gotta place in the top 30 in the free qualifiers to win a free entry into the 1K3DS/2K3DS/3K3DS survivors. So far this year have won 8 free entries to the survivor tourneys and the 9th looks likely (for the 2K-3DS).

the 1K3DS starts on mondays. (no free entry to that this week), and the 2K3DS starts on wednesday (will get free entry into that by the looks via qualifier)

3 day survivor tourneys run every week.

1.50EUR each continue (up to 5 continues per buy-in) in a 1K3DS,..... then its 2.50EUR each in a 2K3DS and then 5EUR each in a 3K3DS.

But say you had a strong starting set of spins, even you might be tempted to spend on a continue or two to get yourself into that top 10 group. But it could be possible to not have to spend on continues in a tourney but so far that hasn't been the case for me and have always had to spend at least 2 continues.

late wd accepted... and taking the most recent 1K3DS , about 28 of 37 had used at least one continue in the final round. So we looking at 75% of the field and it's probably similar in other 1Ks and 2Ks and 3Ks. The rest will just play their free entry and not bother with spending on a single continue that's if they even remember to play their free entry.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney, 69 entrants, outside top 40 end of first round, inside top 10 at end of 2nd round and outside top 20 at end of 3rd round. (1 feature in Rd2) Anyway 59 moved to round 2 (49 had a spin), then 41 moved to round 3 and in round 3, 37 players had a spin. Five players that placed in the top 10 previous 1K3DS (one of them has a 4 1K3DS win streak and two have 3 1K3DS win streaks), made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 1 continue , first set was very low and so was the 2nd set and decided not to continue anymore.

Had a shot at the 2K3DS tourney (via free entry), 60 entrants, (outside top 40 end of first round, outside top 20 at end of 2nd round aaaaaand inside top 10 at end of 3rd round (first time ever to make the top 10 in a 2K3DS). (features in the 1st, 2nd and 5th sets of the 3rd round ) Anyway 51 moved to round 2 (unknown had a spin), then 36 moved to round 3, 38 had a spin) and in round 3, 31 players had a spin. Three players that placed in the top 10 previous 2K3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 5 continues (only really needed 4), first set was high, 2nd set was decent, 3rd and 4th were low, 5th was decent and 6th was low. No free entries won for next week so will probably only enter the 1K3DS.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney (via free entry), 74 entrants, (outside top 50 end of first round, outside top 40 at end of 2nd round aaaaaand inside top 10 at end of 3rd round. (1 feature in the first set of the 3rd round) Anyway 63 moved to round 2 (55 had a spin), then 44 moved to round 3, 47 had a spin) and in round 3, 41 players had a spin. Three players that placed in the top 10 previous 1K3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 5 continues (only really needed 4), first set was decent, 2nd set was very low scoring, and the 3rd set was very high scoring, 4th and 5th were decent and 6th was low. Also currently in the 2nd round of the 2K3DS (via free entry). This month there is a 100K March to Riches Slot tourney on the Finer Reels of Life. Same rules as previous 100K where 10EUR is entry fee and up to 4 continues at 10EUR each.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney (via free entry), 65 entrants, (outside top 20 end of first round, outside top 20 at end of 2nd round and outside top 20 at end of 3rd round. (no features in any round) Anyway 55 moved to round 2 (45 had a spin), then 39 moved to round 3, 42 had a spin) and in round 3, 36 players had a spin. Two players that placed in the top 10 previous 1K3DS, made the top 10 this time. (both players have been top 10 in the last 3 1K3DS tourneys) In round 3, used 2 continues, first set was ok, 2nd set was not as good, and the 3rd set was half good as the 2nd and it was decided not to do any more continues. And in the 10KMM, the first set was decent but not fully tempted to do continues this time, maybe with a better start. Next week will take a shot at the 1K3DS and 2K3DS (both likely with free entries).

