Tactics to build a balance from pennies.

Right so you guys know the drill you get free rounds or a free bonus and have so little you can only play certain slots that have adjustable lines? But which games do you guys play to get that balance higher for other slots? A good game plan I have found believe it or not is 1p a spin on ghost pirates and just set it on auto if you can;t bear to see anything missed I recommend you set the slot to stop after a win of £1-2 or higher though to keep some control of it. Another good one is bloodsuckers 1-3 lines,tales of krakow 2-4 lines,1-3 lines on voodoo vibes and fortune teller(all netent games) does anyone have games from other providers this works well on? Hitman seems to work goodish I turned 35p into a tenner got bonus game with 3lines active picked daniel and found the 6 multiplier. Another one this works on is Retrol Reels and retro reels extreme heat again don't do more than 5lines on these. I would love to hear input on this. Lets not waste these pennies they can prove to be the start of massive wins. all the skins of wild witches etc work well on 1-4 lines too!

Keno. If I get a good paying pattern playing a penny per game I up it to a quarter and sometimes get lucky and turn my pennies into dollars.

If only keno was as cheap to play on netent and mg as it is on rtg/rival. Think it is like £1 a game on netent but is good shout when allowed on rtg/rival

The only tactic that work is....

1. Be lucky.
2. Win. 

You win 30p on a slot though most think oh I'll just try it all in one spin on immortal what I'm saying is even from this low if wagered the right way you can win big and I have turned small cash into big cash often using the 1 or 2lines method of course luck is required too but these ways have worked alot it is kind of due to the fact you are making it lose so to meet the legal payout requirements the machine has to win eventually. I saw pic online guy did 1000 1p spins and won the jackpot on thunderstruck 1 £300(it came in the free spins)

And I saw someone on polish forum winning €20 from 2€ bonus at vera john, played 1 spin of €20 in Gonzo Quest and won over €22.000 with it  if you're lucky you're going to win, if you're not then there's nothing that can save your cash 

Blackjack actually done better than any other game for me so far. On RTG software though. Used to play a lot of RTG freerolls that had a relatively small prize pool, so too often I won prizes like few dollars. Blackjack on minimum bet of $1 proved most suitable to build balance up to $10, assuming you play it properly.

I have no idea what I would do on Microgaming. Most of their slots are too streaky to have any kind of viable strategy.

There were only a few times that I managed to build up my balance back having less than a dollar. I remember I did it on Count Spectacular; I had around 60 cents and I got back up to $8. Another RTG slot that has been very lucky for me is Haunted Opera. But I think every time was a pure luck, more often I'd lose easily.

That would void his winnings though surely not many casinos allow higher than €8-10 a spin when completing wagering requirements

I once had 22c left from a small $20 deposit. Moved on over to Thunderstruck and got it up to around $22 after doing 9c spins.  Moved to the Osbornes slot and won a fair bit on there and finally back to the game that initially took all my money which was Alaskan Fishing, managed a huge win on there for 60c and ended up withdrawing a whopping $600.  That was a few years ago now though and I've never had luck like that since.

I do have a question though bigdk.  You have said in the past that you know when to up the bet on Thunderstruck but I don't recall you actually said what it was about the slot that made you up your bet.  Care to share more info on this?

A mixture of things blue frequent 2 scatters,sudden big line hits with a wild higher than aces flurries of wins from nowhere can also be an indication obviously none of this is completely fullproof but I remember one day in 2011 when I got up to £200 twice in one day same casino just on thunderstruck so it must be somewhat legitimate as this a really high variance game and can eat cash as fast as bdba as we all know.

I don't know if any NetEnt casino has max bet req. during playing bonus money. There is no such a rule at Vera John at least so he got paid.

Not sure what ones but have read stories about players complaining though I never bet so big any more so I won't void any of them unless I miss-clicked

yeah, there are a lot of casinos with such rules but I doubt any NetEnt casinos have them, on other forum a lot of users spend all of their netent free spins winnings just on 1 spin  I think about doing the same, at least either I'll meet WR or save myself some time 

I agree about the Keno. I have gotten a very good saving win more then once on a few cents from a tournament win. Thunderstruck and the other games look so fun to play so I am a bit jealous  .

I just save my pennies and use them to pay taxes on something like a candy bar.

Some of these games you can't play are stomach churning at times though Rena more often than not Thunderstruck for example can eat up £20 in minutes if you aren't careful and sometimes this is even at 9p a spin! Then don't even get me started on Dead or alive and Reel Steal also brutal on the balance!

Surely, its a good idea to play lower variance slots if your balance is extremely low. Thus, from my experience Thunderstruck would be the game to avoid in such circumstance.

Main problem with Microgaming is that lowest variance slots are actually their older 40 liners like The Grand Adventure and similar but they are quite expensive to play with minimum bet of 0,40. Most of the time, for me at least, those slots give winnings across multiple lines nearly every spin.

On one hand you are right but should you be on this one at the right time you could hit a biggy I remember 3 years ago around this time I was playing with £2.50 from a tourney win at europalace I think and I went on thunderstruck at 2 lines and hit 5 castles with wild in seconds seriously and this took my balance up to nearly £10 then i went on to own avalon,gold factory then lastly loaded took me up over £100. Obviously Thunderstruck more likely to hammer you into the ground lol hammer get it! but if you are on it when it is playing nice it can be lucrative as you know As I said in my last posts the very best games to mega lowroll on are retro reels all except diamond glitz which I find absolutely crap! Hitman(for the bonus round) and even mega moolah original at 2lines works sometimes I won £12 on 2lines once(amazing free spins)

I have just now thought of another good one when the balance is nearly depleted or just plain low from sucky free rounds! The game is dr love and Volcano Eruption(formerly known as hot hot volcano) These 2 slots I turned 32p into £160 at redkings which is just an amazing feat it's the difference between 32p pack of crisps/sweets and a meal and night out for a couple lol!

True enough, but once again it proves Microgaming slots are streaky, and as I said the only couple of slots that are less so are even more expensive to play on minimum bet than their 243 line slots.

Also, on a few occasions, I did tried to employ some of your tactics you described in few other threads, at least just for the sake of doing something else than I usually do, but it didn't really gave much results :D I did have fun though

At least you had a bash so to speak. Of course they won't work every time if they did I'd be rich my methods are simply to potentially make the bankroll last longer and hopefully get that wonder hit wish it always came!

Low bankroll means low stakes. IMO just avoid slots which has a bonus feature for example pick me to revel cash prizes. Play slots with free spins feature. In most cases free spins winnings are tripled or have even higher multiplier.
