  • Hi Casino Players,

    When i play slots at the casinos...I'm always trying to figure out the best system to play. Sometimes if i get a lousy bonus round i will stay at that slot thinking that the next bonus will be awesome to make up for it. Sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't.

    I try to switch up my denominations hoping i can trigger a lucky cycle on the machine. For me at least it seems the higher i bet the worse my luck. I like to play at around .60 at RTG casinos. I can raise that to .80 and still do pretty well. Beyond that bet i have not had luck.

    It seems i can tell which machine is gonna pay pretty well...it will be consistant in paying out. Although there has been a time or 2 where i am bout to bail out and i hit a nice little round.

    So i guess the moral of my story is....is there any real tricks in winning...or is it all luck?

  • Hi Lips:
        Once again that dirty word Randon Number Generator is always at work. It assures that all the llittle tricks we try to increase our chances of winning are null and void. Machines have a pay cycle and take cycle, and we all hope we are lucky enough to hit it on the pay cycle. That little chip is changing combinations of numbers a million times a minute and if we are lucky enough to hit that spin button when a winning combination is chosen is all pure luck.  I do try to watch my location for slot machines when choosing. Choosing loose areas instead of known "tight areas" is always a game plan of mine.  Slots are tuff, and the little things we try to do to increase our chances of winning seem usually to not work out.  Pure luck in my book, and I play slots exclusively. Done alot of research, and I have yet to come up with any winning edge.

  • When I play I try and bet low around at $0.50 or so until I hit a bonus round or two. Then I'll up it to $1 or $2 in hopes of hitting more bonuses and maybe making $50-$100 during those bonuses. Then I'll walk away because the Gambling Gods always seem to never be on my side when i try and win more. But, if you want to win big, in most cases you must bet big. For example I was getting frustrated at the RTG slots and dumb me deposited another $100 after just losing $100, and decided to bet $6.25 a spin. Well lucky me hit the bonus round in T-Rex with 9 free spins and on one spin I hit $1600. I was glad I deposited that extra money out of anger but 98/100 times thats most likely the WRONG move lol

  • The only good strategy for slots I can think of is QUITTING WHILE AHEAD.  As mentioned above, no mortal is a match for the RNG!  I put in $100 and if it goes up to $120 or so, I stop.  I have noticed that in most cases, with me anyway, if I keep going after $120, then it goes back to $0.

  • I might add, that it's also very possible to hit it real good even at low bets. PLaying P7 one time had $0.25 bet and hit one bonus for $225...Man had a Looonnggggggg time of fun with only a doubling of my bet..Hit some other bonus rounds, but I still had a blast!!

  • with Rival slots, when you hit the bonus, try to remember what patterns or items that you pick.  For example, you play Future Fortune.  You have to pick a right card in one of the two cards for 1st round bonus, if you get it right, then take a note to it.  You then have to pick a right card in 4 of the cards for 2nd round bonus, if u get it right, then take another note.  You will do the same with 3rd and 4th round if you can get advance.  When you play the same game at other casinos or the same casino at a later time, you will apply your strategy.  I was lucky to guess correctly 5x on this game and the reward was big, hehe. 

  • Yeah you can hit big with small wager that is very true. Also I agree with TAADAA. With Rival Slots I like to play Reel of Fortune and there is two bonus rounds you can get, some sort of game where you choose to see whats behind each curtain (3 of them) and everytime you dont get the "donkey" you advance to the next round and keep going until you get the donkey, or you play PLUNKO (same as PLINKO on Price is Right). Anyways, with the curtain game, I developed a strategy where I pick the curtain to the left always first (works 2/3 times), then when they reveal whats behind the curtain, you see where the donkey was. You NEVER pick the curtain where the donkey was for your next round. Always pick the opposite curtain that you didnt pick that didnt have a donkey behind it. It guarantees me almost $30-$50 (if I bet low) or up to $100 if I bet more. I made it past 6 rounds once and got over $300. Unfortunately that was with a free chip so of course there was a max cash out of only like $50. Dammit.

  • I only play slots also and I agree with PMM it is just luck and hitting the spin at the right time. Lately no matter where I play the slots seem to not be hitting for me and if I get a bonus still nothing. One thing I have learned if I get a decent amount on a game I am better off to leave because it tends to take everything back from me. I now change games and it seems to work out better for me.

  • yep it's all about the RNG.  I owned slot machines just to figure'em out. (hehehe lotta figure happend there) . Machine knows the moment you say spin exactly what it's gonna hit. The spinning is just for the effect & feel like something is happening. Someone said quitting while ahead. Thats very true, I just tend to suck at it. I've had great walk aways both online and in real casino's, but I've also had many crap nights with my tail between my legs cause I stuck it all back in and then some.

    Gotta be on the machine thats in a RNG cycle thats  hot. They can last a long time and really kick it out, over and over. Been there alot.  But for all that they are designed to take more than give so there's those @#%* cycles where they keep more than they give out.

