Free Plinko: drop the ball, watch it bounce

Pick a risk level, drop a ball through twelve rows of pegs and see where it lands. The middle pays little, the edges pay big, and every bounce is a coin flip.

Risk levels

How the ball falls

At each of the 12 rows the ball goes left or right with equal chance, so most balls land near the middle. Landing in an outer slot takes twelve bounces the same way: on high risk one of the two 170× slots comes up about once in every 2,000 drops.

Which risk to pick

• Low keeps your stack steady, with most drops returning close to your bet.
• High loses most drops but hits big now and then.
• All three return about the same over time. Risk changes the swings, not the average.
