My online slots videos (plus UK AWPs)

[ChopleyIOM]

Hopefully there's no problem with me starting this thread, if there is I'm sure I'll be told!

Please note this is a personal channel and is in no way a commercial venture for me, so I'm not making any money at it (quite the opposite in fact!), there's no affiliation going on or anything like that. It's simply a case of me enjoying slotting (both online slots and UK AWPs down the local pubs), and I've enjoyed watching other people's escapades on their own YouTube channels, so I figured I'd just start pointing my phone at my playing adventures, grab some videos, and upload them to my own channel.

Somewhere along the line I started to add an increasingly jabbering commentary as well.

In the last few weeks I've been using Sony Vegas Movie Studio 11 to properly compile multiple clips of a single slot into a full sort of 'session review'. For the first three weeks it was 3Dice (Medieval Moolah was Week 1, Ching Ching was Week 2 and Fortune Falls was Week 3), for this weekend I've done Hitman (MG).

My intention is, where time and spare cash permits, to get one slot done per week, edit all the footage together, and upload it to the channel.

Please be aware that my language does sometimes enter the realms of the profane, so probably NSFW and/or when delicate ears are around.

The latest additions are the Hitman video and also the subsequent MG wagering hell that I've seen once too many times for comfort now! :icon_evil

Another great vid Chopley - keep em coming

Couple of things:

Boogie Monsters is 13 Spins @ x5 not x3, so perhaps more high variance than you thought for grinding out wagering?

Just IMO some of the better slots for grinding wagering are the twister/ho ho ho games which are very low varience, along with chucking in a bit of the 5 line slot The High Life which has served me well for wagering before.

Look forward to next weeks installment!

Well it certainly changes the maximum possible win in free spins, although considering I don't think I've ever had a good 5OAK in free spins in years of playing that slot it's more theoretical than anything else

TBH I can't help but think that you get to a point with an MG WR where it doesn't matter what the hell you play, and a decent hit of any description just becomes impossible to find.

My modus operandi with an MG WR is high variance slots early on, hope for a decent hit or two, and then try to grind it out on safer low variance slots when the inevitable feral stretch starts. Even then I'm regularly taken aback by just how nasty the whole casino turns once the home stretch is reached.

I'm half inclined to start recording the sessions in full and doing some proper statistical analysis, but then it stops being a recreational activity!

I actually got the 3 stacked wilds on free spins the first time I ever played (s)Hitman, 90p a spin and it paid 232 pounds something, if I remember rightly. Kudos for getting the 225, about 700-1....

The win in that video is the first big raise I've had on Hitman in over four years.

Right when I started playing I had two wins of around £500 from a 90p stake, both off the assassination bonus round.

From then until the other night, literally nothing even close - that's a dry spell!

 

[dunover]

Indeed a good result 500 off a 90p stake is rare - if you want to make a soporific video to help us get to sleep after a good session, post one on Cashapillar

Hi ChopleyIOM:

I had a chance to look at a few of your videos (I've done a few myself). I just wanted to publicly complement you on your insightful narration of the videos. You are very knowledgable about the games ... do a nice job with the editting, and give a great idea about what the individuals games are like. I agree with a lot of your opinion of the games.

I hope you keep posting. I'll keep checking back from time-to-time. All of my experience is on land-based casinos, but I do have a special interest in the JACKPOTPARTY.COM site, as I moderate the Player's Life website (hosted by WMS Gaming). However, I am a player, and a fan of anything involving slot machines.

Bruce Lee @ Jackpot Party this week.

May be of interest to folks who can't play there as they're UK only. They run WMS slots which I believe are the same/similar to slots that are run at B&M casinos in the states.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

AWPs rule OK

After a pretty poor run at online casinos of late, (even as a low-roller, a bad streak can hurt a bit), it was time to get out to the local pubs and hit those good old compensated UK AWPs.

It's nice to take on gambling when you know for a fact you can win

If you have some volume going on, there's some nice trance music too!

Reviewing Rival

Footage here is a couple of weeks old so I've got a lot more experience with Rival in the interim, these are my impressions from my first couple of sessions playing their slots, so forgive me if I sound like an idiot half the time because it was literally the first time I'd ever played their slots.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

The facts of the matter:

Casino - Tropica Casino
Software - Rival
Deposit - £100
Bonus - 1777% to a maximum of £1777
Bankroll - £1877
Wagering Requirement - 65xD+B (£122,005)
Max Cashout - 0.5x Bonus (£888)

You join the 'action' as £70,000 has already been wagered with my bankroll above £2000, which is why I decided to start filming, as it was entering the realms of the achievable.

