Obviously there is no sure fire way to beat a slot machine.If there was we would all be rich and casino would no longer exist. But by following this guide of what to lookfor, you will be surprised at just how far your bankroll will get you.

Avoid the latest and greatest bells and whistles themed slots. What is a theme slot? If it features brands you know and love, like the Wizard of Oz or Willy Wonka and such. That's a theme. Pretty much anything based on a big movie or TV show is a theme.

So why are they bad for you? Leasing and Royalty fees. Now I'm just going to pull some numbers straight out of my ass, just in case you are a slot director. These numbers will vary by casino and market, but the premise is true. Lets say an average machine is expected to 'earn' $50.00 an hour 24 hours a day. A standard slot machine that the casino owns can afford to keep 10% of what it takes in. If you gamble $2.50 per spin and can get 200 spins in on an hour (3-4 spins per minute roughly) that's $500.00 of coin-in thru the machine. The game pays back 90% to you (on average) and gives 10% to the casino (this ain't no soup kitchen).

So what does the casino have to keep to make a themed slot 'earn' the same $50 per hour? They usually have to lease the machine, so they either have to share the revenue, or pay a fee of $50-$100 per day for the right to borrow the machine. The Royalties need to be covered somewhere as well. Usually the guys making the machines have to pay upfront to gain the likeness of an actor or to borrow the theme from a movie/show. All of that extra money will need to be covered by you, the player, in the form of a shittier payback IE a higher hold/keep for the casino.

So instead of 90% payback, you might be looking at 85%. And that's money out of your pocket or less time on a machine.

Also, know the game. Read the rules! I’ve covered this before. I’vesat down at a machine and played on less than Max Bet only to hit the bonusgame symbol and find out you can only play it at Max. So read the rules andknow what you are playing. It should say right on the screen what it takes toactivate all the features. Sometimes you can only land that big progressivewith Max Bet. So read up!

Just repeating myself here, the higher the denomination thebetter the payouts. But not everyone can afford to play $100.00 a spin. Fearnot faithful readers, I’ll show you how I win (sometimes) and at the very leasthow I don’t lose quickly.

Fortunes are won every day on a slot machine. But thoselucky few are such a small minority of slot players the average gamer can onlydream of hitting the big one. The best I have ever done was winning a$10,365.00 progressive on a $3.00 Max Bet. But I did it. Sure it was dumb luck,unlike Video Poker these machines have no player advantage. Pretty much hit thespin button and cross your fingers. But you can use your head and find theright game.

At the very least, these tips will give you more play time ona game, cutting down your losses by slowing the hemorrhaging of cash is a winunto itself. But also picking the right slot can actually mean a winning day atthe casino.

Avoid all of those huge progressive machines! Orat least play them sparingly. Most machines in a certain denomination pay back about the same. On pennies,figure 88% as a rough average. So that game with a max Jackpot of $1,000.00 ismuch more beatable than the one with a $1,000,000.00 Jackpot. It’s simple math.

While both of these types have the same 88%payback, the one with the lower Jackpot will payout much more in the shortterm. Meanwhile that huge 1 Million Jackpot keeps building up since the machineis taking away money that could have been put back into the game (to equal that88% payback number) and it is now holding it for one lucky Jackpot winner. THEIR Million Dollar victory spreads out to equal the average.

So find yourself a game with a low Top Award and play away. Thisis what I do. Sure I chase the dream every now and then, but aiming for a low Top Award isplaying smart. And even if you don’t win any money, all that extra game time youwill be getting, as your smaller wins keep recycling themselves, will end upbeing more players club points on your card.

Sure you lost your $50.00 in an hour, but you put a ton of play through your card (coin-in) and you nowhave some slot club credits that you will build up for a room or at least some food. So that’sstill a win!

Now pennies are the worst bet in a casino. But they are noweverywhere. Why? Game time. You can get plenty of play on one of these machines,and they will help you move up through those slot clubs even faster. Thesemachines are notorious with “wins” that are actually losses. You spent $1.25 onthat spin and you just “won” $1.00.

Sure, you actually lost a quarter, but youare now recycling your money. I know a ton of people with higher level players’club cards that are actually low rollers in real life. But they play penniesand get plenty of coin-in so they are rewarded as much players that bet bigger, but do so for a sorter amount of time. Thesystem works!

The below example is the perfect machine to play. You willget plenty of game time on this type of machine, and in the short term, you stand adecent chance of cashing out a winner.

So what exactly are you looking at?

The top hit is only $67.50 per line hit. Now this is when you areplaying at the .25 a spin level. That’s 1times the bet. That quarter will cover all 27 lines and whatever you win itpays back 1 times the symbol. So getting the 7’s will pay you $67.50 per line. Play .50a spin and you are now doubling whatever wins you get. So $135.00 is the top line hit now. Play .75 per and you are now looking at $202.50. With a top hit thatlow, and the same 88% payback as other machines, you stand a much better chanceof actually hitting the highest award on the game. No “hold back” to feed amassive progressive.

27 Ways to win! With 27 ways to win, and only 3 reels, chancesare you will hit something each spin. Not always will it actually be a profit,but the more money you can recycle, the better your chance of being on themachine long enough to win a higher amount. More ways to win equals a bettershot at a Jackpot.

Multiple bet choices. Depending on your level of play youcan chose your risk on these games. Play $0.25 (1 times) $0.50 (2 times) $0.75(3 times) $1.25 (5 times) & the Max Bet of $2.50 (10 times). The more youare willing to risk, the higher the game will actually pay you when you hitsomething great. There is nothing wrong with low rolling on this type of game.Since that same .25 bet will win you all of the features as the 2.50 bet. Justfor less money. You want better odds? This type of game offers that. Since we all know that (usually) the higher the denomination the better the payback. You can switch this from pennies to 2 pennies. Some of these games will let you j
