I am confident, that if, in all of those 70,599 spins, you kept the same bet size (e.g. £2 for all), your RTP would be incredibly close to the theoretical RTP of 96%. There will be some sessions (e.g. this one by the look of it!) where of course you blitz the theoretical RTP right out of the window, but it equals out. But the increase in bet sizing throughout your session, in order to achieve a profitable top, is why you have the success that you do!
Don’t want to bore people with this, as I made a lengthy post about it before in another thread a while back. Basically a Martingale-esque strategy on a slot that synergises well with it. As I said before – if there was no max bet, and you had unlimited funds, you could never lose on this slot (same as blackjack, roulette etc. once you adjust your bet sizing to a profit margin). But unfortunately those two things aren’t ever possible, and the bet sizing can become unsustainable, so you have to rely on not getting unlucky, rather than getting lucky.
I’m a bore I know, but this is an important message to all those looking to replicate the Bandit’s success!
