No matter if you get 3, 4, or even 5 scatters, you always receive 15 free spins. The only thing that changes is the extra bonus you receive just for getting them.

For example: If you play at $2.25 per spin and get 3 scatters, you win $11.25 and 15 free spins.

It's even more fun, when during this "free spin feature" you get 3 or more scatters again. You then "re-trigger the free spin feature", meaning you get another 15 free spins! You can re-trigger the free spin feature unlimited times!!

Because of how fast the rolls are spinning during this feature, it's hard to get a nice looking screenshot, but this one should give you an idea of what can happen.


Since Thunderstruck is my favourite game, I play it most and therefor have the most screenshots of this game. If you'd like to see a screenshot of a certain win, see if there's one available in the table below. By comparing the wins in the screenshots to the payout table, you'll learn how the payout schedule works.

The most important aspects of Thunderstruck's payout:

- Thor is "wild", meaning it can substitute for any other symbol except for scatters
example

- a Thor in your winline doubles your win
compare this to this

- you can win on multiple lines in 1 spin
example

- during the "free spin feature", all your wins are trippled
example

So where does that $150 come from?
the payout table says that 5 Thunders = 250 x your line bet
at wager $0.90 you bet $0.10 on 9 lines, so your line bet is $0.10
250 x $0.10 = $25
the Thor in the winline doubles your win = 2 x $25 = $50
the free spin feature tripples that win = 3 x $50 = $150






The different games have different wagering options, ranging between $0.09 and $90 per spin on the games I prefer playing. This means that when you feel lucky, you can wager a higher amount per spin than when you just have some time to spare and want to gamble for fun.

How to decide what wager to play at?
I usually devide my starting balance by 40 and round off to the nearest wager amount below. For example:

My favourite game is Thunderstruck. I only play this game at 5 coins per spin, meaning wagering options are $0.45, $0.90, $0.90, $2.25, $4.50, $9, $11.25, $22.50, $45 and $90 per spin. On my budget, spins higher than $4.50 are out of the qestion (unless I have been really lucky before, but then only for a few quick spins for the thrill). A bet of $4.50 may sometimes be within reach, but I often don't feel comfortable wagering that much money on 1 spin. When I play at $0.45 and get lucky, winnings are still rather small. So, usually I play at $0.90 or $2.25, depending on how high my balance is. If my starting balance is $0.90 x 40 = $36 or less, I play at $0.90 per spin. If my balance is above that, I play at $2.25 per spin. This ensures that I can always play at least 40 hands before my balance is empty, giving a good estimate of "the mood of the game". When a game does well, your balance will be well above your starting balance after those first (balance/40) spins. If it isn't, quit that game and find another, or come back later.

The most important thing to go on when deciding what wager to play at, should be your gut feeling. If you increased your wager and don't feel comfortable spinning the wheel, put it back to the lower wager right away. Else you will feel worse and worse if you lose, and will want to try and make up for any losses by keeping your wager higher than usual. Some games have small chances at big prizes. Those games should be played at lower wagers to spread risk.

The same goes for the decision to keep on playing or stop: as soon as any game makes you feel uncomfortable because you are losing too much, stop!

When you started with a $100 balance and played 44 spins (the whole amount in 100/2.25), the balance you have left after those spins are your winnings only. You have wagered your initial $100 balance and your current balance is what you won in return for that wager. If you think the game is doing well and want to play more, remember you are wagering your winnings. The fact that you have winnings, means you beat the odds of the casino. Be proud of them and hold on to them! The casino would of course very much want them back, yet you want to keep on playing because you feel lucky in your game. What do you do?

You have 2 options at this point. The first thing you should do is decide what the amount is you want to withdraw: which part of your winnings you want to keep, no matter what happens, and which part you'd like to wager again to see if you're lucky (if you want to continue playing at all; remember that quitting is always an option!). The safest thing to do is to immediately withdraw the amount you want to hold on to. Go to "Bank", click "Withdrawal" and enter this amount. When you are finished, return to the casino and play on with the rest (if you decided to keep some) of your balance.

If you aren't sure how much you should withdraw, go ahead and withdraw everything but the amount needed for another 10 spins. In 10 spins, you'll know if your luck has ended or continues. If it continues, use the same strategy again: redeem part and play on with the rest. If you later decide you want to try just a few more spins, or want to try playing a different game, you can always put (part of) your withdrawal back into your account. I strongly recommend not doing this though. As I said: the fact that you won means that you beat the casino. Don't give them a chance to win back what is now your money!

But I want to keep on playing!!!
Of course there may be a day that you really have nothing better to do, and you are in the mood to gamble. After all, watching those rolls spin is fun! Fortunately the casino's have a very nice solution for this: low wagers! Stay at the casino you just played at, or try another casino, but play with no more than $10. Play a game like "Carnaval", "What a Hoot" or "Truck Stop" (if available) at $0.09 per spin. At that rate you can play on for ages, even if you lose, or still win some nice cash if you're lucky!

I deposited all I had to spare, and lost it all! What should I do?
Don't let it come that far! don't deposit everything at once, or with just one casino. If one casino won't let you win, try another. If you already lost all you had to spare, don't spend money you can't afford to lose trying to win it back! Wait until you have some money to spare before playing again.
Remember that your odds of winning don't improve by losing. In fact, losing may get you frustrated and impatient, which actually increases your chances of losing even more! Take a deep breath, close your casino software, and only come back to try your luck again when you have some funds to spare.

Now all that's left for me to say is: Good luck!
