Slots Machine Gameplay Strategies
The idea behind playing slots, is to make the symbols that spin around, line up with other symbols, so as to create a win as per the machine’s payout table. Players choose how much to bet and how many lines to play.
The payout schedule displays the machines winning combinations and the values for each combination. These values vary according to the credit bet with each spin.
Some machines give the player the opportunity to win money via secondary game. This usually involves the player betting half or all of his/her winnings on the possibility that a hidden card is either red or black. Some machines also offer free and/or ‘feature’ games.
There are generally two kinds of slots machines: standard and progressive. Standard machines function on their own and payout winnings according to their payout table. Progressive machines are a series of machines linked up to each other. These machines share a common jackpot or jackpot values. The shared jackpots grow over time, as more and more people play the machines without winning a jackpot. As you can imagine, these jackpots can become enormous. Linked progressive machines may reside in the same room, same building, anywhere within a city, country or even globally. This is particularly true of Internet-based slots games.
How much can a slot machine payout? Slots are generally programmed to pay a percentage of their takings. This percentage usually sits between 85% and 98%. The greater the payout percentage, the more the machine will payout.
PLAYING TIPS
Choose a machine that advertises a high payout percentage (between 95% and 99%, if possible). These games might have a high value minimum bet.
Try to understand the machine’s payout table, particularly in relation to the amount you are betting. It would be sad to discover that your winnings would have been significantly greater had you bet a little more.
Some progressive slots only offer the jackpot prize to players that bet the maximum amount. For this reason, it is important that you understand the machine’s payout table before playing.
The amount of credit bet is not related to the likelihood of spinning a winning combination.
It can sometimes be more rewarding to bet the maximum amount allowed per line. As this option can quickly drain your funds, it might be worthwhile finding a machine that allows betting in smaller denominations: quarters, for example, as opposed to dollars.
Recognize when a jackpot (large value) has been won. Some machines will ask you to call an attendant who will organize payment to you. Never handle or walk away from a machine that has just produced a jackpot winning. Call the attendant or have someone call him/her for you while you wait at the machine.
If you play slots at the same establishment and on a regular basis, try to take note of which machines seem to be paying out more often. If there are any such machines around, you might want to consider playing one at some point. Some of these machines might be positioned in places that are more likely to be noticed. This is so as to attract prospective players.
If you’ve played a particular machine for a while and have had little success, you might like to try another machine. You never know: your luck just might change.
Find out if the venue you intend to play at offers other incentives, such as points, meals, accommodation, etc, that goes with your game play. This however doesn’t mean that you should play purely for these secondary benefits.
Try to recognize when your luck may have changed. There are many examples of people winning significantly then “getting greedy”, so to speak, and losing everything.
Make sure you empty the machine of your credit prior to leaving it. Each year, people accidentally abandon machines that still have their credit inside.
Before playing, decide how much you are comfortable losing. If you have played and lost this amount, you will know when to leave.
Don’t bet more than you can afford to lose and remember to always have fun

Slot Machines Secrets - The truth about slot mathematics
Typical different parts of the games nowadays include the following features: line wins, scatters, holds and nudges, free spins, gambles, bonus games… Some of these features are totally random and the player has no way to influence the outcome. The spin of the reels, for example, is a random event and thus players cannot influence any line or scatter wins. However, in some features (like Hi-Lo gambles and some bonus games) the player has an input in the game. When this is the case, the industry uses the optimal strategy to play the game when building the model. This means that the percentage return advertised for the machine has been calculated assuming the optimal strategy is used all the time while playing the game. Therefore, if a player does not make the optimal decisions when playing the game he would be underachieving, in other words, he would be losing more money than he should lose. For regular punters, understanding the mathematics of the games is vital to have a bit of control.

