Slot games, Casino Rewards & Privileges

I was at the den this afternoon and wow the place was super packed.

The first sign of the traffic was at the B1 carpark. I have never ever seen the car park filled up all the way to the B1 entrance and today is the first time I witnessed. The car park was so full that they even blocked the gantry to the B1 car park. Luckily I can access the B2 car park and that level is also almost full.

The next sign was the queue to enter the casino. Normally, I see jam at the overseas queue but today, the Sporean lane is also packed with 20-30 people going in. I saw the queue at the levy counter is also quite long.

So I skipped the queue and walked over to the VIP floor entrance. Luckily no queue at this entrance, but the VIP casino slot area was packed! This place is usually very quiet and empty but today it is fully occupied. Every Aristocrat machines are occupied. The IGT and WMS are not spared. Even the Bally's are taken up..........You literally have to stand behind people to wait for your turn to play.....and this is on the VIP floor - so many VIPs! I was surprised to see so many "premium" member. I didnt even dare to go look see the main casino which should be many time worse.

I started with WMS Palace of Riches (10c) as it was the only machine available. Then I eyed a 5D when one guy left. I quickly switched over and for the rest of the afternoon, I played only this machine because I cannot afford to stand up with all the people hanging around waiting to play... JP2 was around $4800 and max is $5000. Then I see the familiar trio again. I was thinking to myself - Alamak, the pros are here again. The 3 spreadout and waited for their machines patiently. All the machines were occupied and they waited for quite a while. Eventually they managed to get a machine each. Then they put in their big TITO. The lady started to pull out a book to read. As usual, I can anticipate their moves already. They started playing 1 line 1 credit on auto. Then increase to more lines...... Suddenly the JP dropped at about $4800+. This trio have not even hit the threshold to start their Max Bet yet. I was smiling when I saw that the JP went to a "genuine" player. I would be happier if it has come to me, but I was happy enough that it didnt go to the any of the trio :p.

Anyway I really didnt expect the crowd considering that today is not a public holiday anymore. I supposed alot people are still on leave.

Cheers and good luck to everyone.
 
its good to know that the jp did not drop to them... lol i feel good too :)
 
Happy New Year everyone !:) :p
I spent the new year away in HK with my mom - just for a change this year - got back on the 1st night/2nd early morning of the new year due to the 'lousy late timing' of the HK Air return flight (got 'wrong info' from the Travel Agent here :(:rolleyes: )
Next time shall stick to Cathay or SQ

My secretary 'invited' me to join them on their 3rd Day MBS Venture (Office still closed for CNY on 3rd Day)
So I was down at MBS by 11.20am - only ONE or TWO of the Levy Machines were working for the Side BI Entrance so it was already 11.40am+ by the time I entered the casino

Started off playing the Wheel of Fortune as everywhere was crowded
Not too bad - Initial Good Start as usual ... managed to make over $200+ within 1st 20 minutes or so and only stopped when they arrived
One of them wanted a Non-Smoking Floor so we went up after they got New Membership Cards replaced
Dispersed and I played a 5D slot but simply lost $$ - somehow I just can't win playing at the top floor ....
AND the MBS Slots have REALLY been TIGHTENED Real Badly too - NOT so much thrill playing the slots as extremely difficult to get the Free Games etc ....
So went back down to the smokey B1 and played a 5cts 50 Lions
Only stopped when my friend SMSed me for our 3.30pm Tea Appointment

Withdrew fresh playing capital after Tea/Late Lunch
No free fav machine so saw this unoccupied unpopular Dragon Gate slot
Had to coax it quite long before it started to behave and pay out
At one point in time - managed to even BREAK EVEN !!!!

Went back to Wheel of Fortune
Got the RED once and Green etc several times

My fav Diamonds & Roses slots were also NOT paying me THIS time round !
However when I was over at the nearby standalone 5K slot (also VERY lousy this time round), I heard Free Games being awarded to the other players :mad::eek:
Guess it's a case of Wrong Time Wrong Place etc ......

