...payout a proportion of the stakes players insert. On a single visit to a casino it’s unlikely that anyone will spin the wheels the thousands of times to test weather the exact payback is higher or lower than advertised by the house.
Once a slots player has spent say an hour on a machine they can develop a mind set that compels them to stay on in search of the jackpot or simply to get out of the hole. Often they fail to understand that electronic slot machines sequences are not mechanical and programmed to pay out after a certain number of pulls, but are based on random independent events meaning that by playing longer you do not increase your advantage over the machine.
Most of the payouts you’ll win will be single number multiples of the coins staked on the more commonly occurring symbols. But if you’re looking to try to win a big jackpot, the maximum stakes inserted on a multi-coin game can leverage the maximum payout in your favour. So if you set a time and money budget for playing a machine, it’s worthwhile playing the maximum number of coins per play. It won’t lose you anymore in the long run, but will earn you a bonus when your big one hits. For example, a nickel hitting the pot would payback 2000 nickels a double play (two nickels) will pay out 5000 nickels, making the higher stakes bet a bonus winning strategy.
If you’re playing for the jackpot why go for gold?
