[00:03] One of the biggest questions I get asked is why haven't I hit a handpay? I've been coming to the casino for years. I've spent thousands of dollars and I've never hit a handpay. Well, today I'm going to let you know [00:15] why exactly you aren't hitting handpays. So, let's get at it. So, let's get at it. >> [music] [00:34] people make when they come to the casino is you're not betting enough. I know, it's absolutely scary, right? You don't want to lose your money, but your [music] bet needs to be relative to your bankroll for you to be successful. [00:49] I've heard people say I've lost thousands and thousands of dollars. they're betting $1, they're betting $2, and they're surprised they haven't won a jackpot. So, let's take a look here. Double Gold. [music] Much like any other [01:02] traditional three-reel slot, the average middle-of-the-road hit is going to be 40 credits if you're betting two. That's triple bars on double diamonds. This is what you're going to get relatively often, and a lot of times you'll get it [01:16] Diamond for instance, you'll get the Double Diamond and triple bars, >> right? 180 credits. Now, at a dollar, that's $180. For you to get a handpay, you would have to land the top line hit. In here is [01:32] to land the top line hit. In here is $5,000. [music] percentage. Now, let's go take a look at a $5 denomination and we're going to compare. All right, y'all. So, we're here at the [01:46] Double Gold $5 denomination. So, max bet is $10. That same middle-of-the-road is $10. That same middle-of-the-road hit, you can see here is now $400. [02:01] you can probably land it with a double, which makes it $800. Now, all you have to get is that triple seven with a double, just the triple seven and you've got yourself a $1,000. [02:15] The higher you bet, the more likely you are to get a handpay. Now, I'm not saying you have to bet ridiculous amounts of money. You don't. $5 denomination, that's when you're really looking at it. And, depending on what [02:28] volatility, the less you have to bet. And we'll talk about that here in a second. Okay, y'all. Let's talk about a higher Dragon Link. Now, these are actually some of my favorite higher in volatility [02:43] games because they are much more consistent and a lot better at paying >> [music] >> But on this game, at 10 cents at $5, your chances of hitting a handpay are significantly higher [02:57] than, let's say, a normal three-reel slot. Why? Because of the volatility. Not only could you land that $1,000 major, but in a game like this, you have just the nature of higher in volatility. [03:10] less wins, but when you do get them, they're going to be massive. So, you can bet a little bit less. You can probably bet $2.50, $3, $5, and get closer to old-school slots. That's the trade-off, [03:24] right? More consistency on the old school, better chances, but here you >> And that's what a lot of people are wishing for. They'll come in with $300, and hope for hitting a handpay at 50 [music] cents or a dollar. [03:38] Can it happen? Yes, it absolutely can. People hit the grand at a dollar, or they hit those majors at a dollar. And it does happen, but those are the And it does happen, but those are the very very very rare rare occasions. So, [03:51] I'm telling you, if you want to get consistent handpays, you need to bet And it doesn't need to be a crazy amount. $5, that's a good point. That's kind of my comfortable because it is very easy to get a $1,000 line hit on a [04:06] $5 bet, which for me is better than a handpay because you're not paying any Okay, y'all. So, now you know [music] the big issue. You need to start betting more. Now, you don't have to bet crazy amounts. Like I said, $5 is about that [04:20] handpays. Now, I'm going to start with a normal reasonable budget, and we're going to go to a kind of middle-of-the-road cuz I get it. A lot of casinos don't have lower in volatility slots, and a lot of [04:34] volatility slots. That's why we're playing on a Game King. These Game Kings playing on a Game King. These Game Kings have a lot of the classic IGTs. So, Wolf Run, Kitty Glitter, Cleopatra, Cleopatra II, and in this [music] case, Mystical [04:48] Mermaid. Now, Mystical Mermaid has been around for a very long time, and the bonus can be incredible if you land it. Now, are you going to win a huge major grand like you might on, let's say, Dragon Link or Phoenix Link? No, but you [05:03] can absolutely hit a handpay on this game. So, let's get at it, and let's see hopefully, fingers crossed, get a handpay. [05:20] Let's go ahead and play this $10. All right, so you can see, 20 lines, we're starting at $10. And if we get down to $2.50, we're going to drop our bet down to $5. That's going to keep us in that 1% to 2% [05:35] and by sticking to that, we're going to ensure that the line hits that we get, the bonuses that we get, are going to be enough to really double our bets. Mermaid is that [05:51] you'll get good line hits, but they're going to be a lot less but they're going to be a lot less frequent. But we're doing pretty good. Than maybe on something like [music] Dragon Link or Lightning Link. [06:06] volatility game, but it's not because the line hits, the >> [music] >> tend to be >> tend to be much bigger. [06:44] >> All right. >> [laughter] [music] >> It's not doing so good. All right, scatters. 20 bucks. [07:04] So, you can see, the line hits are good. They're not as frequent as others, but They're not as frequent as others, but Oh, we're in it, y'all. >> [music] >> I'm giving away $3,000 [07:19] [music] subscribers.

