Me and a couple of friends were playing and we all did well that day, and as we were walking out we said hey lets play this and buy the bonus. We played a $250 bonus split between the 3 of us thinking we wouldn't get all our money back but at least we would get a little. So we started the feature and by the end we won a grand total of $12.50 (yes that is twelve dollars and 50 cents). We were in shock at first and then just had to laugh. Lesson learned, never buy a bonus at least for us.

On another note, thank you, Brantley for the latest short and very instructive videos, like this one. I really appreciate it! After subscribing to your channel, I've found myself answering to comments in other channels, when they are ridiculous, like the one I answered today when someone said Cosmo was intentionally ripping people off because a machine was malfunctioning every time the bonus was popping up. The screen turned black and no bonus. It was a themed machine, and Cosmo is most likely not responsible for its maintenance, which I learned with you. It feels good to enter a casino having a much better idea what I'm getitng myself into. Thank you again!

Deal or No Deal has buy a bonus feature at Vegas. Used it a 5 times and 1 out of 5 times was a good bonus above purchase price. Use buy bonus for fun only because it can speed up the loss of you bank roll. Great video. Thanks!

I've seen some KZfaqrs doing the bonus buying and it didn't turn out good for them. I think it's not worth it but just like gambling there's that small chance of getting a good bonus. It's just the matter of playing in the right place at the right time.

I remember seeing a video of a slot earlier this year where in order to trigger the bonus, you had to gather enough of a special symbol. After gathering a certain amount(not the full amount), it allowed you to buy the bonus, however the amount to buy it lowered when you collected more symbols. In some parts of the video, the player ended up spending more "normally betting" to get the required amount of symbols to start the feature rather than what it would of cost to buy the bonus once the first offer to buy it appeared.

I tried this twice on the Coin Trio Piggy Burst machines as an experiment. Both times I was up for the session and thought, "What is the worst I could do? Lose a few dollars or break even?" So I bought a bonus on a two cent denom, 1 credit bet ($70). The first time I won about $100, so just a little more than I purchased the bonus for. The second time (different machine, different casino) I got $19 and change - $50 less than the cost of the bonus. That answered my question about the worst I could do. 😂 I also felt cheated out of the entertainment of playing that $70, even when I won a few dollars on the first attempt.

@gregrowe1168 10 ай бұрын
You guys should do a video on this. Play one of these games and buy the bonus to see if it works. Problem is, on the videos I’ve seen it, $250 was the smallest buy in I think. It went up to $750 on some. So you have to bring a lot of money to do it multiple times. It’s like buying those expensive lottery tickets. You’re pretty much guaranteed to win something on them but it’s usually less than what the ticket cost.

When my local got coin trio in, I happen to be there the day they turned them on. Slot attendants were egging me on to buy a bonus. I agreed IF my ticket went over $200. It eventually did, and ended up on the Pig coin trio. 60 cent wager, buy a bonus was $35. fortunately I got two 'pigs' and my bonus was like $42. It was fun, exciting, but probably won't ever do it again after watching this informative video. I did buy a bonus years ago on some butterfly machine, it was, shall I say, disastrous. I think what most people don't realize is, you pay a high amount but your bonus is only based on the wager that you are set to. In my case it was 60 cents, 35 dollars, and I won 42ish, so I was lucky!

For me it depends on the price of the bonus. I don't go to the casino to get rich but I still like getting bonuses. It's not fun at all losing the same amount it would take to buy the bonus and never even seeing the bonus. So I would rather buy if the price is right.

Hey guys! Small request - can you guys a segment on the logistics on how the machine determines if it will pay or not? For example, a machine might pay out 90 percent, but when will it do that calculation to ensure it doesn't overpay? Does it know as you put money into the machine?

I’ve seen a few KZfaq slot players try this feature and yes on average, they lost money. It basically calculates what the slot would pay at a lower bet. Say you purchase a bonus for $500. It’s essentially like getting a bonus at around a $15 bet calculating about a 25x bonus on average each time, which comes out to about $375. You may get more or less like you said but play it an infinite amount of times and you’ll get your 75-80% payout. It’s basically similar to picking a mystery bonus on games like dancing drums. You’re gambling on whether you can randomly get a better feature by letting the rng pick it for you.

If a game has different denom options to play, 1cent, 5 cent, $1.00, etc. If your budget is to play $5.00 per spin is there an advantage to playing 1cent at the max for $5.00? Or the min of $5.00 on $5.00 denom?
