Slots tips and strategy
If you study the points below.... it will all become crystal clear, how you can better your session with Slot games. They may be comments and suggestions that you have heard before, however when you study these points and put them into practice you will see that Paddy only has wise words of wisdom for his players.
Paddy suggests knowing your game and your limits!
Know your game
- Play max credits: If you only play a single credit, you will win a minimal amount, no matter how good a combination of symbols you hit. If you play max credits you dramatically increase your potential payout. Playing max credits can also trigger Progressive Jackpots (if one is attached to your particular Slot machine.
- Understand pay lines: Sometimes it's not enough just to play 'max credits'. Most slot games are multi-line as well as multi-reel. This means that even if you select 'max credits' when betting you may only win if you hit the magic symbol selection on 1 line. Choosing 'max lines' will ensure that if a winning combination appears no matter which line it appears on that you will reap the rewards. This strategy will cost you more but when you win you'll be glad that you applied this strategy.
- Understand the bonus rounds: Many casino slot games have different types of bonus rounds, these range from; free spins, double bonus awards, bonus multipliers and many other variations. Study the bonus rounds as these are crucial to the game and playing these in a smart way can significantly increase your wins. A bonus round can be great and can see a player multiply their bonus by up to X50 but be careful, losing the bonus round in some slot games can mean that you lose your entire winnings and not just the bonus multiplier.
- Know the Rules: Read the pay table and all instructions that accompany your chosen slot game. If you don't understand everything correctly, contact our support team. It is your responsibility to know the rules concerning the number of credits or lines needed to play in order to collect maximum payout. Should you line up the jackpot symbols without having met the requirements, you won?t get the payout that you had been dreaming of!
Know your limits
- Again, understanding your denomination can assist in what you want to wager. Decide on the amount wish to wager on each spin and choose your denomination accordingly. Remember the max bet!
- Money Management: Set a loss limit on your bankroll for both your entire trip and for each individual playing session. Divide your gambling money into playing sessions, discipline yourself and stick to your promise. Stop playing once you've reached a pre-determined limit. For example; if you allotted ?/50 for a session, stop playing when you've either doubled your money or lost it all. Don't get caught up in the "I need to win my money back" mentality
- Do not become a zombie: A 'zombie' is an industry term for a Slots player who sits in front of their pc in a trance and mindlessly wagers more and more money. If you feel yourself becoming a zombie, it's a good idea to get up, walk around, take a break or change to another game. Staying with the same game, especially if you feel you are out of luck, can be frustrating and lead to big losses. Move around or take breaks, but never become a zombie.
Questions and Answers
Many of our loyal slot players have asked us questions in the past to help them in their quest for the jackpot bonus or even just advice on trying to maximise their winnings. Taking the above tips into consideration, we also answer their questions such as:
- Players Question: Once a slot game pays out a big amount, should I quit playing because it won't pay out again for a long time?
- Paddy states: NO. Slots have no memory; they do not keep track of what has happened previously. All outcomes are generated by a RNG ( Random Number Generator). Results are totally random, there could be two jackpots in short order and then none for a very long time.
- Players Question: I have only a limited amount of money to spend, is it wiser to play 20p/cent slots, 1 credit at a time or would it be wiser to play the MAX on one game even if you seem to be losing it faster?
- Paddy suggests: What you should do depends on your priorities. If you want playing longevity then you should play as little as possible per spin. If you are seeking a big win then you should play as much as possible per spin. The maximum payout can only be reached when you play maximum credits and maximum pay lines for a particular denomination.
- Players Question: What is the difference between 5 and 3 reel slots... which should I play?
- Paddy's reply: 5 Reel Slots are for the real fans of online slots. A regular Classic Slot machine only has 3 reels and from 1 to 3 pay-lines. The 5 Reels Slots has from 5 and up to 25 pay-lines. Again it is personal choice; however you are more likely to win bigger on the higher reel slot games as you can select a greater number of pay lines.
- Players Question: I am here to win and win big, should I concentrate on table games or slots?
Paddy reflects on some of our bigger winners in slots and comments: Those who play slots do so for a number of reasons, entertainment value, easy to understand, however one reason stands out... no other game in a casino gives you the opportunity to turn one small bet into a life-altering win, and slots can!
