Some Hints on Playing 3 Reel Slot Machines
3 reel slot machine is considered classic and is mostly chosen by slot players. If your gaming skills are not strong or you simply want to know more about game strategy, here are some hints that might be helpful to you.
This strategy is not a complicated one as actually your main aim here is to play long, bet low in order to stay in the game long enough to get some noticeable wins.
First your aim is to double your deposit. Let’s say you want to win $200-250, so a deposit of $100 will be suitable for you. This means you can play long enough in case your stakes vary in the range of .40-0.50 for each spin. By the way, you can either put coins to machine for each spin (so called “two bucket strategy”). It is called two buckets because you start your game by putting coins from one bucket. When you win, you get money from machine and put it into second bucket. This way you play for $100 directly and at once, and will have money in other bucket. Even though this strategy looks simple, it often works and helps to win.
Another strategy is called “ticket in ticket out”. Here you need to set the size of your bets and set the number of spins you wish to be made. Vast majority of 3 reel slots have ‘autoplay’ button that allows spinning slots as long as you want.
Before applying any of these strategies you may wonder what bet you should make. Indeed, determining bet size requires some learning. Many people just say they feel the need for specific bet and use their intuition to define proper bet size, but beware, this can be based just on your mood and sometimes that is not the best idea. If you still want to try, here is the hint. Let’s say your most frequent bet is .50. Do several bids of .25, five or six, not more. Then make one bet of 0.75 and when you feel the luck is near, make a bet of $1. Certainly, you cannot predict everything, so you just can hope your intuition works well. However, you diversified your bet amounts, but spent exactly as if you made all .50 bets.
You may find most proper bet size for yourself as you gain some experience. Some say they win more as they make higher bets; the others stick to opposite opinion and enjoy playing longer using smaller bet sizes.
Also always check slot’s paytable and define the optimal amount of bet size for you. Some slots have only high bets, but this is more an exception, then tradition as today almost all online slots offer high variety of bets starting from 0.01.
