Why You Should NEVER Chase Must-Hit-By Jackpots
60sReveals a common slot machine misconception with a strong warning, sparking debate and shares.
▶ Play Clip"Title is vague and doesn't match the content; it's a typical live casino stream with no dramatic 'no going back' moment."
In this live casino stream, the creator demonstrates a bankroll management strategy involving 100 spins at a set denomination, reassessing after each session to either increase or decrease bet size. He also discusses the perceived advantage of 'must hit by' jackpot meters, his preference for certain slot game versions, and announces a charity initiative tied to channel subscriptions and app downloads.
The creator introduces a variation of the 'set spin method': starting with $500 and doing 100 $5 spins, then reassessing based on profit or loss to adjust bet size for subsequent rounds.
He advises against chasing the highest 'must hit by' jackpot meter, explaining that unlike games like Thunder Cash, the expected return isn't guaranteed because the bonus outcome is unknown, making it not an advantage play.
He discusses how 100 lines spread out line hits, but fewer lines also have diminishing returns because five-of-a-kind hits are rare. He finds a middle ground, like 50 lines, often yields better bonus rounds.
He expresses love for the two-times multiplier bonus, similar to Peace and Long Life or Genghis Khan, which is why he prefers this version of the game.
After a session, he reassesses: if down, he moves to a different game and does 100 spins at a lower bet, creating an 'ebb and flow' that has worked well for him.
He announces a plan to donate $0.25 to charity for every subscriber and $1 for every download of the Jackpot Party Slots app, aiming to raise $30,000 for children in need, with 100% of future channel profits going to charity.
He shares that he is a firefighter, recently dealt with a flooded attic from mice chewing AC lines, and prefers early morning casino visits due to PTSD and anxiety from army service.
He was asked to stop filming at a Caesars property, a common occurrence, and moved to another casino to continue the stream.
He shows a new shirt that says 'Only you can take the win and walk away,' reinforcing his core message of leaving with winnings, and mentions it's available in his shop.
He recaps the session, reiterates the charity mission, and hints at bigger bets in the future while maintaining his 'take the win' philosophy.
The video is a live casino session that combines entertainment with practical bankroll management advice, emphasizing the importance of reassessing bets and not chasing jackpot meters. It also serves as a platform for the creator's charitable goals, aiming to inspire other content creators to give back.

37:13[00:05] coming to the channel and we're going to talk about them today. But first, we're going to start off and we'll kind of talk about stuff as we're we'll kind of talk about stuff as we're playing. So, we are here on
[00:22] Queen Shoe Phoenix Link. See if I can uh
[00:37] is we're going to do something that I've been doing quite a bit lately. It's a variance on the set spin method. I call it Oops. There we go.
[00:51] Make sure this is right. Uh looking to get a hand pay. So, we got $500 in. We're going to do 100 $5 spins.
[01:05] And if we make profit, we're going to reassess. We might bump up. We might If we don't, what we'll do is we'll reassess where we at. Okay, maybe if we have $300 left, well, then we're going to do another 100 spins at $3. This is a
[01:21] really well for me and it's allowed me to basically keep on bumping up and fighting fire so that I can land some hand pays. with today. Now, I started with uh Phoenix Link because they actually have
[01:35] a bunch of options for a $5 bet. So, if you didn't know, So, if I go to 100 lines, minimum bet at 5 cents [music] is $5. Uh it's a second bet multiplier at 50 lines and then at
[01:51] 10 cent, we'll have minimum bet which will give us a $5 bet as well. I'm going to try to keep track of all of these all of the chance.
[02:07] us a Ripper. Uh let's see try not to be too obnoxious Uh let's see try not to be too obnoxious with the audio on this game.
[02:23] one of the things a lot of content creators talk about is this look at that triple minor that would have been
[02:35] have been three $250 minors. Uh but what I was saying is that that meter
[02:49] but what I was saying is that that meter is actually It's perceived advantage. And a lot of people will tell you to sit down look for the highest one, chase it.
[03:04] Absolutely do not do that. yes, this is a must hit by. But there's no guarantee on what you
[03:19] will win during the bonus. One Phoenix can set it off. And you only have to get one more in the bonus round. So your expected return isn't going to be enough. Unlike a game like Thunder Cash or any of the must hit
[03:33] by um Ainsworth games, you know what you're going to get at the end. That's what makes it an advantage play. You can make an educated guess. Uh or you can do the math to see whether or not that's actually going to pay off.
[03:47] So really don't pay attention to that. Don't chase it.
[04:15] y'all. I'm basically the phone is like 20 inches from my the phone is like 20 inches from my face.
