Slot Machine Strategies

Categories: ,

Undoubtedly slot machines are the most famous of all casino games, Slot machines are played at almost every single casino around the world. Also known as fruit machine in British English and as poker machine in Australian English, slots are easy to play with. They don't have any complex rules involved with it , unlike the game of poker or blackjack. In other words even your granny can have great fun with slots because anybody can play and even win on his/her day.

This could be one of the reasons that why every casino have slots machines in it. Adding to the fact is that, casinos earn about 70% of their money through slot machines. Most of the money comes from problem gamblers(addicted to gambling) or casual gamblers( ones looking for pure fun). These slot machines or "one arm bandits" are very unpredictable and yet people are attracted towards them.

Slot machines consists of 3 or 5 reels and one liver on it's side although some also have a button on the front to spin the slots. But people likes to spin it by liver instead of button. First you have to inserts money or coin into it then only you will be able to spin the slots.


Strategy to look for in slot machines :

These slot machines are considered to be money makers for casinos as there are very few people that understands this game and apply any strategies to it. The biggest one that I've seen is when someone hit a jackpot on a machine the other player will not choose that machine to play, just because it hit a jackpot recently. People think that it's not going to happen again as the chances of hitting a jackpot are so less on a particular machine.
Well let me tell you something they are "Wrong".

This is where something called as “Probability” comes in and plays an important role. All the slot machines are random they are not fixed. For example if you flip a coin there are 1 out of 2 chances of getting a tails independent of previous flip. Same thing works for the slot machines a machine has same chances of hitting a jackpot again even if it just hit it recently or a month ago.

Playing while you are drunk is the biggest mistake that people do while gambling. Drinking while playing a casino game doesn't help you in any way as it destroys your decision making power deeply.

You should always know when to quit and when to continue. Always set your targets regarding money that how much money you are going to play with this is called money management. A very important aspect of gambling whether it be roulette, blackjack or poker.

Play the game and try to enjoy it, don't play with your pride like when you loose too much quitting is a good option.
