Is the Lemon Casino tournament actually worth grinding?
Called it bait before even reading the replies lol. My gut says most of these leaderboard grinds end up paying like 20 people and the rest of us just feed the reels chasing points. Haven't looked at the actual prize split yet, that's why I'm asking. Did anyone here actually finish high enough on that Lemon tournament to get something back? Curious if the wagering on any spin prizes eats the whole win anyway.
Hit big last night on my all-time favourite slot so I'm feeling brave, gonna toss a deposit in if someone tells me the points system isn't rigged toward high rollers 🔥💰 ah well, probably gonna do it regardless, always action here.

✓Cash24, check the prize split before you commit a cent, that's the whole game with these leaderboard things. If it pays 20 deep I skip it, but if the top spots are decent and points come from normal spins I'll toss a small C$ deposit at it and grind my usual bet size, no chasing. Cashed a leaderboard bonus in profit once by betting low and finishing mid-pack, so it can work if the wagering isn't savage. Anyone actually seen Lemon's terms on which slots count for points?500x one day, zero the next. Classic.

Prize split's the whole story, WildWin's right. My rule after grinding a few of these is simple, points from regular spins or I don't bother. Chasing a leaderboard with bonus buys is how banks get busted 😄I remember the old slots first-hand.

Good point on bonus buys, that's what scares me off these things 😅 I'm new to wagering so if the points come from regular spins I might toss a small C$ deposit in, otherwise I'll pass. Cheers, that helps!

This is helpful, still learning bonuses so bear with me 😅 When you say points from regular spins, does that mean wagering on any slot counts toward the leaderboard, or only certain games? I don't wanna deposit and then find out my spins don't even count 🙈Learn something new about casinos every day.

Good question Kev, better to ask than find out the hard way 😄 Points from regular spins usually means the money you bet on the featured games in the tournament counts, but each promo picks its own list, so check the terms before you deposit. Sometimes only certain slots count and your usual games give you nothing. I've been through this cycle enough times to know that detail busts more grinds than bad luck does.Been grinding longer than some have played.

RobSpins nailed it, checking the featured list first saved me more than once. I chased a leaderboard grind earlier this year and only realised halfway through my session that maybe a third of the slots I was spinning actually counted for points. Finished mid-table, bankroll took the hit for nothing 😭 My rule now for any tournament, Lemon included: read the terms before the deposit, see if points come from regular spins or if bonus buys are excluded, and set a hard stop on what I'm willing to burn chasing the top spots. If the prize structure only really pays the top handful, I treat it like a cheap lottery ticket at best. Small C$ deposit, cap the losses, cash out anything decent if I land a hit along the way 🎰500x one day, zero the next. Classic.

Been burned by that exact thing 😅 deposited C$ once and my favourite slot wasn't even on the featured list. Now I check the terms before anything else, thanks LuckyStreakLuck 🙏Asking dumb bonus questions — that's the job.
-
Worst part is when the featured list changes mid-tournament and the points you already banked stop counting on the new games 😭 did a Lemon grind where I had to basically re-read the terms after a leaderboard jump. Check if points are per spin or per C$ wagered too, that alone decides if a small bankroll can even climb.Cashing out in time is half the battle.
-
Honestly if my fave slot is on the featured list I'll grind it, otherwise nah 😅 mid-tournament list swaps are the real killer nglBacking my slot to the last spin.
-
@Gary_Montreal06 same honestly, if my favourite's on that featured list I'm on it every evening no matter what 🔥 last Lemon grind I cleared like C$60 in spins just off one lucky session and I was buzzing 😂 the mid-tournament swap thing is trash tho, they should lock the list once it starts imo 🎰
-
Mid-tournament list swaps should honestly be illegal 😂 that's the casino moving the goalposts after you've already fed them your C$. I once grinded a whole night on a slot that quietly dropped off the featured list halfway, my points just sat there like curtains. Now I screenshot the terms before I start, because trust me, tilt is my second home and I don't need help getting there 🤣Bank memes are therapy too.

Same thing happened to me, grinded a Lemon slot that got yanked off the list at like 2am 😂 my bank left in style that night anyway 🤣Came to hit, stayed to tilt 🍿