    My over all stategy is to play one machine for hours. I liken it to Marlin Fishing.  When you hit you hit!  I do this in both OL casinos and brick & morter too.  So far it's done me ok. It can also be grave grave grave if a machine really is on the take, so be careful.  I've had machines in Real life that have given me 5 1099's in under 2 hours, (and it was a $1 slot).  I also like machines that have multiple jackpots, i.e. many ways to get big pots. not just say a $400 pot then the big one of $1600. So I prefer machines that have doublers, triplers etc. This tends to at least phycologicly make me feel better. (these are good machines for me in land casinos.) Online I've looked for those as well found the better (at least what I think is better) bonus & free spin machines. In my opinion some are way better than others.  Anyway theres my 2 bits on the subject of startegy where really there isn't any ;-), But it makes me feel better when I win to think there is.  I think overall I try to be grateful when I'm lucky.

  • I've been playing RTG slots alot, but I still dont know what features I have in order to win the random jackpot.  Anybody knows?

  • In "Free Mode" I have hit the "Random" on T-rex, but I think that's the key is that it is random.

    what may work for you, won't work for another.

  • Any of you here care to share how you are winning on slots?  I'm imagining some of you are just pressing the spin button or just pulling the lever.  (I've won a few low level stakes).  To constantly however hear stories about how someone had $26 or $50 and cashout at $400 or $1000 has me a little curious...

  • My big cashouts on MG been with 20-30 deposits, spinning 20-40cents and if luck was there i got a 50+ win then i raised bets to maybe 1$ and keept spinning on my favorite slots then ive done a few 2-300wins this way but sometimes you just see it all goes to 0 in a few minutes.

    Done 5-6 deposits like this last week and wasent able to withdraw a dime so just beg for some luck on your next spin smiley

  • I do best at microgaming casinos for some reason.  Actually that is all I use to play.  I noticed I have lost a lot more money since I have been playing Rival and RTG Casinos.  It is probably just me but since I have really never played them I don't have the feel for them yet.  I don't know how long to stay on a machine, how much money to lose on one before leaving, how many different machines to try, etc.  I deposit at RTG more than Rivals.  My big question is do winners spend most of their deposit one one machine or do they jump around? 

    I really have a feel for the microgaming slots.  I just have that itch and can tell if it is going to hit or not.  Can't get that with the other softwares yet.  I guess I haven't played them long enough.  I know I have deposited many, many, many times at a microgaming casino without a bonus and get up to 2-3 hundred without much effort and that is on a $25 deposit.  I just wish I could say the same about RTG casinos. 

    I am very interested in others strategy.  Great post Joseph.

  • I do best at RTG, and play a buck a spin....amde at least three hits in the last week worth a thousand, made one a bit back for 2000
    even made the 700 percent thru at bp 3 times
    i spin 25 times atta buck, move to a new slot
    end of day, its all random

  • I know this is probably going to sound absolutely crazy. And maybe it means nothing. But here i go with it........

    Did ya ever notice how the random jackpot numbers will speed up real fast to catch up with itself at RTG casinos? I am not sure if there is alot of players on at that moment or not but it never seems to fail me if them numbers are spinning fast the slot is on a roll.

    It could be pure coincidence but nonetheless i have noticed a pattern!

    Another thing im curious about is the RNG. Does the RNG change depending on what coin value is placed? I have asked this question before and was told no. It does seem like to me though as soon as i up the ante the machine dies.

  • Joseph yes there are some slot strategies.. some are slow, low and steady, some are high, fast and vigorous, my honest opinion is that there are really none, luck and/or the machine or casino you are playing at is what plays the role.. i've done it all and have found if it's going to hit or win it will, if it is not it sure the heck won't.. alot of people have even said that as soon as you are on the machine it is already set to give what it's going to give..

    When i raised the bets, i just lose faster then if i am low and steady lol

    The only other thing that is close to any strategy is timing.. but even that is a mystery, who knows.. and then there is just that feeling it's going to hit..

    Best thing to do is have fun, play the machines you enjoy, if its a win coming then it's coming!

    Quick question regarding your method.  Say you hit $40 bucks during your 25 spins on a machine....do you spin 40 times or do you stick to your method and still move on after the 25th spin?  I can use all the help I can get with RTG casinos.  I have only been really hot a few times.  Any help appreciated.
  • Yes dtsweet curious minds want to know!! Glad you asked bonusround......i would like to hear more!

    Lips
  • I have noticed that at microgaming casinos I do better if I start off at 1 or 2 coins.  If I start off at 1 coin I will give it a certain number of spins (whatever feels right but not my whole deposit) and if I don't hit a bonus round I will bump it up a coin.  Then if I hit a bonus round and don't hit anything I will bump it back down to minimum.  Then I will bet max bet but not hit the max bet button.  I have gotten the bonus many many times on the max bet by doing this.  When I do bet max I will only do it maybe for 1 or two spins.  Then I go back to one or two coins but the point is I am always changing up my bets.  I have won much more money doing this than I did at just leaving it on a set amount per spin.  It's like I am trying to fool the machine and trigger the bonus.  It may sound crazy but it seems to work for me most of the time.  I have yet to hit a huge amount doing this but if I had more self control I could withdraw 2-3 hundred.  I just don't know when to stop. 

