Three Pointer
Three Pointer is the basketball-themed Cash Crab machine. It plays differently in three ways: stakes go in steps of three (€3 to €21), there are only three balls, and a unique scatter-streak system unlocks the ×10 flaming ball over a winning run — it isn't a freely grabbable ball.
The ×10 flaming basketball is the draw here — but it's a streak reward, not a free grab (see the scatter-streak section below). What stood out to us physically: in our experience the basketballs felt on the larger, heavier side to grab, much like the Soccer footballs, so a clean pickup took a bit more care.
The three Three Pointer balls
Three balls, three multipliers — but the ×10 flaming ball works differently (see the scatter streak below):
| Ball | Multiplier | Max win (€21 bet) |
|---|---|---|
| Single basketball | ×1.5 | €31.50 |
| Double basketball | ×2 | €42 |
| Flaming basketball | ×10 | €210 |
The flaming basketball isn't a freely grabbable ball — its ×10 is a streak reward, unlocked over a 3-in-a-row winning run (see the scatter streak section below).
Payouts by ball
Win = stake × the ball's multiplier, across the €3–€21 stake range:
| Bet (€) | Single ×1.5 | Double ×2 | Flaming ×10 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 4.50 | 6 | 30 |
| 6 | 9 | 12 | 60 |
| 9 | 13.50 | 18 | 90 |
| 12 | 18 | 24 | 120 |
| 15 | 22.50 | 30 | 150 |
| 18 | 27 | 36 | 180 |
| 21 | 31.50 | 42 | 210 |
The ×10 flaming column is unlocked via the 3-in-a-row streak, not a ball you can simply pick — see the scatter streak section below.
The scatter streak — how the ×10 flaming ball is unlocked
The ×10 flaming basketball in the payout matrix above is not a ball you can freely grab — it's a streak reward, unlocked only by stringing wins together. Here's how the progress works:
- Your first win adds one scatter to the streak progress.
- As long as you keep winning, the progress builds up.
- Catch three balls in a row and the ×10 flaming basketball is unlocked on that third grab.
- A loss — or once you've collected the three balls — resets the progress back to zero.
The key point: unlike the other machines, you can't simply pick the ×10 ball — you earn it through a winning run, which makes Three Pointer a risk-and-reward game played across several rounds rather than a single grab.
How to play
Three Pointer uses the same grab mechanics as the Original Cash Crab machine — directional controls, the grab button and a 25-second timer. See the full step-by-step on the Original Cash Crab machine →. Note the stake range here: €3 to €21 in steps of three — different from every other Cash Crab machine.
Theme
Three Pointer is set in a basketball arena — a parquet court, a hoop with a net and crowd stands.
Pros & cons

- Pro: A clear basketball theme.
- Con: The lowest bet ceiling of the machines — €21 maximum.
- Con: The ×10 is only reachable through a winning streak, so it's never guaranteed; a loss resets your progress.
- Con: Its top multiplier is ×10 — below the Original (up to 20× on the Original machine).

Three Pointer FAQ
How do you get the ×10 on Three Pointer?
The ×10 flaming basketball isn't a free grab — you unlock it by landing three winning grabs in a row, and the ×10 lands on that third ball. A single loss resets the streak to zero. The full mechanic is explained in the scatter-streak section above.
Do you win the multiplier on every ball?
Yes — each successful grab pays that ball's own multiplier (×1.5 for the single basketball, ×2 for the double). The ×10 flaming ball is the exception: it's the reward for a three-in-a-row streak, landing on the third grab. Even the ×10 stays below the Original machine's top 20×.
Why are the Three Pointer stakes in steps of three?
It's the one machine with three-step staking — €3, €6, €9 and up to €21 — rather than the freer range the other machines use. There's no deeper reason than the basketball theme (three-pointers); it just means you pick from fixed €3 increments at the cashier.
