About this board
This is the full board: every row count from 8 to 16 and all three risk tables. The paytables are the ones used by Stake Originals Plinko and mirrored by Shuffle, Rainbet, Roobet and the other brands in our bonus table; every configuration returns between 98.9% and 99.2% to player. Each peg is a true 50/50, so the ball's final bucket follows a binomial distribution – which is exactly why the centre is common and the corners are rare.
Use it to feel the variance before you bet real money. Switch to 16 rows high risk and watch how many 0.2× results you absorb between hits; switch to 8 rows low risk and notice how little the balance moves either way. The Live RTP figure converges on the theoretical number as your drop count grows – at 1,000 drops it will usually sit within a couple of points of 99%, at 10,000 within a fraction.
How to use the simulator
- Set a bet. Type any amount from $0.10 to $1,000 or use the quick buttons. The bet is deducted when the ball leaves the top.
- Choose rows and risk. Any row count from 8 to 16 and any of the three risk tables. The buckets redraw instantly.
- Drop. Click the board, press Drop or hit the space bar. Balls can overlap – drop as fast as you like.
- Watch the stats. Live RTP is total returned ÷ total wagered. Net is your profit or loss since the last reset.
- Reset whenever the balance runs low. Nothing is recorded anywhere except your own browser.
What the bucket colours mean
Pink buckets pay 10× or more, amber pay 2× to 9×, lime pay 1× to 1.9× and the grey-violet centre pays less than your stake. On this configuration 45.4% of drops land in a lime, amber or pink bucket.
