The video showcases gameplay, bonus features, and the player's strategy of setting walk-away limits to minimize losses and maximize gains.
Chapters
The player starts with a $100 bankroll at a casino, aiming to turn it into a hand pay (a jackpot payout).
The player plays Wolf Run, noting that bonuses have been underwhelming in the past. They prefer the original version over newer ones.
The player explains that getting more than one bonus symbol can make bonuses less lucrative, so they prefer single bonus triggers.
After a bonus performs poorly, the player cashes out even and moves to another game, demonstrating their rule to walk away when even.
The player recommends playing the version with the most free games and the biggest minor jackpot, as line hits are better and the mini is less lucrative.
The player sets a rule to play down to $100 and leave if they don't hit a bonus, emphasizing the importance of setting walk-away limits to guarantee how much you can lose.
A line hit pays 10 times the bet, which the player loves about Wolf Run, as it keeps the bankroll going.
The player warns that the mini bonus only gives one stack of wilds, making it less lucrative than it appears, so they don't chase it.
Wolf Run is classified as a favorite bankroll-building game, especially when the minor jackpot is above 20 credits, sometimes reaching the 40s.
The player switches to Triple Diamond, an old-school game, and asks viewers which is lower volatility: triple diamond or double diamond.
The player clarifies that low volatility games don't hit often, but when they do, it's your bet or more back, providing consistency at lower bets.
The player sets a stop at $100 and a floor at $50, showing how they manage the session to avoid big losses.
The player only features games they consider good, avoiding bad slot machines even if they win, to not perpetuate poor choices.
The player tries Mummy, noting line hits are weak but bonuses come frequently, making it a decent game.
The player is at The Orleans casino in Las Vegas, where they find the game performs well.
The player tries Jubilee, mentioning they've never hit a big win on it, and prefers Majestic Lions instead.
The player notes that the average big bonus on these games is about 100 credits, so they set a floor of 50 to avoid playing down to a low multiplier.
The player plays a Buffalo slot, noting the hyperlink feature and three coins for Buffalo, and wins $150 early on.
The player explains that added symbols in games like Buffalo can take away from line hits, a trade-off for bonus features.
The player ends with a $50 loss on the last game but emphasizes that minimizing losses and maximizing gains leads to long-term winning. They stick to walk-away limits and take wins when up 30-50%.
The video concludes with the player emphasizing the importance of bankroll management and walk-away limits, noting that even a losing session can be a win if you stick to your rules. The player encourages viewers to subscribe for more slot tips and tricks.

[00:01] local neighborhood firefighter and we are just getting to the casino and hopefully, just hopefully, we can turn this small bankroll into a hand pay. So, this small bankroll into a hand pay. So, let's get at it.
[00:38] let's turn up the volume. It's getting pretty loud in here.
[00:51] favorite. I played it a few times, never really had any luck. I've gotten to the bonus, but every bonus has been pretty but every bonus has been pretty underwhelming.
[01:18] Let me know down Oh, there's our little guy. game? Do you like the original? I'm a big fan of the original.
[01:37] Oh, come on. We got the haywire. Okay. All right. We just got one, but that's okay.
[01:57] >> All right. Well, let's see if Mo spins treats us well. >> More shiny gems. >> Yes.
[02:13] is I know a lot of people want the triple pop. There we go. But I find that when you get more than But I find that when you get more than one, the bonuses tend to be less
[02:27] lucrative. Hey, we got two on that one. Nothing Hey, we got two on that one. Nothing big, but I'll take it.
[02:41] another two. All right, this is >> this is looking good. I mean, again, >> this is looking good. I mean, again, nothing too big, but
[03:01] Need two more. Two spins for two more. Can we do it? >> Last spin. Oh, and we didn't even get more spins.
[03:14] >> Oh, this one's my favorite. >> This was not my favorite, Mr. Mummy. All right. Well, let's let's do this. Let's just play it down to 100.
[03:31] found that all the bonuses tend to be pretty crummy, so I'm not going to invest too much more money. We got a bonus and it performed money. We got a bonus and it performed exactly how I thought it would.
[03:43] All right. Well, let's cash out even and find us another game. Okay, so we got 18 on the minor, 15 on the mini.
[04:06] the free games set up the way that this is, I found that the line hits Oh, can we get it? A the line hits on this game are much better. But it is an advantage play. You want to play the one that has the most
[04:20] free games. And I always recommend the biggest minor because the mini can be
[04:34] know, okay. I usually wait till it's in the 20s, but figured we'd give it a the 20s, but figured we'd give it a shot.
[04:53] see if you can get this in here. Look better.
[05:19] kickbacks. That's why I like this game so much.
[05:37] that is a good sign. Oh, Wolfiey's giving us a howl.
[06:05] So, we're at 115. So, you know my rule. Um, let's just play it down to 100. See if we can get that bonus. If not, we're leaving even. that bonus. If not, we're leaving even. Remember,
[06:25] every time you come to the casino, but you can guarantee how much you will you can guarantee how much you will lose. So, set those walk away limits.
[06:38] you tend to get two of those bonuses coming out a lot, you'll get the bonus relatively quickly. Now, that's not always the case, but that's just been my always the case, but that's just been my experience.
[07:00] Oh, there we go. See, this is why I love this game. 10 times our bet right there. Just good line hits.
[07:21] I know that that might look really appealing, y'all, but you only get one appealing, y'all, but you only get one stack of wilds uh in the mini bonus. So, it's not as lucrative as you would think.
