Back in the early years of 2000s, Playtech released a game entitled ‘Great Blue’, a 25 lines game with a minimum starting bet of $0.25 per spin. Most other Playtech games would start with a $0.15 minimum bet per spin, so Great Blue was not a commoner, so to speak, hehehe. Getting 3 Scatter symbols would award a free spins feature game...pick 2 of the 5 Shells to determine the number of free spins and multiplier...from 8 free spins with a 15x multiplier, up to 33 free spins with a 2x multiplier. This game became a hot favourite with players very quickly indeed...myself included! There was a time when one local player got all 5 reels of full Wilds, won the maximum win limit of RM250,000, got paid in stages, but then Playtech later locked the game for many months thereafter! When the game finally came back, it never played, nor paid, as good as the original version, so that was very disappointing indeed! I have played Great Blue since its launch, but didn’t play it as regularly as my other few games though, simply because the game could eat and eat for ages! Hahaha. Not only that, even getting 3 reels of full Wilds have now become a real rarity. Yet one more very disappointing aspect of the 'upgraded' game! Nonetheless, I’ve started playing Great Blue once again, after many years of abstinence. Why? Because my number 6th Magnificent game, Dolphin Reef, has been performing quite poorly for the past many months, but Great Blue on the other hand has been giving a slightly better performance, so I’m reliving my interest in the game. Maybe it’ll soon join my Magnificent Six team, replacing and retiring Dolphin Reef.

was doing some browsing and stumbled upon this news article all those ridiculous wins by one player "PP" yet the casino doesn't have the slot shut down and investigated seems all too suspicious, everyone knows at land based when a slot is paying out too much they shut it down and in many cases the machine never returns, yet they supposedly allowed this "PP" person to continue crushing the casino with huge win after huge win at the same game Great Blue, when most likely the player was using some code to produce these wins, or the slot/machine was malfunctioning or the casino is just making up the story to get more players? Also wonder what bet sizes the player was using throughout this entire Great Blue heist. Anyway what do other people think about this? Miracle wins or fraud or fake news or code combinations used to trigger wins or what went on? GREAT BLUE SLOT HITS YET AGAIN 26 August 2011 Windows Casino continues to make extraordinary claims for internet slot InfoPowa has previously commented on the seemingly continuous stream of big jackpots - many of them allegedly won by Greek punter PP - that Windows Casino claims have been won on its Playtech-powered online slot Great Blue (see previous). This week produced yet another claim, this time that PP had won another Euro 195,995 on August 17...just over a month since the same player reportedly hit a series of big wins on the same slot totalling Euro 196,000! This is what InfoPowa had to say back on August 7th this month, and the latest developments make this situation all the more intriguing and relevant: There is either a seriously fortunate Greek player out there using the nom-de-plume “PP”, or something unusual is going on at the Playtech-powered online casinos Windows and King Solomans, which have been pumping out publicity recently on large Great Blue slot wins. In the latest press release sent out this week, Windows Casino reports that PP “regularly makes the headlines with big wins”, a statement evidenced by even a cursory inspection of recent publicity material. On this occasion PP hit a series of high paying single line wins and free spins which contributed to make up his total winnings of Euro 96,380. The highest single line win he/she recorded amounted to Euro10,640. From the free spins he/she won Euro 15,900, Euro 16,520 and Euro 14,760 amongst others with his last free spins session paying out Euro 58,800. Two weeks ago, PP reportedly won Euro 125 000 playing Great Blue Slots at King Solomons Casino. This time he/she hit a first bonus round which paid out some Euro 4 888. Two more bonus games saw him/her substantially increase his/her balance through free spin wins with amounts of Euro 21 252 and Euro 23 600, bringing his/her balance up to Euro 50 000. He/She then went on – in the same session – to earn the major part of his/her winnings during his last free spins towards the end of his/her game play when 8 wild symbols appeared on the reels, paying out Euro 95 256. A month before that, PP again featured in casino news, this time from King Solomons Casino – again playing the Great Blue slot game. On April 16 he/she won Euro 109 712 in what was the third in a run that bagged another two wins on the same slot machine within a month – the first on 7th April, of Euro 24 646, and a second on 10th April of Euro 29 828. According to the King Solomons Casino winners’ section, these aren’t the only wins for this player. PP of Greece also had other wins on Great Blue on 30 November 2010, 20 December 2010 and 31 January 2011 of Euro 33 992, Euro 38 657 and Euro 32 091 respectively!
