Chasing the grand on Mighty Cash emptied my wallet fast
ah the old Mighty Cash trap, know it well. been busted more banks than you've deposited on those Hold & Spin chasers, mate 😄 turned 50 into 5k once on a similar aristocrat machine years back and it ruined my discipline for a decade, ha.
what gets me is how the same pokie plays different from venue to venue, no single published return, each club sets it within the state minimum, so one pub's machine can be cruel and the club down the road feels generous. reckon it's worth asking the regulars which local machines are running warm before you take another slap at it. hard limit is the right call, stick to it even when the feature feels one spin away. ah well, we grind on
Good question FreoBlue, no shame in asking. On the Mighty Cash machines the grand's just the top tier of the progressive jackpots sitting above the machine, it climbs as everyone in the club feeds it, and the Hold & Spin is how you chase it. One fella near me hit it at the club a while back and you'd swear the whole bar heard the count-up 😄 Just remember those jackpots don't change what each venue sets the machine to pay out underneath, so the same pokie can play dead stingy at one pub and decent at another.
I remember the old slots first-hand.
Hard limit's the only way mate, these Aristocrat Hold & Spin chasers will eat your whole arvo 😅 stick to it and the grand stays a dream, not a debt 🎰
The grand on Mighty Cash is a proper trap, the meter climbing while your session balance goes the other way 😅 I set my bet per spin before I sit down and whatever's left when the bonus round's done, that's the cashout conversation. Got burned chasing the mini once, never again 🎰💸
Royal77, that story's exactly the bit people skip. One bloke hits the grand on a A$2.50 bet and suddenly half the club's feeding the thing at max bet for the rest of the arvo. That's the business model working as designed.
Seen the same pattern on Mighty Cash plenty of times, someone wins big within eyeshot and the machines around it get hammered for hours afterwards. The meter keeps climbing either way, the house keeps getting paid either way, and the punter chasing it walks out lighter nine times out of ten. Fine, have your crack with a hard limit, LeeBrekkie's approach is sensible. But let's not pretend the A$2.50 story is repeatable — it's a lottery ticket, and long-run it's still minus for everyone feeding the meter. Any of you actually cashed a decent Mighty Cash session out? Screenshot or it didn't happen.

@Brizzie_Mate spot on, Mighty Cash survives purely on the chasing punter. Watched the same thing at the local — grand goes off, machine goes dead quiet for months, and everyone who jumped on after swears they were "due". Genuinely wonder how many of those A$2.50 spinners ever actually withdraw anything 🤡💸
Show me the withdrawal first 😏
Brizzie_Mate nails it. Seen that exact scene at the Cairns club, one grand and suddenly everyone's on A$2.50 a spin chasing it. Set your limit, walk when it's gone. 😭🎰

@Brizzie_Mate exactly this, one grand drops and suddenly the whole club's a congregation feeding A$2.50 a spin like it's church 😂 funny how the bloke who actually hit it is long gone while everyone else is donating. Gotta ask though, anyone in here actually up long-run on Mighty Cash, or just asking for a mate? 💸😏

@SpinToWin247 deadset this 😂 seen it at my local too, grand hits and ten blokes pile on straight after. I just stick to my Lightning Link, cheaper lesson if it goes quiet 🔥🎰

@SteveDarwin same at my local, queue forms the second a grand drops 😂 I stick to Mighty Cash at A$1 a spin and cashing out in time is everything, walked with A$600 off one hit last month.

Had a grand on Mighty Cash drop the metre next to me at the club once, bloke hit it with a A$2.50 bet 😱 gotta be in it... Lightning Link's still my pick though ah well 🔥🎰
@Royal77 gotta be in it, sure, and the metre's silent for the other 99 punters feeding it A$2.50 a spin. How'd your own Mighty Cash session end up, profit or another donation? 🤡💸
The house always wins.

@SlotQueen88 the "due" mob are the worst of the lot. I stick to my usual A$1 a spin on Mighty Cash and if it hasn't pinged in twenty spins I'm off to the footy multis instead. A dead machine after a grand hits is dead for a reason, no chasing it 😭💸
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.

My sessions on Mighty Cash have been absolute rippers lately, so who’s gonna say it's just a drain, eh? I swear after hitting a run on that one, I pulled out a huge win, like A$1,200 ngl, so it definitely doesn't have to be just a donation. Even when it gets quiet, I keep spinning on it every evening because Lightning Link is the best provider hands down, but Mighty Cash delivers big when it decides to! 🔥💰🎰🤑
Backing my slot to the last spin.

@Lee_Brekkie fair dinkum, A$1,200 off Mighty Cash is a bloody good day out, no arguing that. I just find it's the runs after that decide whether you keep it. Bet 2 a spin and it hit for me once, walked straight to the counter with the lot, because the next fifty spins were a graveyard 😭💸

Welcome to the pokies, mate 😂 Nobody can give you odds on the grand, that's the point, it hits when it feels like it and the rest of the time it eats your wallet. I've had a Mighty Cash session where it just drained me for an hour, then last Friday at the club it dumped a decent hit on me out of nowhere. 🔥
My advice, don't chase the grand at all. Take whatever it gives ya, lock it in, walk. The guys here cashing out A$600 or A$1,200 are the ones who left instead of handing it back 🤑💰