On Thurs morning (when there was less people around) I played the Outside Fatt Choi Express 100 Lions & 5K slots
Managed to recover some lost capital from the central 5K slot - several fast hundred dollars - until it turned cold
Then went to Kia's fav 5cts 5D (1109?) quite nearby and made another FAST $600-700 here
So yesterday morning I managed to lessen my Losses somewhat by some $1.2k but still lost some 1.5k in all :o
Hmmm .... feel like having a 2nd Try at those 'paying' machines

I did my Usual MBS NiteOver and only exited to go home half an hour before the 24-hour levy expired {had an afternoon appointment !}

Hope to be able to do a CNY RWS Casino visit soon
- don't think the weekend lo-hei lunch day will be a good day with the crowds
- most likely do an After-Work Visit ?

Hi,
I was there on Thur.....tried to get an ang bao but instead I gave the ang bao instead.
I started at GR for a short while. Could not get any good feature at the usual 5K/5D. One guy was max betting and playing diff machines along. I noticed he doesn't stay long on each machine. He was lucky to hit a feature on 5k and chose 10 free games. He hit a full house "cai" X15!

I decided to try the new 2c area at the smokey area. This place is bigger than island delight as bro Kia mentioned. There are a lot of new aristocrat, IGT and the noisy Aruze games. It is so easy to get to play your favorite 5K, 5D and 50D on 2c. If playing aristocrats is likely playing computer games on CRT monitor, than playing the IGT here is like upgrading the monitor to Plasma or LCD flat screens. There are many IGT new games here including Siberian tiger , COE etc. You can change the denomination of these IGT games from 2c, 5c to 10c games. I really like the big screen and the sound system.

My session on the IGT was quite ok. But I didn't have good luck on the aristocrats. As mentioned before I tend to get too carried away and reckless when playing 2c. BR burned very fast when playing high bets on 2c because I believe the payout rate is lower compared to a 5c or 10c game.

Overall, I like the variety of games here and the games here are all standalone non-progressive JP. However, I don't like the smokers sitting or walking around me. I could have spent more time there if not for the cigarette smokes :(

Cheers and good luck to all.

:eek:

Personally I think the penny slots areas are for occasional fun and to try out the new games. For more "serious" gaming, the 10c and 20c premium slots are a better bets with your kind of capital.

In the IRs, time (....so does the BR) flies. Thirst, hunger, fatigue and heart pain are felt only the moment after.

Rest well and I am sure you will be back again :) Good Luck.
 
Another lost trip at Lucky Penny Slot area last evening. I was trying those new machines that I have never play before, $100 to each machine and half my BR gone in an hour. Balance $1k+ try out the Premium Slot, 5K, 5D, FK, 20cts 5D and CSY, tried all the 5 machines, only 20cts 5D didn't give me a feature spin, spent about an hour here and lost another $500. Proceeded to Orchid Club, chosen a wrong FK (CE), another $500 gone in 15 mins, balance $200 br finished at another FK machine. :(
Still wanna to go tonight.;) but will pay a visit to MBS first before heading to RWS. MBS still gave me 4 nights comp stays for the month of Jan and another 4 nights for Feb. :p Going to use my balance 9kPD to exchange some wines, need to stock up my 3 quater empty wine cabinet. Didn't know that wines are so popular among our family members, during this 3 family members gathering night - X'mas, New Year and CNY, we totally comsumed 30 bottles of wines, leaving a almost empty wine cabinet behind, now I will have use my balace PD to topup the cabinet again.
 
Not sure if the payout is bad during cny or simply my luck??? Went to MBS past 3 days, not once came out with winning
Didn't play 2cts CE, only concentrated on 5cts FD & FK(standalone & hyper-linked), most machine pay peanuts during free game (some don't even trigger free game!!), none I can recall gives a 'proper' payout. My BR was $1500 each visit, only lasted about 4 hrs of play.
Disappointed with myself for losing $4500 in 3 days, this could have been put to better use.. Sigh.
Was doing some 'self reflection' on my way home, I feel I have to stop somewhere, I have already lost chunk of my hard earned savings since the opening of the casinos. I may not be richer by staying away, but at least still get to keep my hard earned money. Am so sick of the kind of lousy feeling after loosing in the casino.
Adios MBS!! Definitely won't be visiting you or RWS again..
Wish all bros & sis here lots of luck.. Cheers:)
 
I am sorry to hear that, Slotlov.
Slot play is not about winning, so better don't hold expectation when you play, treat it more like an entertainment, well in deed, an expensive entertainment. Play with good mood is very important and don't let any happening / people beside you to affect your mood.
Lastly, I like to emphasize this, work hard and play hard, and oh yes, work SMART and play SMART too ;).

