online casino

One can say that love for freebie is inherent among people. Let them say that free cheese can be only in mousetrap – everyone wants to get bi-ig dividends with minimal costs. That`s how different lotteries, sales and other events “catch” people.
 Many casinos offer players bonuses – but not free. As a rule, you have to put on casino`s account a defined amount first. Some of them offer such bonuses for nothing, gratis. We`ll talk about it in following articles, and here we`ll look throw two types of without-deposit bonuses – for getting them you haven’t to put money on casino`s account before. One of without-deposit bonus types is bonus for registration. You get such bonus by registration in these casino only (in some cases you need a number of your credit card) – and bonus from casino goes to your account (under 25 dollars). These bonus can`t take off your account immediately, you`ll have to stake a defined amount, which is more than bonus amount (usually for 30-40 times). Let us suppose that registration bonus was 10 dollars. You can take this money only after staking no less than 300 dollars – and card games, roulette, baccarat or dices don`t take into consideration at that. In some casinos in stipulates for slots themselves or slots` types even (the example of very original conditions – you can play only one type of slot, and take money if you get jackpot only, but no more than 10 percents from its account). Minimal/maximum gain is limit too.
 Let`s suppose, amount from 50 to 100 dollars can be stipulate, you can withdraw this amount. If you, in spite of everything, could keep all conditions nevertheless, and win with it – we congratulate you sincerely! Unfortunately not all casinos, where without-deposit bonuses credit, are notable with honesty, and you can remain without well-deserved reward. There are only several casinos, where CIS people can play, giving without-deposit bonuses. I personally won just once on without-deposit bonus and could withdraw a little amount.
 Not long ago one more chance for getting without-deposit bonus appeared. One of game portals Gambling.ru conducts monthly vote in several nominations. Is it bad for playing institution to be in “Best casino” nomination? And if players don`t want to vote voluntarily, one can by their voices. And casinos introduced bonuses for voting. Mechanism is very easy: you vote for casino and sometimes later you get bonus on your account. Bonus amount usually is from five to twenty five dollars and conditions of its recoupment is the same or some easier like conditions of registration bonus recoupment. Though in certain casino you can withdraw money only when win more than two thousand dollars. I personally know the only one case of such winning, and this kind of bonuses thousands players get.
 Bonuses for voting are spreading more and more, but often only players who contributed deposit in this casino earlier can get them. There are a lot of casinos where without-deposit bonuses are offering, but a quantity of such ones where gamers from Russia and CIS can play is smallish. And there are less casino – no more than five – where conditions are acceptable and payments are guaranteed for Russians.
 So, without-deposit bonuses are not 100-percent way to enrich oneself. You`ll hardly win even a hundred dollars. However you are risking not too much. One can compare free bonuses with park amusements (ones where you have to throw a ring on a little pole) or Shrovetide funs when there are prizes on a top of pole for everyone who reaches them. You waste your time, strength (and small amount) and if you`re lucky you can win something.
 For me personally without-deposit bonus is good way to get acquaintance with casino and to fill up my account a little, but I shouldn`t consider it the main source of income.

How wonderful our planet is! Online slot Perfect Planet, which can be finding in EuroGrand Internet casino – is excellent proof of it. Boundless space of ocean and beautiful charming sunset, northern lights of extraordinary beauty and night mysterious desert – all these and many other you`ll see if you`ll vouchsafe Perfect Planet online game-playing machine with your attention.
 I don`t know what about you but I love 8-lines online casino slots. Yes, winnings occur not very often but if they do, a soul can`t find it`s place because of happiness. Today playing resembled me a tug-of-war. There were nothing cheerful during 5-6 spins, and then winnings feel, which returned me to initial point. And it was in progress for few minutes. Then I`ve surrendered my positions somewhat, after these we started to play tug-of-war with game machine. And so on.
 Unfortunately in some moment I had to admit that I`ve squandered 100 pounds. That is how unwittingly it got out my money over and over. But that is what 8-lines slots are good with, that they are able to reward with not bad gains after all. In some moment 6 from 9 symbols on the slot`s screen were dispersion symbols, the result was that my gain was 100 pounds.
 Infused with happened, I became to push the “Spin” button with possess, hoping for repetition of such big gain. But after some minutes I said good bye to 50 pounds again, after these I left EuroGrand casino. I`ll visit it again by all means, because I`m sure that I`ll be luckier next time.
The one I didn`t like in Perfect Planet playing machine is the accompaniment. A head begins crack after few minutes of first drums` launch already. Crazy shouts, some animals` screams are choosing so disgraceful that a wish to shut down the sound arises immediately. But, as you understand, it is not main in game machines, that`s why don`t miss an opportunity to launch the Perfect Planet slot in EuroGrand casino.

