Miss Kitty at the pub, heads up, the RTP is set per venue
Good call on the per-venue RTP, that explains why the same Miss Kitty plays like two different machines between my local and the club up the road. She's a 5/6 volatility beast too, sticky wilds in free games are the whole draw, but the base game will chew a slap fast if the feature's hiding. How are you blokes structuring your bet per spin on her, flat small stakes till the free games land, or do you bump it up when you feel one coming?
500x one day, zero the next. Classic.
That two-machine feeling between venues is exactly what I'd expect when the RTP is set per venue within the state minimum, same cabinet, different return profile. On a small spin sample you can't really tell which one you're sitting at, and with 5/6 volatility the base game will happily eat a A$50 slap before the Free Games with Sticky Wilds land. I keep a note of roughly how often the feature shows up at my usual pub versus the club, and the difference is noticeable session to session. 📊
Do the EV, then spin.
Turned a fifty into a grand on Miss Kitty at the RSL once, sticky wilds stacked up lovely in the free games, then the pub one down the road ate two slaps without a whimper. Same cat, different temperament, ah well, we grind on 😉
SamJackpot, grand off a fifty is a nice night out, long-run the cat still takes more than she gives. 5/6 volatility means the feature funds it, base game just eats slaps.
Cashout screenshot or it didn't happen.
Brizzie_Mate has a point about the long run, but the per-venue thing is why I keep sessions short on her. Had a slap at the club last arvo where the free games landed quick and the sticky wilds held the screen together; the pub version nearer me would've eaten that same A$50 before a sniff of the feature. Two visits, two cats 😭🎰
Funny how everyone blames the cat when the venue sets her mood 😉 had the same at Wollongong leases - one Miss Kitty pays, her twin down the road chews slaps and shrugs. 5/6 volatility was always the old-school grind, back when Queen of the Nile ruled we knew features funded everything. Don't marry the machine, fellas, she won't marry you back 😄
It's all hit and busted before, folks.
MissFortuneWin99 nailed it, the venue sets her mood and we cop the blame 😭 my rule is give the pub Kitty one slap, if the base game dead-spins through it I walk to the club version next time. Sticky wilds in the free games are the whole reason I sit down at all, base game at 5/6 volatility is just the entry fee.
Bankroll discipline wins 💸
Stirring the pot a bit, but half you blokes would swear the pub Kitty is a dead machine before you'd admit your own timing's off 😄 I've copped plenty of slaps from her at the club too, sticky wilds or no sticky wilds, 5/6 volatility chews a fifty quick smart regardless of whose lease she's on. Queen of the Nile used to get the same whinging, and she funded half the good nights I've had.
I remember the old slots first-hand.
FreoDad's right, a fifty gone before the free games land is standard Kitty behaviour at 5/6 volatility. I give her a set bet per spin, hit the feature or walk. 💸

@Wollongong_True the set bet and walk discipline is the only sane way to play Kitty, I'll give you that. My gripe is people blaming the venue when the same fifty dies at the club too, like FreoDad says. And Darwin, yes the venue can run different settings, which is exactly why I don't trust any pub Kitty story without seeing what the return actually is.

@RngGodGod nah same fifty dying everywhere doesn't mean the settings are identical though, tight Kitty just eats your A$50 faster 😅 I've had a pub Kitty up here go dead for weeks then one Friday it spat me a nice hit in the free games, sticky wilds doing their thing. Feels looser some venues ngl, but could just be variance having a laugh with me.
One slot, one love 🎰
😣 Only played Miss Kitty a couple of times at the pub near me and thought the machine was just broken. So the venue can actually have different settings on the same game? Does anyone know how you'd tell if a pub Kitty is on a stingier lease, or is it purely trial and error 🙏 still learning all this side of pokies, cheers.
Asking dumb bonus questions — that's the job.
Yeah Darwin, same game can run different setups venue to venue, so the pub Kitty near you might play tighter or looser than the one at my club 😅 Doesn't stop me giving her a go every Friday though, sticky wilds in the free games are still all-time favourite territory for me... hit a beauty off a A$20 feed a few months back and nearly knocked my pot over. Ah well, that's Kitty for ya 🐱🔥

@Royal77 every Friday eh, funny how the "all-time favourite" never seems to come with a screenshot of the actual payout 😏 Bet the pub loves your ritual though. Did you even withdraw from Kitty last month, or is she all a win on paper?
Show me the withdrawal first 😏

@Darwin yeah nah the machine isn't broken, that's just Kitty 😅 you can't really tell the lease setting by looking, no sticker or anything. Only way I've ever guessed is feel over a few visits. My local one near Ballarat plays tight for ages then just dumps a feature on you out of nowhere, bloody love it 🐱💸
