Is it possible for a game to short change?

[Marmite7]

I don't want to appear greedy, but I'm now wondering if a bonus round on Dead or Alive (1) paid the correct amount. 

I triggered the bonus round with a stake of £3.60.

Four sticky wilds landed on the top line during the initial 12 free spins, and on the last spin a 5th dropped in, giving me a wild line.  The 5 extra spins were awarded and on the 2nd spin another sticky wild dropped in on the middle giving me two wild lines. 

I believed that a wild line was 1500 times the bet, but times two as it was the bonus round.  

I ended up with a final tally of £11,813. 

Obviously I was very happy but does it sound right?

Do you have winning screenshot?

First wild line on spin 12 paid 1080 quid

First spins of the extra 5 spins - Wild line paid 1080 quid

Last 4 spins when double wild line landed paid  8640 quid ( 2160 quid per spin)

1080 quid - Spin 12 Wild Line
1080 quid - 1st Spin Wild line (from Extra 5 spins)
8640 quid - Double wild line winnings (Spin 2 - 5 which is 4 spins)

10 800 quid - This is what your wild lines paid

The other symbol winning combination made up the rest of your winning balance

That would mean 11 813 quid total - 10 800  quid (Wild Line Winnings) = 1013 quid (other symbol 3 OAK, 4OAK and 5 OAK winning combinations)

So yeah that sounds about right, as 4 wilds pay about 30 x, and wild line pays x300 your total stake.

I hope the above explanation makes sense

Thanks for your response mate.  But how does x300 for a wild line marry-up with the pay table shown at 1,500?  (And as it’s DOA 1, the bonus round is x2 isn't it?)

 

Or am I missing something.

5 Wilds on a winning line pay 1500x THE LINE BET, not the total bet.

@1 pence coin value, it pays GBP 15. @40 pence coin value, it pays GBP 600 (GBP 1200 during each free spin).

So, in the first spin of the 5 extra spins, that 1 Wildline paid GBP 1200.

In the next 4 extra spins, the 2 Wildlines paid GBP 2400 x 4 = GBP 9600.

So the total win from the Wildlines = GBP 10,800.  The other wins add up to give you the final total win of GBP 11,813.

Exactly, so a wildline is 166,67X (9 lines) in base game, and 333,33x in the free spins. I don't think you got scammed @Marmite7 - congrats on your DoA win!

In Basic terms

1500 for wild line (x2 during free spins) which means wild line pays - 3000 your line bet, so if you placed a bet of $0.09 win would be $30 per spin.

Congrats with this winning! And really useful rule - always make a screenshot
