Slot Machine Strategies: Testing Slot Machines for Profitability

Slot Machine Strategy Tutorial

You are reading lessons on slot machine strategies. In this particular slot machine approach, you will play in the slots with the best returns as determined by a test. You will play using a betting structure to protect from big losses and help you win more.

Of course, there is no sure way to find out just which slot machines are profitable and which aren't. The test below is the most you can do to have an idea. It will not always work. But nothing in gambling is guaranteed.

We hope you find these slot machine strategies useful. Please refer to the start of this tutorial for complete instructions.

Slots Rule- Test the slot machines in a casino to measure their profitability.

A good slot machine strategist will not play in unprofitable slots. So your next task is to figure out which machines pay and which don't. You will only play in the slots that give the best returns.

Pick five slot machines in the casino you are in. Divide your session bankroll equally among them. So that's 40 / 5 = 8. You will have 8 coins to play per machine.

Now test each slot machine with the 8 coins allotted to it. After each test, note down how much you played in it, the return and the net profit/loss. Do this with all the five slots you test.

For example:

Machine Coins Played Coins Left Net Profit/Loss

1 8 5 -3 2 8 12 +4 3 8 8 0 4 8 3 -5 5 8 17 +9

You can see that after 8 plays on each slot machine, slots 5 looks most rewarding, and slots 4 the least rewarding.

Slots 2 is also profitable, but the return is too small. If a machine gives a low return (like 6 coins or less), it should be dropped along with those machines that give negative results.

If, based on these rules, no machine qualifies, you can repeat the test, removing all slots that produced negative results. If no machine still qualifies after the second test, you must not play slots in the casino.

Yes, you read that right: If none of the slots look good in the house, you must not play slots there. These machines are not created equal. Casinos make some return more than others. You want to get the most out of the smallest investment. You must not give the casino the slightest chance of taking your money if you can help it. So if no machine meets the criteria, you will not play. There will always be other slots to play.