Sorry bro to hear about your painful losses. I've lost and I've surrendered althogether.Cannot afford to keep losing and keep going back to MBS/RWS. The slot machines are killers.

Please take comfort that you have walked away with some realization that the casino is a hell hole. I went through that for the past one year of membership and I've managed to stop my great urge to return. I know I will lose at least 2K at each visit. It was good initinially, but in the end, I lost and lost and continued to lose......So good-bye to MBS and good-bye to RWS.

Now we know why MBS made so much!!!! Many more Singaporeans are losing big time , addicted to gambling big time and it is a Big Time Problem.

Take care Bro and wish you the best for the future. I managed to crawl back with my monthly salary - now steady and slowly climbing back and healing those painful wounds. A painful lesson to be learnt.

Take care Bro...and all the best for the future. Casinos is no no for me now....and good luck and take care to all brothers and sisters who are still entertaining themselves with the slot machines. Good Luck!
 
Hi bro blackhole - long time no see u here .... Happy CNY :)

Ya ... remember - IF u MUST go into the casino
Make sure FIRST that u are truly playing only with money that u CAN and are willing to lose .... otherwise the feeling is NOT too good if u have to feel LOUSY over the losses :(

DON'T CHASE your losses
DON'T increase ur Bank Roll (br) if u really CAN'T Afford to do so
REMEMBER - Slots are ONLY for EXPENSIVE Entertainment [NO Such Thing as sure-win or can-win here :o:mad::( ]
ALSO remember what KIA advises : MUST play with GOOD MOOD

As I've stated before - the FUN Factor isn't strong any further when it comes to the MBS Slots - so the ENTERTAINMENT part has ALSO dwindled down very badly here with hardly any good features etc etc etc ... so NOT at all worthwhile somehow ....

[ALSO my mom GRUMBLES ever so badly if I step into the casinos ... sighs :(:rolleyes:
My earlier intensive casino visits last year COULD also have well contributed to my newly-discovered health conditions such as High Blood Pressure etc (chronic older-age and 'inherited family history' conditions ... hard to escape ???) as well as to my much much flattened wallet condition :mad::(
With my 24-hour casino marathons, must say SLEEP Deprivation for one (or the FRUSTRATIONS felt over the non-features/losses etc) could well have contributed to all these conditions too ... sighzzzzz

Guess it only makes sense/priority for me now to preserve my already-flattened wallet and time etc to see to my health - NOT funny after seeing the Health Scan results :eek::o:confused::*:
AND the time/$$ taken here for the various scans and procedures YIKES .... no joke
Have to fix these schedules between my planned/booked trips too

Ya ... mom keeps on non-stop ...could well have used my LOST $$$ to treat my health conditions without any pinch etc etc etc .....:(
Yes ... it's true .... Health IS Wealth
So Keep Well Folks !!!!]

Errrmm ..... have still yet to do that CNY RWS Visit
Guess will only do so AFTER CNY and after all my urgent/health must-dos are done/settled/seen to

SO - pls keep me UPDATED here on the CASINO SLOT Condition etc :) :D
I MIGHT just Re-appear from the backwoods when :
- have settled/sorted out my health issues
- have 'accumulated $$$' for some meaningful BR, etc
for THAT OCCASIONAL Casino Trip .....
Hahaha ..... me a Casino Die-Hard here :D :o ;)

No need for SE [not an uncontrolled addict] as my pocketbook determines whether I CAN afford to go into the casino or not ... AND for How Long too
 
Hmmm..no new post

Anyway..a short BR. Went to GH yesterday. Jolly loads of people there (I thought after CNY the crowds would thin out). Anyways..went there to test a particular game which I saw on my previous visit. Its called stinking riches (IGT). Wanted to try out by playing lesser line but bigger bet (in bonus all lines are played based on your per line bet). As I went to the first machine which I wanted to try..an uncle was there and I saw his balance...100,000 credits...crap missed the boat.

So I wnt to play another SR machine. Cold as a freezer. RM500 gone in like 30 minutes...crap. Took a break...and play 5D. Genting now has ugraded some slots and there is a few rows of 5D with wide screen. Very interesting...and i makes the older machines looks really old fashioned. Anyways...broke even after 1 hour of playing...highest hit was a full 9 x 8 at 90 credits. Went back to the SR machine to try again. This time it was luke warm...makan-makan ..then spit out abit..and another 1 hour i lost another 500.

