  • Question
    Can the casino change the payout with out going into the machine, like from a control room or something?
    Community Answer
    They can change it remotely, but Gaming Commission rules prohibit them from doing so while the machine is in use.
  • Question
    Does the casino change a winning machine while you are playing on it?
    Community Answer
    No. The odds are programmed into the machine as it's introduced to the casino floor and may be changed at periodic intervals, but not during play.
  • Question
    Does it matter whether you play the machine fast or slow?
    Community Answer
    Speed will not have an effect on your results, as slot machines depend on luck.
  • Question
    If for any reason a casino thinks someone is not a "good person," can they shut down a chance of jackpots while you are playing?
    Community Answer
    Anyone unwelcome in the casino will be asked to leave by management. Machine odds would not be tampered with on an individual basis.
  • Question
    Should I cash out before stepping out to use the bathroom or stretch my legs?
    Community Answer
    Yes, you shouldn't trust that someone won't come to your machine and attempt to play.
  • Question
    Does pressing the stop button increase your chance of winning?

    The outcome of a slot spin is determined by a random number generator (RNG) the moment you hit the spin button, not when the reels stop. Stopping the reels early just speeds up the animation but does not change the predetermined outcome.
