Leaf boosts
Before each spin the RNG can assign a multiplier to one or more leaf segments, drawn from 3x, 4x, 5x, 7x and 10x.
If the wheel stops on your boosted leaf you are paid that multiple of your stake. A 5x boost on a 2.00 bet returns 10.00, which is a 4:1 net win because the stake is not returned on top.
Boosts attach to a specific segment, not to the route. A boosted Leaf 1 segment pays the multiple only if the wheel lands on that exact segment; the other twenty-two Leaf 1 segments still pay 1:1.
Wheel multipliers on fish
Fish segments can be assigned 2x to 10x, and this system behaves completely differently: it does not touch your stake, it multiplies every fish value inside the bonus round.
A 10x on Huge Reds turns the smallest 10x catch into 100x and the largest 500x catch into 5,000x. That is the only route to the advertised ceiling and it needs the multiplier and the top catch in the same round. The arithmetic.
| System | Applies to | Values | Multiplies | Stake |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leaf boost | One leaf segment | 3x, 4x, 5x, 7x, 10x | Your stake | Replaced, not returned |
| Wheel multiplier | A fish segment | 2x to 10x | Every fish in the bonus | Replaced, not returned |
Why timing them is impossible
Multipliers are assigned after the betting window closes. You can see which segments are boosted, but by then no chips can move.
That makes a whole family of advice useless: waiting for a boosted round, raising stakes when a 10x appears, skipping unboosted rounds. None of it exists in the interface. What does exist is choosing your bet route in advance, which is the decision that actually moves your expected cost. Spreads priced by blended RTP.
