Hello community!
After my journey in finding the thruth about slotmachines and the way they work, I am convinced the slots in casinos work the way as explained in different articles of American Casino Guide, WizardofOdds and more sources and that every outcome of a spin is random, generated by a RNG the moment you spin the reels.
Now I dó have my doubts if this is true for ALL slotmachines. I am from Europe, I don´t know how it is in the US, but here in almost every bar, snackbar and other public places you can find slots, but those slots are very different as the ones you will find in the casinos.
In the Netherlands, for example, and for sure in more countries there are the typical slots like: Random Runner, Jolly Joker, Oldtimer, Twintimer, Club Runner, and dozens more of this kind.
The reason why I doubt these slots work the same way as the ones in the casino, is based on my experiences with these slots (I played them A LOT), my conversations with owners and workers of gambling halls (small types of casinos, but just offering these kind of slots) ánd the fact it simply was really worth it, observing players playing slots very well, to jump in on the right moment to increase your chances.
The insiders of such gambling halls, had different explanations on how about these slots work, but they had all in common, there is a given cylus in these slots. The looser slots have a small cyclus, where you can expect it is hard to have an extreme long bad run. The tighter slots are the interesting ones. They can eat a lot of your money, but give ridiculous prices.
I always believed this theory on these slots, and to be honest, I stilldo. When you are an experienced player, you get a good picture on the way slots behave. I don´t say, a jackpot (on those slots mostly 200 credits) can´t fall 2 times in a row, neither do I say these slots will definately eat your money after it paid out big, but on quite a short term (this term is different from slot to slot), you can expect them to pay out if it did clean out somebodies wallet before.
In Spain I also played the bar and gambling-hall slots a lot. These are also different then the ones in the casinos. And really, the way they spin is so obvious they are programmed. It aslo dóes remember your past results. You can expect a positive outcome very soon if you gambled a price away for points, and can expect it will not give it to you f you took it instead of gambling it away.
When a price is given you have the option to take the prize or gamble it. When you try to double up, but you don´t succeed, you will receive points, which you can use for the bonus play. Most of the times, this is a game with 3 other reels on the slot, where prices are higher.
When you play those spanish slots for a while, it is so very obvious what the slot is planning to do, especially the ones in Spain. It is almost a joke they are programmed this way, it doesn´t even intend to give you some feeling of randomness.
Slots like in Holland and Germany give you more the impression of randomness, but I am still convinced it is really going through his programmed cycle in one or another way.
Now, I don´t claim my/this theory to be true. But I am pretty sure, people who know these slots and play them quite often, will have, at least, the same doubts about their randomness.
Is there somebody on this forum who knows if I am right about this, ór have other information how these kind of slots work?
I added some pics of the slots I am talking about.
Thanks in advance!
