Are You a Slots Professional?

There are professional poker players who make a good living by winning millions of dollars worth of international tournament prizes. And, it's not uncommon to hear about blackjack players who, because of their exemplary skills, can influence the playing odds in their favor when playing against the casino dealer. But believe it or not, there are also so-called slots professionals who can win more frequently than the average player against slot machines that do not require any skill at all and which are governed purely by the random number generator imbedded in its computer chip brain.

Slots professionals are generally known to be an aggressive lot who are really good at slots and may even resort to cheating to win. Unlike your regular Tom, Dick and Harry who play at the slots, these professional slots players excel at strategies that enable them to bring home significant wins from the casino. Now, you may be wondering aloud how these players can manage to win in slots which work on random numbers and cannot be influenced by whatever skill a player may employ.

One of their best kept secrets to beating slots is that they don't just play any slot machine. They play instead those that have higher payout percentages where their chance of winning the pot or a series of small wins is very high. Commonly called loose slots, these machines are often used by casinos to attract new players and encourage more play and slots professionals are good at sniffing out these loose slots by asking locals, casino regulars and staffers.

When they are not playing loose slots because some other player was there ahead of them, slots professionals look for progressive slots that can yield millions of dollars in jackpot prize if they are lucky enough to hit the winning combination. If you would like to follow in the footsteps of slots professionals and play progressives, be aware that while these big time game machines can give you a life-changing win, their payout percentage is the lowest in the casino. Moreover, if you are not willing to bet the maximum number of coins for each spin, stay away from progressives and just leave these machines to the slots professionals because even if you hit the winning reel combination, you will not be entitled to the jackpot if you did not drop the maximum bet.

Because of their very low payout percentage and the need to wager the maximum bet, progressives would quickly eat up all of your bankroll if you are not careful or don't have the sufficient funds to play these high-end machines. But if you have the guts and the perseverance and are ready to meet the challenge of progressives, you just might be tomorrow's next lucky millionaire.