Some updates: Had a shot at the 10K Midweek Moolah tourney (via free entry), 128 entrants. Anyway there was an issue with the reels not stopping and after several times of closing it and re-opening only managed to have a few spins on it before time ran out. Contacted support about this and they contacted MG and they confirmed the problem and said will get entry into the next Midweek Moolah. This problem probably affected only those that had the free entries. Meanwhile our friend 'chugger' managed a 2nd placing in the tourney for 1250EUR and a 1st place in the 2K3DS. On a positive note did get a top 5 in the 3 hour freeroll (Leagues of Fortune) yesterday (first time for the year) and also it looks likely I will get a free entry into the next 1K3DS tourney.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney, 66 entrants, (inside top 10 end of first round (2 features!), outside top 40 at end of 2nd round and didn't progress to the 3rd round. (first time ever not to progress to 3rd round). Anyway 56 moved to round 2 (49 had a spin), then 39 moved to round 3, 44 had a spin) and in round 3, all 39 players had a spin. Three players that placed in the top 10 previous 1K3DS have made the top 10 this time.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney, 69 entrants, (outside top 20 end of first round, outside top 20 at end of 2nd round and outside top 20 at end of 3rd round. (no features in any round, feature drought) Anyway 59 moved to round 2 (46 had a spin), then 41 moved to round 3, 36 had a spin) and in round 3, 35 players had a spin. One player that placed in the top 10 previous 1K3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 2 continues, first set was good (slightly better than the first set of my winning tourneys 1st set), 2nd set was less than half as good as 1st, and the 3rd set was half good as the 2nd and it was decided not to do any more continues.

I'd say he does up to 5 re-buys with 5 continues per re-buy. so if he does that in a 1K3DS then spend total up to 64 to win 100 (profit 36). If in 2K3DS then spend up to total 108 to win 200 (profit 92), and if in 3K3DS then spend up to 199.50 to win 300 (profit 100.50). These include the initial buy in and continues. Here are the winners list of the first 16 survivor tourneys of this year. There will be total of about 156 survivor tourneys this year thus we are at just over 10% point. results of first 16 survivor tourneys.bmp

Checked the stats and there is this one player: chugger ,that has been in the top 10 in each of the last 8 survivor tourneys, and looks certain to be in the top 10 of the current 3K3DS, that would make it top 10 in each of the last 9 survivor tourneys!. Some serious run good+re-buying for sure to achieve that. Not only that but he also got a top 20 in the recent 20K monthly monster where the top 20 won 1K EUR each.

I appreciate your support (as always) and will keep you updated (as always) and another win is most welcome (as always)

next 1K3DS starts Monday (as always) and won't be via a freebie.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney, 68 entrants, (outside top 20 end of first round, outside top 20 at end of 2nd round and outside top 20 at end of 3rd round. Anyway 58 moved to round 2 (51 had a spin), then 41 moved to round 3, (unknown # had a spin) and in round 3, 36 players had a spin. Two players that placed in top 10 previous 1K3DS, made the top 10 this time (one of them has three consecutive 1K3DS wins). In round 3, used 1 continue and since the first two sets were low scoring decided not to do any more continues, will probably use this rule for any future 1K3DS.

didn't have to deposit, just log in everyday and have one spin to see if it matches 3 symbols.

