Each time you pull the lever, the machine fixes upon a new number, which it turn determines the symbols you end up with: you have an equal chance of winning the jackpot and hitting the big money every time you play.
No amount of incantations, lucky rituals, or prayer will be able to bend it to your will. The only way to win is to sit back, relax and cool off with a cigar. Let the heat die down, become as cool as the computer is in its calculations and play again.
Although there’s no such thing as a hot or cold machine in terms of winning the jackpot, or at least winning big, there are, as noted above, machines with higher frequencies, that is, the frequency with which it pays-out to you.
Players often label machines that don’t regularly spit out cash as ‘tight’ and similarly high frequency machines are known as ‘loose slots’.
Ideally, you’ll find a machine with a high frequency and a high-payback, but there’s no real way you can determine its payback rate.
However, by trying various machines and casinos, you’ll be able to work out which machines have higher frequencies of payouts.
Many players will go around the floor checking machines, trying to figure out which are regular in their payouts. That is, if they’re patient types
