Volumes have been stated on this topic, and the conflict and discourse about where the "hot" slots are positioned in the casino are still raging – sixty yrs after slot machines were 1st placed in gambling dens.

The classic rule is that the better slot machines were put just inside the door of the casino; so that casino fanatics walking by would be able to see jackpot winners … be tempted to come unto the gaming floor and play. Our assurance is that this is definitely no longer true.

Almost all of the large casinos nowadays are mammoth complexes … it’s no longer possible to see inside from the sidewalk, so there’s no longer a reason to place the ‘loose’ slot games close to any doorways.

An additional traditional rule is that loose slot machine games are located on the major aisles in the casinos, again so that more folks could see winning jackpots and be influenced to play. Importantly however, we find that this also is no longer a universal rule.

What casinos found over the years is that people walking down the busy aisles were frequently on the way to somewhere else. If they played the slots at all, they would simply put in their loose change because they happened to be walking by. Win or lose, they would very often not stop to keep playing. And the last thing a casino wants is for someone to win a jackpot by playing only a few coins and then not stay to put it all back in!

In recent times, casinos are constantly changing their philosophy about where to place the loose slot machine games.

Casino One Armed Bandits

Modern casino slot machine games are controlled by computer software, and the win %s are pre-programmed into the software.

Casino slot machine games have Random Number Generators which are continuously generating combinations, even when the game is not currently being played.

Running side by side with the random # generator of the casino one-armed bandit is the payout rate per cent.

The pay out % controls how much the one-armed bandit will payout, for eg the pay % could be 90%, which means the slot machine will payout 90% of all the bets played, and the casino gets to keep 10 percent.

This does not mean that each time you bet 10 credits you will receive 9 in return – where’s the fun … excitement in that? Instead, the casino slot machine game will not pay out for a little while, and then suddenly go on a hot streak and you might draw the big pot prize.

The pay out %s usually will vary between the a variety of games and just a few of the highly popular casinos, e.g. Golden Online Casino, which puts forth a pay out of up to ninety-five percent!

Hence, in essence, the slot machine takes all the funds played into it and pays it out to several fortunate winners. The casino only gets to keep a considerably low % of all the wagers allocated.

The casino slot software controls each part of the machine, from the flickering lights to the rolling of the reels.

When you hit spin on the one-armed bandit, a combination is put together by the RNG which corresponds to the pictures on the reel.