This month Betfair Casino had a promo Winter Warmer Slot "Feel the Heat", Free Spins up for Grabs everyday! some terms for it: This promotion is was for the period January 11 – 25, 00:00-23:59 GMT; 2017. You can log in to the ‘Winter Warmer Slot’ promotion page and take one spin, per customer, per day during the promotion period. Once you take your spin, you will receive a notification detailing whether you have received a prize or not. If you are successful and win you will receive a message with details of your free spins bonus. Prizes are distributed at random every day during the promotion period. This same promo ran last year too but at least last year it gave me 5 free spins on the last day (Jan 14-Jan 24).... This year however 0 ! all 15 days didn't match 3 symbols (3x cherries [5 free spins], lemons [10 free spins], logos [50 free spins]). Spoke to a couple of other people who also said they won nothing from this promo this year! When I questioned Customer Support about this months promo they said: "I am sorry to hear that. Unfortunately it is luck of the spin I am afraid. It works via a random number generator." Unfortunately this wasn't the first time that Betfair Casino ran a promo that failed to deliver. Last year they had that Euro Challenge promo that was so rigged with the goalkeeper being superman on crack. I wrote about it on this forum but here it is again as a reminder. It gave this result: Betfair Casino - Euro Challenge JUNE 10: result: 2 defenders and right side: goalie saved it. (1st kick) JUNE 11: result: 2 defenders and left side: goalie saved it.

(42nd kick) JULY 10: result: 2 defenders and right side: goalie saved it. (43rd kick) So anyway the RNG that they use for promos are obviously not checked to see if they are working correctly and it gives the worst feeling ever when you spend weeks on a promo to get nothing from it.

Had a shot at the 1K3DS tourney, (free entry), 57 entrants, (outside top 20 end of first round, outside top 20 at end of 2nd round. Anyway 48 moved to round 2 (45 had a spin), then 34 moved to round 3, (32 had a spin) and in round 3, 31 players had a spin. Two players that placed in top 10 previous 1K3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 3 continues aaaaaaand finally placed in the top 10 (3 features). The slot tourney losing streak has ended and went from -84.50EUR on tourneys to +11EUR profitland.

Had a shot at the 3K3DS tourney, (free entry), 60 entrants, (inside top 20 end of first round (one feature), inside top 20 at end of 2nd round (one feature). Anyway 51 moved to round 2 (46 had a spin), then 36 moved to round 3, (44 had a spin) and in round 3, 35 players had a spin. Two players that placed in top 10 previous 3K3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 5 continues but it was no use and finished inside of top 20 (no features!)(didn't re-buy). When will this losing agony come to an end? (its now 6 losing tourneys this year out of 6) (3x 1K3DS + 2x 2K3DS + 1x 3K3DS).... -84.50EUR loss on these tourneys. Also currently playing in the 1K3DS via a free entry. (moved to Rd2).

the next 1K_3DS starts Monday

Had another shot at the 1K3DS tourney, (no free entry), 60 entrants, (outside top 20 end of first round, outside top 20 at end of 2nd round. Anyway 51 moved to round 2 (41 had a spin), then 36 moved to round 3, (36 had a spin) and in round 3, 34 players had a spin. Four players that placed in top 10 previous 1K3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 5 continues but it was no use and finished outside of top 10 (two features)(didn't re-buy). Will probably take another shot at the next 1K3DS (its now 4 losing 1K3DS tourneys in a row and total of 5 losing tourneys so far this year out of 5 tourneys). (3x 1K3DS + 2x 2K3DS) Here are the winners list of the first 8 survivor tourneys of this year. The regs with their re-buys are getting the advantage of having more chances of placing in top 10. results of first 8 survivor tourneys.bmp

Had a shot at the 2K_3DS tourney, (free entry), 61 entrants, (outside top 20 end of first round), outside top 20 at end of 2nd round. Anyway 52 moved to round 2 (44 had a spin), then 36 moved to round 3, (33 had a spin) and in round 3, 31 players had a spin. Two players that placed in top 10 previous 2K_3DS, made the top 10 this time. In round 3, used 5 continues but it was no use and finished outside of top 20 (didn't re-buy). So far this year played in four survivor tourneys and finished outside of top 20 in all of them. Meanwhile there is a player that has played in all six survivor tourneys this year and has placed in the top 10 in all of them. No 2K_3DS next week for me as didn't win a free entry for it (no free entries won for any of next weeks survivors) and by the way it's been going so far this year that will save me 12.50e by not using them on the 5 continues if it went to the 3rd round.
