Won the Grand on this machine $12,015.00 max bet of $3.20. I put in $100 and had only played $19 when I hit. It was my first big jackpot win. Also won $500 on the wicked wheel spin a few weeks later. Super fun game.
I play the Wicked Wheel a lot! Sometimes on the Wicked Wheel spin bonus the little devil will get upset and tug on the wheel to upgrade your win! It doesn't happen often but when it does it ALWAYS upgrades your win. I have won a lot of money on that game.
Having played this game more then a few times and playing long times without hitting the bonuses I would have left after you hit the wheel spin. That line hit was absolutely awesome by the way.
I was first "introduced" to this machine back in November 2020, when I went to Atlantic City for my birthday & I've been playing it ever since, even at the Casino in Pennsylvania! 🎰 😊 Only problem is- the game is SO doggone entertaining & "addicting" to play, omg, I'm guilty of WINNING good $$$ on this machine, but then playing it ALL back- trying to see "what else" I can win!!! 🤷♀️🤦♀️ Over the years, I have actually run this machine up to over $1,000, playing the $3.20 max bet! I sure need to learn how to be more "disciplined" when playing this machine! (Has anyone else reading this also stayed on this machine for too long???)
Nice to answer the one question I had about this game right up front (about the bonus being predetermined). I also really enjoy the music and think it's a fun game.
I received my only hand pay from this game on a cruise ship. I was playing 3 times the regular bet and on my 3rd spin everything just stopped and it said I had a jackpot. I didn't see it hit anything, no bells and whistles were going off, so I was confused. When it said I had won $970 I was thrilled, but then it said the payout was over $1900. That's when I discovered it was a 2 cent machine, not a 1 cent like I thought! Exciting times!
No one's going to see this two months after the video was posted. But I just wanted it known this is my favorite game!! I play the penny version for $3.60 maximum. I win most of the time. Best penny machine at my casino in Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
cant wait to see your review. it is my wife and my daughter's favorite machine. first time ever in a casino and my daughter hit $1000. on our latest trip to vegas, my wife hit $860 on it. most i have ever hit was a couple hundred. but they play it more than i do since i have been trying to stick to the "cowboy slots" teachings after finding your site. it was still a fun game though.
the best part was they were playing at the min. $0.40 a spin. it is a pretty fun game, but i havent had the luck they have had on it. or the luck you had on it. talk about lucky. all of the bonus features in less then 10 minutes, and tripled your money. very nice. another great video.
@@dannymarkgraf34 wow they won big playing 40¢? I’m lucky if I put in a $20 and cash out with $30-40! 😅 Unfortunately, I get bored very easily playing the traditional three reel slots Cowboy recommends. So I stick with Dragon Link and Lock it Link games. Nothing life changing but we’re up overall. 👍🏼
@@tacocat8608 same here. in vegas i played it a few times. put in $100 and hit for a couple of hundred. but it was a 1 time deal for sure. lol. i have given them a lot more then they gave me. my wife and daughter got really lucky. we're going to lake charles in a couple of weeks, so after i gave them the good review of their favorite machine, i am sure they will play it all weekend.
I started playing one of these games last week. Started at 12:15 with $100 at $1.20. Played until 5 and finished with $600. I know it's not common, but was fun.
Great review! Your session was an anomaly to what would be expected for sure, but at least you got all the bonus features to show us. I wouldn't expect to triple my money on that machine, but what a pleasant surprise on a fun looking machine! I am going to have to try that one out soon. 👍
This machine is in my top 3 favorites (Vegas local). It's tripled my $$ like you, but it's also taken $100 a couple times with no apologies or features. Most times I win and it's on multiple fiery line hits, not necessarily the bonuses. Thanks for the review.
Nice run .yup we play this game a lot . I hit a line hit handy on one over at the Coushatta casino a few months back for 2400. 00 . so yeah Ill keep playing it .
I hit my 1st ever handpay in November on the one at Harrah's in Biloxi. I only tried it because it's wildly popular on the cruise ships and never has an empty seat. Very interested to hear your opinion
Thanks for this review… Dancing drums is about the only penny machine I like to play but if I see this one in my casino I ‘d like to play it… if for nothing else but the fun factor.., I can see me and my friends having a few drinks and singing HOT STUFF! 😂😂😂
Hi Brantley I was very happy you reviewed my ultra favorite machine. It was also great to see u hit all the features. Just love the music too. I blast it when I play it! Ha. But u burst my bubble when u told me the bonus was predetermined on this bonus pick. Oh that hurt.😒. But I'd rather be told the truth so I will know the next time I play. It won't stop me from playing it, but sort of takes some excitement out of my bonus play. Thank u very much for the review and honesty on this machine. A little laugh note: last I went with family and they named me "Hot Stuff". Bec I was winning on this machine. Walked away twice with over $1000. It was gd to me. now I know it wasn't bec I had the magic touch. But was bec it was my birthday. Ha🥳
I am just now going through your playlist so.... My personal experience with this; it is either hot or not but it is a fun game and one of my go-to games when I play.
