Move Over Aristocrat 50 Lions Microgaming Cashapillar 100 Pay Lines Slot is Here

The latest Microgaming online slot machine Cashapillar was released in May 2008. It surpasses even the monster 50 lions pay-out lines aussie pokie by 50 lines. Cashapillar has 100 pay-out lines and with its multi stacked wild featured and bonus round is sure to find many online pokie players trying this new Microgaming slot out in the weeks of May 2008.

Having played Cashapillar myself within hours of its online release, I must say I'm not overly impressed. To play all 100 pay lines will cost you a minimum bet of $1; that's 1 cent a line on all 100 active pay lines. My biggest concern is this online pokie machine can suck your bankroll in no time if you don't acquire a decent win. Because each pay line is only 1 cent at a $1 bet, it's not unusual to only get wins that amount to 20 cents or less. So each spin if your not losing your entire $1 bet your losing 80% of it or more.

The stacked wild feature is about the only way your going to have a decent win on Cashapillar.

Although the new Microgaming slot boasts a win up to 2,000,000 coins, that's at $20 a spin and I'd assume in the bonus round and by having all the wilds drop on all 100 pay lines.

Although I dropped $50 playing Cashapillar I did not get the bonus round once. In fact I these win I achieved was $12.50 . In my opinion spreading that win over 100 lines at $1 a spin to receive only $12.50 is not going to impress too many slots players. Although Cashapillar is a first for Microgaming, I think they could have done a lot better, or at least made a online pokie machine that was a little kinder to online slots players.

The closest aussie pokie that comes to mind is the Aristocrat pokie 50 Lions.
Although not one of my favourite pokies, it's possible to get a decent pay out even if your only betting 1cent or 2 cents a line.

Maybe Microgaming should go back to its bonus slots drawing board and design another super line slot fashioned on the 50 Lions pokie machine. Because although Cashapillar is a 100 line bonus slot it really doesn't offer any value to a slots player.

Winning at the Pokies

If you must play at an aussie pokie venue then you need to maximise your winning chances. To do this there are a few simple pointers that will probably increase your chances of winning at the pokies.

Don't keep feeding a pokie game in the hope it will start to run hot. If it's cold then it will probably stay cold. If you you bet $1 a spin don't drop any more than $20 - $30 through a pokie machine if it is not paying. Also don't get suckered by lots of small wins either.

Depending on your normal bet size, drop $20 through the pokie and then either drop your bet or raise your bet and spend $10, then return to your normal betting. Keep following this method. If after 5 cycles the pokie machine goes cold move to another machine.

However the best way to really increase you pokies pay-outs is to use the gamble feature. I'd only use this option on smaller wins say $20 or less. You maybe feel comfortable with a less amount of a higher amount. That call is up to you.

When using the gamble feature of an aussie pokies machine keep in mind that the gamble goes in sequences, it's not as random as you may believe. Once you figure out the sequence you can generally win about 70% to 80% of the gamble wins you activate.

Lastly if you have a decent win or on the other hand have a shocker and end up winning back your loses of the day, do not be moron and pump it all back into the pokie machine. Collect your winnings and go home.

Aussie Pokies Pay Back Return Percentages

There seems to be a misconception among some people that think because a pokie machine has say a 78% pay back return that it will return 78 cents for every dollar put through the pokie. Well that's just not right. The pay back percentage return on an aussie pokie is derived from two sets of data.

The data used to work out the percentage return of a pokie machine is as follows:

The total amount of cash put through a pokie as apposed to the amount of cash paid out. When I speak of total amounts I mean everything that is won, played, lost or money placed into each pokie machine.

To determine a pay-back percentage for an aussie pokie over a 24 hour period would deliver a false figure. So pokies normally have their pay-back percentages evaluated over a longer period of time. In so far as online pokies their pay-back return percentages are audited on a monthly basis. Least in the case of trustworthy online casino venues.

For now I thought it best to give a simple explanation of how an aussie pokie has its pay-back percentage figured out. I'll leave this by saying that just because a pokie machine may have an X% payout return, this does not mean that for each dollar placed through that pokie the play will receive X amount of dollars returned.
