Why play online slot games

July 26, 2019 by freebets

Online slots are probably the single most popular product in gambling overall, or at least it’s a neck-and-neck race between slots and sports betting. So, as punters, let’s have a look at the sister world of casino gambling and see what makes people play slots so much, especially Free Slots that don’t require a deposit and allow a player to test the game.

Why do people play slots

Most online slots have information about their respective theoretical return to player (RTP), which many players check before playing, and knowing the house edge helps players know what they’re up against. But in all cases the math is the same – you’re playing a losing game in hope of catching it during the period when it decides to pay out that mega win that’s possible by the game mechanics and setup.

In short, you’re investing several quid in an attempt to win thousands, tens of thousands, or in case of progressive jackpots, even millions.

While every player knows it’s a losing proposition and you’ll almost certainly lose money in a very long playing session, in shorter playing sessions there’s a very good chance the variance will work in player’s favor and will produce a win. Every player knows a slot game has periods when it pays well, and periods when it does not. You can’t make it happen or change anything, but with luck you’ll catch the slot game during its generous period.

Best slots to play

Now this is a huge question that can be answered in many ways – which slots are the best. Sometimes popularity doesn’t equal quality, as it’s a known fact that most players tend to play slots that “don’t fight them” and have lower variance, softer colors and offer a generally pleasant relaxing experience. The best example of this is NetEnt, the most popular slot game developer on the planet because of the aforementioned reasons.

However, it’s difficult to win any money on low variance slots as these don’t usually offer a chance to land that huge win on a single lucky spin – that chance simply doesn’t exist in the paytable and the game mechanics. Ideally, a slot game should be able to make you rich on a single spin. If it can’t, look for one that can, it’s not worth it.

Overall, we could say the best possible combination is a high variance slot game with a high theoretical payout.

This would allow a player to play a game that won’t take that much of his money in the long run, which in turn allows you to have many, many chances to win. Games with high RTP allow you to play for a long time, and then that long playing time works in your favor because every spin is your new chance to win. If the slot game is set up to allow for mega wins, which is the case with most high-variance slots, then every spin is a potential mega win.

Compare this to a slot game that has low variance and the paytable doesn’t allow for wins larger than 50x your total bet, and the game has a high house edge of 5% (RTP is 95%). Now that’s a losing proposition and there’s no way to win. At least not more than a few quid.

If you’re about to Play Online Slots, make sure they’re high variance slots with a high theoretical payout. That’s the best possible combination. Ignore graphics.
