The following information about slot machines
is geared more towards land casinos; however the concepts
can easily be applied to online casinos. Almost all machines
will reward you for playing maximum coins. Take, for instance,
a machine which if you play 3 coins the jackpot will pay 1000
coins and if you play 4 coins, it pays 2500. If you don't
want to play maximum coins, think about playing on a machine
which accepts smaller denominations.
Never allow your due credits to be lost. If
you are being payed a win, you must claim your prize from
a slot attendant before playing more coins. If the machine
runs out of money to pay you, make sure you don't leave your
machine - instead, wave over a helper or illuminate the light
on your machine. People can claim your machine if you leave
it.
Pick your machine wisely. Places where people
kill time, like airports, the machines are very tight. Try
to frequent places which rely on regular customers, where
the owners are more than happy to grant you a low house percentage
to return and sit for hours.
If your machine is being tight, it might be a good idea to
switch machines. Even if the new machine is the same style,
identical machines can possess different percentages.
