    Lol nobody even watched the video, they see the title and comment immediately. For instance @ 4:47 he says "There is NO winning slot machine system". Yet everyone's saying this video is bull.
    Its informative, chill out folks.
    Also, its completely right, there is no such thing as a strategy for playing slots (Other than trying to lose less and playing slower). Every spin is its own event and has no effect on future outcomes. If you poured 900 bucks into a slot then the next person sits at that slot machine hits a jackpot, guess what, it wasn't yours. I can go on forever about RNG and advantages and all that but this guys got it covered.
    Great video by the way!

    I'm a casino tech for about 10 casinos. He nailed it, they're computers designed to pay out less than they collect in the long run. That doesn't mean that you can't hit it once and make a huge profit. It means that the longer you stay there, the more you conform to the ~90% payout rate. The entire goal of the casino is to keep you playing, and take ~10% of your money. They'll even give you free drinks, just keep playing that machine.

      Your absolute best bet is to play live poker against REAL opponents. You can win in the long run, but it takes an enormous amount of discipline. Why? ---> Standard Deviation. You will have losing days that will make you want to pull your hair out. This can lead to poor play unless you are highly disciplined and understand statistics
      Your best "Gambling" bet is Blackjack. If you can count card (+1,-1), you can actually beat it. But trust me - you WILL get caught.

  • @RPSimms
    @RPSimms Год назад +13

    I've won pretty consistently on slots because I play for a few hands, if I get nothing, I move on. When I win a nice amount, I cash out and move on to the next machine. The trick is to play the highest odds and cash out if you win something decent. Thinking you'll win the big pot is a suckers game and will cause you to lose whatever you have won. I've won a little here and a little there and at the end of the day it amounts to a nice amount. It's all random, so luck is the key factor, but if you keep going after a big win, you'll probably end up losing it all. Just saying…

    @robj7481 4 года назад +7

    As a designer of many gaming approved slot machines, I can tell you that there are things you didn’t mention.
    Some machines do not use an RNG for stopping. Scientific Games (formerly WMS) got sued by IGT for violating the Telnaes Patent which uses an RNG on a “virtual reel”. Instead, WMS used an RNG to determine the pay and stops the reels according to the desired payout.
    The concept of a “virtual reel” or “virtual paytable” makes any “near miss” deceptive. In the case of a mechanical slot game, the physical reel is 22 or 25 stops, but the virtual reel can be as high as 500 stops per reel. This makes the Megabucks jackpot possible.
    It’s the deceptive electronic equivalent of the mechanical slot days when casinos filed extra notches in the reel drum cam to reduce the chances of stopping on a symbol.

  • @prisonpiece1852

    I know for a FACT that casinos DO tighten up machines that pay out too much.
    There was a machine at Auga Caliente in Palm Springs that paid out consistently for several months. Then suddenly...it stopped paying out period.
    The casino tightened up the machine to hardly ever pay out, where as at first...for a time..it was paying out on a regular basis.

    You can't go into a casino and expect to win millions of dollars. It's tough enough to win $5.00. Set your limit, and plan to leave when you've lost half of that and try to get a free drink. Enjoy yourself, have a good time with friends. Watch a game on the surrounding tv's and get a bite to eat or see a show. It's that simple!

      whenever you are tempted to goto a casino, take the money you planned to spend and put it in an envelope and forget about it.
      In the long run you will have beaten the odds at the casino, you would have been payed back 100% every time - you CANT LOSE
      At the end of the year, take the envelope out and say JACKPOT! look at all the money I WON! Then go buy yourself something nice

    The sure bet to win is to not play slots in the first place. Casinos are a for profit business not a charity. Anything you win is an investment by the casino to reinforce addictive behavior (impulsive behavior) such as prioritizing the immediate payoff instead of worrying if you have enough money to pay your bills because that dopamine hit is powerful.

