Online Casino Project >>> Slots Tips >>> How to Search Out Land-Based Casino Slot Machines

In our previous gambling tip, we discussed how to peruse through the seemingly endless selection of slot machines available at the best online casinos. It goes without saying how much more convenient it is to look over hundreds of slots on a single computer screen - while enjoying the comfort of one's computer chair - rather than walking up and down banks of slot machines on the casino floor.

So, what about finding the most productive and least confusing way to select a slot machine suited to one's bankroll and gambling style in a land-based destination? First of all, gamblers need to know how to decipher the stakes of slot machines.

Rather than approaching a machine to see what is displayed on the screen, simply pay attention to the small light boxes (candlesticks) located on top of the machines. These are color-coded to designate the stakes of each machine bank, which for video slots that offer several coin sizes, will correspond to the lowest available stake at that machine. In just about all casinos, the candlesticks will be white-colored lights for penny slots, red-colored lights for nickel slots, yellow lights for quarter machines, gold-colored lights for fifty-cents slots, and blue lights for the dollar machines.

By first weeding out the slots that do not accommodate to your bankroll, the overall selection process will go much smoother and consume far less time. Once you have found the machines offering the most conducive stake denomination, you will need to become familiar with the game itself.

The new breed of video slots can be very confusing, considering the large number of pay-lines, various symbols, bonus rounds and extra game features most of these machines have.

When trying to learn a new game, your best friend will always be the Help Screen. All slot machines will have one of these (even online casino slots), and will divulge all the information you will need to know in order to understand the game, including the payout schedule, symbol definitions and bonus features.

Do not ever play a new slot machine before first reading over the Help Screen. If you find yourself getting confused, then move to another machine - possibly a non-video, reel slot. Although you will never become fully aware of all the rules of all the available slot machines, by using these tips to sort through the machines, you will definitely help yourself to not get lost on the gaming floor.
