But understanding slots payback makes knowing your chances of winning far easier.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s discuss the 3 most-important aspects surrounding this concept below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Return to Player<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is the sexiest of the topics we&#8217;re going to cover here. Return to player (a.k.a. RTP) shows what payback percentage you can expect from a slot machine over the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example: if a game has 95% payback, then you can expect to win back $0.95 for every dollar you bet. Another way of putting this is that the house has a 5% advantage.<\/p>\n<p>Will you really win back exactly 95% of your money?<\/p>\n<p>Not likely. You&#8217;re either going to win more or less because it can take hundreds of thousands of spins to reach a game&#8217;s RTP.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s still good to know this figure to understand your long-term odds of winning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Random Number Generator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3677\" src=\"http:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/random-number-generator-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/random-number-generator-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/random-number-generator.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Some slots players mistakenly think that spin results are determined by the RTP. But in reality, it&#8217;s the random number generator (RNG) that determines this.<\/p>\n<p>The RNG is an algorithm that cycles through millions of number combinations. This means that any spin you make will be completely randomly.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, this totally kills the myth that somebody can steal your jackpot by sitting down at your slot machine. After all, there&#8217;s no way that you and they could push the spin button at the exact same millisecond.<\/p>\n<p>In a licensed casino market, gaming control agencies check slot machine RNG&#8217;s to ensure that everything is working properly and fairly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Hit Rate<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3678\" src=\"http:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/slot-machine-winner-300x252.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/slot-machine-winner-300x252.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/slot-machine-winner-768x645.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/slot-machine-winner.jpg 916w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The hit rate (a.k.a. hit frequency) determines your chances of winning on any given spin.<\/p>\n<p>Hit frequency assumes that you use every active payline during a spin.<\/p>\n<p>If a machine&#8217;s hit rate is 25%, this means that you have a 25% of winning any prize during the round.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s best to play slot machines with a high hit rate when you have a small bankroll and\/or want to extend your play to the fullest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Slot machines may seem like totally random games.
