Casino Slots – Gambling Tips

  For the best odds on winning, always play the maximum bet. For example, if a machine takes a maximum bet of five quarters, place the five-quarter bet. This gives you the best odds of winning long-term if you get a good hand, and progressive jackpots are based on playing the maximum coin amount.

  If you can’t afford to play the maximum amount of coins, don’t play that machine. If dollar slots are beyond your gaming budget, drop down to a quarter machine. In the long run, you’ll always do better if you play four quarters versus one dollar or five nickels instead of one quarter.
