Myths and misconceptions about slot machines
No matter how long you've been part of the iGaming industry, you've probably come across materials that allegedly revealed the whole truth about online slots. The fact is that some of these "truths" (note the quotation marks) are ordinary myths. We will try to dispel the most popular misconceptions about the world of gambling.
Myth #1: Slot machines are programmed for "hot" and "cold" periods
The players can really get into a period when the machine begins to regularly give out winnings for a long time. But he can also activate the mode, which, as it may seem at first glance, seems to have suspended payments or does it extremely rarely. However, the answer is not in the code.
These periods are pure coincidence. According to statistics, the chances of losing or winning are about the same. Just like every spin is the result of a random number generator. The truth is that no one specifically adjusts the machine for "cold" and "hot" periods. Unless the slot is scripted.
Myth #2: A slot that hasn't paid for a while is ready to give out prizes
The opinion is similar to the previous one and, not surprisingly, is also a lie. Since all slot machines are completely random in nature, there is no way to determine when the next payout will occur.
The slot did not give out a prize when you expected it? Everything is in order, but you should not hope that the next spin will be a winner. He could, but the slot isn't programmed for it. A random result is all you get in the end.
Myth No. 3: If the slot has given out a jackpot, then the triumph will not be repeated for a long time
Many people sincerely believe in this theory, but it is a lie. The jackpot can be won at any time. Why? Because each spin is a random result. Everything is very simple.
Myth #4: The Bonus Game Reduces Your Chances of Winning
An interesting guess. Some gamblers believe that landing a bonus game reduces the chances of winning. Fortunately, this is not the case. The fact is that the random number generator cannot know whether you are playing with a bonus or not. In fact, it does not matter what kind of money is spent in the game - bonus or real. Chances are equal in both cases. Simply put, the size and speed of payouts do not change just because you use a bonus.
Myth #5: All new slots are different
Partly true. However, it is even more likely that online slot players tend to be unstable and tend to look for new slots after they have failed in the past. When there is an alternative, online casinos will be happy to provide it. You get new experiences; the casino income is growing, and everyone is happy!
