A night of streaming slots ended in a massive jackpot for streamer Stephen “SteveWillDoIt” Deleonardis, much to the excitement of his live audience on Kick.
SteveWillDoIt is a popular streamer on Kick with over 227,000 followers. He’s one of the largest streamers on Kick and frequents the platform’s online slots category, and he’s had his fair share of wins and losses during his almost nightly streams.

The good fortune he was looking for finally came through just 45 minutes into a streaming session while playing the online slot Retro Tapes.
SteveWillDoIt wins big jackpot on Retro Tapes slot
Retro Tapes is a 6×9 grid online slot with a cluster feature where players need five or more matching symbols near each other to get a winning combination, and as SteveWillDoIt found out, it as the potential to pay out a big jackpot win when the reels turn in the bettor’s favor. The payout can continue to increase based on the number of symbols in a cluster, amplifying the winnings players can discover.
While SteveWillDoIt was playing the stylish slot, the symbols started to really cover the grid. 1s, 2s, and 10s were all over the grid expanse during the Free Spins feature, and those are instant prize symbols. Steve was finding Wild Tape symbols, which have a flat 1x multiplier when they first land but continue to increase by an additional 1x each and every time there’s a winning spin.
It’s safe to say that his viewers were getting quite excited with the display, with many wondering if he was about to max out the game’s potential winnings.

As both his fans watching on stream and his friends looking on in person predicted, SteveWillDoIt ended up getting the maximum $199K jackpot on his 14th and final free spin. His fans started to spam “BANG” in the chat, clearly exhilarated after the nerve-wracking run. One fan joked that it took Steve and his friends two years to get a big win like that in Retro Tapes. But for SteveWillDoIt, a win this big was clearly worth the wait.
Retro Tapes has an RTP of 96.47% and is highly volatile. This means that Retro Tapes doesn’t offer as many chances for payouts as some of the more consistent slots that can be found online, and there may be longer periods between big wins. That explains why SteveWillDoIt had fans on the edge of their seats waiting for such a jackpot. Even with the wait considered, this was a pretty big win, the sort of jackpot take that awaits those bettors that are patient enough to find it.
Retro Tapes offers a maximum payout of 10,000 times the starting bet. The game’s very top prize is awarded about once every 1,248,439 spins.
