a single 1500x bet win. #3 True Love. A 15 lines game, awarding 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier. Each retrigger awards 15 more free spins, regardless of 3, 4 or 5 triggering Scatters. The maximum number of retriggers obtained so far is 10, for a total of 165 free spins. Have gotten 9 times of all 5 Scatters during a free spins feature game, for a single 1500x bet win. #4 Panther Moon. A 15 lines game, awarding 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier. Each retrigger awards 15 more free spins, regardless of 3, 4 or 5 triggering Scatters. The maximum number of retriggers obtained so far is 9, for a total of 150 free spins. Have gotten only twice all 5 Scatters during a free spins feature game, for a single 1500x bet win. Games by other providers can boast of many retriggers as well, but I have yet to hear or see any player getting more than 5 retriggers at a time, on any game. If you do know of one, I would like to hear about it, because to me, most other providers only talk big about their games but 'normal players' would hardly ever get them!

A Magnificent game, in my books, refer to any slot game that keeps its promises, as indicated in its paytable, that keeps a player playing it again and again for many years on (not the play for a few months then game retired kind), and the kind of game that a player can rely on to get regular good decent wins of 500x or more the total bet size. Almost all new games would not provide these characteristics...they are mostly 'here today gone tomorrow' kind of games...the kind that gives a player a nice big win early on, then leaves the player with only skin and bones left. My Magnificent Six games have all been fully tried and tested, over a period of about 20 years (+ or - a bit), and have proven their reliability, even after that horrible change from Flash into HTML5 versions. Nonetheless, they no longer play or pay as good as their Flash versions, but are still very worthy of regular playing.

And this winner will now be stuck with the tourneys for life! The fastest way to catch a prey!

Now that's what I call a regular...an active regular! Not the 'here today gone tomorrow' kind, or the 'maybe, maybe not' kind either. Active regulars are become a rare species here in the forum, for one reason or another, and I also would like my statue to be in Askgamblers Museum!

I don't really know if its the unlucky Fridays for you bro, or that you simply were playing on the wrong games. By wrong games, I always refer to megaways and allways games that promise thousands and thousands of winning lines and chances but actually giving out peanuts instead. Maybe you should try playing your better games on another Friday and see if the results are just as poor.

My 3rd Entry: https://www.askgamblers.com/forum/topic/13036-is-this-kyc-nope-its-kyr/

Okaaay, so we gamblers all know what a KYC is, right? No KYC approval means no casino account to play with, including no depositing and no withdrawing of winnings. But what is KYR you may be asking? Well, it's a term I have come up with, to be useful for new members at the forum whenever they need assistance of any kind. KYR stands for Know Your Regulars, simple as that, hehehe. If you're new to this community, then you should first know that the forum is run and moderated by a team of staff, each with special duties, but moderation of the forum itself is by @cocopop3011. One new member once mistook the name for a 'he', but it's actually a 'she', so let's not confuse that again shall we? If you're not a staff member, then you are a normal member within this community. Some are active, most are passive, each having their own reasons for being so, but we are more concerned about the active regular members here, so let's get to know them very briefly. @Afi4wins Joined December 4, 2013. Is the longest active member in the forum. Has extensive experiences on casinos and games, and holds the titles of 'Playtech & Supe It Up Master' and 'Winner Screenshot Virtuoso'. Gives practical advices most of the time. @blondie Joined March 27, 2014. Holds the title of 'Queen Of Twin Spin'. Was a very active Twin Spin player but not nowadays. Likes to try out new casinos and games, but not as fervently as some years before. @Fiekie247 Joined November 4, 2015. Holds the titles of 'Casino Tournaments Master' and 'Winner Screenshot Virtuoso'. Likes to try out almost all new casinos and games, so if you have a question regarding one, try asking him first! @Flatzem Joined July 28, 2016. Has become more active in the forum nowadays. Loves doing all kinds of statistics, so much so that he's sometimes called 'The Wingman'. @Blackjax Joined June 29, 2018. One more member who likes to try out new casinos and games. There have been a few more regular members here, but they have slowly faded away, so I've not mentioned them. There are also a few newer members who are occasionally active which I have not mentioned as well, but if you want to say something about them, please do so, hehehe.

Hahahaha...now we have THE WIZARD OF AG!

I was probably the first person to see and read on the contest, and I clearly read it as 1 topic per day, for 5 entries per day, and I was the first to ask a question anyway, hehehe.

I don't believe in any of those 117,649 ways or more ways to win...they are all 99,99% HYPE! Only 1 player in a million or more can ever get a win on those full lines....and most probably a streamer would get it, not real cash players. Hence I'm never interested in megaways games

My Entry for today... https://www.askgamblers.com/forum/topic/13029-the-good-old-wild-and-scatter-symbols/

I'm still walking down memory lanes, reminiscing the good old days of how wonderful and entertaining some slot games could be. Back then, a WILD and a SCATTER symbol would almost always be the top 2 paying symbols in any game, with the other regular symbols following behind. Getting 5 WILD symbols on a winning line would pay a very nice 250x - 500x win. Getting 5 SCATTER symbols would pay a 200x - 600x win, depending on the game. These were the two most sought after winning symbols, especially if won during a free spins feature game, whereby the win would be boosted up further by 2x, 3x, 5x or even 6x! Looking at the paytables of newer games, the WILD symbol now merely acts as a SUBSTITUTE for other symbols, to create wins...getting those WILD symbols would actually pay nothing! It has totally lost its golden value...however, at best, some games still do pay a marginal win of about 5x -20x, but that's a damn far cry from the good old days! Unfortunately, SCATTER symbols are also being treated in the same horrible way, thrashing out any win values that SCATTER symbols used to have...such a sorry and pitiful happening! Every time I look at a new game's paytable, I would see WILD and SCATTER symbols as non-paying...and find myself saying "WTF!!!" The younger generation of players simply do not know the value of those 2 precious symbols. What they see nowadays is the MULTIPLIER number instead...how big can it go...how easily can it be gotten...and that's all that matters to them. They don't care if the WILD and SCATTER symbols don't pay, as long as the MULTIPLIERS can generate huge but ELUSIVE wins of 10,000x and more. These players do not realise that they are being 'BLINDED BY THE BIG NUMBERS', so they go chasing after them day in and day out. Only when they have been bitten way too many times would they then realised the stupidity and foolishness of their chases! Nope, I will NEVER be one of them, hahaha.

Recovering from the last contest? Hmmm...doesn't seem like it...after all, only 4 players got involved, so what happened to all the other regulars, right?

Well, I haven't played at European casinos for ages now, except at a very few Highweb casinos, but nominating a Highweb casino for Best or Best New Casino would seem so pointless. I may be the only person nominating it! Hahaha.

Maybe too busy playing their slot games?

I had visited Venice a few times during my student days but never knew of the existence of Casino di Venezia. Would have taken a gondola ride and visited it. Too late to do that now, hahaha.

Honestly speaking, I really doubt if any new game can ever make it into my magnificent team. Everything about new games are pure rubbish, beautified to look gorgeous, ornamented to appear expensive and priceless...take away all those win ways and huge multipliers and they show their true value...not even 10% worth of a magnificent game!
