Slots Tips

Many people believe they have the right tips and strategies to win. Others use a lucky rabbit foot or other "superstitious" objects such as lucky coins or lucky shirts in order to win. There are some tips that seem to work over many years of playing and some actually have logic to them. Probably the most important tip to playing slots is to play only to have fun. Only play with money you can afford to lose and with the expectation of losing it all. The reason is casinos are businesses designed to earn a profit so the odds are always against you. Gambling is a form of entertainment. The whole purpose of the casino is to have fun and be entertained, much like spending money at a movie, but with the higher probability of winning a few hundred dollars or even becoming a millionaire.

Now for the tips to actually begin yielding the biggest profits: The number one tip is to always bet the maximum amount whether it is the maximum pay lines or coin amounts. You want to do maximum bets since this will usually be the only way to win the jackpot or at least get more "bang for the buck" when you do win. This has some logic to it as well. It all has to do with payout odds vs. payoff amounts and dollars betted.

Look for machines with the best payout percentage. In many land based casinos, this percentage is printed on some slot machines. The higher this number, the more often you will win. For instance, if you are playing for real money on dollar slots, take $100 and make 100 bets and stop. If the payout percentage is 99%, you should have $99 after 100 bets. Realistically this usually doesn't happen exactly this way, but it should pay out 99% over the long term. The way to win is to use this unrealistic pattern to earn more than $100 and then cash out in the short term. In the long term, you will not come out ahead since the casino is always going to have the odds. That's why when you plan to use all your coins, you are trying to hit the jackpot, so the best tip is to do the maximum bet if your objective is to win the jackpot.

Another tip is choosing which casino to play at, especially if it's online. Certain casinos offer slots clubs where players can join for free and have the ability to collect comp points. These comp points can be exchanged for additional funds or other prizes. Other casinos offer incentives such as free cash in order to compete with other casinos, which is extremely common in online casinos. All of these things give you some kind of advantage to increase your payouts and total odds.

Some casinos offer slots tournaments. These work by paying an entry fee to join and there great odds because you are competing against a group of other people. The fewer people that join, the better odds you have of winning. These types of tournaments usually have very nice prize money involved and they are usually cheap to join. This is just one more tip to increase your edge of advantage. Your odds increase cumulatively with the application of these tips and that's pretty much the name of the game. Each tip just increases your overall odds by a small amount.
