Dead or Alive Saloon FAQ
Answers to the 20 most common questions about Evolution's Dead or Alive Saloon.
What is Dead or Alive Saloon?
Dead or Alive Saloon is a Wild West-themed live casino game show by Evolution Gaming. It features a wheel with number segments (1, 2, 5) and the Duel bonus round, plus unique Wanted Poster multipliers that can boost any win.
What is the RTP?
Dead or Alive Saloon has an overall RTP of approximately 96%. Individual bet RTPs vary slightly, with number bets generally offering better returns than bonus bets. The Duel bonus offers high variance but significant upside.
How does the Duel bonus work?
When the wheel lands on Duel, two outlaws face off. Each round, one outlaw survives and your multiplier builds. The longer the duel continues, the bigger your potential win. It's high-risk, high-reward.
What is the maximum win?
The maximum win in Dead or Alive Saloon is 10,000x your bet. This can be achieved through extended Duel bonus rounds combined with Wanted Poster multipliers.
How do Wanted Posters work?
Wanted Posters appear before each spin and can add multipliers (2x-100x) to specific wheel segments. If the wheel lands on a Wanted Poster segment, your win is multiplied. This is similar to Lightning multipliers in other games.
How often does Duel trigger?
The Duel segment appears on approximately 5-7% of wheel positions. Expect to trigger the bonus roughly once every 15-20 spins on average, though variance can cause longer dry spells.
What are the outlaw characters?
The game features various Wild West outlaw characters. Each has different personality and animation, but all function the same for betting and payouts. Character selection is purely aesthetic.
Is Dead or Alive Saloon rigged?
No, the game is certified fair by gaming authorities. Evolution Gaming holds licenses from the MGA and UKGC. The wheel is physical and Wanted Poster multipliers use certified RNG.
What is the best betting strategy?
Popular strategies include: focusing on number bets (1, 2) for better RTP, always covering Duel for big-win potential, or balancing base bets with bonus coverage. No strategy overcomes the house edge.
What are the betting limits?
Limits vary by casino. Typical minimums range from $0.10 to $1 per position. Maximums usually range from $1,000 to $10,000 per bet. Check your specific casino for exact limits.

Is this related to the Dead or Alive slot?
