Casino Spinning Reel Strategy
Coin Multipliers
Choose a simple machine. The best practice used by many experienced players when selecting a spinning reel slot machine is to stick to the basic three-reel non-progressive machines. This is also the best advice for novice players. To stretch your bankroll, look for two-coin machines with a single payline. By sticking with a single-payline machine, you will know, without studying the paytable, that you are playing either a multiplier or an option-buy online casino game. By betting maximum coins or credits on a two-coin machine, you know that you will always qualify for the top awards. For inexperienced players, this is the safest approach for a minimum investment.
Paytables
If you find the paytables to be even the slightest bit confusing, heed the above advice. The more sophisticated techniques outlined below require you to fully understand the paytables for the various types of games. If you are looking for more variety there is nothing wrong with playing the three- and five-coin machines, so long as you have a sufficient bankroll that allows you to always bet the maximum.
Avoid games with high jackpots. Somehow this sounds contrary to what we are trying to do. Don’t we want to win the biggest jackpots? Sure, but the chances of being successful are extremely remote. For example, a very popular Bally game is Stars & Bars. One version of this game has a top jackpot of 10,000 coins, but the chances of winning it are 1 out of 262,144 spins. It doesn’t take a math genius to figure out that at 400 spins per hour, you would have to play over 655 hours to rack up 262,144 spins.
Stars and Bars
There is another version of Stars & Bars with a top casino jackpot of only 1200 coins, for which the chances of winning are much better: 1 out of 32,768 spins. In this case, the lower the payout, the better the chance
of winning it. An examination of the manufacturer’s specifications for different models of machines reveals that this is a general trend. Take a really high jackpot, such as the 40,000 coins found on French Quarters (50,000 in some versions). Here the chances of winning the top award are 1 in 2 million spins! This is getting to be astronomical for a non-progressive game. Of course, there is a mathematical reason why the program designers have to do this: to control the overall payback on the machine, these very high jackpots have to be made much tougher to hit.
This leads to the logical and correct conclusion that, most of the time, it is easier to win the top prize in a game with smaller jackpots. Furthermore, to keep the overall payback balanced, many games with modest top awards will compensate by rewarding you with a greater number of small and medium payouts.
Best Strategy Advice
Therefore, the best strategy advice is to play those games with the lower jackpots, preferably no higher than 3000 coins. This has another advantage: Most slot players go for machines with high jackpots, so the ones with low jackpots are more likely to be available in a crowded casino.
The core of the entire process is the simple principle of betting more when we have the advantage, like at a true count of +3 or more, and less or the minimum allowable when we don't.
Gambling Operation
There are several different types of bonuses. Some are fairly normal, such as the match-play bonuses, which are worth approximately one-half the face value.