Since every slot is a gamble, I try to play games that are fun. I love pinball, just like you, and had some amazing luck on a $5 machine at MGM Grand last trip. This is another one of the games I have a hard time passing up. The music is GREAT, and the little diaper devil is hilarious. The “hot and cold” new version is fun as well, but you can’t beat the classic. Thanks for your review!
One interesting thing about this game is that volatility changes with a higher bet. It's baked into the rules. It's a neat feature. "Bet Meter: Betting up increases the chances of winning the progressives in either the Progressive Pick or Wicked Wheel bonuses. The bet meter in the base game shows the current bet level."
I realized this when I used $100 down to $30 on minimum bet. Hit a decent $120 off the mystery feature and hopped off the machine happy even though I did not get any progressive features. Another person jumped on immediately and within 3 max bet spins got the progressive feature. They continued max betting and got feature after feature (about 8 times) within 10 minutes. I followed suit next to the person and max betted my last $30. Instantly got a progressive feature and won $115. Definitely will be betting more next time I go to the casino.
If it wasn't mentioned, it was in the rules section- This game does have a 'better' chance of winning Progressives with higher bet amounts, so bankroll accordingly, max bet is best 'odds' or chance to get the progressives...thx.
What does the 30 seconds mean being at another lady was trying to figure it out sometimes it says 30 seconds on the pot am I supposed to continuously hit the wheel really quick Keon really quick or what can you help with that?
Where did you get the information that the pick feature is a predetermined outcome? Do you know that the picking and removing of the mini, minor, and major bonuses are for show? I read the game rules and this was not disclosed. I am very interested, not upset.
The math prevents it from being "fair". With no removal, the odds of each award should be equal (lowest award should come up as often as biggest award). With removal added, the smallest award should be the least frequent (worst chances of knocking it out are 1/7 and they improve with every pick). A fair bonus would require lots more low value symbols in the bonus pool or require more matches to get the biggest awards to make big awards less common and small awards more common.
@@angelasmith257 The smaller bonuses should occur less frequently than the ones that cannot be knocked out. The smallest one should be knocked out after the first pick in 1 of every 7 games (14%). The math to show the rest is complicated, but three smallest would all occur less often than the ones that cannot be removed. You can win any award on any bet, but the odds of bigger awards increase with bet size. The result is chosen for you though when you get the bonus.
I love 💕 Little diaper dude!!! Ive played 3 versions, the 1 you played, theres another with a little diaper dude in a blue didy😂, theres a 3 multiple reel with progressives I just hit $1,330 progressive AND theres a version thats like Hot Shots..I ❤this game, glad you played and had fun 🤩+ what’s hysterical that most people don’t see cause they’re playing are the little things he does!
All slot machines both new and old, have a small battery on the board thats used to keep the settings as well as where the game play is currently at in the event of a power outage. These batteries need replaced every so often just like a battery in your car. It's a normal part of slot machine maintenance. That message is just letting them know it's almost time to change the battery.
For class III, if it does not show the other options, it is most likely predetermined. You should also consider the math. In this game, the odds of getting the smallest three bonuses should be lower than those for the top three. You have a pretty good chance of knocking out the smallest one (1/7 on first pick, 3/20 on second, and so on) and a lesser chance of the next and then the one above. If it came down to player picks, the bigger awards should be most common. Simulating 100,000 bonuses with equal chances (not predtermined), I get an average boost count of 1.49 pitchforks per game and progressive frequencies as follows: grand: 23695 ultra: 23473 mega: 23243 major: 17188 minor: 9358 mini: 3043 The RTP would be highly in the player's favor if the game returned the grand 23% of the time.
Couple things. While that only had seven pages of game rules compared to some others that have even more, each page was an essay. LOL. I would like to have seen you keep playing to see how quick it sucked that 300 down. If I was a betting man, I would say fairly quick. LOL. But you know when to hold them and when to fold them
Question: If the pick feature is predetermined then why would the bother to have it in the game? It is a useless waste of time. Just present the win on the screen.
I'm gonna go ahead and take an early guess that this game is extremely volatile. I've never played it but from watching people on youtube it seems like no one ever wins anything
If you max bet, the volatility goes down. I have played this a lot. I have lost my fair share, but for sure have won more than I have lost. In the end, this is a fun, albeit volatile game.
I believe your review would have been much different if you would have had 30 spins with no symbol matching and walked away losing your $100 like every other player does.
U seemed to just get super lucky or these same machines are turned away down at my. Casino cause I probably play these every other day and max bet and don't get near the bonuses u had
Yo I just want to say @cowboyslots strategy works not only did I receive my first hand pay out but my second as well yes is their luck involved 💯 but following his tips I learned what machine have the highest odds of hitting I just about hit a jackpot or a high pay line on every machine from quarter slots too $25 dollar slot was a grate time @cowboyslots thanks you sir

