Pay table. The very first thing you need to read if you are planning to actually cash out on your game. Each machine has a table that lists the number of credits the player will receive if the symbols listed on the pay table line up on the pay line of the machine. Some symbols are wild and will pay if they are visible in any position, even if they are not on the pay line. Especially on older machines, the pay table is listed on the face of the machine, usually above and below the area containing the wheels. Most video machines display the pay table when the player presses a “pay table” button or touches “pay table” on the screen; some have the pay table listed on the cabinet as well.

Payout percentage is the second thing to know when playing your chosen machine. Most of the time reputable casinos will provide you with this information. Payout percentage is programmed into the machine and varies anywhere from 82% to 98% of money wagered by players. Your winning chances are not going to be affected buy it but the amount of jackpot will be.

Play the maximum coins or credits. Most slot machines require you to play a maximum credits or coin amount in order to qualify for winning a jackpot. Avoid disappointment later by swinging odds in your favor before you hit that spin button.

Look for a single pay line slot machine. These are usually less expensive and will provide you not only with hours of entertainment but most importantly better your chances of winning. Paying maximum credits at cheaper machines gives you more opportunities to hit the jackpot, although the payout is also not quite as high.

Collect your winnings while you can. Always remember that slot machines are a game of chance. If you hit the jackpot more then likely you will be tempted to continue playing in hopes to win more. Leave while you can, take your money – this is the time! In the long run casinos will always win against you, unless you are extremely lucky.

Money Management Strategies

These are not gambling systems but steps to help you manage your money while enjoying your game. Setting your spending limit and quitting the game once it’s reached is a valid money management strategy and should always be followed. Money management strategies are all about getting more bang for your buck and to hopefully come out on top at the end of the game.

Play Through Once. This is one of the simplest techniques. Once you have determined you spending limit and made your deposit you simply divide the total amount of deposit by the maximum bet you will be making. Once your spending limit is reached you either stop playing or change slot machine based on your results. An example would be making a $50 deposit and starting to play a slot machine with a maximum bet of $1. Once you spend the $50 dollars allotted you stop playing the machine and take your winnings or losses (hopefully, not) to the next machine.

Trailing Stop Method. Commonly used and very effective money management method while playing slots. Lets assume you made a deposit of $10 into your account, before hitting that spin button set the lowest limit at which you will stop playing - a trailing stop, let it be $5, for the sake of example. Every time you win and your credit meter increases – increase your trailing limit as well. For example, you win a few credits and your meter goes up to $12, increase your trailing limit to $7. If you lose and your losing streak continues you will never go below your limit and can easily quit, yet increasing it, as your winnings increase will keep your money safer. If you hit your limit – either quit or change the machine.