  • lol, its not so much a stategy as ADD, lol....i just get bored and 25 seemed like a good number....if i dont hit and not having fun, i move on to the next slot....i gotta say, several times now ive last well over the weekend, playing the same 25+bonus dep, for hours n hours a day
    then again, sometimes it goes poof
    but
    at rtg, i get alot of playtime
    micro, nope
    cryptologics i do well at, but need at least 100 in to play

  • Ive tried it a few times with xx spins then 1-3 spins at max bet uselly ends up with nothing won those spins and your already down good on your deposit.

  • Sorry I should have added that I only do the max thing if I have atleast hit one or two bonuses so far.  What kills me is when I first started playing T-Rex I would do pretty good on it.  The moist I hit on a bonus round was $800+ and that was with a $1 bet.  Then I saw some screenshots of people hitting HUGE amounts betting $1.50.  I don't know how many times I have hit the bonus round on that amount to only be disappointed with a winning less than $10 bucks!  I know one night I hit the bonus 3 times at $1.50 and I got 10 + 5 + 2 spins once and hit nothing!  All three bonus rounds sucked.  I just was disgusted!  I am not used to the random number generator thingy. 

  • Ya t-rex can be really evil with freespins got 0.22win today with 6spins, which killed my last 150 playthrough on a free chip (

  • I think T Rex is one of my least fav for bonus rounds. I mean if it hits a goodie its a goodie for sure. But the disappointment when you win .20 on other rounds just isn't worth it for me.

    Reminds me of the land casino playing Party Pooper slot. I get all excited waiting for that damn bonus round only to hear......"hey who's making all that noise" the party pooper on my first pick!

    Lips
  • lmao, i remember that one...ya, i always picked a pooper

  • Miss land based slots, had good luck one them got the 3 bars which gave me 38 bonus spins once after stuffing 300 in the machine paid me 4000, then a few days later i won 1200 on a 50 deposit good old times never seen anything like that lol

  • my second biggest hit is online...$2100, just under my $2500 at a land based

  • My biggest online was 350 on soccer safari but was on a maniac 6$ spins got 2x 5 symbols on same spin but blew it all away as usual

  • My biggest win at a land casino was not a slot it was a raffle. I won $3k and i was sooooooooo happy. I had to pick one of the 5 envelopes ranging between $1k - $5k.

    There were five winners drawn and each one us got to pick and envelope in the order we were called for the raffle. I was called 3rd and had to wait my turn to pick the envelope. The whole time i was eyeing one saying please please don't pick that one envelope i just know it has the 5k in it........and he did pick it!!!

    I was still happy and can't complain. The most i won was on a video poker machine for 2,500!

  • I use to play lucky seals at land based casino and hit jackpot not once but twice within a month on it.  9 lines times 2 (.05 cent machine).  Jackpot was for a little over 2k each time.


  • I use to play lucky seals at land based casino and hit jackpot not once but twice within a month on it.  9 lines times 2 (.05 cent machine).  Jackpot was for a little over 2k each time.


    There was something i figured out about a machine i played on land based, penny machine and i hit all five of the top symbols, which was a 9 liner the top payout for it was 1000.00, it was around 3am on a monday, so i decided to try it again on a hunch, went out on a monday hit again the time was 3:30 am..

    This i noticed happen alot at Sams Town right before midnight and just before 6 am machines would go crazy, so that was always my time when i'd play for the biggies or mulitple big hits. Poker did really well at these times (early morning hours). I always thought they suck in all this day time money from everyone then when its slowed down some they start hitting.. i know that landbased casinos have to show some kind of payouts between an amount of time, other good days were always around the 3rd til maybe the 6th of the months.
  • I used to go to Sams Town everyday Imagin.

    I remember I won 7k playing Cleopatra Keno on the Quarter/Nickel Machines, right by the No Smoking section. I was playing max bet on 20 bucks, $2 a spin, I got 7 or 8 out of 9 a whole bunch of times, it was around that time in the morning as well.


    Do you play at the new Cannery? I never had any luck there.


    :-*

  • I was hooked on Keno for years, then moved to poker, then to penny bonus slots. Sams Town, Nevada Palace (now the canery) El Cortez, Boulder Station were my favs.. my winnings are in to 100's of 1000's i was very lucky, i was really good with 9 spot keno and poker. I loved to do the city block pattern, or diagnal pattern, i liked hitting 8 of 9 spot because i got paid just under the taxable amount, i'd hit 8 of 8 alot but then theres the taxes, same with 7 of 7, big money big big taxes