[04:47] kind of it does pay more. So, there's a point of diminishing return. 100 lines, your line hits are going to be spread out over those 100 lines. Uh but for me, what I find that less lines is also kind of a diminishing
[05:03] return as well because you have to get five of a kind for it really to be anything. And in my experience, it doesn't happen enough. Now, the caveat is to a game like this because if you're paying at if you're
[05:18] playing at a dollar, let's say at $5, uh which is minimum bet, you can land a which is minimum bet, you can land a triple minor.
[05:38] All right, not much going on there. Let's go back.
[06:04] leaving the casino with your winnings man. It's we all make that mistake. That's why I try to [music] preach try to [music] preach taking the win and walking away.
[06:23] I'm in Black Hawk, Colorado.
[06:46] get into. Mostly because if you do get into the multipliers. Now on a two times multiplier game, I actually like playing 50 to 25 lines because I find that you tend to get
[07:00] because I find that you tend to get bigger bonus rounds that way.
[07:31] well today. But this is an extremely volatile game and this is a volatile version of a volatile game.
[07:55] Coushatta anytime soon. But, I'm sure I'll be there But, I'm sure I'll be there sometime within the next 2 months.
[08:23] We're going to need a little bit of help here. We're down about halfway.
[08:53] up here. I've got Loki with me. It's beautiful. I can go hiking.
[09:10] And that's it. But, that's okay. Let's see what we got. Bigfoot Casino, I like I like that place.
[09:30] Oh, hot tubs. I don't think anyone wants to see me with my shirt off. $120, not the best bonus, but hey, brings us back up a little bit.
[09:45] wonder how I do this, I keep a little clicker with me. Helps me stay on track. clicker with me. Helps me stay on track. So, let's keep going. See what happens.
[10:04] Okay, so I absolutely love [music] this bonus. It is a two-time multiplier bonus, a lot like Peace and Long Life or Genghis Khan. That's why I love playing this version of the game. So, fingers crossed, guys. It could be amazing.
[10:18] Don't forget to please hit that like button. [music] Really helps me out. All right. Starting off with $75. Six games. Let's see if we can get a retrigger.
[10:36] None of this. Oh, none of this.
[10:49] All right, last spin. We're going to need to save it. Hey, but look at that. We're back up. Not going to complain. Remember, every
[11:02] bonus is a good bonus, y'all. Four trigger really did save us. tend to come in spurts, at least in my experience.
[11:25] recommend this game for the average player. Unless you're perfectly comfortable losing all of your money. This game has huge upside potential, but you have to be comfortable losing your money because
[11:38] as you saw earlier, line hits are pretty far and few between.
[12:19] huge selection of games here at the Horseshoe. So, I'm kind of limited on what I can choose. Uh Could use one of those. Those are $100 minis at 10 cents.
[12:50] Short may well tell Jay Smith I said thank you for sending you over.
[13:22] Killing me, smalls. All right, not much going on at 10 cents. Let's go back. Let's try 100 lines.
[13:56] You know what? 50 lines has been treating us the best, so
[14:27] me, though. >> [music]
[14:39] and then we're going to reassess and see what we're going to do.
[15:06] >> Yeah, man. Oh. All right, this going to be our last spin here.
[15:20] Ah. Well, maybe one more.
[15:33] it's not always going to work out, right? But I do 100 spins because one, it stops me. It keeps me from chasing. We still have $267. what we can do here is what I'll do is I'll move to a different game and then
[15:47] I'll move to a different game and then I'll do 100 spins at $2.50. times what will happen is the next game it bumps [music] me back up and it's kind of just this ebb and flow, ebb and flow. It's worked really well for me,
[16:01] great, it isn't great, but we're playing with what we got here. Now, let's talk about some of these big [music] changes. It's funny that you guys are talking about DQ. Actually, how about this? Let's cash out
[16:15] really quick. Let's move someplace a bit quieter. The games over here are cranked quieter. The games over here are cranked all the way up.
[16:30] All right, let's make a quick move. What are we going to do? We're going to move to our good old fan Panda Magic.
[16:56] All right, so it's funny you guys were talking about DQ. for everyone that subscribes to the channel, I will be donating $0.25 to charity. My goal is to donate $30,000
[17:13] to children in need. Now, in partnership with Jackpot Party Slots app, I'm also going to donate a dollar for everyone that donate or downloads the Jackpot Party Slots app. The link is in
[17:28] the description to this video and in my future videos. It's a free app that lets you play these exact same Lightning Link games at your own home for free. Doesn't cost you anything. But, it's something that I wanted to be
[17:44] able to do to give back since I've gotten so much from this channel and I'm a big proponent of giving back to the world. Uh, I was homeless as a kid. I didn't have anything, you know.
[17:56] Full-time job as soon as I turned 16. So, my goal is to use that revenue to start another channel and 100% of the profits that come from that channel will go to doing bigger and bigger and
[18:11] bigger things uh for them. So, it'll just keep hopefully keep growing and growing and growing and growing on itself. That's So, uh
[18:23] subscribe button. 25 [music] cents to charity for everyone that subscribes. Plus, if you haven't downloaded the Jackpot Party Slots app, do that, too. You don't have to play it, but if you do it, I'll donate a dollar.
