On buy-a-pay slot, each coin wagered unlocks a portion of a game’s potential pays. On some, it’s as simple as three pay lines across the reels, so that you win only on combinations across the center reel if you bet one coin, also win on the top line if you bet two, and add bottom line wins lines if you bet three coins.
Sorry about the delay since my last posting. I’ve been hard at work reading slot machine manufacturer specification sheets, and also playing the slots in my local casino – so that I can now bring you a list of slot machine payout cycles / volatility. I don’t believe you’ll find this information elsewhere! I researched it, I’ve prepared it (as I do with ALL content on this site) – so if by chance it ends up appearing somewhere else on the Internet going forward, remember where you saw it FIRST. Here!
To my mind there are three main types of slot machines. Those that have Frequent Hits and Modest Wins, those with Mid-range Hits and Medium Wins, and those with Less Frequent Hits and Larger Wins. I’ve arranged my list / tables with this in mind. I’ve considered slot machines from multiple slot machine manufacturers: IGT, Aristocrat, WMS, Bally, etc to try and provide a comprehensive listing. That said, I’m only featuring about 100 slot machines here – and there are many many thousands of slot machine varieties out there… still, it’s a start right?
- If your credits reach the critical 1,440 or go down, you better cash out and finish your game session at this slot machine. However, if you win a prize during the second “ set ” of spins, that means you can continue playing and this time, you are enabled to choose more than 10 rounds per betting session.
- Nowadays more than 70 percent of casino revenues comes from slot machines, and in many jurisdictions, that figure tops 80 percent. About 80 percent of first-time visitors to casinos head for the slots. It's easy - just drop coins into the slot and push the button or pull the handle.
- Slots odds are now based upon payout percentages dictated by computer programs. So, two casinos might offer Lucky 7’s; one casino might pay out at 97% while the other casino pays out at 83%. Same slot, different payout percentages. The key is to read and understand the slot pay table available on any and all slot games before playing.
- Slot machines aren’t just for grandma. People of all ages hit the slots and many of them win big. The key is knowing how to tell if a slot machine is ready to pay. No gambling strategy is foolproof, but we’ve compiled some slot machine tips below to help you determine if a game is ready to payout.
If you’re a small recreational slot player, sticking with Frequent Hits and Modest Wins machines will lower your risk of going broke early. Middle of the road slot players with a few hundred dollars of bankroll might enjoy the Mid-range Hits and Medium Wins machines. Only serious / well bankrolled players should ideally play the Less Frequent Hits and Larger Wins slot machines – these are VERY volatile!
