Slot Machines Pay Back Based on Wager

Some people do not realize that all slot machines are not created the same. In fact, depending on which slot machine you play, you could get a higher or lower pay back. Some people think that if they play the penny slots as compared to the $100 slot machines, that they are getting the same amount back – not so.

In fact, the higher the denomination slot machine, the more it pays back. It goes up from penny, with nickel being better than penny, quarters paying back more than nickels, and so on and so forth. If you start putting in the big bucks like the $25 or $100 slot machines, then you will start to see the highest paybacks of all.

Now, that is not to say that the slot machines pay back better than the table games, for that is a whole other ball of wax – for craps and cards, etc. will pay more based on the strategy and how good of a player you are. For slot machines, it doesn’t matter how you play, for they are the great equalizer. The person sitting next to you has the same chance at that 92% payback as you do.

As with anything in a casino, these are not hard and fast rules, and you will find exceptions to them. But for the most part, if you want to see more of your money back from the slot machine, you have to put more money in.