    • @bigmoney66b
      @bigmoney66b 4 года назад +1

      That's why first and foremost people must consider this an entertainment and not a stream of income. Some people just test their luck, and it pays off, but most people will lose. Of curse you have people coming in with huge bankrolls and playing low denom machines like quarter machines, i.e. $5k-$10k bankroll, so they are putting the machine through far more spin trials than someone playing a few rounds. That won't change odds, but technically you are using more trials. Imagine if you had a bag with mostly red balls and some white ones, and you were to pick ONCE. Imagine you were asked to pick 1000 times, odds are eventually you might pick the white ones. But do most people have large bankrolls, nope, and even with a large bankroll there is no guarantee, and you are likely to lose it all, as you keep playing anyway. So your best bet is NOT to play machines, SAVE your money instead and build a nest egg, even with market conditions, in the long run you will profit.....With a slot machine you WILL lose, and your odds of being LUCKY and hitting that big jackpot are slim - Even if you do, calculate all that you have gambled before, how many can say that they are in profit ? Thank about it.....Statistically majority of players are at a loss. So all those bogus youtubers who shill casinos, and flash their jackpots, are they telling you how much they spent TOTAL all sessions combined ? Not really, they list tell you how much they spent in their CURRENT session!!!
      If you are going for fun times and testing your luck that's fine, you might hit big and go out in profit, BUT it's when it turns into an addiction and people use machines as a stream of income that things become problematic.... If you go to casinos you will see some frequent players, the same ones, you see them day and night spending money like they do not know what to do with it, probably spending their 401k and all life savings down the fucking machines.

    I call BS on near misses not being allowed to be programmed in. How many times have you seen the big jackpot symbols line up below or above the pay line? I have seen this MANY times. If it really was not allowed, this would have the same odds as landing on the pay line. Totally programmed in. No doubt about it.

    • @DproximaSlots
      @DproximaSlots 9 лет назад +4

      Certain games have their reels weighted - they do this to make the math work. Three reel slots for example. Some video slots are weighted too but the actually math - the RNG pull - does work for either type of game. The teases you speak of might have to do with the limited amount of stops on a three reel game - it's common for progressive symbols or multipliers to land right above or below the Payline only because the blank or other symbol that does land on the Payline is weighted to land more frequently.

    • @chrislongley
      @chrislongley 9 лет назад +1

      @DproximaSlots 9 лет назад +2

      Chris Longley
      Humans are amazing at detecting patterns and if there are three or four of the same in a row we assume that is is programmed. The easier explanation is that randomness sometimes delivers streaks that appear predetermined. Slots are amazingly random - simple math and programming dictates this. I've had the privilege of speaking with several of the mathematicians from WMS and Aristocrat. These games are highly tested and regulated and outcomes are nothing but random.

    In 2011, I played max bet on a quarter slot machine and I kept winning.
    Every friday after work, I'd go and kept winning $300, $600, $900, $1200 jackpots. It was paying out so much, and so frequently,
    I really thought there was something wrong with this machine. So I kept going back every friday for a whole year in 2011. I was $5000 ahead by the end of 2011.
    Suddenly, everything changed. No more jackpots over $200 ever at all. After a year of hitting big jackpots over and over all year long on the same machine,
    there suddenly were no more jackpots over $200 at all...EVER.
    I was playing with house money, so I kept going back til the whole $5000 was gone and then some.
    So don't tell me they don't 'RESET' the payout on these machines.
    They do.

    I have really paid close attention to the slot machines, or pokie machines we call them here in Australia, it always seems that when you happen to get lucky on these machines and win a large amount of money , it seems as though if you played on the chances of winning anymore is very slim. This is why if I make a profit from what cash I use in a particular machine, I then collect my winnings and move away , I do believe that if the machine does win you a reasonable amount of money then it won't furthermore continue to keep winning on the same machine. It almost seems that the machine has a payout for a winner that there may well be some type of electronic device mechanism that acts like some kind of sensor that it locks up for sometime a while that perhaps won't allow the machine to keep the machine on any continued winning momentum role that it was on before any winnings , therefore it sucks people into continue to persist with the particular machine and retrieve the money back into the machine so it's not at a loss. It is something I have always noticed when in the past played on after a good win and also watched many win up to almost 7 or $800 and by the time they could have left 800 profited , they play on until they have lost the entire amount they 1st initially had won. I'm probably wrong but I see it so many times

