Choy Sun Doa at the local club is chewing through my budget
That 5 out of 6 volatility rating on Choy Sun Doa is no joke, mate. I gave it a slap at the club last Friday and it chewed through my session money quicker than most Aristocrats I play. The Reel Power 243 ways thing makes it feel like wins should come constantly, then you go 20 spins on dead machine mode and wonder where the bankroll went.
On the free games choice, I've been picking the middle multiplier option mostly, keeps things steadier. The 20 spins at the top multiplier hits hard when it lands but I've had it pay nothing more times than I'd like. Worth remembering too that the same machine can play differently pub to pub, RTP gets set per venue within the state minimum, so the one at your club might be tighter than the one down the road. Might explain why mine at the local seems harsher than the one I tried at the other side of town. 😭🎰
Are you noticing the feeling like waiting for a big wave when playing Choy Sun Doa? That 5/6 volatility rating really shows up, doesn't it, mate. You might hit long stretches where things seem dead, but that's the nature of the beast when the variance is set that high, even with the Reel Power and Free Games features. It demands patience, or your spin sample is just gonna be short and brutal.
Choy Sun Doa's always been a fader between features. I take the lower multiplier choice mostly, fewer tears waiting. The one grand hit I got came off the 30x though 😉 ah well, we grind on
Choy Sun Doa at 5/6 volatility will eat your budget whatever choice you make. Also worth remembering the club sets its own RTP within the state minimum, so yours could be tuned tighter than the pub down the road.
Cashout screenshot or it didn't happen.
Yeah, the volatility sucks. Saw one at the club that felt particularly gimped this time, probably just how they set the RTP for that venue.
RTP doesn't lie, win screenshots do.
Interesting that a couple of you reckon the same machine felt tighter at different venues. On a small spin sample you can't really tell the venue setting apart from ordinary variance, that's the trap. The 30x free games choice is where the swings live, takes longer between features but the hits carry more weight, whereas the lower multiplier keeps the session breathing. I keep notes after each slap and Choy Sun Doa always reads the same way, long dead patches then the reel power ways cluster a few wins together.
Do the EV, then spin.
InRTPweTrustLoyal has a point on sample size, sure. Still, the one at my club feels dead between features every visit. Lower multiplier choice for me, patience costs too much at 5/6.
Licence first, deposit after.
Gave Choy Sun Doa a proper slap at the club yesterday and the lesson stuck. Low multiplier choice every time for me. The 20x options look juicy but at 5/6 volatility you're banking on a feature that might not turn up before the budget's gone. I set my bet per spin low, waited out the dead stretches, hit the free games on the third visit and took the 10x-ish choice, didn't hit big but walked away even-ish. Discipline over greed, every session.
Model_Sheet is right about the dead feeling between features, that's just the Reel Power 243 ways spreading small wins thin. And InRTPweTrustLoyal has a fair point on sample size, one rough arvo at your club doesn't prove the venue's tuned tight. Could just be variance chewing you. If the machine feels dead three visits in a row though, I just move to another Aristocrat in the room and stop feeding it. Curious whether anyone here swears by the high multiplier and actually gets paid?
500x one day, zero the next. Classic.

@Model_Sheet yeah the dead stretches are brutal on this one, I copped like 40 spins of nothing at the club last Friday night, thought the thing was asleep 😴 Still reckon the low multiplier is the way though, I learned that lesson the hard way chasing the 20x on Choy Sun Doa and cooked A$80 in what felt like ten minutes. Ah well. Funny thing is when the feature does land on the low choice it's usually enough to get you back near square and suddenly the arvo is fun again. Golden torches and all 🔥🎰
One slot, one love 🎰
@Royal77 40 dead spins sounds like half my Choy Sun Doa sessions ngl 😅 low multi saved me last Friday though, actually landed a decent feature. Ah well, maybe the machine was warming up 🔥
One slot, one love 🎰
@DeadSpin_Survivor warming up haha, that's exactly what I tell myself every time 😅 low multi is the only way I survive Choy Sun Doa, chased the 20x once and got absolutely shafted. When the feature does land on the low choice it still pays decent ngl, happy days 🔰🎰
Backing my slot to the last spin.

@Lee_Brekkie low multi's all I'll touch on Choy Sun Doa now either. Mate of mine reckons the 20x only wakes up after a big cleanout, and word is the one at my local had been freezing punters out for weeks before someone got a decent hit off it 😏 you know the rest.
I only ever pick the low multi too, the 20x scared me off after one session 😅 does the feature actually land more often on low or does it just feel that way?
Learning to clear wagering, go easy 🙏
