There is one way to almost guarantee yourself a good time, satiate your
appetite for slots, and possibly even come out ahead - and that's to enter
a slots tournament. Many casinos now offer promotional slots tournaments
for a fixed entry fee, which entitles you to participate in a multi-day
tournament event, enjoy free room and board at the casino hotel while the
tournament is in progress, and be wined, dined, and treated like the valued
customer you are by casino personnel. Not only that, your participation
gives you the opportunity to compete against other enthusiasts to win thousands
- even hundreds of thousands - of dollars in tournament prize money.
Most slots tournaments have a number of rounds in which contestants
are given the same amount of machines credits and told to play them
until the time is up or their machine credits run out. The contestant
with the most credits at the end of each round wins a substantial prize
and a spot in the final round. The top prizes are usually rewarded to
the top three finalists.
If you enjoy the thrill and excitement of playing slot machines, slots
tournaments may provide jus the advantage you need to come out ahead.
Because slot playing relies solely button quickly (to get as many chances
as you can to hit the jackpot in a limited amount of the time) and you
can also find tournaments that return the greatest share of your entrance
fee in prize money and room and board comps.
.
and the information in the last two sections to get a rough
idea of the machines you should be playing. For example, if you want
$1000 to last for four days of five hours play (20 hours total), that
means you can afford to lose $50 per hour. With average results (assuming
90% payout) and expected losses, you should be playing quarter machines
at three quarters per spin.
If you come up nickels in your calculations but want to play dollars,
give up some of your playing time in order to up the ante. Then, do
as you promised and quit playing when the money runs out!
For those of you who have the courage to play way beyond your means,
remember: there are more promising and lucrative ways for you to invest
your time and money. Dumping your savings into a slot machine, though
seemingly exciting and daring, will not resolve inner conflict, dissatisfaction
with your present situation, or any other business or personal problem
that may be temporarily numbed by the mindless exchange of coins. Set
realistic financial limits, and don't play Russian roulette with your
future.

start when you collect both halves of the Money Bag. In a
separate screen you choose a one out of 5 safes. The safe will
open and show you the bonus you won. If the safe contains a
key, a giant safe will open and a second bonus game will

win the corresponding number of free spins. You can win more
bonus rounds during the free spins. However, you can't win
more free spins during the free spins.

Thunderstruck has two Bonus Features, Free Spins
and Gamble.
The Thor symbol is a wild, multiplier symbol. This
means that it substitutes for any other symbol to
complete winning combinations, except the scatter
symbol. The Thor symbol doubles the payout of any
combination it completes.
The Rams symbol is a scatter symbol. This means that
it does not need to appear in a line on an enabled
payline to win. It can be scattered anywhere on the
five reels, provided two or more Rams symbols appear.
The Thor symbol is a wild, multiplier
symbol. This means that it substitutes for any other
symbol to complete winning combinations, except the
scatter symbol.
The Thor symbol doubles the payout of any combination
it completes.
Multiple Thor symbols on a payline create winning
combinations as shown in the Payout Table.
1. Two Thor symbols and a single Ace symbol on an
enabled payline complete a three Ace symbols combination,
and pay out 10 coins. However, two Thor symbols are
displayed, so the payout is 10 x 2 = 20 coins. Since
two Thor symbols pay out 10 coins, you are paid out
for the three Ace symbols combination, as it is the
higher value payout.
2. Three Thor symbols and two Hammer symbols on an
enabled payline complete a five Hammer symbols combination,
and pay out 800 coins. However, three Thor symbols
are displayed, so the payout is 800 x 2 = 1,600 coins.
Since three Thor symbols pay out 200 coins, you are
paid out for the five Hammer symbols combination,
as it is the higher value payout.
3. Four Thor symbols and a single Nine symbol on
an enabled payline complete a five Nine symbols combination,
and pay out 100 coins. Since, four Thor symbols payout
2,000 coins, you are paid out for the four Thor symbols
combination, as it is the higher value payout.
4. Five Thor symbols on an enabled payline complete
a winning combination, as per the payout schedule,
and pay out 10,000 coins.
The Rams symbol is a scatter symbol. This means that
it does not need to appear in a line on an enabled
payline to win.
It can be scattered anywhere on the five reels, provided
that two or more Rams symbols appear.
Winnings are calculated by multiplying the number
of Rams symbols by the total number of credits bet.
If you have a scatter win and a normal win, you
are paid out for both wins, as the scatter symbol
does not need to appear on an enabled payline to win.
Example:
1. One Rams symbol and one Thor symbol scattered
anywhere on the five reels, does not complete a winning
combination, as the Thor symbol does not substitute
for the scatter symbol. A minimum of two Rams symbols
completes a winning scatter combination.
2. Three Rams symbols scattered anywhere on the five
reels, completes a scatter winning combination. Three
Rams symbols pay out the total amount of credits bet
multiplied by 5. If you have selected a 0.50 coin
and bet 5 coins on each of the 9 Paylines, your total
bet amount is 0.50 x 5 coins = 2.50 credits per payline
x 9 paylines = 22.50 total credits bet. Therefore,
your total payout is 22.50 total credits bet x 5 =
112.50 credits won.
3. Three Rams symbols scattered anywhere on the five
reels, and three Horn symbols on an enabled payline,
complete two winning combinations. Three Rams symbols
pay out 112.50 credits, and three Horn symbols pay
out 10 coins x 2.50 credits bet per payline = 25 credits.
Therefore, the total payout is 112.50 + 25 = 137.50
credits.
