Playing Online Slots: What you need to know

[pirateglenn]

I have a few "favourite slots" that i stick to - usually high volatility ones as i have had some amazing payouts on those in recent years, key to it all is dont chase losses - have a roll and stick to that which can be easier said than done sometimes.
Train progressive bonuses attract me currently.

currently I ask chatgpt "whats the best slot game to play on (said site)" and play that game

Thank you for the introduction. I will try my luck with the free slots.

Whilst i firmly believe that at the activation of any spin - the end result is then RNG determined, the return to play (RTP) percentage is always something to consider - as much if not more than the size of the progressive pots you may see.
I enjoy slots and watching professional slot gamblers go about their work both here and in the US and you will often see such players checking these stats as they move from machine to machine.
There are also obvious visual tips to observe - for example the Mo Mummy machines with each of the respective 3 bonus Mummys having their eyes open on the screen, its not definite for a quick win but it does mean often that its more likely to pop and give a bonus.

Heres an example video from Buffalo slots

I know in some casinos - they have floor staff that can put a machine in demo mode for you - if you are a newbie and want to find out how a slot works, also some have specifically trained slot staff to advise you as you play, you can sometimes see videos on YT where you have a customer with say only a couple hundred bucks and staff will advise on small denomination bets and walk you through the game. I think this is pretty cool and i have seen some great videos of where the novice slot player has hit big.

my favourite slot was long time ago @PS Casino - there i have a free spin and some times i won some spins on different games.
i only played with my free spins and cant loose a thing so it was just fun, but i never won something great or received 50$ or more.
I tried out real money slots with smallest buy in but it didnt get me because i think these games are made for people who wanna think too much and only like tot hit buttons ;-).

Dont play money if u cant afford to lose it

Playing any online slots for real money is illegal here (and in most of US), but brick and mortar casinos are legal. It is not about safety or security, it is about favors and kickbacks. The politicians don't get anything from online gambling, so they will continue to oppose them.

So, the only slots I can play online are freebees (not as much adrenaline aided fun).

Hello, there may be no strategy in online slots, but you should know a few things that I adhere to: When playing slots, be prepared to lose and do not spend more than 2% of your budget. Play in trusted casinos and on proven games with a large progressive jackpot. You never know when luck will land on your shoulder.

I play the slots about once every month or two because I only play when I need a break from blackjack.
My problem is the different machines, and I need to read them all to determine which one has the best odds of a payout.
it usually don't matter in the end because I usually end up broke, but have fun with the distraction before going back to blackjack.

Are online casino jackpots larger than those in land-based casinos because they reach a wider range of players than a single physical machine?

That is amazing Jay! Was not aware you are also a heavy casino user and wish you the best of luck in your endeavors with said games.