It`s time to make the resume of another year for game online-industry. Online poker became the main “newsmaker” last time, casino move away to the shadow; however some memorable and important moments during the year can be found in Internet casino industry too. So what did pay players` attention to in 2009?
   Let`s start with international business, USA first of all. In spite of some players` optimistic expectations, serious motions in country`s law didn`t happen. Senator Barney Frank standing up for online games legalize and regulation in USA continues to collect voices for supporting his bill, but there were no other movement. They firstly talked about possible carrying out bill hearings in Senate`s economics committee in spring, after these in autumn. In the total there is nothing happened, the delay explains with the crisis and greater currency of other bills. Last news say about a possibility of spring hearings, we`ll see if it will happen finally. But even if they`ll approve the bill (and last time about one voice was not enough), that will be the first step only, after these the bill will come to the USA Parliament, where it will have to come through some hearings, get the approval of both chambers and the President`s sign. It may take for some years, so there is no excessive optimism so far. But again, it`s possible the situation when online poker like “mastery game” will be allowed and casino like gamble can stay under prohibition. So, we`ll wait and see. Meanwhile in the same America UIGEA regulations           full adoption was delay again, UIGEA is a law forbidding financial institutes to conduct transactions between Americans and online casino. It means that UIGEA operating but there is no serious influence on banks yet forbidding paying receiving from casino and Americans who wish can play calmly for a while.
A lot of countries now thinking about online games laws. Somewhere they coming the regulations way, somewhere they think about forbidding and state monopolies establishing. Italy, France, Germany, Scandinavian countries can be call among “problem” regions. They are more liberal in East Europe, so not long ago Estonians approved the law allowing online-games, but on the condition that servers have to be situated in Estonia. Some casino will try to legalize in Estonia and some will just ignore the law, here the fact of industry regulation is important but not the forbidding of it.
The situation in Russia is interesting too. As you know, all offline casinos were closed from July 2009. But offline game industry immediately found alternative variants – “lottery clubs” (the same slots, but remaking a little) and “Internet-cafes” (Internet-casino access or just computer games). Spreading of these surrogate casinos provoked authorities to toughen the law against online casino:). Instead of little changing a low forbidding such institutions finally (however nowadays they fight with them successful in some regions, the point is in political will), authorities offer to force Internet-providers to block casinos` sites. It seems to be strange for me – it`s forbidding to make online casinos in Russia only by the law, and it is not even a criminal offence. And enmity propaganda or pornography spreading is criminally liable fully, but nobody offers to block porno- or extremists sites! So that`s ok, chances for approving this forbidding are not big, to my opinion. I haven`t heard some of the movers and shakers were interested in this offer. But even if something like this will be approve a) in Russia law strictness is compensating with optionality of its` observance, b) proxy-servers and VPN can avoid any block easy. So, players haven`t to worry about, it`s easy to pass through any prohibition if you want it to.
However offline casinos closing didn`t give a sharp surge of interest of online casinos there. There became more players in Internet but for tens percent only but not more fold. By the way there is no sharp leap in the side of industry yet. Generally during 2009 there was no really interesting Russian online casino project. Small but perspective Elen Casino project appeared in 2008 and develops rather slowly for the present. One more not bad project seems to be open in the beginning of 2010. No, there were new casinos opened but on petty charged cheap soft, few casinos appeared on familiar Globo and Ensis soft, but they were clones mainly. Though changes in Va-bank fortune have to be mark, it became on last legs slowly during few last years. New team bought it now, management changed, soft developed and other changes plan. I haven`t try new version, the work is going on there, but I`ll try later and tell you about impressions.
Let`s look now what was happening in the world of leading game soft providers. After some years of loosing clients and losses Cryptologic returns to life slowly. There are no new casino they`ve got but they didn`t lose the old ones. Now they sell their slots to other casinos actively and earn not bad money. Among customers is Playtech for example. This company is ok, continues getting clients, lives not bad. They have a little caving in poker at the beginning of 2010. And new games add in casino, more Russianize casinos, in the end of year made me glad with new video roulettes – everything is ok. Cassava activated – returned to life dying Reef Club, made some casinos, signed an agreement with the biggest American offline company Harrah, it will be actually the first online casino from Vegas monster (however MGM Mirage had the unsuccessful experience). They starts to rusifize too, but soft and quantity of games don`t shine yet, but they trying, working, buying Crypts` slots. Boss Media don`t live, don`t die, they accentuate on poker. Microgaming sitting pretty straight this year, there are no many new casinos, with the Americans expulsion the business is not so cheerful, but the company is leader of softbuilding as before leaving competitors far behind. They continue to give 4 new games monthly (total quantity is more than 450 games), including such a unique thing as MySlot setting by player, videoslot without lines with 234 win variants – Burning Desire etc. In one of Microgaming casinos the online jackpot record was set up – €6,4 millions. RTG – the one among grand continues to work on American market, so they have more new casinos. But they don`t like Russians as before, so there is no sense to talk much about this soft. Not much less casinos were open under Rivel. But in spite of decent soft and Americans accepting casinos of this company didn`t win such strong players` love yet. New casinos with this soft are losing and I doubt whether they can attract many players if it were not for without-deposit bonuses. Unfortunately sometimes mistakes and glitches happen in slots, so it`s early to move Rivel to grands.
If to speak about novelties and tendencies in technique terms there are no visible breakthroughs yet. Three-dimensional casino Le Croupier appeared, but it is French one and not very friendly with other nations. In whole we can`t call this casino “first” and “unique”, we can remember Shangri La all the same – three-dimensional casino, which was closed in 2006 yet. Considering growing popularity of social networks, casinos open their channels on Twitter and groups on Facebook (Russian ones – on Vkontakte), BuzzLuck casino (RTG) produced an interactive lobby, where you can interact with people settle there (real peoples` video). Video casinos become more popular. Evolution Gaming company put their games with alive dealers this year in a whole row of big online bookmakers, two new roulettes with alive dealers appeared in Playtech, as I`ve wrote. In spite of active smartphones development  and projections about most part of Internet-serfing will come from computers to mobile-phones, mobile casinos didn`t show serious development.
Resumes of the year were made already with lots of sites and magazines. Two tops attract attention – from industry representative and players. EGR magazine named Casino on Net the best casino, Unibet (for video translations) and BWin (general operator of the year) have got their prizes too.CasinoMeister basing on the opinion of forum participants named Club USA casino the best one (RTG, don`t take Russians), plus CWC group where this casino is in – is the best casino group. The favourite CasinoMeistera casino 32 Red (Microgaming) has got the name of “casino of the decade”. By the way there are some complaints to Microgaming itself, the company got into the list of disappointments and the best soft WagerWorks was voted.  
I hope, in 2010 online casinos will can make you glad . Good luck in game!

