| Big Oranges | 2 / 53 | 3.77% | 4x – 200x | 95.60% | 4.40% |

Bonus bets large enough for a maximum result to breach the 500,000 single-round cap are published at a reduced 94.55%.
The same figures in money
Take the edge, multiply it by turnover, and you have the long-run cost. Turnover, not deposit: a 50 balance recycled twenty times is 1,000 across the table, and the edge works on the thousand.
| Stake per round | Turnover per hour | Cost on Leaf | Cost on Huge Reds |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.50 | 45 | 1.31 | 2.17 |
| 1.00 | 90 | 2.61 | 4.35 |
| 3.00 | 270 | 7.83 | 13.04 |
| 10.00 | 900 | 26.10 | 43.47 |
Any individual hour lands well away from these in both directions.
Where 94.55% comes from
Evolution caps a round at 500,000 in table currency. At small stakes the cap never comes into play. At large bonus stakes it cuts the top off the payout distribution, and the published return for those bets falls to 94.55%.
The practical reading: betting near the table maximum on Huge Reds means playing a measurably worse game than the info screen describes for smaller stakes, because the cap removes exactly the outcomes the bet is priced for. More on the cap.