[18:37] You know, if everyone in my everyone of my subscribers does it, I'll donate Uh I just want to be able to do [music] something and be remembered and change There's so many content creators that make millions and millions and millions
[18:52] make millions and millions and millions of dollars off of people watching them just they just keep it. And uh I hopefully want to try something and change that and start a trend of us giving back.
[19:05] Uh but, we [music] are on one of my favorite games now. The panda. He's always treating me well.
[19:23] They do have to risk their own money, but uh know, they make millions and millions of dollars. And I'm a
[19:39] everything we can to help others in need. Great. Awesome to have you here. So, if y'all didn't know, basically we
[19:54] started this off with $500 we did 100 spins through Queen Shoo. You know, got two bonuses, nothing incredible. We actually got back pretty close to where we had started, uh but didn't work out for us. [music]
[20:07] So, we have $267 remaining. What we're going to do with that is we're now going to do another 100 spins at $260. So, this is a way that you can manage your bankroll and also hopefully keep building it up. Now, one of the other
[20:21] things is, you know, it's reassessing. So, we're going to start at my favorite bet multiplier. 5 cent denomination, 250 a spin. Let's see if we can Here we go. So, it is the second bet multiplier.
[20:56] to come after this, but that's kind of the the big one for this. I'm trying to start something. I hopefully can get some other big content creators. Perry, thank you so much for that $10 super chat.
[21:11] super chat. Really means a lot to me.
[21:48] when there's a bunch of people. Um, hey, there you go. It's my uh PTSD and anxiety from the old army
[22:00] uh makes being in a very crowded casino uh a bit stressful. So, I try not to be here when there's a bunch of people. And also, it's a courteous thing. Like, I realize like how pompous it is to
[22:16] be here talking to my phone while other people are playing around me. us. Let's try 10 cent minimum bet.
[22:40] that'll be uh another announcement [music] coming uh another announcement [music] coming after this.
[22:55] and 6:00 a.m. kind of person. There's no one in the casino. I get to play whatever I want. I don't really have to worry about all the noise and have to worry about all the noise and the yelling.
[23:14] for those of you don't know, I'm a firefighter and I got off of shift and uh got home, started packing for this trip, and come to find out I have mice in my attic and they chewed through my air
[23:27] conditioning um condensation lines and flooded my attic. >> Hey bud, so we actually don't allow >> Okay. Cool.
[23:39] Cool. >> Thank you. >> Well, this happens to me all the time.
[23:58] So, that got cut short. They said that non-recording here at Caesars. multiple times and filmed multiple times.
[24:11] But, that's okay. We're just going to go somewhere else. >> You want to play this one? >> Let's see.
[24:30] I'm a sucker for three reels. I mean, I love three reels. They're great. They're love three reels. They're great. They're fun. the Evil Knievel voice. It's very loud. The game check works
[24:43] It's very loud. The game check works perfectly. Lakeland, Florida, how's it going out there and Louisiana?
[24:58] $300 in. Same thing as we did before, right? 100 spins. This is a three credit machine. I don't know if you can see it. So, max bet $3.
[25:20] Now, the top prize is $10,000. So, a little bit more volatile.
[25:41] come to any of our casinos? I have not been to any casinos in [music] Kansas. been to any casinos in [music] Kansas. Abilene, Texas.
[26:05] we were told to stop filming was that uh mice got into my attic and uh flooded it by chewing through the AC lines. So, I had to rush to Home Depot,
[26:18] Depot, get some PVC pipe, fix my AC lines, fix all the flooding on my carpet, and all of the drywall upstairs, and set up just a maze of mouse traps up in my attic.
[26:35] selection of like old school slots here and like um nine lines.
[26:48] do? Can't keep a cat up there. Can't keep a cat up there. It's Texas. It's like 150° up there.
[27:01] All right, Evil's not treating us very good.
[27:27] Oh, didn't even realize you get paid for nothings.
[27:44] were at the Horseshoe, but they told us to leave. in Texas, to be honest with you. They're not particularly good.
[28:29] I think we've had like two line hits. Do it, you son of a gun.
[28:53] We're going to give him two more spins and we are going to move. Wow, that was really bad. Let's try this.
[29:37] Maybe the Tabasco would treat us better. We'll see. Of course, I chose like one extremely volatile game to the next.
[30:22] >> Evil, don't even talk to me right now. Not after what you just did. Lucinda. Here's some walking cash. Thank you, Mark and man. Appreciate
[30:36] that. Uh, you know, I messaged Lucinda the other day. She didn't get back to the other day. She didn't get back to me.

[31:33] So, I drove straight through to here and then it was you can't [music] check in till 4:00. I was like, "Oh, come on."
