In the United States, the NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournaments are called March Madness. However, this year’s March Madness was held on BitStarz’s reels rather than in U.S. courts.
If you’ve spent any time looking at BitStarz’s big win ticker over the past couple of months, you’ve probably seen one name pop up over and over again. In March alone, this player (let’s call him Mr. Committed) had a total of 29 big wins, totaling $3,657,506.16. It’s a huge amount that leaves many players wondering how this one player got so lucky. Here’s the scoop.
It starts with one big win
Committed’s streak of 29 big March wins began on March 1 with a win of $98,033.12. It’s his winning streak at his favorite slot, Gorilla Mayhem. To be fair, I’m not sure if that’s his favorite game. What we do know is that most of his big wins have come from this Pragmatic Play slot. However, he also had big wins in Sugar Rush and 5 Lions Megaways.

While the $98,033.12 win amount may seem impressive, looking at the multiplier gives a better idea of why the player was “so lucky.” The win came at a multiplier of 18x. So, while the amount may seem impressive, it is relatively small compared to the size of the bet.
During his 29 big wins, Mr. Committed’s multiplier never exceeded 59x the bet, and most major multipliers were much lower than that. But that doesn’t take anything away from a truly epic streak that is unlikely to be matched any time soon. $3.65 million in 30 days is a huge result.
But if you were to pick a true March Madness outcome, another outcome would come to mind. On March 29th, one lucky player scored an absolutely monster multiplier on Gamzix’s Book of Symbols. The 90,238x multiplier turned a simple $0.10 bet into a $9,128.89 win. Talk about return on investment!

A golden gorilla head symbol may appear during the base game and free spins rounds. This symbol replaces the standard gorilla head symbol to complete or strengthen winning combinations. Additionally, the number of heads shown on the golden gorilla head symbol indicates the size of the multiplier you will receive. Three heads result in a 3x win multiplier. The slot offers a free spins round that is triggered by 3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols giving 10, 15 and 20 free spins respectively.
If you don’t want to unlock free spins rounds the traditional way, you can opt to purchase rounds.
