If it was true...which it is not, that the chance of hitting a jackpot, on a completely random videoslot, would increase, like 777 says, the more money was lost to it, it would mean 2 things. 1. it would not be anywhere near random, and 2. every time a losing spin was hit, it would have to be removed, so that it couldn't be hit again, until the machine was left with no other choice, but to give you the JP combination, which, again, would make it non random.
What you're basicly saying 777, is that there is a number of combinations on a slotmachine, and if you keep grinding away, you'll eventually hit every single combination. This is true, in the sence that you would have to do millions and millions of spins for this to happen, excactly because each spin isn't removed when hit. You can hit the excact same combination over and over and over....including the jp combination. The chance of hitting any OTHER combination is a lot higher, because every other symbol on the machine, is represented more times on each reel, than the jp symbols. The more times a symbol is represented on the reels, the more times your combinations will have those symbols in them. It's really not rocket sience
We often hear, that there is a lot more screenshots from a new slot, just released, and after 2 weeks, when the "new" effect slows down, and less people play the slot the number of screenshots drop. Yes....they do, simply because less spins are made on the slot, hence there won't be as many big wins. It's NOT because they "lower the RTP", or any other mumbo jumbo, that some people seem to think...it's simply because less spins are made, so less big wins will be won. It doesn't mean, that any individual player has a bigger chance of hitting a big win, but it DOES mean, that of all the many many many more combined spins, made by ALL the many many players, some big wins are more likely to occur, among any of those spins.
Comparing a compensated fruit machine to a random slotmachine is like comparing 2 things, that can't be compared ....you pick
