[00:01] there's Advantage slot players and if so how do they do it I'll give you a hint I'll tell you it's not the way that I hear 99 of people that claim to beat slot machines you can't beat them by playing at certain times of the day [00:14] going on different days of the week betting strategies by moving from machine to machine or looking for patterns in the reels and what's coming up that's just not how slot machines work they are always random but there [00:28] are a couple scenarios that some slot machines can actually be beat I know a three very specific methods on how you can beat slot machines and it's actually backed by math and not conspiracy theories and that's what we're going to [00:42] talk about today I want to get this out of the way right now this isn't some get go to the casino after watching this video and just go win a huge jackpot that's not how these work this is more like counting cards where you gain a [00:56] very small advantage over time if you put in enough work work and you play for long enough in fact there are people that use these strategies to become professional slot players that's a real thing scenario one is the most obvious [01:10] they're called must hit by a slot machine the idea is that there's a counter going and the jackpot will always be won by the time a counter reaches a certain number usually it's shown in a dollar amount like must hit [01:22] by five hundred dollars then the meter will rise going up by like one cent little bit every time you win something something like that if you sit down at a machine and it says must hit by five hundred dollars and it's at one hundred [01:36] dollars the odds aren't very good but if you sit at the same machine and it's at you sit at the same machine and it's at 499.99 and it must hit by 500 the odds are really darn good you're gonna win some money it's that change in odds that [01:51] you have the documentation on the machine it'd be possible to calculate it's going to depend on the machine machines payout and how much is dedicated to that jackpot so different machines are going to have different [02:05] Breakeven points let's just make up a number and say that it's at 450 out of 500. so if the counter is less than 450 dollars the casinos in the advantage if it's over 450 the players in the advantage as it gets closer and closer [02:22] and closer to 500 the more Advantage you have so for this strategy you'd walk that are close to that must-hit by amount the problem though is like I said it's the most obvious there's a lot of competition people are going to be [02:38] watching those machines as it gets closer and closer to that 500 Mark somebody's going to be all over that machine the next strategy is Progressive jackpots with a progressive jackpot it gets bigger and bigger over time the [02:52] lottery that it's it's one in a million to win and it costs one dollar if the price is below a million the odds are against you but as soon as it crosses that one million dollar mark it gets to one million and one you're technically [03:07] in the advantage so if you play the same machine and that progresses a thousand dollars one day and then it's like six million dollars the next day the odds to win to the jackpot haven't changed but the amount has meaning the machine has a [03:21] better payback as the jackpot grows so just look for a machine that has an abnormally large jackpot compared to what it normally is but you'd have to get really intimately familiar with what abnormally large is for that machine [03:35] you'd probably need to keep a log of the jackpot over the course of like months or years you need to know what abnormally large means for that machine then you'd have to risk a huge amount of money to win very small amounts of money [03:47] remember my example of one in a million and the prize being one million and one that's not a very big Advantage you could put a million dollars in and still gonna win before you just haven't advantage and the odds are in your favor [04:01] so for this to statistically guarantee a profit you'd need to win hundreds of progressive jackpots all with them being an advantage State and you can imagine what kind of bankroll you need to make that happen but this is possible there [04:15] are professional slot players that Target progressives the last way that I know of is the best in my opinion this strategy is what I call Goal based slot have a machine that you collect things and it doesn't reset after every spin [04:29] like every time you get 50 gems you enter the bonus round or something like this because people think this is the case with dancing drum there's a ball that fills up with coins and people think that as the bowl fills up they're [04:41] more likely to win but if you read the rules of the game it's just a visual it doesn't mean anything and it doesn't affect the odds for this strategy to work you need an actual counter that says you've collected 37 out of 75 [04:55] apples or whatever it is if you've collected 74 apples you have much better zero so you probably want to make a big list of all the games that have counters like this and then go around and check each machine again it's going to be [05:10] nearly impossible to determine what the break-even point is but the general concept still stands this is in my opinion the best way for an average casual player to be Advantage if you want to understand why all the other [05:23] methods that people talk about don't actually work I think that every slot player should watch this video here it's really dense with information but you have to watch it if you're ever going to understand how slots actually work [05:36] before your next Vegas trip get educated thanks for watching
