 Slots
Slot machines have actually been around since
the late 1800's. However, the popularity of these one-armed bandits skyrocketed
when they became part of the Vegas scene at the Flamingo Hilton. Years ago,
slot machines consisted of only three reels. Now they are up to twenty or
more. Sometimes a reel can contain hundreds of symbols.
This is a game that is easy and
fun to play. No special skills are required. Take your time, relax and enjoy.
That is why Slot machines appeal to so many. The fewer reels and symbols
there are, then the greater chance a player has of hitting the jackpot. For
example, if a 3-reel machine has 10 symbols, multiply 10x10x10 = 1,000.
Therefore, the odds of hitting the jackpot on that particular machine are 999 to
1.
A slot machine payout
occurs when a specific combination of symbols appears on the screen. It could be
vertical, horizontal by line or diagonal. As an example, if three lemon symbols
appear on all the reels on the same pay line, then a payout of the player wins a
certain amount.
How to Play
Don't put any money in the slot
machine until you have read the payout table on the front of the machine.
Set a spending and time limit for yourself. Do not exceed it. Know which
denomination machines that you want to play. Experts recommend that it is best
to insert the maximum number of coins in order to get the best payout. Stop
playing when you are winning. If you have a credit accumulating on the slot
machine, CASH OUT while you are ahead. If you are doing well on a low paying
machine, take a chance on a higher paying machine.
Strategists at The Gambler's Edge
suggest the following figures in order to determine how much cash is needed in
order to play various machines. It is based on a three coin maximum bet with ten
spins per minute. It has 90 per cent pay out rate.
Nickel Machine: $9.00 per
hour
Quarter Machine: $45.00 per hour
One Dollar Machine: $180.00 per
hour
Five Dollar Machine: $ 900.00 per hour
Strategy
Remember that every machine is
different. Microchip processors that are able to conceive of every possible
combination of symbols run them. Most of these machines are programmed to pay
out between 83 and 99 per cent of the coins that are deposited into them. Seek
out a high paying machine – 99 per cent, if possible. Experts recommend that a
player never select a machine at random. In order to do this, spend some time
observing players at the machines. The loose ones seem to be planted in
strategic locations. If you talk to players and personnel on the floor, they
might divulge which machines are more generous than others. It is known that
loser machines seem to be located in the following areas: near change booths;
snack shops; "crosswalks (main traffic areas); free-standing or elevated kiosks.
Skilled players suggest that there
is a greater chance of winning when the bettor selects a mid-paying machine as
opposed to one with a large jackpot. It is also recommended that no coins/tokens
be replayed that have already been won. If you have already deposited and run
your allotted funds for the game into the machine, it is best to quit. The only
exception to this would be if the machine were pumping out a lot of coins. Quit
when you have lost half or more of your initial stake or when no coins have been
released during the last ten pulls.
Above all, look before you play. A
few minutes of observation may be worth a few dollars in the pocket.
