Has anyone played this one? My local does not have it but I recently saw a youtube video where someone won over 10k on it on what looks like minimum bet - so it looks hyper volatile!

They had a bank at the Orleans but took them out after a short stay. I heard they were not played enough. I think minimum bet was 80 cents.

thanks for the info, it must just be super volatile to the point where you either get a handpay or lose lose lose!

I played it just recently on a small investment. I didn't like it for a few reasons. First and most importantly, the chairs were not adjustable. I'm too tall to be cramped. 2/3 people including me also felt the chairs were not comfortable, based on cushioning and fabric. Next, almost every win(over 12x) or bonus, was anticipatory, it clued you something was coming. I did have one bonus, which was watching the reels stop without the anticipation.

The audition bonus spins was my first bonus, lucked out, reel 3,4,5 had sticky wilds and two retriggers, won $72 on $.75. Next audition bonus, less than $5. Won the Rita progressive for $62, it reset to $40. Should have quit there, but wanted to see if it bonuses without the anticipation, was able to get one this way, hit the Blake progressive for $17, which reset to $10. I then quit.

I saw no reason for a curved screen, but it had one. I didn't like the music played, it played a lot of country, which I don't like, and when it didn't, the music sounded cheap.

After a 20 minutes, went back and both progressives were higher than when I had hit them. It has a $6 max and I did see someone playing max. Wrong! Each machine is stand-alone, whoops.

I laughed hearing Ricky Martin sing La Vida Loca. Now he's known as gay, the lyrics have new meaning when he says she "makes you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain", poor guy was raped by her.😁

I did play it again but stopped fast because if there are playable numbers, these aren't for sure. Progressive values do increase the base with increased bets by a linear amount.

I didn't like this game either. My biggest win was like $8 on a
.75. cent win. Disgusting game. Especially when I won $150 and $250 on a .75 bet on another game.

do not watch the show. For those that expect something compelling besides that, it is just a slot machine. There is a design problem with the chair, but also the whale spends twice for the most common bonuses, you forgot to look up the second time. That is a little irritating, Plus when you win the progressives, that's it unlike other wheel games. I won't play it because it's almost always negative expectation, there are other ways to spend money.

I watch the show and they did a terrible job with the machine from even a show standpoint. They put two people on the machine who have never appeared in the US version of the show. Bonuses are tough to hit and more of the that not pay just a few bucks. I have tried to like it playing slots with my wife at times and neither of us like it

What the H-E double hockey sticks is this??

What does "known as gay" mean?

"raped by her"???????? and "laughing" in the same paragraph just don't belong.

He was in the closet, now he is not, he is known as gay. It's funny because he was not trying to be known as gay then, the lyrics can be thought of differently now there is a new context. It's shorthand language not to be taken literally. I'm not obedient to your tastes, but I do get pleasure from your pain you cause yourself over nothing. I'm a bigot, not really. I'm more like a blasphemist.
Quote: lyrics

Livin' la Vida Loca
Ricky Martin
She's into superstitions
Black cats and voodoo dolls
I feel a premonition
That girl's gonna make me fall
She's into new sensation
New kicks in the candlelight
She's got a new addiction
For every day and night
She'll make you take your
Clothes off and go dancing in the rain

She'll make you live her crazy life
But she'll take away your pain
Like a bullet to your brain
Upside inside out
She's livin' la vida loca
She'll push and pull you down
Livin' la vida loca
Her lips are devil red
And her skin's the color of mocha
She will wear you out
Livin' la vida loca
She's livin la vida loca
Woke up in New York City
In a funky cheap hotel
She took my heart
And she took my money
She must've slipped me a sleepin' pill
She never drinks the water
And makes you order
French champagne…


This is my image of the song in the new context. NSFW.

I had an inkling that Ricky was gay even circa 2000 because he was quoted as saying something about the gay rumors like,"My sexuality is no one's business but my own." I thought,"I doubt a Straight person would say that. A Straight person would have just said,"I'm Straight."

By the way, the JPS the game displays are for max bet when nobody is playing it, even if it appears last better was playing less. Don't be fooled.

Just noticed these machines are littered all over Delaware. Dover Downs and Harrington both have several. One of the YouTube $13K handpays at MGM National Harbor in Maryland where they have a bank of about six of these machines. I've never played it, as my luck is usually terrible on games where the theme is a licensed show. On those types, rarely I'll toss $50-60 in full max bet mode, and only if I'm already way ahead before I start.

Fascinating. My wife and I enjoy watching The Voice but it is a bizarre glimpse into multi-platform marketing to see Adam Levine and Blake Shelton on the reels of a slot machine.

No Kelly Clarkson, or Gloria Estefan or Alicia Keyes or Jennifer Hudson though.

Instead we have Rita Ora who is sometimes a judge from Britains Got Talent? And Ricky Martin? I wonder why Ricky Martin? Just because of that damn song, Livin' La Vida Loca?
So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

Ricky Martin was a judge on the Australian version, and Rita Ora a judge on the UK Voice.
