So you go to the slot machine casinos and you look
around to find that perfect slot machine—you know the one that makes you
just feel lucky—you sit down at your slot and you put in your coin…So what
are your chances of winning?
Well, basically slot machines today are all based off of mathematics—that
handle you pull is just there to make you feel accomplished, it could just
as easily be a little button on the slot machine that you push to make the
numbers spin. Knowing the process could help you feel a little better as you
gamble your money away.
First off, inside the machine the random number generator is constantly
pumping out numbers, so when you sit down and pull the lever, the next three
randomly generated numbers determine what pictures you will see—after being
divided by a value, and then correlated to one of the 22 spaces you see on
each wheel.
So this means that as you pick out that perfect slot machine, sit down
knowing that the odds of hitting the jackpot don’t change the longer you
play. Each time you pull the lever, it’s a pure game of mathematics.
