Is Hold & Spin tighter on Lightning Link Best Bet than the others?
Nah mate, my local has the Horse Racing one and the feature dried up on it for weeks, thought it was a dead machine 😅 swear the same cabinet at the pub up the road lands Hold & Spin way more often, reckon they set each venue different. Keep slapping it though, Lightning Link is the best provider hands down 🎰
One slot, one love 🎰
Brizzie, your pub up the road story doesn't surprise me one bit. Each venue sets its own RTP within the state minimum on these Aristocrat machines, so the same Lightning Link cabinet can genuinely play tighter in one joint than the next. I've watched the Horse Racing one at my club go cold for a month while the lads swore the one at the tavern was paying.
Had a slap on Best Bet myself this arvo thinking about your post. Hold & Spin landed once, four symbols short of anything decent, then nothing for the rest of the session. The old slots hit different, that's for sure. I've busted more banks than I care to remember chasing that feature, and I still come back like a fool. Ah well, we grind on 😄
Brizzie's theory lines up with what I've seen too, two Lightning Link cabinets within kays of each other and one lands the feature every few slaps while mine just eats A$20 and shrugs. Since each venue sets the payback where it wants, that pub machine might genuinely be a looser config. Reckon it's worth giving the Horse Racing one at your club a couple more sessions though, dry spells on Hold & Spin can run long before it suddenly spits out the grand 💸
Cashing out in time is half the battle.
That explains a lot, thanks SamJackpot 🙏 my club one eats A$20 and lands nothing, might be the tight config. Worth slapping the other venue's machine instead?
Learning to clear wagering, go easy 🙏
Nah you blokes have talked me into it, my club Lightning Link (Best Bet, the horse one) has been tighter than a fish's proverbial for months, I put A$40 in last Friday and never even smelt the Hold & Spin 😤 Meanwhile I had a hit up at the other venue years back that still haunts me, A$100 off one slap and I'm telling everyone it's my all-time favourite machine lol. Different configs per venue would explain the whole thing, might do a lap of the local machines and see which cabinet is feeling generous 🔥🎰
The hit is close, I can feel it.

@MirrorLinkRefugee word is the club Best Bet up my way went cold for ages too, then one arvo out of nowhere it paid a bloke two seats over and went quiet again 😏
Worth slapping the other venue? If you're already driving past, sure, can't hurt. But don't chase a rumour across town for it. Word of mouth on which cab's loose is half old punters' folklore anyway. I've seen the same cabinet flipped from freezing to warm inside a fortnight, no one at the venue admits to touching it. Those who know, know. Ask around the smoke area at the other joint, listen more than you talk 🤫
Those who know, know.
Maybe I'm being dumb but does the pub one vs club one show the payback on the info screen? Never thought to check before 😅 might save me a drive.
Asking dumb bonus questions, that's the job.

@SpinToWin_Club A$40 with no Hold & Spin at all, that's your cue to stand up mate. I keep bet per spin low on Best Bet and walk if the feature doesn't show in 20 spins 💸
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
