Is it possible to have a better month than NG Slot?
Here’s how it all stacked up for the gregarious Armenian American:
- He captured one of the biggest jackpots in the history of slots on YouTube
- The big win powered him into elite territory with 700,000 subscribers.
- He announced plans to put $1 million on the line when he hits one million subscribers on YouTube.
The power of NG Slot is real apparently.
While NG Slot was the biggest story of the month there was still plenty of news from the slots space with Cowboy Slots riding his way up the charts, Lady Luck doing what she does best and a brand-new slots channel in the top 10, and that’s no bluff.
Let’s get to it with the SlotsFan Power Rankings.
The SlotsFan Power Rankings
If you’re looking to find Vegas Matt dislodged from his perch atop the slots rankings, I’ve got some bad news for you. The Vegas local recorded another display of slots action that attracted over 50 million views on YouTube.
There could be some very interesting developments in the SlotsFan Power 5 over the next couple months but I wouldn’t bet on anyone taking the crown from Vegas Matt.
This month Lady Luck HQ and Mr. Hand Pay held onto their usual slots at #2 and #3 respectively but NG Slot soared to fourth place, which knocked Brettski down a slot and kicked The Big Jackpot right out of the top five (they’re friends, I’m sure it’s fine).
1. Vegas Matt – 53 Million Views
Another 53 million views for Vegas Matt and 40,000 new subs. At this point that’s business as usual.
This month saw Vegas Matt experiment with putting some of the supporting cast in front of the camera including EJ, WBG, W2Jesus and even his wife (Vegas Mom as they affectionately called her). I’ve said for years the supporting cast of Vegas Matt is one of the strongest elements of his channel so it’s great to see them front and center.
Vegas Matt also recorded an incredibly fun video on Hyper Link this month where it felt like he might never stop winning.

2. Lady Luck HQ – 23.3 Million Views
Life-changing jackpots and misty-eyed celebrations are becoming a regular occurrence on Lady Luck HQ and this month was no exception.
Lady Luck HQ invaded the Venetian to take on a variety of slot machines before rotating back to her old favorite: Dragon Link.
The session didn’t start off so hot but Dragon Link saved the day as Lady Luck pillaged one poor machine for tens of thousands of dollars.
The Dragon Queen strikes again.
Subs: 842,000 (+32,000)
Previous Rank: 2
Most Popular Video of the Month (73,265 views): Lady Luck HQ Torches Venetian for $75,000
3. Mr. Hand Pay – 18.1 Million Views
Mr. Hand Pay recorded another extremely strong month with 23,000 new subscribers and 18.1 million views.
Mr. Hand Pay continues to experiment with his Your Luck Has Arrived series where he features random people he finds at casinos and gives them slot freerolls. It’s incredibly charming and this month he gave the likes of Donna, Yvonne and Uncle Tony a shot at winning life-changing money.
It’s really cool seeing a slots influencer putting someone else in the spotlight. Mr. Hand Pay’s most popular video this month, however, was a monster hit on – what else – Huff ‘N’ Even More Puff.
Subs: 774,000 (+23,000)

4. NG Slot – 14.4 Million Views
The power of NG Slot is back!
NG Slot put on an epic performance in May that finally pushed him past the highly-coveted 700,000 subscriber mark. NG is now in rarified air with only Vegas Matt, Lady Luck and BC Slots ahead of him.
A large part of the reason NG Slot is back in the SlotsFan Power 5 is his truly extraordinary hit on Huff ‘N’ Even More Puff.
This is what NG Slot had to say in the intro to the video:
“Take your seat. Fasten your seatbelt and get a glass of water. This one is going to be hot.”
He wasn’t lying. By the time the dust had settled, NG Slot was holding a giant novelty check for $799,532. Not a bad day in the office. This is one of the most spectacular hits I’ve seen.
Subs: 701,000 (+20,000)

5. Brettski – 12.7 Million Views
Brettski had a slower month in May but he held on to fifth spot overall, which has to be considered a win when you think about the heavy hitters that didn’t make the cut.
It didn’t help that Brettski was a little bit of a late bloomer this month as his most popular video was posted towards the end of the month.
The video features a novel concept where he plays a variety of different “Link” games including Buffalo Link, Lightning Link, Fire Link and Dragon Link.
In the end it wasn’t much of a competition as Brettski lost gads of money on every single link… except for Dragon Link. He turned the session around by hitting a minor bonus orb on Dragon Link for $5,000. Brettski walking away a winner, who would have thunk it?

Subscriber Leaderboard: The Big Bluff Shakeup
You might notice some interesting changes to the overall subscriber leaderboard on SlotsFan this month.
We made a key change to the leaderboard by adding breakout gambling channel Bluff (also known as Bobby Rivas). Bluff is more of a variety streamer (more on that in a moment), but he’s been doing so much slots content lately that it was becoming impossible to ignore him.
Of course adding Bluff (who has 446,000 subs) shook up the leaderboard and knocked some of the long-time slots channels like VegasLowRoller, Cowboy Slots and Brettski down a peg.
I’ve got to give a shout out to Cowboy Slots, however, as Brantley managed to lasso another 23,000 new subscribers (check out the SlotsFan interview with Cowboy Slots).
One of the biggest surprises this month was that Cowboy Slots lassoed another 23,000 new subscribers.

Spotlight Channel: Bluff
So who is Bluff?
You might know him as BluffinBob or Bobby Rivas but the channel has only been around for a little over a year.
Bluff had a highly unusual journey into gambling content. He was working as an automotive tech in Arizona before he transitioned full-time into YouTube content. Previously Bluff was a professional Razor scooter rider and even competed in some Nitro Circus events. That experience with social media and self-promotion gave him an advantage when creating his YouTube Channel. One of his earlier videos (a nearly $7,000 blackjack hand) went viral and attracted over 100 million views, giving him a tremendous head start.
It’s hard not to root for Bluff as he’s routinely one of the most positive gambling influencers with excellent table manners.
Recently Bluff has started to experiment more with slots content and he’s appeared in several popular slot influencer videos including Brettski, Lady Luck HQ and The Big Jackpot.
Milestone Watch: The Power of NG
It’s not every month you hit 700+ subs but that’s exactly what NG Slot pulled off in May. It’s a huge milestone for NG Slot and there’s a good chance he surpasses long-time slots content creator Brian Christopher Slots in the next few months.
At this point you just know that NG Slot is focused primarily on hitting one million subs and anything short of that number would be a disappointment.
NG Slot wasn’t the only slots influencer who smashed in May, however.
VegasLowRoller AND Cowboy Slots are on the cusp of 400,000 subs. It should be a very interesting battle between the two popular slots influencers as Cowboy Slots currently seems to have some momentum and might pass VegasLowRoller as early as next month.
Meanwhile Pompsie Slots has slowed somewhat recently but is still on the cusp of 300,000 subs, which is a significant milestone.
Here’s a look at some of the other trending slots influencers:
Trending Slots Influencers
NG Slot – 701,000

Cowboy Slots – 397,000 subs
Pompsie Slots – 294,000