    • @NoellaNix
      @NoellaNix 2 года назад +6

      so true, I actually won tonight and tbh i win quite often, 2 majors within 10 minutes, 2 different machines.. I usually don't spend more than $30 in any machine, if it doesn't give me a feature i move onto the next, usually i wont play anything when the major is below $580 (means it payed out) I also never bet higher than $1.50 lines. Tonight I went in with $40 and alked out with $1.7k. I also set a budget, very strict and dont spend more than $80 in one night and only go once per month at the most. I have stuck by this rule for 15 years and never really lost more than $50. Some people just sit there feeding the machine money thinking that the more the put in the more it will pay out but thats not how it works. Another good trick is to watch someone sit down, if they dont get a feature and walk away, ill sit down and usually get the feature shortly after, saves me from putting my own money in to try get the feature first.

      As somebody who is learning to work in the pokie area of a pub here in Aus, it is clear to me from the insanely tough fines and legislation that no such thing occurs. The chips are all locked away behind tamper proof seals. These are checked by auditors from olgr. Huge fines if anything isn’t up to code. It wouldn’t be worth it for a venue to play around with these chips. If there was a kind of conspiracy it’s government level and I don’t see the incentive for a government to increase the profits of a pub at the detriment of gamblers. Hope that helps!

She told me employees are not allowed to gamble at the casinos they work at because they become aware of the "hot" machines which were always being moved around to different locations within the casino, so she would get together with other employees from neighboring casinos and they would share the location of the hot machines with each other.
    On her days off she would go to one of those hot machines she was tipped off about and she would fearlessly pump up to $2000 into the machine knowing confidently that the machine was set to pay her $6000. She was bringing home an extra $3000 to $5000 every week!!! As long as they were smart and didn't get greedy the casinos were none the wiser.

If you are running low on money and you think you can go to the casino to make some extra money the chance are 90 percent against you of doing so. Never go into a casino and play with money you can not afford to lose. I would recommend if you go take you credit cards out and do not take them with you and only take the cash you plan on losing.

    Interesting. The video highlights the common fallacies associated with slot machines. I remember taking my wife to a casino and we played the slots for a little while, but she was more fascinated watching other gamblers losing their money, especially on the roulette table, which is the fastest way to lose money I know!
    Fortunately I'm blessed in being the unluckiest person when it comes to gambling. If there was a two horse race my money would be on the one with three legs. So, I don't gamble unless it is with matchsticks or buttons! It is just as much fun. I suggest anyone hooked on slots should buy their own machine and treat it as a piggy bank to save up for things they really need.

After I got paid I gave my friend $20 and said "play this machine". He won $3000 on the third pull. A few weeks later I saw the casino techs take that machine apart. It no longer pays out. For the last two years I periodically watch other people play this machine and they get no hits. My own strategy is to move to another machine if there are no hits.

      6:50 The "new" technology he mentions is now very common. Almost all slot machines 'call home' for their payout rates. It makes for easier bookkeeping for the casinos along with more control. That said, rates are still rarely changed and a casino, at least where I live, MUST tell you the payout rate of a machine when asked.

    • @TheJackpotGents

      Casinos are not rigged to cheat you. They simply pay you less than the true odds on all of your bets and that's how they make their money. And, by the way, casinos are one of the most highly regulated industries in the world. All the casinos want you to do is to continue to play because if you do that long enough you will end up a loser. It's just a simple matter of mathematics. There are some games where the player can get an advantage, such as blackjack and video poker, but most people don't have the bankroll, nor the knowledge needed to beat those games.

      On a three reel machine there is the chance of six near misses. (eight on four reel) for a possible win. So it might appear there are many more near misses than actual wins - only because there is.