Bleh..I thought ok..maybe my SR style cannot use. So..wanted to ciao...lose 1k its ok since I made 5k from last trip. As was walking out ...I passed the 50 lions machine which I had a big hit (posted a while ago). Would lightning strike 2x? Aiyah...decided to put 100 bucks test water. Few spins in....didnt look to good..so I started to mess with the paylines and bets again. LOL...again on 38 line 3x credits..I hit the free spin and ...I hit the almost same hit again. Couldnt take photo this time as a lot of uncles started to gather around and started looking at my wins.

Pocketed the 82k credits and cashed out cepat cepat. I high tail out with a anet win of 3k and 30 GP points. :)

So, thought okla...

Yep, this thread is very inactive nowadays.

Somehow the Aristocrats machines are the more "reliable" one. The rest are more for entertainment with sophisticated sounds and graphics, but poor payout.

Cheers and Good luck.
 
Lucky you, man.
I have been losing and losing since the first day of CNY till now, about 30K gone already. :(
I need to pay visit to Sembawang Choy Sun Ye Temple and Bukit Merah 4-faced buddha, the visits should more or less regain some of my confident. I noticed that I am losing confident playing slot for the past few weeks as I didn't get a chance to "taste" winning, it was all time "167" (all the way go).
Hope the temple visit helps ;)
 
This is why most people like Aristocrat games, including me.
Those new machines at Lucky Penny Slot area are "killers", after paying heavy lesson fees there, I must ask myself to avoid this area, the payout % is apparently lower than those at other areas, probably around 90% only and some more all the machines are not hyperlink to progressive prices.

I gave up new games like Dragon Emperor and Dragon Empire, for more than a month I tried this 2 games, honestly they are quite fun to play initially, but the payout was so miserable that enough to lessen my interest on them.
I am curious about 5D deluxe which I wonder when I will have the chance play it?:rolleyes:

So Kia for RWS - to recap : other than AVOIDING the new Lucky Penny Slot Area [haven't been there yet]
What/which areas and particular slots [Slot Machine Nos. & Locations] are 'better/more worthwhile' to play then ?

Since my FUTURE Casino Visits are only going to be very occasional and probably short ones too - must KNOW EXACTLY the Best/Correct Areas to attack :p ;) :o :D
 
FFF used to be the worst hyperlink machines at RWS, but now Lucky Penny slot area is the Number One, out of 400 machines at this area, probably only 40 machines payout ave and above, 300 machines pay ave and below and will eat up you BR eventully if you continue playing and the remaining 60 machines are Killer. Avoid this area until they do some adjustment, if the payout continues to be so low, it hardly attracts players, just hope they losen a bit during low season.

Gold Rush is still the place that worth playing, whereas Island Delight, I have not pay attention to this area ever since Lucky Penny Slot area opens. However, I met familiar faces at Island Delight, it shows the machines at Island Delight are still friendly which is quite a good sign.
Another place worth play is the Premium Slot which is 10cts, 20cts and $1. As we all know, higher denom machines usually pay better but it is stressful to play if you don't not have enough BR.
 
Hi Bro Kia..

Take it easy man...hope your luck will be better soon. In respect of your statement that Aristocrats games play slightly better, I will agree. IMO..Aristrocrats slots are less volatile compared with IGTs or WMS. As for the new machines..well maybe you have a point. In GH, I noticed that not many people were playing the upgraded slots. (which is slightly weird..since 5D is a popular game). I can only guess that the payout is bad as such many people are avoiding it. Perhaps..the payout ratio is set lower or ..the machine needs to make a certain amount before it starts to pay. For Aristocrats machine..I believe that is how it operates...it needs to win a certain percentage..before it starts paying.

The 5D deluxe is virtually the same as the normal 5D. You still have to pay extra for the additional spins. However, the major diff compared with Normal 5D is that your may get bonus spins during bonus rounds when you hit with the multiplier. It ranges from 1-3 additional free spins. Payout wise, I dont really see any difference between the 5D deluxe and normal 5D...

Anyways...good luck to jj8 and mindless and Kia.
 
I watched a youtube video about 5D Deluxe, it has 2 extra features to pick, 6free spin x15,x30,x40 and the other feature cannot be seen clearly. So whenever there is a multipiler, the game award extra 1-3 free spins? sounds great but does the extra spin only award to those who pick 6free spins?