With the transition to the new level of development, namely to the video slots level, game machines increased their positions appreciably and became one of the most popular gambles in the world. They`ve got such a stunning success for gamers not only with the ease of playing and stakes flexibility but with the possibility to win the biggest gain in life.
  A slot in offline-casino formerly was accumulate its jackpoty alone, assigning a defined percent of each player`s stake. Today online game machines form vast networks, where tens and hundreds certain slots involve in, and their total jack-pot accumulates of all players` stakes simultaneously. Such a jackpot names progressive.   
 The advantage of such jackpot is that the main game machine`s prize accumulates much more faster and turns out much more substantial. Just imagine, what amount does accumulate in a one minute at least with the coverage of all the world`s players, if there are 100.000 video slots in machines network and one percent is taken from each stake?
 Because of these system more successful gamers win such an incredible amounts like $8 millions in InterCasino. And every slots lover can win the main prize. It takes them only to choose in every Internet-casino a game-playing machine with a creeping line of the progressive jackpot size. It can be notice that this number is always changing to the side of increasing that is somebody playing game machines in one online-network at the same time with you, influencing on a value of progressive jackpot. 
 By the way, slots jackpot can accumulate not only with the deduction of defined percent from each player`s stake but with the percent deduction of stake in every round without win besides. System of jackpot sum accumulating is very flexible, and video-slots producers are free to use a system which will be more profitable and convenient for them. But there is no necessity to go into the heart of the matter, because the player`s task is to catch luck`s tail and to become an elusive progressive jackpot holder in one moment.

