Block Bonanza — Advantage Play Guide (when_to_play)
Type of play
- Positive-EV “must-hit” style play based on unusually high block values in the first 3 columns.
- You’re exploiting a temporarily favorable block board, not a progressive or a persistent meter.
How the advantage works (quick)
- Credit-value blocks sit above the reels in a grid; each block corresponds to a reel position below it.
- If you land dollar symbols on reels 1–3 in order (at least one on each of the first three reels), you’re awarded the values of the corresponding blocks.
- The edge comes from only playing when the first three columns contain abnormally large total value.
What to look for (floor checklist)
- Yellow block in columns 1–3
- Automatic play if there’s a yellow block anywhere in the first three columns, except:
- Do NOT play if it’s the smallest yellow block worth ~16.6x bet (that one alone isn’t enough).
