Best Slots on Mariner

[The Fox]

We are going on a B2B on Mariner next month and it's our first chance to play in this casino year. Any hints on which machines will help me earn points for Prime?

IMHO Dancing drums has the best odds for you to keep your money while earning points. However, I believe any machine you like to play, will be your best bet. I tell people to avoid Huff and Puff like the plague because it has never really been good to me. Yet for some they do well. It is the same for Dragon Link or any machine really, what works for me might not work for you and vice versa.

We have been doing well on the Piggy Burst machines....but they are few and far between and VERY popular so good luck finding one that's available.  We had 2 hand pays on our last cruise (Indy, where there were 3 such machines).  Of course, it's gambling so you can never know for sure, but with Piggy Burst it's a BIT easier to tell when to increase your bet b/c those pigs blow up, turn around and face you and put on their piggy hats JUST before they burst....so if you can find a machine where they pigs are fat, facing you and/or wearing a hat, they're getting ready to pop !

Good luck !

I had to try bursting the Piggies on Enchantment last week after reading this.  Found the fattest swine I could find each time and they never wanted to burst more than an occasional minor for me.  Then my wife walks up and hits bonus after bonus and burst after burst and did a lot better than me with these pork bellied daemons.

I love the Octoberfest (Heidi) machines on Mariner...  drink beers while you play and enjoy the music!

Back from our Mariner cruises, we found the Quick Hits Deluxe on the outside wall and the Double Triple Diamonds in the non-smoking section to be our best bets. No big money, but when they were good they paid and allowed us to play more.

I don't know name of machine but it has prosperity, longevity and jackpot on it.  I have discovered it a a few casinos on land and now looking forward to playing it at sea on my next cruise which is next month on Visions.

I pick random machines most of the time and have had some success. The best gameplan in a casino for me is no gameplan. The big piggies are deceptive as the RNG dictates the pop. Skinny piggy can become fat exploding piggy in a single spin while big fat piggy can happily watch you spin for hours. Good luck

I don't understand why some people can't grasp this concept.  Then again, that's why the machines have all the lights, sounds, and graphics it does, to entice more play time (money insertion) from people who don't grasp this concept.

We just got a big hand pay on Piggy Burst (UT) by watching the piggies get fat, turn and put on their hats, then pump up the bet.  The process isn’t fool-proof but it is helpful.  It’s gambling, so there’s never a guarantee…but it seems to work for us !

Considering there are still people out there that pound on the glass and aggressively tap the screen for luck, the illusion of perceived progression on the piggies, firecrackers, bowls exc is at least something I could understand.

Hello, I'm a beginner and have never played anything like this before. Have experience only with Roleta(gamestyle and strategies from here). Can you please advise me on which of these slots are the best in terms of payouts? I want to play for a longer time and improve my skills. Maybe even win big

I don't play slots (table games exclusively), but there is literally no skill involved with slots.  You have 0 control over the outcome of any spin no matter what you (legally) do.

The only aspect you can control is choosing a machine that has a lower set volatility than others (i.e. more total wins, but win amount is smaller) to increase your chances of playing for a longer time.  Now I don't know which machines those are or how you can differentiate between them, but others on here might be able to help.
