video slot machines

It may seem that the only thing you can do when playing on the slot machines is to just put the money and spin the reels, but there is more. Before the game its important to learn from which type is the machine you will be playing on(read the machine's glass), there are 3 major types - the multiplier, the buy-a-pay and the progressive

The Multiplier - On this type, the payoff is proportionate to the played money( more money bigger payoff). except for the top jackpot. If you play one coin, but the machine accepts maximum three coins, then three bars pay back ten, with two coins the three bars pay 20 and for the maximum (3 coins) 30. But if you have three sevens, then they will pay back 500 for one coin, 1 000 for two and 10 000 for 3 coins. So it will be better to play the the maximum allowed coins

The buy-a-pay - on slot machine type, every played coin "buys" a set of symbol or a payout line. The first coin may allow you to win from the cherry combination only, while with the second you can win from the bars too, and with the third coin from the sevens

The progressive - when playing on this type its again wise to play the maximum allowed coins. If you hit the jackpot then the payoff will be a percentage of each played coin, and not only from the machine you are playing on, but from all of the linked machines(the progressive slot machines are linked electronically to other machines, thus making the jackpot bigger). But while the jackpot is bigger you can't win it if you don't play with the maximum coins and usually the other payouts are smaller.

If you have to play with fewer coins, play on the multiplier type, because the difference between the payouts while playing with maximum or minimum coins is relatively small. The best strategy is to find a machine, on which you can play the maximum and also stay in your budget.
