About Bookie of Odds Slot

Microgaming has partnered with Triple Edge Studios to give us a horse racing online slot in the Bookie of Odds. This is a simple yet volatile creation played on 5 reels and 10 pay lines. With only two main features, Bookie of Odds may not be, so much, out to entertain. So what are you going to focus on playing this slot?

Well, to start with there is a re-spin feature that gives you unlimited opportunities to go looking for what is missing of your current combination to complete a winning combination. This is a paid feature, so you’re going to dig deeper to benefit from it. The free spin round will provide you with up to 25 free spins plus juicy multipliers to spice things up. You’ll also benefit from the expanding symbol feature during this round. Everything here is designed to get you closer to some impressive payouts.

Find details about the priced re-spin feature and the free spins feature in our full Bookie of Odds slot review below.

Game Symbols

The deep green reels feature standard playing card symbols A, K, Q, J, and 10 royals. With payouts being far from attractive, this isn’t a bunch you’ll be glad to find. They’ll, however, occur frequently in winning combos to compensate for their low pay. High-value symbols include the horse, red, blue, and purple jockeys, a bookie (the tic-tac man), and the book which serves both as the game’s wild symbol and the scatter.

Gameplay

Bookie of Odds action occurs on a 5reels and 10 pay lines structure. The line bet varies from $0.01 minimum to a maximum of $2.50. This means you can bet from as little as $0.10 per spin and up to $25 for high rollers.

Call it a win every time you land at least 3 matching symbols on the reels. The size of your final payout will be determined by your coin size and the value of those symbols completing your winning combination as listed in the paytable.

There are rewards as huge as 5000x your stake, achievable on a single spin. The best winning combination is a 5 of a kind match of bookie symbols which pays 500 times your stake.

The slot’s volatility is high so expect a sizeable amount of dry spins before you can hit your next win. Big wins will eventually come if you count on your patience and some level of good bankroll management. The game’s RTP stands at 96.31%.

The Respin Feature

With this feature, you’ll be trying to reach out for the missing symbols to complete winning combinations after a normal spin. Find the respin button at the bottom of each reel and click on the reel you want to spin again after the concluding round. Since the feature is not linked on your initial wager, you will have to activate it at a cost. The price of a respin increases if what you’re looking for is a high-value symbol with bigger potential payouts. You can do this as many times as you can afford after every spin.

The Free Spins Bonus

Land at least 3 horse racing book symbols to activate up to 25 free spins. There are 10 free spins for 3 book scatters, 12 for 4 book scatters and 25 for 5. 3, 4 or 5 of these symbols will also return 2, 20 or 200 times the size of your stake. Also playing the role of a wild symbol, the horse racing book will substitute for other regular symbols on the reels to give you more winning combinations. The free spins round can be retriggered again and again so you can land unlimited counts of free spins.

Once in the free spins round, one symbol (not the wild) will be randomly selected to expand and cover the entire reel. Get this symbol on various reels, and you’re in for a royal treat.

Conclusion

Basic as it gets, this is a high volatility slot that comes with a potential for handy boosts on your bankroll. Up to 5000x possible win on each spin can be somewhat enticing. Bookie of Odds may not be a pure thoroughbred but remains as playable as any other decent offering with the equine theme and volatile action.

We’ve seen how the free spins round is key to great returns in this slot. In fact, it’s the only chance-based feature that Bookie of Odds provides. The fact that you can retrigger free games repeatedly is an aspect you can count on. We also find multipliers insanely generous should you land up to 5 book scatters. The expanding symbol ends a list of arguments that back the playability of this slot.
