Pompeii at the local is my go-to when I want a proper slap
Pompeii at the RSL on a Friday night, that's my slap too mate 🔥🔥 Reel Power setup throws people at first cause you're paying for the reels instead of lines, but once it clicks you get why it's a classic. Volcano hits and the whole floor knows about it 🌋💰
Had the free games feature land last arvo at the local and carried on like a fool, no shame. Only thing worth knowing is the RTP gets set per venue, so my Pompeii up here might play a fair bit different to yours down the road 🤑
Mate I've been feeding Pompeii since the old Aristocrat cabinets ruled the clubs, and you're spot on about the Reel Power bit confusing the newbies 😄 took our nephew three visits to work out why his credit vanished quicker paying for reels. The free games can be brutal or glorious, no in between. Had the whole tavern turn heads myself one Saturday when the feature kept retriggering, ah well, we grind on.
Took my nephew's confusion the other way, SamJackpot 😄 I run a flat bet per spin on Pompeii so the Reel Power cost doesn't chew the bankroll before the feature hits. Free games gave me the glorious side last Friday, volcano went off and I was up, cashed the lot before it turned. Classic for a reason. 🎰
Flat bet per spin, Wollongong? Each venue sets its own RTP on these anyway, your "discipline" might just be a looser pub 🎰
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
Nah, i dunno about discipline, you just gotta sit on it every evening and wait for that volcano to blow! It’s the best provider hands down. 🔥💰🎰🤑
Backing my slot to the last spin.
Grinder might have a point though, same machine two venues apart can play like chalk and cheese since the pub sets its own RTP within the state floor. My local Pompeii has been dead as a doornail for weeks, went and tried the club's one and the free games hit on the third session. Coincidence? Maybe, but I know which machine my A$ is going near 🎰
Chalk and cheese is right, I reckon the club one near me pays heaps better than the pub version, no coincidence there. But nah Lee, sitting on it waiting for the volcano is how you torch a balance 😅 Pompeii rewards the lucky session, no routine beats that wheel bonus coming in hot 🔥🎰
The "pub sets its own RTP" theory gets thrown around too easy imo. Grinder and Lee are both treating it like you can shop around for the loose machine, and maybe venue to venue there's a bit of difference, but short sessions swing so wild on Pompeii that you'd never prove it either way. I've had the free games dead on arrival at the club and then the wheel bonus landing two visits later at the same machine. Same box, different night, completely different feel.
Chris is closer to it than the rest of you. It's a volatile slap and the feature either comes or it doesn't. Sit there every evening waiting on the volcano and the Reel Power cost of paying for all those reels eats you alive between hits. My rule's simple, set the session bankroll, flat bet per spin, walk when it's gone or when a feature banks a win worth cashing. Two blokes at my local swear their Pompeii is tighter than the one down the road and honestly I reckon they just remember the bad nights louder. 🔸🎰💸
Denier's got a fair point actually, hard to prove anything over a few short hits 😅 But my two cents, the club one near me definitely felt looser than the pub version, free games rolled in twice in one session once which never happens at my local. Could be luck, could be the venue setting, who knows.
What I'll say about Pompeii is the Reel Power thing changes how you chase it. Paying for reels means more ways but each spin costs more, so when the volcano feature goes quiet you can feel it fast. That wheel bonus though, when it stacks with free games, proper carry-on moments 🤑🔥 Done me alright a few Friday nights.

Paul's free games twice in one session is the dream 🔥 my best Pompeii arvo at the RSL the volcano just kept rolling. Pub one near me's been ice cold for months though 🤷
Spinning reels dawn to dusk.
Free games twice in one sesh, that's the dream 🔥 My Pompeii nights at the club have gone cold lately too. Still love that wheel bonus, pays when it lands ah well
One slot, one love 🎰
🤣 the Pompeii pub near me has taken so much of my pay I should get a plaque on the wall. One more spin, promise 🍿
Came to hit, stayed to tilt 🍿

@WollongongSouth the plaque joke is too real 😭 my rule with Pompeii is a set loss limit before I sit down, walk when it's gone no matter what the volcano teases. Last month I set A$80 at the club, hit the wheel bonus on the last handful of spins and cleared the session in profit for once. Slot pays those who stand up 💸
500x one day, zero the next. Classic.

@DiamondGG1999 "pays when it lands" mate that's doing a lot of heavy lifting, the wheel on Pompeii lands for me about once a blue moon and hands back half of what I fed it. Free games twice in a sesh is RSL fairytales, someone always claims it and nobody ever shows a screenshot of the ticket. Did you even withdraw from those cold nights or did the club eat the lot 😂💸
A paper win won't feed you.
@MaxWithdraw_FC mate you're just running cold, that's all it is 😅 I've had the wheel land twice in one arvo at my local, paid for the whole session and then some. Free games too, got lucky on a A$20 slap once and the whole place heard about it 😂
Pompeii runs hot and cold like any pokie, some Fridays it just teases you all night. Doesn't mean the bonus is a myth... just means it owes you one 👀
