How to Beat the Slots

A popular question that always comes up, especially among new online gamblers is: How do I beat the slot machines? There is no straightforward answer to this, and I’ll give you the long and the short of it.

If you’re asking: “Is there a system available out there that can ensure me 100% success at the slot machines time and time again?”, the answer would most definitely be no. After all, logically speaking, if there was such as a system, I certainly wouldn’t be here dishing out the information for free, while online casinos would have filed for bankruptcy a long time ago.

If you are asking, however, if there are ways to ensure that your bankroll doesn’t get depleted after 10 minutes at the slot machines and that you can come out of a significant number of sessions while still ahead, then the answer is definitely yes.

Now onto the ‘how’.

To beat the slots, you first have to understand how slot machines work. After all, knowledge is power and the more you know, the better your chances of picking machines that work well for you and your bankroll. At the very least, you should understand that slot machines are regulated by electronic Random Number Generators that change the outcome of the game a few thousand times every second.

Next, learn how to examine the pay table of slot games carefully. Most online casinos that use good software such as River Belle Casino and Platinum Play offer slot games with clear pay tables that are easy to understand. If in doubt, contact the friendly customer support at these sites for a clear explanation. Understanding pay tables will help you decide how many coins to wager in order to put yourself in line to win big sums of money.

Next, develop a slots strategy that works for you. By now you understand that slots is a game that is based on chance alone, and no amount of ‘skills’ will change the outcome of the game. However, you can develop good playing habits that could be just as important as developing skills in games such as blackjack.

Some slots experts urge players to develop a strategy called ‘hit and run’. This means that you can maximize your winnings by coming out ahead on a slot machine and then quitting while you’re STILL ahead. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that just because the machine is ‘hot’, your lucky streak will continue indefinitely. It won’t.

The final word of advice I can give you is to set yourself a realistic budget and stick to it. When you reach that limit, stop playing so that you’ll have money over to play the next day, or whenever your next slot session is scheduled for. In this way, you’ll slowly build up your bankroll so that you can play for higher stakes without risking your entire sum, and put yourself in line to win bigger sums as well.
