Notice I use the word ‘could’, because of course there will be that guy who bets 88cents and wins $10,000 – but probability is against him. In last weeks blog, What are Payout Percentages, we discovered that the higher denomination a machine, the higher the payout percentage! So if you’re going to bet $5/spin you may as well play that on a 10c denomination machine or $1 machine rather than a penny machine. But there are steps to take in order to get the best bang for your buck! Otherwise I would never leave the casino and just keep winning. First off, there is no sure way of winning every time.
