The parts that pay: Corrida de Toros

  1. Aristocrat, 2004

    The game is from Aristocrat and was released in 2004. That places it in the era of fixed-line machines, long before megaways grids changed the format.

  2. Twenty-five lines

    A 5x3 grid with 25 paylines means every spin covers all twenty-five combinations. Spins are priced accordingly, so the stake is spread rather than placed on one line.

  3. One cent floor

    The minimum bet is A$0.01, which sets the lowest denomination rather than the cost of a fully covered spin. It lets a bankroll be stretched across more spins if the stake is kept low.

  4. Bullfighting theme

    The theme is Spanish bullfighting, which gives the reels their symbols and colour. Theme is decoration; it has no bearing on the return or the volatility.

Step by step

What happens when you press spin

  1. 01

    Set the stake

    Choose the stake per line before you start, knowing that all 25 lines are priced on each spin. The minimum bet is A$0.01, so the floor is low but the total per spin is not the same as the floor.

  2. 02

    Spin the reels

    A spin places one wager across the grid and the 25 paylines at once. There is no decision to make mid-spin; the result is settled when the reels stop.

  3. 03

    Read the lines

    Any payouts come from matching symbols along the paylines. The medium volatility label describes how often those matches land and how much they tend to be worth.

  4. 04

    Watch the bankroll

    The number of spins remaining is the bankroll divided by the stake per spin. Medium volatility means the count will not fall in a straight line.

The specification plate, read plainly

The plate on this page carries the published figures: medium volatility, a 5x3 grid, 25 paylines, a minimum bet of A$0.01, Aristocrat as the provider, and a release year of 2004. The return in venues is listed as 87.5%. That is the whole of it. There is no jackpot and no figure for a maximum win, so this page does not offer one.

Medium volatility is a label for how the payouts are spread, not a promise about any given session. Twenty-five lines on a 5x3 grid means each spin prices twenty-five ways to line symbols up, and the stake is divided across them. A minimum bet of A$0.01 tells you the floor on a single line or credit, not what a full spin will cost once every line is covered.

What the 87.5% actually describes

The 87.5% figure is a long-run average taken across a very large number of spins. It describes how much of the money wagered is returned to players as a group over that span, with the remainder kept by the operator. It is not a rate you can expect on your own bankroll tonight, this week, or in any session you choose to sit through.

A lower return figure does not mean shorter losing runs; the two are separate measurements. It does mean the average drag on turnover is larger, so the same number of spins at the same stakes will tend to cost more over time. Over a single session, the distribution of results matters far more than the average.

Medium volatility and the bankroll

Medium volatility sits between the steady, frequent, small-payout profile and the sparse, large-payout profile. In practice that usually means some dry stretches and some sizeable hits, with neither extreme dominating. The bankroll still has to survive the dry stretches, because the hits arrive on the game's schedule and not yours.

With a set stake per spin and a set bankroll, the number of spins you can afford is arithmetic: divide the bankroll by the stake. Volatility does not change that arithmetic, but it does change what happens inside it. A short bankroll against a medium-volatility game can be gone before the part of the distribution that pays arrives.

FAQ

Still unsure? Start here

What is the RTP of Corrida de Toros?

The published return for venues is 87.5%. That is a long-run average across a very large number of spins, not a figure you can expect from a single session.

Is Corrida de Toros high or low volatility?

It is listed as medium volatility, which sits between frequent small payouts and rare large ones. For a bankroll, that means the swings are neither the gentlest nor the harshest available.

How many paylines does this pokie have?

The grid is 5x3 with 25 paylines. Each spin prices all twenty-five ways to line symbols up, so the cost per spin is the stake multiplied across them.

Does Corrida de Toros have a jackpot?

No. The published specification lists no jackpot, and no maximum win figure is given. Any prize therefore comes from the line payouts on the reels.
