First of all, we must be clear about what our intentions are when playing slot machines since there are many types of machines. If we want to play for a long time, we must play certain machines, and if we want to win big prizes, we must choose another type of slot. What we can do to see what type of machine is closer to our expectations in this game is to play for free at the many online casinos that offer free slot machines.
Another technique that we can use to see what type of slots we have chosen is to play several spins and see how many times a winning combination comes out. If, for example, a small prize comes out in 3 out of 5 spins, this slot will allow us to play for a long time, without having to bet large amounts of money.
In the case of verifying that, to get a prize, we had to make more than 10 plays, we will notice that, although the prizes are more important, we have had to invest more money to achieve that prize. If we lost money and folded, chances are we haven't been playing this machine that long. But those slots are the ones that leave the most money in fewer plays.
So, the rule would be: the higher the frequency of combinations, the fewer prizes and more playing time; the less frequency of combinations, the higher the prizes and less playing time. What we have to keep in mind is that this rule is common, but it is not fulfilled in 100% of cases.
We must also take into account that most slots offer bonuses, that is, extra games that are played independently, and that also allows us to win prizes. With regard to jackpots or progressive jackpots, we probably have to bet an amount greater than the minimum of the slot machine to be able to participate in this prize.
Before playing slot machines, it would be good if we took into account some tips that will help us when betting, so as not to make mistakes that are commonly made due to lack of information. First of all, we must read the instructions that are generally found on the front of the slots.
In online slot machines, we can also find information about the machine we want to play on since it will appear on the screen as soon as we select one. In all high RTP slots (real or online), the more pay lines there are, the higher the bet we will have to make in order to win big prizes.
To know what type of bets can be made, we will have to read, as we have said before, the instructions for the slot machines in which we are playing. In the case in which we want to make a maximum bet, we must press the button that says "maximum bet" (Bat Max), and if we do not want to bet the maximum, we will have to bet by pressing the "Bet One" button, in which we will bet 1 credit for each time we press the button.
