Lucky Pharaoh Paytable: What Each Symbol Pays

How the Paytable Counts

The game's paytable counts in line bets, not in total bets. The rules screen says it in one line: "Wins are multiplied by the current line bet 0.10". With 10 fixed lines, the line bet is always the total bet divided by ten. So the 500 printed beside five diamonds means 500 × 0.10 = 50.00 at the default 1.00 stake.

The server confirms the arithmetic on a real spin. When three rubies landed on one line at our 1.00 bet, it answered payout="60" and winnings="6.00", which is 60 line bets of 0.10.

Every Symbol, in Line Bets

Read on 2 Nov 2026; a source can change without saying so.

Nine paying symbols fall into five tiers, and the gaps are steep at the top. A diamond line pays five times a queen line for five of a kind, and ten times for three. Sapphire and emerald share every figure, as do ace and king, and the three low cards (Q, J and 10) are identical too.

Lucky Pharaoh Symbols in Money

In money, every symbol scales straight with the stake, since the multiples never move. We put the 1.00 default next to the lowest and highest bets.

Line Wins at 0.20, 1.00 and 100.00

At 100.00 the line bet becomes 10.00, which we checked on the rules screen itself. One practical consequence: three sapphires or three emeralds are the smallest single line that reaches 4x the bet, the Power Spins trigger. Several smaller lines can add up to it too, as our six queen lines did. One line of three queens, at 1x, falls short on its own.

At the bottom bet the low end gets tiny: five queens at 0.20 pay 2.00.

Where a Line Can Pay

A line pays for three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels anywhere along it. The paytable prints WINS PAY ADJACENT on both edges, and MERKUR's own description puts it as "from left to right, from right to left and across the centre". So a run can start on reel 1, end on reel 5 or sit in the middle on reels 2 to 4.

Our session saw two of those three cases. The three rubies paid on reels 2, 3 and 4, and so did the four sapphire lines behind our 16.00. On another spin, queens sat on reels 3, 4 and 5 (reel 5 all queens) while reels 1 and 2 held jacks and diamonds; six lines of three queens paid 1.00 each, 6.00 in all. A left-only slot would have paid nothing on any of those screens.

The Logo Symbol Pays Nothing

The logo is the tenth symbol, and it has no payout of its own. The paytable labels it "SPINS TO REVEAL A MYSTERY SYMBOL", and the server's paytable gives it an empty multipliers list. During our one Power Spin, a stack of three logos on one reel settled as three kings.

The ten symbols include no wild and no scatter, so every win is a line win. MERKUR says the pharaoh acts as a wild only in Lucky Pharaoh Wild, a separate game that we have not opened.

X5000 on the Paytable Means 500x

The X5000 on the paytable means 500 times the total bet, not 5,000. It sits beside a 5x3 grid of diamonds and, like every figure on that screen, it counts line bets. At a 1.00 stake a full screen of diamonds pays 500.00.

A comparison table on jokerstar.de's Lucky Pharaoh Wild page gives both games "5.000x Einsatz (Vollbild Diamanten)", ten times what this paytable supports. We do not recommend trusting a listing that turns a paytable figure into a stake multiple without dividing by the ten lines. The slip is easy, and it inflates every number tenfold.

For scale, the rules screen caps one game at 250,000.00 or 50,000x the total bet. A full screen of diamonds covers a hundredth of that multiplier.

Where the Paytable Falls Short

The paytable falls short in three places, and each one costs the reader something:

• it never prints a money figure, so every number needs the line-bet sum before it means anything; jokerstar.de's 5.000x is what you get by skipping that step;
• the logo gets one line, "SPINS TO REVEAL A MYSTERY SYMBOL", with no word on which symbols it can turn into or how often;
• the bottom tier barely pays: three queens, jacks or tens return 10 line bets, which is the stake back and no more.

That last one shaped our own session. A "win" that hands back 1.00 on a 1.00 spin leaves the balance where it was.

No odds for any line appear on the paytable, the rules screen or in what the server sends. We can tell you what each line pays; how often it lands is a number the game keeps to itself.

What We Won from the Paytable

Our 101 paid spins at 1.00 on 2 November 2026 produced seven wins, and every one matches the paytable to the cent. They added up to 34.00 against 101.00 staked, which is an observation about one evening and says nothing about the game's 94% return.

All seven were three-of-a-kind wins, and the diamonds stayed out of every one. Three of the seven crossed 4x and opened the Power Spins offer. We bought one 4.00 Power Spin with the rubies (it paid nothing) and collected the other two. Honestly, that's a fair picture of how thin the low end runs. Five of the seven wins were built from lines worth 10 line bets, and each such line returned exactly the 1.00 stake.
