Back in January I actually came out on top leaving while up a little over 6k when I walked away with cash in hand. It helped by keeping me in the game, however I ended up losing it all. Not once did i get a bonus round, however i did get the pot to close 2x. I am currently at the cosmopolitan in Las Vegas and have already sunk almost 2k into one machine of 88 fortunes. And almost every time you hit the bonus round you get a nice payback. Have you noticed that it normally very hard to get the free spin bonus with 3 green dongs (symbols) in column 1,2,3. 88 fortunes is rated as a 4-5 on the volatility scale. Volatility means that the machine is more likely to suck money in more than you get paid out. However there is the story to be known about volatility. Could it be hit 2x in a row? Absolutely is can be won 2x in a row. Bottom line and solution to this thread is simpleĪll slot machines are delivered and operate with a hardware chip set for payback percentage - plain and simple end of storyĨ8 fortunes has progressives which means that any given time regardless of the bet, anyone can win the Grand highest amount shown.
