This Week's Free Slot Tournament: Pelican Payday By Pragmatic Play

Our Free Slot Tournaments are back for another week, and this time the spotlight’s on Pelican Payday, a feathered fisher’s oceanic adventure from Pragmatic Play.
It’s completely free to enter, with no deposit or download required.
Just log in, pick the live tournament, and use your fixed spins to land winning combinations and climb the leaderboard before it closes.
Our Monthly Tournament runs in parallel in the same format, so there's a second leaderboard to aim for, too.
Meet This Week’s Game: Pelican Payday
Pelican Payday sends players reeling in money symbols worth up to 1,000x apiece.
During the base game, collecting symbols landing on reel three instantly awards the total value of all money symbols on screen that same spin.
Landing three scatters triggers the bonus game, awarding eight free spins, which can be retriggered.
Collect symbols can hit on any reel during the feature, with each one adding the value of all money symbols to a running pot before awarding its current value.
It’s a game built around that building prize pot rather than one single bonus trigger, and exactly the kind of title that makes for an entertaining tournament format. The RTP sits at 96.59%.
Tips To Climb This Week’s Leaderboard
Because tournament scoring is based on landing winning combinations rather than real-money stakes, the games that reward players fastest tend to be the ones with frequent, visible payouts.
Pelican Payday’s collect symbols mean points can build steadily even in the base game, and the free spins round is where the biggest score jumps happen as the pot keeps growing.
Since your spins are fixed and don’t refresh once they’re used, it’s worth spending a minute getting a feel for how the collect symbols and bonus pot work before you dive in properly, rather than burning through your spins before you understand the game.
A couple of quick tips for anyone chasing the top of the leaderboard this week:
- Don’t rush your spins early. Get a feel for how the collect symbols and bonus pot work first, since you won’t get your spins back once they’re gone.
- Watch for the free spins round. With collect symbols building the pot on every reel, this is where your score has the best chance of jumping significantly.
