Slots Basics
You probably already know that slots aren’t the most skillful of casinos games. It’s the simplest gambling game you will find and, coincidentally, the most popular. Any online casino you come across will be promoting slots bonuses, tournaments or new games front and center on the landing page. Therefore, there are some basics to know about slots before jumping right in.
There are different types of slots but the most common is the 5-reel, multi-line with a bonus. On this type, you can play the entire reel instead of fixed lines like 3-reel, 1-payline slots. Some slots allow you to play up to 100 lines. A 1-reel games gives you 243 ways to play. You may think that puts the odds in your favor, but it doesn’t. Slots don’t have good odds because they are so easy.
The three symbols in the first reel pay out in any three position for a 3-reel machine. Other reels pay out just in the center line. For a 5-reel slot, symbols can appear anywhere and pay out with one or more symbols on each reel with a scatter feature. The more ways to win, the better.
The only type of bet where the house doesn’t have an overwhelming advantage in slots is the double up bonus. You always want to play this. You can play it after a win and sometimes up to five times in a row, doubling up each time for some serious cash.
The best part about slots are the jackpots. This is why you must always bet the maximum amount. If you hit a jackpot and didn’t bet the maximum, you will only win a percentage. Always check the payout percentages before playing because some offer higher ones than others. Certified online casinos are required to post payout percentages. Some online casinos have slots linked together for progressive jackpots, especially if they are a part of a group of online casinos as an affiliate. These payouts reach up into the millions of dollars.
