Roshtein Won $2 Million Playing Plinko! Should You Try Your Luck on Plinko Too? - ReelNews by GamblersArea

When thinking of casino games and gambling, most people only imagine cards, slots, and roulettes, but there actually are many more crazy fun games that you can gamble on within online casinos. One of them is Plinko, a game that offers a whole lot of fun while being as simple as possible.

Although known for his superb slot-playing skills, casino streamer Roshtein wasn’t immune to the simple but highly rewarding Plinko game. He started including it into his streams on Twitch and soon both he and his Troops were fans of the game. 

Plinko has shown its power more than once during Roshtein’s streams, bringing him large and memorable wins. While playing this game in Stake online casino with a $2,002 bet size, one of the balls landed on a 1,000x multiplier, boosting Rosh’s balance by stunning $2 million instantly. 

If you’re unfamiliar with the game of Plinko, let’s see what it’s all about and is it worth betting on.

Plinko history begins way back when it was first introduced on the show 'The Price Is Right' in 1983, which itself was inspired by pachinko machines in Japan. The top Plinko prize of $25,000 was the largest offer at the time. 

Overall, it’s an iconic game whose concept remains relatively unchanged throughout the years. You roll a ball down a board full of pins, which alter its trajectory. Down below, you have a range of prizes with the lowest in the middle and the highest on 2 outermost edges. Whichever prize the ball lands on is the prize you'll get.

Plinko is a great alternative to slots since it’s not complicated and is a great way to relax and entertain yourself. Watching the ball changing direction at every step is thrilling and it's possible to land very big wins in one game. Having an attractive max payout, Plinko still manages to appeal to casual, low-budget players because the bet size can be as low as $0.1.

Even though Plinko is such a simple game, it still has some interesting features that you should be aware of.

The first step is to adjust your bet size and after that, you should decide how many lines of pins you want and adjust the risk level at low, medium, or high. However, the more lines there are, the harder for the ball to reach the outer part of the board, which means it's harder to win. But to make up for this, the payout will be much higher if you do win. 

Rewards in online Plinko games are represented as multipliers so you need to get a number higher than 1 to make a profit. The prizes in the middle are usually below 1. However, high risk also makes the low prizes much lower, sometimes down to 0.

There isn't necessarily the best way to approach the line number and risk level. It depends on whether you enjoy high volatility or safe, slow games. Experiment with the adjustments to find your favorite settings.

The Autoplay feature in the Plinko game is very unique compared to slots. When using Autoplay, you won't be rolling one ball at a time but multiple balls. For this reason, you have to be a little more careful since every ball is a bet. The Spribe version of the game even lets you choose auto-roll balls of different colors: red, green, yellow, each one representing a different risk level. In the BGaming and Stake’s version, you can set exactly how many balls you like to roll in Autoplay. You can still stop Autoplay at any time by clicking the Stop button.
