Slot machines are governed by random number generators and are therefore “programmed” to obtain random results. This means that the possibility of a slot machine being in a winning or losing period is exactly the same, the odds remain constant. So don’t think that fueling a slot machine with large sums of money will help you win or that if you play and win you will keep winning. There is no such thing as a period of luck or bad luck when it comes to slot machines.
Myth # 2:
You Can’t Win Real Money At Online Slots
This is a very well-known misconception, but it is totally false. Not only can online slots players win a lot of money, they can even win even more, with online slots being more generous than slot machines at land-based casinos.
Myth # 3:
Casinos Launch New Machines To Give Players More Variety
While this is partially true, the real reason casinos offer a wide variety of slots is because players are generally fickle and look for a new slot when they lose. Regularly showcasing new machines is a great way to help players keep playing.
Myth # 4:
‘Almost’ Victory Means Victory Will Soon Fall
This is not true. Since each round is unrelated to the others, a near victory is nothing more than a near victory. In fact, there really is no way of knowing when a slot machine is going to pay off.
Myth # 5:
Big Players Always Win The Progressive Jackpot
This myth takes root in the past, when online casinos were dominated by giants such as Microgaming and Playtech. Their machines had a condition that allowed players who wagered the maximum to win the biggest jackpot. It is because of this “belief” that the idea that the biggest high rollers will win the biggest jackpots began to spread. Today we have a universal rule: play on one machine and you will have the same chances of hitting the jackpot as other players with other bets.
This rule applies to most modern slot machines. This is why there is no need to gamble with the maximum bet rate all the time. Even if the machine forces you to play at the maximum bet rate in order to win the jackpot, it is best to just pass it up. The chance of winning the jackpot is very close to zero. The average gamer should focus on making a profit on their bankroll instead of running the huge jackpot to become a multimillionaire.
