There is also a jackpot: if five lemons on the fifth line, the gamer is entitled to an increased line coefficient – X20.
General characteristics:
- The minimum bet amount is 10 dollars;
- The maximum bet is 2500 dollars;
- The winnings on the lines summed up;

How to play Lucky Slot
The mechanics is very simple, even a beginner will be able to understand the management. The first thing you want to specify the rate, the special panel has six sums for quick start: 5, 10, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 dollars. You can also specify an arbitrary value in a special box, for example, 150 dollars.
To run the lines you need to click on the “Bet” button. If you want to activate the automatic rotation of the reels, you should switch the toggle switch near the tool “Autoplay” (at startup from the personal account will be written off each time the previously specified rate).
How is winnings calculated?
The winnings are calculated by the formula: total bet amount ÷ number of lines * coefficients of game elements and winning line.
Winning combinations with odds:
three watermelons give – X1;
four watermelons on the line – X3;
five watermelons – X10;
three cherries – X2;
four cherries – X5;
five cherries – X15;
three lemons – X5;
four lemons – X10;
five lemons – X25.
The line coefficient is equal to its number, so the first line gives X1, the second line gives X2, etc.
Example: you bet 600 dollars, the entire amount is divided by the number of active lines. For one gets 600 ÷ 5 = 120 dollars. You have dropped four cherries. This combination gives X5. Images are located on the third line, which brings X3.
The total winnings are: 600 ÷ 5 *3 * 5 = 120 * 3 * 5 = 360 * 5 = 1800 dollars. The net profit will be: 1800 – 600 (initial bet) = 1200 dollars.
Strategy for winning
If you decide to play Lucky Slot on 1xGames regularly, you’ll need a thorough strategy. With mindless betting on a long distance, you run the risk of going into deficit. You can use different tactics for a constant profit, let’s analyze the two most popular ones.
The Martingale Strategy
The method is very simple – a certain amount of bets is assigned, about 3-5% of the total bank. When winning it is put again, when losing the amount is doubled. When losing again, the player needs to double the bet again, taking into account all the expenses. The approximate scheme: 1-2-4-8-16-32-64.
Example: you bet 50 dollars. Four watermelons fell out with odds X3, the winning line is 4. Consequently, this game brought: 50 ÷ 5 * 3 * 4 = 120 dollars, or 70 dollarsnet profit. In the next round you can again bet 50 dollars. If the bet lost or three watermelons fell out, which give X1 coefficient and profit is less than the initial bet, it is necessary to play to raise. The next step is to bet 100 dollars. If you fall out the same three watermelons on the fourth line you will get: 100 ÷ 5 * 3 * 4 = 240 dollars. If you subtract from the total prize bet and the previous loss, we get: 240 – 100 – 50 = 90 dollarsnet.
Plus: winnings cover the previous costs and gives a small profit.
Minus: the game requires a solid bank to be able to pass at least 10 steps if necessary.
Parlay Strategy
It works similarly to the Martingale scheme, but with a higher bet when you win. So minimizes the risk of losing the entire bank in a series of unsuccessful games. In order not to get a loss, you can impose a limit on the number of doublings, for example, no more than 3 times. I.e., after increasing the initial winnings by 2-3 times, return to the previous amount.
Example: you put 200 dollars, 3 cherries fell on the third line. The winnings are: 200 ÷ 5 * 2 * 3 = 240 dollars. The following bet – 240 * 2 = 480 dollars. At the third win – 960 dollars. If defeated, you should return to the original amount.
Pros: on a long distance you can get a solid profit.
Minus: the slots do not always manage to knock out a winning streak.
Pros:
- Jackpot (5 identical elements in a line) increases the odds of increasing the bet to 20;
- The presence of the option “Autoplay”;
- The winning combination of 3 to 5 characters;
- The standard line coefficient of 1 to 5.
Minuses
- none.