Only another £52,000 to go......

Why don't you just install screen recording tool instead of filming your screen with camera?

Great videos anyway

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Why don't you just install screen recording tool instead of filming your screen with camera?

A few reasons

1) I play on several different PCs, there's a laptop down in the kitchen (this has a 23 inch TFT sat on top of it and external speakers connected to it, so it may not be apparent footage from this location is from a laptop), my main gaming PC (this is where most of the footage comes from, the footage on the big DELL monitor), the media centre PC on the 40 inch telly (I use this when I want big screen and 5:1 sound slotting ), and a laptop up in the bedroom (reserve location not used very often).

It'd be a real hassle to have the software installed on every single PC, and to collect all the footage together. As it is now I can just take my camera with me to each location, so all the footage is on one device and thus easily transferable.

2) I like to 'use' the camera sometimes, to show my surroundings, or 'emote' with it, do annoying extreme zooms or long shots and stuff like that. None of that would be possible with a screen recording tool. Using a camera feels far more natural than just harvesting footage from a screen recording tool.

3) I like to do the commentary as I'm recording, filming what's happening on screen with a camera and commenting as it happens works best for me. I don't think that could be recreated well with screen recording software.

4) I used to work as an Online VT Editor, so I enjoy the process of editing everything together to get the final video.

Great videos anyway

Thanks

 

[Balthazar]

I wanted to let you know, sir, that I love your videos (especially the long ones) and you're the reason why I found this site (you mentionned it in one of your recent videos).

 

[ChopleyIOM]

This will be the last one for a while, gonna take a bit of an online slotting holiday

I actually quite liked a bit of the old Special K back in the day, just not when I wasn't expecting it

I thought I was buying disco biscuits, as per the commentary (This was back in 1992 remember )

It doesn't help when you consume three of what you think are disco biscuits, only to find you've eaten three portions of Special K that you weren't expecting

A free night out at the pub thanks to the trusty old AWPs.

The first machine in this video, DEAD MAN'S TREASURE has two true skill features, both of which can pay the £70 jackpot.

Here you see it going on a £140 mega streak, and it had what are known as 'afters' in it to make a total bank of nearly £180.

Net Entertainment entertains me on the net

Net Ent slots get the proper channel treatment for the first time, played here at the Redbet casino.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

REDBET + NETENT again

Latest addition to the channel, more NetEnt play at Redbet

 

[rainmaker]

.

Ah...new NetEnt video ChopleyIOM! Looking forward to watch it a bit later tonight

 

[Balthazar]

Good video as always. Would be fun to watch you play some RTG slots one day. We don't see too many of these on Youtube.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

The problem I have with RTG is the lack of RTP information.

NetEnt slots generally kick out 96-98% RTP and you can see what you're playing on a game-by-game basis.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

More Netent slotting at Redbet

Latest video now up, Netent slots at the Redbet casino, lots of play of the new 'Evolution' slot as well as other stuff.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Netent Progressive slotting at Redbet

Four progressives at once, how do you think this one will end up?........

 

[rainmaker]

.

Four progressive at once

And is that Super Lucky Frog...the game with a RTP of 93%

Should be interesting! Thanks for sharing

Super Lucky Frog may have a low RTP% but as previously mentioned on the forum. The local jackpot at Redbet is VERY high now, so it is worth trying a few spins on it.

 

[Balthazar]

Man those looked like boring a$$ progressives. I don't mind progressive slots as long as they are fun to play AND they have big hits potential in the base game/bonus round. That's why I always liked the old LOTR and now the new TDK MG's slot. While the RTP is reduced because of the progressive, you still have a chance to win "big" outside of that nearly impossible progressive win.

Cool video, though! I don't know why you dropped Reel Steal since it looked like it was the "hottest" slot of your session (even though there's no such thing as "hot" or "cold" slot). I'm still not sold on Evolution, I think they missed the boat by not allowing the bonus to retrigger during the free spins.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

RTG Session

My first brush with RTG slots.....

 

[Redbet-Andy]

Nice video.
Bloody Hell though - 300 spins at 5x!

My first brush with RTG slots.....

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Part 2 of my Slotocash/RTG experience

 

[aceking123]

hi choppers lmao thankyou you made my day by wathcing that cheers )

 

[Balthazar]

That one was basically a "slot suicide"

 

[ChopleyIOM]

That one was basically a "slot suicide"

Yeah I was well and truly fed up with the whole affair by then, I think it's safe to say that me and RTG will be having nothing to do with each other from now until the end of time

 

[Sovietsky]

I really enjoy your videos and I look forward to new ones!