Today slot machines have become very popular to make good money by investing a small capital with good fate in hands. By just inserting 3$ in a slot can fetch you with millions of dollars changing your status within one night. There are different kinds of plans for saving money in slot machines and winning higher amount. The slot machine player should always play on that machine which brings in him the confidence to win higher and promises low investment of cash in the beginning. The slot machine which the player chooses to play must be highly advertised and promoted which gives higher percentage of paybacks. For e.g., Casinos like Stratosphere and Reveria and Circus in Las Vegas give a pay back of 98% and 97.4% respectively. Similarly the Reno Casino also gives a payback of 97.4% on 50$ slots. The players should avoid slot machines which gives false claims such as “loosest slots” or “high payback”. The player should only play on those slot machines which clearly mention the higher payback like 98%. There is the other kind of slot machines known as progressives which has LED marquees and shows the jackpot. These machines offer 2-7% less payback than other machines. So it is advisable to play it separately if the player is deciding to play. The player should play in a two coin machine rather than choosing to play on three coin machine and search for USD 0.05 or USD 0.25 machine instead of a USD 1.00.The other trick which can fetch good money to a player is by using a slot card which the player can play it in any casinos around the world. The winnings on slot card offer good free meals and discounted rooms in good 5 star hotels. The last thing which a player should keep account of in the slot machine industry that he should avoid video reels slots which doesn’t give good paybacks and it craves a feeling in the player to play more and loose lot of money. Just like without taking a risk business cannot be done the same way without taking the risk in slot machines and using the various tricks good money can’t be won.

I think that it could be useful for everybody to know different chances to win in different casino games. Of course everybody who in a varying degree understands the rules of particular game can calculate the chances by himself but anyway the majority of people are lazy and I’d like to help them. In this article I’ll describe the chances to win in Slot machines and American roulette. Why only two these? Because in other games the big knowledge and experience are required. That is not enough to now the chances to win in poker because you are dependent on other players.
Let’s start from American roulette. In American roulette you have different chances to win so payouts are also dependent of these chances. In American roulette there are 36 numbers on which you can put your money. In this case you have chances to win 1:36. That means that you will win on the average each 36th time if you will stake on the same number. Anyway I don’t recommend you to play with these chances. Actually it’s impossible to win in this case only if you are lucky. These chances actually were developed for people who don’t have any experience in roulette so they loose all their money rapidly and internet casino gets the profit from this. Play with chances 1:2 of 1:3 staking on black/white or kits of numbers from 1-12, 13-24, and 25-36. You can easily find the numerous of methods how to win roulette with these chances in Google.
In different slot machines you have chances to win from 1:50 to 1:10. But these slot machines have different payouts. If you want to win 1$ for example you should have a security deposit of 50$ to win it for sure. But of course you can win it from the first lead. This depends on your luck.
Try to find out your own methods to win based on the probability theory. You can find out a lot of information about it in the www.

