How To Beat The Slot Machine

“Probability is the very guide of light”. Cicero (104 – 43 B.C.)

While there is no tried and true rule or explanation of how to beat the slot machine, if you want to enjoy yourself with a good possibility of winning, it is important to understand the role that probability pays in determining when / if a player actually hits the jackpot and wins.

As you probably know already, there are numerous different types of slot machine games. Depending on the game as well, jackpot size, winning combinations, symbols, size and number of coins allowed in each play will also vary. Because most modern slot machines are completely electronic, the symbol combinations come up randomly and machines are pre-programmed to return a certain percentage (in the form of winnings) to the players.

All slot machines display the payoffs associated with certain winning combinations and on average a slot machine will return between 85% and 98% of a player’s bets. Thus, to beat the slot machine while having fun, the key may be lie in being able to identify and staying with slot machines that return the higher percentages. Try playing the slots at an airport, bus station or other non-typical gaming spots and your return will be ridiculously low, and you’re definitely more likely to lose than to win.

Note carefully, the slot machines account for a very large portion of a casino's action and actual winnings. They are very simple to use, inexpensive to maintain, and require little or no skill to play, so it’s no surprise that not everybody goes home a winner. But some do!
