Many Will Try, Few Will Win
Many people think that the longer they play the slot machines the
higher their chance of winning because at some point the machine has
to hit. This is true, and it isn’t. What is true is that the longer
you play, the more you will ultimately lose. You could conceivably go
all day long and play the slot machines and not win a dime. The guy
next to you could come up, drop some money in and walk away a
millionaire.
Slot machines are the only truly random act in this world – there is
no rhyme or reason as to when they will hit, and there is no such
thing as hot and cold slot machines. If you are playing the slot
machines, you have to do it for fun, because to do it for money will
only make you crazy.
There are those who will try and sell you slot machine winning tips,
but they are just cheating you out of more money. There are no systems
that will guarantee you a win, because slot machines can hit as often
or not as they want.
The only thing that a slot machine will guarantee you is that at some
point it will pay out. It has what is called a RNG or random number
generator, that is set to tell the slot machine how often it will pay
out and how much. Even when the slot machine is not even being played,
the RNG is running 200 million combinations a second. Once you pull
the handle, your result is fixed. So no matter how much you play, you
have no guarantee of winning, just a guarantee of spending more and
more money.