It’s not a secret probably that a set of “beloved” game machines differs in diverse countries. The reasons are both national mentality and juridical fine points. Everywhere practically both classic slots (invented in USA) and video slots (invented in Australia) are spread. There is no talking about national specifity, they are everywhere. Let’s talk today about more exotic variants which you’ll meet not anywhere.
We’ll start with far away Japan and “pachinko” game. This game appeared in Japan in the first half of 20th century and is a type of pinball in whole. Player buys metallic balls which are loading in game machine and shoot to the playing field one by one. There the ball jump aside of different bars and fall to the down side of game machine (machines are horizontal but not vertical like in pinball) or get into one of the prize pocket on the field. The name of the game itself is a onomotopoeia: “pachi” is a sound uttering when ball reflectioning bars. Playing machine gives a winning with balls the same way. Here the interestest starts. Money prizes are prohibited by law in Japan (that’s why ordinary slots are so unpopular there). After game finishing a player takes balls and goes to a shop situated in playing hall where balls exchanging for material prizes – candies, toys, etc. He comes out of a hall with these prizes and goes to a nearest back street and exhanges prizes on money – prizes get back to pachinko hall and happy player goes away.
In modern pachinko machines player has a possibility to regulate a power of droping balls, it means that game acquires skill game features, it’s said that specialists are able to play pachinko running a surplus. Further in new games there are three windows with numbers which are change when hiting. If three identical numbers happen, playing machine comes to “prize game” rate with augmented winning chances by opening additional winning pocket. Generally, payings level in game machine is adjustable, hall’s owners change it from time to time, average payings are about 80% but some game machines can be adjust on “distribution” for players attraction. This game is very popular in Japan, 50 millions of Japanese play it and yearly halls’ turnover exceed a half trillion dollars!
There are rather like playing machines in Europe too. For example known for everyone “crane-machines” where you try to get teddy bears, they haven’t money prizes also. By the way I’ll note that payings level in these game machines is adjustable too, and winnings have a habit to occur in equel periods of time at that, so an observant player can get an advantage. Another type of playing machines is similar with pachinko by functioning principle – you drop a coin, it falls to a game field in a random way. The field consists of two parts: lower side is fixed and a platform moves on it. A coin fall on a platform first, and if you’re lucky one, it will push off one or some coins from the platform which will fall on the fixed part and the platform will push them off further down. Everything that fell – is your gain. But don’t try to incline the game machine – there are sensors which will block payings. Though you will not meet online versions of such machines. May be somewhere in Japan pachinko is virtualized but there is no main soft suppliers of this game in online casino. It’s clear that playing internet version of “crane-machine” is not so interesting, yet may be in the future it will appear.
So and English “fruit” playing machines can be find in online casino, though not everywhere now. The basis of such slots are ordinary classic slots usually, one-line often. They call “fruit” because the most typical symbols were different fruits. But unlike ordinary slots English game machines have some additional possibilities which are “given” to a player in a random way. The first possibility is to hold any number of drums. For example two lemons and one cherry turn out. You hold drums with lemons, during next spin only drum with cherry will revolve. If you’re lucky, the third lemon will occur and you’ll win. Other possibility is to push one of the drums (or some even). In this way the drum move one symbol down. Again you have two lemons and cherry, but you see that there is one more lemon under the cherry, you push the drum with cherry and win! Payings in offline fruit game machines are not rather big – about 80% (minimal permissible level – 70%).
Further improvement of fruit slots are AWP games (Amusement with Prizes). Prize round appears here which activate by fulfiling additional conditions (usually additional side symbols are add to main simbols, you’ll start prize game by collecting some side symbols). In the prize game you can play some Hi-Low rounds in turn (a number from 1 to 12 is given, you have to guess if the next one will be higher or lower). Every won round increases prize. You can reach a top of pyramid where the gain will be about some thousands coins, if you’ll win 30 times in succession. You can choose the variant of gain often – money, pushings, special prize game. These type of games widespread presents not only in England but in Microgaming online casino too.
As you see, there is a “national colour” in game machines too. Not each of them you can meet online, but some novelties you’ll see there surely. So if you want something new – welcome to the game!

AWP – Amusement with Prizes.

AWP playing machines came from Great Britian where they took a place of “classic” british fruit machines with the electronics development. I’ll remind you that fruit slots (three drums and one line usually) give players accidentally extra possibilities to operate a game. There are two ways usually:
•    to nudge one drum such a way when a drum moves one symbol down. There are variants when you can not use available nudges but to keep them for next round, to get repeat nudges in the next round or to risk and to increase / decrease a number of nudges.
•    to hold any number of drums – in a next spin only unholded ones will be revolving.
AWP slots add one more opportunity – it is a prize game. The base is an ordinary one-line slot with accidental nudge and drums hold opportunities. But over some symbols on drums are shown any number (from 1 to 5) or symbol – everything is small and not covering the main symbol. These symbols mission is to initate a bonus game. If it is numbers we have to collect 7-8 points at least, if it is symbols – three symbols in a field of vision (it’s not obligatory in a one line, but on every of nine symbols which are visible on a screen). After a bonus game starts, there can be diverse variants also. One variant is a Hi / Low game, where a number (or some) from 1 to 12 is given a player and a player have to guess if the next occuring number hi or low. If you guess you walk up one step in prize table, if you don’t your bonus game finished. You can stop every moment when your bonus collected. It’s clear that the hier the bonus is bigger. In some cases a player can choose type of bonus (money, nudges, any bonus thing). In other variant of bonus  a game field with some squares  is shown to a player, each of these squares has it’s own type of game. You press the “Spin” button, the number occurs and you move check boxes from start field to turned out numbers.

