>>> How to
Peruse and Learn Online Video Slots These days, no matter whether you are gambling at an
online casino or land-based casino, the selection of slot
machines can be quite overwhelming. Even for veteran slots
players, who grew up playing standard Red White and Blue
reel slots, the selection process can be very confusing.
With the introduction of video slots, as well as multi-payline
reel slot machines, players are now bombarded with
hundreds of different slots under a single roof or
internet gaming host. Weeding through slot machines at
online casinos is often a much less laborious task than at
brick and mortar destinations, considering the convenience
of viewing all the available machines on one's computer
screen (and not having to get up out of your chair).
Depending on the software platform of the gaming host, the
games lobby might vary. Most game lobbies, however, are
set up in a way that groups games by being table games,
slots, progressives, video pokers, unique games (such as
keno) and arcade games (if available). Furthermore, there
is usually a section for new games and player favorites
(meaning the games you play the most are automatically
tagged as a "favorite").
After clicking on the Slots icon,
you should be presented with a sub-menu of all the slot
machines. Slot games are usually listed in alphabetical
order, and are labeled as either being a reel slot machine
or video slot. Simply roll the mouse over or click one
time on the slot name, and another sub-menu (usually
accompanied by a screen shot of the game) will pop up,
listing all of the various components and details of the
game.
For reel slots, this should include the max number
of coins accepted, the coin denomination (very important),
number of paylines and reels, if it offers wild symbols
and multipliers, if it is progressive and what the max and
second highest jackpot awards are. Screen shots for video
slots, on the other hand, may or may not show the coin
denomination (since video slots usually accept a wide
range of denominations), yet they should show how many
paylines and reels there are, what the max and second
highest jackpot awards are, the maximum number of coins it
accepts (this is important when playing a progressive),
bonus and gamble features, and if it has wild, multiplier
and scatter symbols.
Having these menus available is a
convenient help that enables players to select the most
appropriate slot game. In our next tip we will go over how
to sort through slot machines in land-based casinos.
