Slot Machine Odds and Payouts
The odds and payout percentages vary from slot machine to slot machine and casino to casino. The payouts are sometimes listed above the reels of the game but sometimes they are not listed and the player will simply work it out from the payout amount when they win. It doesnt actually matter too much what the payouts are for each different win because there is no skill or decision making involved so at no time does one type of win have to be selected over the other, as is often the case in fruit machines.
When the odds are listed they are normally listed as a number and a multiplied by symbol. This because most slot machines will allow the player to change the stakes therefore it is not plausible to have set win amounts listed. Instead the player simply wins his stake multiplied by the number designated to each different win type.
The payout for each slot machine is not listed simply because there are too many slots around for each payout percentage to be listed. It varies from casino to casino and slot machine to slot machine but the payout percentage is usually between 94% and 97%. Due to the fact that slot machines require no skill most players are going to lose out in the long run. The best strategy is to usually bet small and stick to the slot machines that are most enjoyable to play.