Very volatile to say the least, however I have won more on this than triple stars. I like the panda version better.
I have played my last hot stuff January 3, 2023. Will try red and blue Hard Rock, Indiana. Wish me luck!

How do you know the bonus where you pick is predetermined?

Correct. Always important to read those game rules!
I’m going all in next time with $100 and max betting. I usually only play $20 and stick with the minimum or next bet up. 😅
@@tacocat8608 same. I usually play at the mid range, and I win every now and then, but the win is never that big.

You’re wrong about the gold pop just being a visual. You have a better chance of winning the bonus when the pit is full rather than when empty.
False. Read the rules of the game
💯💯I play this all the time!the pick bonus comes up when u pop the bowl…

On which bonus round?

Hello. When you talk about avoiding the penny machines, are you referring to the 5-cents and 10-cents machines as well?
He means the machines that say 1 cent on them where you bet in 1 cent Increments.

Hi someone told me about a game called Cashman slots and they said they won. Can you folks do a review on this game.
Very good information played it a lot up in Canada
D all the slot, games, tees that’s how they get you to play more and to keep playing
The best version is the Wicked Wheel Fire Phoenix, the best music and is very exciting. But don't chase the bonus.
Nice review Cowboy ! 😘🍀🍀🍀🌹

minor: 9358

Your comes sooner with a full pit gold than an empty pop!

Hi Cowboy, what are your favorite machines at aria?
It's a fun game and entertaining even though I have never gotten the wheel ever at my casino 🎰
Good job!
Does it tell you in the Rules if the game is predetermined? How did you know about the Wicked Wheel being predetermined?
We reached out to a rep to confirm and clarify that it was for sure a pre-determined bonus.
@@CowboySlotscan u explain is it depends on if ur playing max?.. I’m confused 🫤
I think playing the max bet increases chances of the wheel and other bonus feature!!
Yep. It's in the rules for the game
I knew it was predetermined when I used 4 fingers for my last pick (one coin of each left) and I still got the lowest jackpot after 2 pitchforks 😂
Can u explain? How is it pre determined when u can see all them At the end…
Couple things. While that only had seven pages of game rules compared to some others that have even more, each page was an essay. LOL.

Of course you liked it, you won.

🤔🤔 Interesting…
Random question: Have you ever heard of a $10,000 single bet on a slot machine?
The highest single denom I’ve seen is $5000 denom and I’m sure you could play that at 2 credits
I believe your review would have been much different if you would have had 30 spins with no symbol matching and walked away losing your $100 like every other player does.
