Deespite what felt like a reasonable selection of bonuses, I finished the last video £180 in reverse. I had a couple of near misses and a ultimately it was a case of failing to hit anything spectacular. In combination with the cost of getting them together, it proved another tough session.
I look back on last year where I had a spell of holding a balance for a significant period and wonder how on earth it happened. Luck is a capricious beast at times and it simply hasn’t been on my side to the same extent this year. I have always spoken about the two factors required when making these videos – landing the bonuses, and then getting decent bonuses. It is a double whammy required to have a good session, and most times when one or both of them are missing, it will be a significant loss.
The importance of the occasional huge win cannot be overstated either. A 500x or better generally leads to a winning session, often to a significant profit. These come along rarely, but make all the difference. I shall persist, knowing that statistically I am likely to hit something eventually, I just hope for a little more of a run for my money in the meantime.
In the interests of improving my chances of a better win, I have decided to go megaways only today. Looking back, a lot of my better wins have come from these style of games. They are often harder to land, but the rewards can certainly be there if your luck is in. We shall see.
Here is the full list of games attempted, along with their respective costs:
