Know the Payout Table Back and Forth
8:03 PM
Some online slots will post the payout table alongside the playing screen, while others require the player to click on a tab that says "Payout Table". Since the latter can be more frustrating, (having to click back and forth between the two) it is advisable to copy the payout table on a scratch sheet of paper. And although the casino software will inform the player of any winnings (usually by highlighting the exact combo on the table or running a line through the matching symbols (for multi-line machines), it is still a safe move to have a copy of the payout table for reference at all times. This especially holds true for multi-spin slots, which let players place a free initial spin, with options of putting symbols on Hold for the final spin. If there was an excellent time to incorporate strategy at a slot game, this would be it. For instance, if a player hits a "Wild card" symbol on the free spin, it would be foolish to not put it on Hold. And by knowing the payout table, a player will know which symbols and in what combinations should be put on Hold for a multi-spin slot machine.
