€27,374 Pinball Roulette win at King Solomons Casino

A player at King Solomons Casino has won €27,374 on Pinball Roulette through a series of very lucky bonus win. Mahesan N. from Bahrain joined the online casino back in 2010 and is an avid Arcade Games player with Pinball Roulette being his big favorite.  

 Pinball Roulette is a clever combination of the games of pinball and roulette which have been merged in order to add some excitement to the game. The goal is to predict where the ball will come to rest between the numbers 1 to 36 plus the 0. Unlike a genuine game of roulette however the little white ball is not launched in the roulette wheel but goes through a game of pinball, bouncing this and that way until it lands on the scrolling roulette strip at the bottom of the game screen.
 
At the end of each winning round, where the chosen number has been correctly guessed, the bonus game is launched where it is possible to win up to 10 times the amount of the original wager through a series of multipliers. This is where Mahesan N. found his fortune.
 
On August 22nd, Mahesan N. headed for some fun time with Pinball Roulette and luck being on his side, made correct guesses on most rounds which resulted in him getting access to several bonus rounds in quick succession. The major part of his winnings came from bonus win where he respectively won €3,720, €4,140, €3,285, €2,520 and €1,440. Near the end of his gameplay, Mahesan n. hit his biggest win of all where he scooped a fantastic €7,200 during a bonus session.
 
King Solomons Casino offers a good selection of Arcade Games. Amongst the most popular are several variations of Keno, Hi-Lo, Roulette, Darts, Bingo and games which will have us reminisce about our childhood such as Rock-Paper-Scissors and Heads or Tails.
