Exactly. For most players, who bet on all four bonuses and at least one number, a 3x coinflip is actually a loss or barely break even.

Does anyone actually have any PROOF that the wheel in base game is manipulated? I think it very unlikely for a couple of reasons: First of all it would be fraud, which would have easily been detected when the game was certified. Secondly there is no need for that as the house edge is massive even without tempering the wheel. Thirdly to reject bets would not make any sense at all. If Evolution can determine where the wheel lands, why should they anger players by rejecting bets? The could bring in bonuses when bets are low to keep up the statistics and low numbers when the highrollers play. Certainly they would not bring up 5000x bonuses in primetime, as it happened not long ago.

Well, the Crazy Time Bonus Wheel is RNG, but the wheel of the basic game is a real one. So Evolution does not know what the next hit will be, unless the wheel is manipulated or the have some sort of advanced software that calculates the strenght of the spin and predicts where it will land. I doubt both, so I think its just a technical problem that unfortunately happened when bonuses came in...