There a “choosing game” is waiting for you, different variants of winning is twinkling there and you have to choose your winning by pushing the “Stop” button. If you like your winning you can take it pushing the “Collect” button or you can continue the game pushing the “Spin” button. You can get money, free spins, any bonus thing as a winning. If you’ll get to “mysterious”sector marked with interrogatory you can loose in this type of game. The most probable choice options there is a loss.
In AWP, bonus games and sometimes in main game you can win one of the bonus “things”. Among them are:
•    Shifta (Spin a Win) – gives a random winning combination in slot;
•    Boost – adds points;
•     Stoppa fruit (Cash Blaster, Reel Roulette, Pick a Win) – winning combinations become twinkle in slot, you stop twinkling and choose combination occurs;
•    Win Series – starts up series of winning combinations;
•    Exclusive game bonus – usually it calls like the game and gives a maximal gain.
Generally I recommend to read rules and discriptions of bonuses, because I am misled a little in these bonus opportunities even after an hour playing different AWP .
One more AWP type has another principle of operation. In the main game it is a classic slot but if you’ll collect three identical symbols on a line you will not get a money prize but accordingly number of bonus spins. And these spins wuoldn’t be in the main slot but in the bonus. Bonus slot usually has it’s own symbols, payings table and five lines. This bonus slot give a winning every spin almost unlike the classic slot where winnings are quite rare.
And some own opinion in conclusion. I don’t know what is a payings percent in Microgaming casino AWP playing machines but I doubte if it is high. In one game I couldn’t win anything during 50 spins (it was my first trial though and I didn’t use all opportunities of the game fully). To my mind AWP with bonus games are rather interesting if these games occur not very rare. Unfortunately it’s not easy to wait for bonus in some games, winnings occur very infrequent in the main slot. Mainly it is a game with quite rare winnings and the worse is that hopes for big gain are minimal. Besides as I understand AWP games haven’t to be random. I got added avidance myself in one of Hi / Low games, I won only few times even so when start number was not 6 or 7 but 3, 4, 11. Though I advise you to try this game in the cause of acquaintance. I have not bad impression of the Apocalypses Cow game, there bonus rounds are given often so the result is rather big payings . Seek and maybe ye shell find likable for you AWP game machine.

I-slots (interactive slots) – are the next video-slots step.
Video slots are popular all over the world – good graphics and sound, rich stakes changing opportunities, lots of different bonus games, everything is talking in favour of this type of game machines. But the industry doesn’t stay on its’ place, companies endeavour to develop their game machines offer new abilities to players. One of these novelties are i-slots (where “i” means “interactive”). This is the next level of video slots development, which offers players more abilities and   more game pleasure. I can’t say that it is a quiet principled type of game but i hope players will like it. I-slots usually offers nice stills (painted in flesh) forestalling game stages which adds points.
Nowdays there are two main i-slots types in online casino.