[07:34] So, I really never chase that one. I'm going for the other ones because then going for the other ones because then you'll start getting two, three stacks.
[08:23] All right, we need another howl. We need to get in that bonus.
[08:53] I really do classify this as one of my favorite bankroll building games. play it when those numbers are above 20. I've seen them get high. I've seen them
[09:05] get up into the 40s. Uh but when you can land it after that, it can be great. And as you see, the line heats keep you going.
[09:21] Let me know in the comments which wolf run is your favorite version. Oh, come on. Oh,
[09:46] Yeah, we're going to call it there. Not bad. Got a lot of good gameplay out of it. And we're leaving even, which is a win in my book. All right, let's go find win in my book. All right, let's go find another one.
[10:08] >> All right, let's see if old school treats us a little bit better.
[10:34] I'll shoot a poll. >> Oh, on this. Uh, which one do you think is lower in volatility, triple diamond or double in volatility, triple diamond or double diamond?
[10:54] It is one of my absolute favorite old schools. play triple diamond over double diamond. Uh,
[11:08] you know what? I'll take it. I'll take 10. Oh, misconception when it comes to low
[11:22] volatility games. As you can see, we're not getting a ton of hits, but when you do get a hit, it's your bet or more back. And so, it tends to bring you back up. So, a little bit more consistency,
[11:43] at such a lower bet as some of the other games, right?
[11:59] talking you up. Got to give me something.
[12:19] the triple diamond on the bar or on the pay line, you get paid for that.
[12:47] Hey, another 10. All right, I'll take it.
[13:12] There we go. And look at that. We're up to 84 now. That's what I mean. Brings to 84 now. That's what I mean. Brings you back up.
[13:30] We've had some play on this. If we get above our 100, depending above our 100, depending um we'll just stop at 100. um we'll just stop at 100. Nice. If we get down to 50, we'll stop.
[13:47] for the day. We're even on our first two. Nice.
[14:03] Oh, come on. A triple diamond. No teasing. Oh, so mean.
[14:51] All right. Sometimes you got to give the handle a shot. Change up that rhythm.
[15:05] There we go. Look at that. Back up to 84. these kind of games. That's why I try to mix it.
[15:23] some of the better games to play. I do throw in some other stuff like Momo Mummy. Um, I pretty much play everything that comes out, but if I think it's a bad game, I generally won't put it on the channel.
[15:37] Even if I get a good win on it, just because I don't want to perpetuate because I don't want to perpetuate people playing bad slot machines.
[16:25] All right. No joy, but a lot of good gameplay.
[16:45] actually really like it. The line hits are kind of garbage, but I found that the bonus comes in a lot.
[17:02] the Oh, okay. 10:25. Okay. Uh, really good at this at 10:25. Okay. Uh, really good at this at the the Orleans here in Las Vegas.
[17:33] initiated in this game and how you never know which one you're going to get.
[18:11] after this. See if any of those are open.
[18:23] Jubilee. Let me know in the comments if you've hit it, how much you won. I try every time I come to Vegas and uh no luck. I like Majestic Lions a lot better.
[19:00] A still not bad.
[19:47] progressions, y'all. They change on each uh denomination multiplier. uh denomination multiplier. Not that they mean anything, but
[20:01] I'll live in my own little lie. Play the one that's the biggest. Finance-wise, it's keeping us going though.
[20:24] All right, come on. We're getting close to our halfway point.
[20:54] Would have thought that would have been more. Oh, she's exploding. Ah,
[21:07] Ah, that's okay.
[22:16] we're going to just play this down to 50.
[22:30] You know, the average big big bonus you can expect on these games is about 100 can expect on these games is about 100 credits. So,
[22:42] 50 cuz chances are if I do get a bonus, it's going to be 10 times 20 times multiplier. And I don't want to play my money all the way down to get a 10 time 20 times multiplier.
[24:03] Then how about Yeah. All right. calling it. No luck.
[24:15] It just looks fun. So, we're going to give it a shot. Let's see. God, these things are so big. They just keep making these bigger and They just keep making these bigger and bigger.
[24:51] So, we got to get those values with the hyperlink left to right. Three coins as always for Buffalo. Ah. So there you go. $150.
[25:15] >> Oh, what's this going to be? 12 bucks. Not bad. obviously because we have all these bonus things.
[26:16] all about. Oh. Oh. Ooh. Hyper flip. Wonder what that's all Ooh. Hyper flip. Wonder what that's all about.
[26:47] It's big money time. Huh?
[27:17] >> Winner. I mean, still not bad.
[27:37] I like it. I like this. It's kind of fun. >> I've definitely played other Buffalo versions that were much worse than this.
[28:17] stop at 100, but Oh, but we're doing okay on this. And I kind of want to see how it plays.
[28:31] of want to see how it plays. So, let's set our bass at 50. than 50. There we go.
[29:13] kind of games is all these added symbols take away from your line hits, right?
[31:36] What's that? Oh, okay. If I get above my original $100, I usually stop at 100.
[32:11] All right, got two spins.
[32:29] All right. $50 loss. That's how it is sometimes. sessions, right? You're going to win some, you're going to lose some. But by
[32:42] minimizing your losses, maximizing your gains, you're going to be a winner over the long run. And that's what I do. And that's how I can play so much. Hey, I set those walkway limits. I stick to them. When I'm up just a little bit, I
[32:56] play it down to my original 100. And when I'm up significantly, at least in when I'm up significantly, at least in my eyes, 30, 50%, I take the win and I walk away. All right, y'all. Well, I hope you liked it. If you did, hit that