 

[ChopleyIOM]

As long as a few folks enjoy watching them I'm happy to carry on doing them

TBH I had no idea if anyone would want to watch them when I first started uploading the long edited together videos as opposed to just uploading short clips from my mobile, but they seem to have settled down to a few hundred unique views per video and the comments are generally positive. (The most popular one to date is 'A Tale Of Two Slotties' where I beat the 1777% bonus at Tropica, and even that hasn't quite managed 1000 unique views.)

At the end of the day I enjoy online slotting, I enjoy doing the commentaries, and the video editing side of things is a nice little hobby for me - (I was an Online VT Editor for a few years in the mid to late 90s when digital editing suites were just getting off the ground, my home PC is massively more powerful than a suite that cost north of £50K back in about 1997!) - so for as long as I'm playing online slots I see no reason not to keep putting the videos together.

Thanks for the comments, they are always appreciated

 

[Tirilej]

I must say I appreciate them for several reasons.

It's a good way of learning to understand the language (gambling-language). No one is translating anything for me
I like your sence of humour, but most of all it's great to see how someone else is thinking and reacting when they play.
Of course you do and say some for us, the audience, but it's still you

Keep doing them please

 

[LaHutti]

hahahaa Chopley ...In that last video, you sounded JUST like I feel, if I accidently enter an RTG casino. Another awesome video, and welcome to the club of no more RTG.
Let's appreciate the fact, that we're free to play where ever we want

 

[Dipity]

I like watching your videos while doing other stuff on my main screen, like browsing reddit or whatever.

Out of interest, do you actually use your main rig for anything else? Seems with that kind of power machine you could be a gamer (or am I just wishfully hoping someone else is as sad as me?)

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Yes I'm a very keen PC gamer

Current games of choice are Battlefield 3 (me and a few mates play this every week on a Friday/Saturday night, we have our own Teamspeak server), XCom Enemy Unknown (the new release remake of the original), DiRT2/3 (we play this at the weekend when we're a bit too drunk to play BF3 properly ), and whatever else takes my fancy really. (Deus Ex Human Revolution I played through last year, Max Payne 3 I loved to pieces, and I was an avid WoW player for the best part of four years but quit before MoP came out.)

PC has been my primary gaming platform since about 1996, (prior to that I was a dedicated Amiga guy ), and whilst I have always kept my hand in with the consoles, PC gaming is always top of the list.

My PC isn't any kind of psycho beast, but nothing really stretches it at the moment. Core i7-920 oc/ed to 3.4GHz, 12GB RAM, 2GB GTX670, 128GB SSD, Auzentech X-Fi Prelude soundcard etc. It can chuck BF3 around totally ULTRAed out at 2560x1440 so I see no reason to upgrade it at the moment.

This is just my Steam Game Library, I have boxes full of older PC games downstairs, as well as computers going back as far as the Commodore 64 and consoles as far back as the SNES and Megadrive (and I've had just about everything inbetween and it's all still boxed up downstairs, I just can't bring myself to chuck any of it away!).

My 360 is my only real 'active' console (in that it's connected up to my main screen and available for use), but I do have a chipped XBox under the big telly with MAMEOX on the hard drive, I have a good friend (literally known him since we were both 4 years old) who comes over to visit every year, and we fire up old classics like Hyper Sports, Track & Field and Football Champ

EDIT - Oops I messed up the screengrabs below so a couple of lines are duplicated, there are far too many to fit on a single screen

 

[Balthazar]

I must say I appreciate them for several reasons.

Other than entertainment, I really learn from his videos. For example, in his last 2 videos, I learned that it doesn't make sense to play RTG's with big WR due to the high variance and capped wins. TBH, I felt bad at first since I'm one of the persons that suggested RTG earlier in the thread.

Yes I'm a very keen PC gamer

I can only imagine the kind of language that you use while playing those games when the camera is away

 

[Dipity]

Sweet Chopley!

I'm much like you, I started on the c64, then upgraded to an Amiga600, which I have very fond memories of. Along the way I had a master system and megadrive, then finally found PC gaming.

My machine isn't quite as beefy as yours, but it has recently undergone a few upgrades - 128gb ssd with 2tb sata, i7 3770k not overclocked, sapphire oc'd 7850 and a mere 8gb of ram - which I need to upgrade soon

I use Steam exclusively for my gaming, I have an Xbox360 too, but it rarely sees any play, and my son is the only one that ever uses the Wii

I've got over 200 odd games on Steam, but only Dota 2 and Team Fortress 2 see any play, although I do need to download Natural Selection 2 at some point!
