Fixed Odd Betting Machines

[Kos]

The fixed odd betting machines in bookmakers; are you better off playing one slots game or moving between the different ones on one machine?
I.e Are the payout %ages based on the machine you are on or the game you are playing?
For example if one game had a cashpot that was full at £500, is that more likely to 'drop' than the same game with only £300 in it's cashpot on a different machine?
Surely if the payouts are machine based then if the machine has just paid out a £500 jackpot, it is unlikely that the £500 cashpot on the same machine is going to 'drop'

Up market but still one arm bandits .they are slot for me .

I'm not after advice on whether to play them or not. Just wondering how they work!!

[Old_Geezer]

It ain't going to make much odds is it. They work by not coming up with a winning combination and paying out unless they've got their 'pound of flesh'. If you must play wait until some sucker have put a load in then play the machine after them. I'd be confident a full cashpot, if it were possible, is not going to increase any odds. If may make the machine state Out of Order.

I believe there's a trick to getting more out of than you put into those machines . . . and that it's somehow related to ownership.

So how can they 'l00% random' then if they only pay out after they have taken so much in?

[Old_Geezer]

I don't believe they are that random in the short term. But it's just my belief. If you wish to do the experimentation then I'd be interested to see you post your results.

What made you think they are 100% random Kos?

[Kos]