[08:38] anything crazy, but they do have the potential if you get a lot of mermaids. potential if you get a lot of mermaids. [music] [08:52] >> [music] >> I do love the music, too. All right, come on. We're going to need a little saves here. [09:06] >> [music] >> Ah, that's okay, though. $155 >> Ah, that's okay, though. $155 brings us back to where we started. [09:38] let's keep going. As you can see, when you bet closer to your bankroll, [music] the bonuses, the line hits, are going to keep you more sustained than if you were betting minimum bet [09:52] betting minimum bet or less than 1%. [music] [10:09] Mystical Mermaid's back to its old games. but [music] then when you do get something, it'll be relatively big. [10:33] So, like I said, y'all, the bonus is pretty frequent. [music] this time. Or a lot of mermaids. [11:01] point, so I can't complain. >> [music] [11:19] >> [music] >> Holy cow. How much is this? Oh, we got us a re-trigger, y'all. [11:40] Holy cow. Mystical Mermaid [music] for the win. [12:09] >> Oh my god. Another 10 free games. [12:37] This could be absolutely crazy. >> [music] [12:51] [music] >> Okay.

[14:02] You've got to be kidding me. 60 free [music] games. [14:22] >> And as you see, y'all, this is why it is so important to bet in is why it is so important to bet in relation to your bankroll. [14:51] >> See if we can quick spin into a good line hit. All right, scatters. >> [music] [15:09] [music] >> Just going to try to move through this. >> [music] >> Oh, come on, Mystical Mermaid. [16:10] This is the most free games I've ever gotten on this game. >> [music] >> I'm trying to show you the best ways to [16:26] be successful at the casino.

Let's see that massive win. [17:29] on that teeny weeny itty bitty $10 [music] bet. What an epic epic bonus [music] round on Mystical Mermaid. [17:41] That's why I chose it. It's not going to always happen, right? slots, and you bet a little bit more, you too can land a hand pay. So, we're going to get this paid out, and we're going to get [music] right back at it. [17:57] y'all to just, hey, cash out, take the win, walk away. We're only a few dollars down from what we started with, but I want to keep playing, because I feel like that may have been a bit unrealistic. [18:15] So, I think we'll stay at $10. machine that you're going to get a hand pay. [18:28] >> [music] >> Like I said, this game is great, not necessarily going to be a banger every time. [19:03] good big line hits. Close to [music] your bet back. Um I [music] mean, I'm not complaining. [19:16] Definitely not complaining. But I think it wound up averaging out to like $50 a spin. >> [music] [19:46] >> So, I think we're going to do this, we're just going to going to keep playing. See what happens. [20:01] If not, we're going to play it down. We're going to see how the game plays We're going to see how the game plays out. [music] [20:22] >> $10 bet. Let's see what we can [music] make happen.

[20:40] >> I try to show y'all games that, you know, aren't shown a lot on other know, aren't shown a lot on other channels. [20:54] wins as some of the other games, but are consistent. I think consistency is key for the low budget player. >> Oh. So, we are not doing good here. [21:26] Big win. >> [music] 20 times uh multiplier, not bad. [music] [21:38] Not the biggest, definitely not the worst. [22:07] I said we'd stop at 500. >> [music] you this game, so let's we're ahead. Let's just keep going. [22:22] Uh we lose this money, I'm comfortable with that. with that. Again, we are ahead. [music] [22:51] Now, here is Here is how Mystical Mermaid can play. [23:10] scatters. Clam shells, not bad.