Aztec’s Treasure Slot Machine
With Aztec’s Treasure you can have fun or really go for the big jackpot. There are 20 lines on this progressive slot machine. Before spinning, you can select how many lines to play-as low as one line. If you’re not going to play all 20 lines, which is the machine’s default position, you need to know that you must play them in sequential order.
So, if you wanted to play just three lines, you’d be playing line one, two and three. You can’t do them out of order, like four, six and eight. There are ten lines on each side of the machine. To give you an example, line one is in the 6th position on the left, while line two is on the second position on the left. Line three is on the 9th position on the left and so on. All numbers 10 and under are on the left, while all numbers 11-20 are on the right.
Aztec’s Treasure has the following betting denominations: 1 cent, 2 cents, nickel, quarter, 50 cents, one dollar and five dollars. So, you can bet up to $100 per spin if you want.
This progressive slot machine also has an auto play feature. While I don’t consider this fun, you might. Just put your money in, click on auto play and kick back until you want to stop. The game will keep playing until you run out of money or you stop it. I can just imagine clicking this feature with $500 in the machine, getting a phone call, forgetting about the machine and coming back to see $0.
Aztec’s Treasure has multiple bonuses throughout the game. The Aztec King shows up on Reels 2, 3 and 4. He’s like a wild symbol. Except for Idols, he substitutes as any symbol. The Idols appear here and there.
The Jackpot is random and it can be won at the end of each spin. It doesn’t matter what denomination you are playing either. It’s a nice little twist. If you’re looking for huge jackpots ($50,000+), this isn’t your slot machine. But, if you want the ability to pick up $1,000 or so at the end of any spin, Aztec’s Treasure will be a great time for you.
This slot machine has many ways to win-especially with all 20 lines going. Therefore, the maximum you can win is 40,000 times you wager per line. So, if you’re playing 25 cents per line, you can win up to $10,000 on any one spin.
Aztec’s Treasure is a fun machine. Give it a spin sometime.

Tight Slots Machines Vs. Loose Slots Machines
In the U.S., gaming regulatory agencies in various jurisdictions publish what is known as the casino ‘win’ on various slot machines. The casino win is the percentage of money deposited in the slot machines retained by the casino as profit (although it is not really profit, since it does not include rent, electric costs, employee salaries, and other costs of doing business . Some agencies identify the individual casinos, while others only name the specific regions. By turning these numbers around, you can identify the ‘payback percentage,’ or the percentage of money returned to the player for the money played.
For instance, if a casino ‘win’ is 10 percent, the payback percentage is 90 percent; if the casino win is 12 percent, the payback percentage is 88 percent, and so on.
Most jurisdictions have a minimum payback percentage that every machine must reach. Most machines pay back much more than the minimum percentage, however, since competition forces them to try to retain customers through higher paybacks.
Tight machines, on the other hand, are those that don’t pay out as frequently as other machines.
The exact definition of ‘loose’ and ‘tight’ is very subjective. One machine may be loose for a short amount of time for a particular player, and tight during a different period for another player.
Casinos set the win percentage of each machine as a function of the win percentage for the entire casino. Stated elementally, if a casino wants to establish a 10 percent win percentage on its 200 slot machines, it could set 100 for a 15 percent win percentage, and the other 100 machines for a five percent win percentage. Over the long run, therefore, the machines will produce an overall 10 percent win. Of course, the machines are more likely to be set at graduated percentages so that each machine may be no more than two or three percent different from another. And the win percentage will be balanced for play, since some machines get played more than others because of their locations or style.
In most cases, casinos will direct the manufacturers of the slot machines to install the computer chip that establishes the payback percentage for that particular machine. Only rarely will the casino adjust the payback percentage while the machine is already installed on the casino floor.
But remember, even if you could identify the exact payback percentage of a particular machine, there is no guarantee that you would win over the short term. The payback percentage is programmed into the machine to be effective over thousands and millions of plays. A machine that pays back 100 percent, for instance, would simply allow the player to break even over the long run. Depending upon the machine’s program, it might pay back a large jackpot once, while limiting other paybacks to small, infrequent hits. So you can never tell when a machine is ready to pay off. Should the machine not pay off for several hours, there is no guarantee that it will begin to pay off any time soon.
The payback percentage of machines generally increases with the denomination. Five-cent machines usually carry the worst payback for the player, with the $1 and above machines giving the players the best chance. The reason for this is that it takes many nickels for the casino to make a substantial profit, while it takes only a few dollars to earn a comparable amount. The casino also wants to encourage higher denomination players to play more dollars, and a higher payback percentage will help to accomplish that goal.
Even with a high payback percentage, however, the casino advantage will eventually grind down even the best player. The higher the payback percentage, the longer you can play, and the better chance you have of hitting a jackpot that will make you a winner. Even the difference of a few percentage points in the payback percentage can make a big difference. Stretching your money is the key to becoming a winner.
