SafeCracker

The SafeCracker slots game can be found at Playtech casinos. Playtech do not publish the house edge of their games, however several established Playtech casinos have started releasing this information and on the CasinoMeister forum, the Boyle Casino Manager confirmed that Playtech slots games are not configurable at the operators end. As such, it is possible to identify that the house edge of SafeCracker is 6.09% if you play one or two coins and 4.09% if you play three coins and should be valid at all Playtech casinos.

Poster 'thelawnet' from the CasinoMeister and Wizard of Vegas message boards has looked at these figures and believes there to be an error. By their calculations given the seed level (6000 coins) and contribution rate (3%) the figures should be 6.09% for 1 and 2 coins and for 3 coins when the Jackpot has just been reset. On average across all values of Jackpot playing 3 coins should result in a house edge of 3.09%, however this value is entirely dependent on the size of the Jackpot. If you play when the Jackpot's recently been won the house edge is likely to be a lot higher and if you play when the Jackpot is larger than average it is possible that the house edge will be a lot less that 3.09%.
