Executive Summary
RLSH closes April week 5 RTP delta with two movers: Hand of Anubis II (Hacksaw) advances +0.18% above provider-stated 96.27%, Razor Returns (Push) regresses ?0.31% from provider-stated 96.71%, full bench notes.
Two movers close April week 5 on the RLSH delta tracker. Hand of Anubis II (Hacksaw Gaming) advances +0.18% above provider-stated 96.27%. Razor Returns (Push Gaming) regresses ?0.31% from provider-stated 96.71%. Both deltas are inside provider-stated margin of operation; the bench notes follow.
## The movers
| Slot | Provider | Provider-stated RTP | Observed (week 5) | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hand of Anubis II | Hacksaw Gaming | 96.27% | 96.45% | +0.18% |
| Razor Returns | Push Gaming | 96.71% | 96.40% | ?0.31% |
Both movers across 4,200 paid spins per slot, ?5 base bet normalised.
## Hand of Anubis II read
The +0.18% advance places the observed RTP comfortably inside the 95% confidence interval. The sequel to Hand of Anubis tightens the Soul Orb collect mechanic — bench observation logs a tighter Soul Orb collect at p50 178 spins (vs original's 215 spins). The trigger tightening accounts for the upward observed RTP.
The 96.45% does not signal an "edge" — it is observation, not advantage. Provider-stated 96.27% remains the long-term reference. Future bench windows will normalise toward provider-stated as sample expands.
## Razor Returns read
The ?0.31% regression is the more interesting movement. Razor Returns' Mystery Stack feature is the variance source; the week 5 bench logged 6 triggers across 4,200 spins (1 per 700 spins, vs provider-stated frequency of 1 per ~520).
The under-trigger is what dragged the observed RTP down. The Mystery Stack accounts for ~3% of total RTP under stated frequency; under-firing by 30% explains roughly the ?0.3% delta. Sample-size noise, not a structural shift.

## Methodology note
Bench rail: editor's-pick GCash rail Hacksaw Gaming Hand of Anubis II + Push Gaming Razor Returns builds. Sample: 4,200 paid spins per slot, week of April 22-27. Stake: ?5 normalised. RTP computed on credited returns / wagered handle.

## What's on the May week 1 watch
Three slots queued for the next bench window:
1. **Le Pharaoh (Hacksaw)** — currently mid-bench, expected close week 1.
2. **Mahjong Ways 3 (PG Soft)** — opening bench week 1.
3. **Sweet Bonanza Xmas (Pragmatic)** — RTP carry-forward read from April.
The May week 1 close report will reconcile the carry-forward.
## What this delta does NOT mean
- The +0.18% on Hand of Anubis II does not mean the slot is "running hot." Sample-window observation only.
- The ?0.31% on Razor Returns does not mean the slot is "broken." Sample-window observation only.
- Neither delta justifies stake-sizing changes. Provider-stated remains the long-term math reference.
## FAQ
**Does the tracker recommend playing the +Δ slot?**
No. The tracker reports observation. Playing decisions should reference provider-stated long-term RTP, not weekly observed.
**How wide is the 95% CI for a 4,200-spin window?**
At volatility 8-9/10, roughly ±0.45% to ±0.55%. Both deltas fall inside.
**When does observed RTP become "trend"?**
The tracker requires a 4-week consistent direction (4 sequential windows above or below provider-stated by ≥0.2%) before flagging trend. Single-week movement is observation only.
