Introduction

Though slot machines are not considered to be a high-yielding game at the casino, it’s still a people’s favourite because of its simple rules and high entertainment value that keeps players glued to the machine. If you wish to maximize your next visit to the slot machine, keep on reading to equip yourself with effective slot machine strategies.

 

1. Goal-setting

Before you step into the casino, let’s first decide on the main goal for your visit today – are you here for the entertainment value, perhaps to spend some fun time, or to earn some fast cash? For example, are you looking for slots that cost just £5 or are you willing to pay a higher deposit? This step is crucial because how you prioritize the respective goals– entertainment value, playtime, and profit – will influence the rest of the strategies moving forward. Hence, only continue with the next step after setting your goals.

2. Deciding on bankroll budget

Once the goals are in place, the next thing you need to set is the amount of cash you are willing to spend. To begin the budgeting process, you will first need to determine how much cash you can afford to lose to the slot machine. Truth be told, no one likes losing money but it is inevitable at the casino. Alternatively, you can treat this money spent as a payment for the entertainment value that the slot machine provides.

Next, consider how long you intend to stay to play at the casino then divide the budget by the duration of your expected stay. For example, if your bankroll budget is $100 and you intend on playing for approximately five hours, your loss should not exceed $20 per hour. By calculating the maximum amount of loss per hour, keeps you on track and prevents overspending.

Once the budgeting is done, set a timer as you play the machine. If you are short of money before the hour is up, you can either take a short break until the next hour begins or try switching to another machine with a lower cost.

3. Handling winnings

It is a common sight to see players winning an adequate amount at the slots but losing all of it again before leaving the casino. To prevent this, one should always prepare a plan to handle your winnings. There is no golden plan to handle winnings, so we encourage you to follow your heart. However, if you are in a dilemma, do consider the following options:

  • Banking in all the payouts
  • Setting a win limit (e.g. double of the bankroll) and stop playing after reaching the limit
  • Banking half of the profits while continuing to play with the remaining half

4. Picking casinos

If you are heading to places like Las Vegas where numerous casinos compete for customers, we encourage you to research which casino offers the best odds. While most casinos tend to guarantee a 90 to 95 per cent payout rate for their slot machines, you can still choose to visit the casino with the best odds. However, do take note that the published odds apply to all slot machines available at the casino but the payout rate for each machine is usually not accessible.

5. Check out the Casino benefits 

At locations where the competitions between casinos are tight, there are often many types of benefits and rewards available to attract players like yourself. Do research on the various promotions available to use them to your advantage.

Casinos may offer a no-deposit bonus, where players can play the games for free and keep the winnings. Others offer a deposit bonus where they match the amount you convert into chips.

Some casinos even offer slot cards, where it tracks your activity in the casino to curate special offers for you according to the type of activity you do. The special offers come in various forms like cashback and free food. Slot cards are free-of-charge, so we strongly encourage players to extend the payout by maximizing the wide range of promotions and bonuses.

6. Pick the right slot machine

Before we start the selection process, it is imperative to understand that though we are unaware of each machine’s odds of winning, we can control the payout level for the machines. Moreover, the general winning strategy will be to place the maximum bet when playing. This is because most casinos tend to offer bigger prizes to players who bet the max.

Many slot machines differ in the denomination offered. The denominators often come in penny slots, 5-cent slots, dollar slots, and more. While dollar slots offer a bigger payout, it comes with more risk and consequently uses up the bankroll budget at a faster speed. Meanwhile, penny slots are safer in that sense but it’s difficult to win big. Therefore, penny slots are recommended for players who value entertainment over payouts.

Similar to the denominations, slot machines vary in their entertainment aspects as well. Simpler slot machines are known to have a higher payout but they pale in comparison to the fancier ones when talking about fun. So before you head straight to the machines decorated with exciting bells and stunning lights, check in with yourself if an exciting machine suits the objective of your visit.

Our final advice to you will be to step away from progressive slots. They are often portrayed to offer life-changing prizes but in reality, the odds are terrible. Casinos often take the funds that were initially kept for players and funnel them into the progressive jackpot. One should always remember that casinos are a business too – they will refrain from self-funding these reward funds. Therefore, we encourage players to inform themselves with each slot machines’ respective payouts and go for machines that offer moderate jackpots with many mid-value prizes.

Conclusion

Slots, by essence, are a game of luck. But whether you make an informed decision about the casino and slot machine of your choice plays a significant part in your win rate at the casino. Hence, we assure you that following these six steps on your next trip at the casino will greatly boost your experience there – whether you are there for the fun, entertainment, or the money.
