Every player must stick to his bankroll. Bankroll is the total amount of money you can afford to play with or to lose. There is a bet max button on every slot machine. Bet Max button allows you to play with the maximum bet on this very slot machine. Comp is so called additional bonus, which is given to the player who has been playing one and the same slot machine for quite a long period of time. Comp can be represented by free meals and in come casinos by money rewards. House Edge is an amount the casinos is sure to receive over a long period of time. Payback is percentage amount of each bet dollar, that is paid back. If you play the slot machine with 86% payback it means that it pays back 86% and 14% is the house edge.

There are at least two types of slot players.
The first type is a persistent player.
This type of slots player is the one that believes the win is right around the corner. Any second now the slot machine will roll over and all the coins will be flying out and you will be rich.
Players become so persistent if they have already spent a lot of money for this slot and haven’t got anything or if they have found a slot machine that haven’t paid for a long period of time. They believe that at least any payout is due to happen. The rush is that if they leave after depositing so much money in the machine it will erupt and the payouts will be often and large. Maybe it can really work if you have already spent thousands of dollars and have got nothing back. The machine can’t but paying.
Many years ago players have their own way of determining whether the machine has not paid out for a long period of time. They touch the coins to see whether they were cold or hot. If the coins where hot then the slot machine had not paid out in a while and to the chaser this was good as the machine was do. The heat of the machines lights, etc would eventually heat the coins.
Chaser is the next type of slot players.
The player believes the slot machine is not one of those machines that never pay. The player have won and being reinforced by the win gains trust in the slot machine. There is some kind of comfort and trust between the slot machine and the player.