The base is an ordinary video slot with standard opportunities – “wild”, bonus, “disconnected” symbols. In the first i-slot type the difference to ordinary slots is a bonus game. In video slots bonus game is the “guess game” – you choose one by one line of “containers” and collect points untill stumble on “losing container”. In interactive slots there are games where a gain will depends on your skills also. For example in golf game “Hole in Won” you set a direction and power of your kick and have to score a ball by the lesser count of kicks geting round obstacles on a field. The less kicks the bigger gain. In other game you’re flying in space and shooting asteroids, every missed of your sluggishness asteroid will cause your money. I can’t say that these games are difficult or gain size is limit but it’s more interesting nevertheless then guess boxes.
Another i-slots type shows player a whole story. Let’s look for example “Bank Heist” game. Thirst round – “Plan” is an ordinary video slot, you have to collect three “disjointed” tommy gun symbols to pass it, after the bonus game will come. There are two variants of bonus game passing – you find a key and get to the bank or the alarm system wenting off and you have to run away. The second round starts “In the bank” or “Escape”. In these rounds we’re playing video slot again but with other symbols yet, other paying table, other additional “things” in “tag”. You run away from chase, can’t you? You forse a safe, don’t you? So there is an ordinary bonus game again and receipt of extra winnings. The third round is “Dynamit” – offers another its’ own variant of video slot. When you reach the end of the game (you succesfully skiddoo with money or you are catched) everything starts all over again and you have some free spins.
Some words about my own sensations. Interactive slots conception is likeable for me. In one game you get pleasant emotions like in some games. It’s more interesting to play – you’re waiting for some joy of next round. Besides it found out on practice that some of i-slots have quite good payings percent. My own preference is mentioned “Bank Heist”. I was laundered bonuses there, played rather long and remained with little plus in total. You can’t win great money here but everything has action, winnings and bonus rounds are rather frequient, you haven’t to wait for a long time turning drums idle.Nowdays interactive slots are present in Rival soft casino only but I think thant this conception soon will get its’ spreading in other online casino.

Many times passed after the appearance of the thirst game-playing machine, but the myths about functioning of these machines lasts.
During the most part of 20-th century slots were the same. Three turning drums, revolving firstly by hands, and then with the electric switches. The position in which drums stopped generally depended on the gravity.
Since then time of drum’s revolving and the number of symbols on every drum are the same, chances and probabilities could be counted up by compiling of the drum symbols scheme and the stakes system could be improved for giving sharp players an advantage.
Everything changed in 1984, when Inge Telnaus was patented his computerized method when slots’ results were calculate. When the system was spread, players ceased to trust game machines. In consequence, a lot of myths about how a computer chooses win variant and how a player can get the best chance to win appeared.
People don’t like to trust computer technologies. And they can’t believe that the result choosing by computer can be accidental. Thereby, myths, logical but mistaken and absolutely absurd, continued. Now it’s time for casino players to publish short description of the most popular delusions about slots and to show real facts.
But first we have to know what Telnaus with his computerized system, which is the base of all slots, actually invented. The system became famous everywhere like “virtual drum” because with this system the results ceased depend on material drums’ motion. (The patent was bought by just set up Intellectual Graphic Terminal (IGT), and was used by it till the patent time expired in 2004.) Instead of this every result was count by number in the computer program. Low-paid and unpaid results were counted with lots of numbers and jack-pot symbols just with some or the one number. This numbers were record on a game chip with the accidental numbers generating (ANG) device, which is continuously processing all possible combinations with the enormous speed. When players pulled down a handle or pushed a button, the mechanism generates one number in the program in accidental order.
Manipulate with the numbers’ combinations which are attach to every symbol or recurring result in the program, producers theoretically could count a period of expenditure, based on a computer modeling of millions rotations. However mathematical genius couldn’t count chances by counting symbols and looking on a payment table any more, because physical drum’s rotations loosed their sense. ANG device chose a result and gave a signal to a computer pecking motor for stopping a drum. Now drums were used just for showing a result, which was chose by this device accidentally.
There are many articles about ANG and virtual drums system, much more then about other details of slots. Readers write us a lot about different myths of slots’ functioning, players still believe in.
Let’s look at the most spread myths and facts, exposing them. We’re sure that myths’ existence will be continued after the reading of this article, because they have their own life. However we’ll try to give you some facts.
What is real and what’s not when we’re talking about slots?

FICTION: When lots of players win or casino is full, casino can click a switch and lessen your probable win. Or, increase quantity of winnings, on the contrary, if causes go too slowly.
TRUTH: Winning switch is the firmest myth, however the reality is another. There is no any switch on the casino personnel’s monitor for changing slots’ winning program.
The working principles are the following. Slots producers demonstrate their software in front of casino leaders like prototypes. If leaders like what they see, they order a complete set of slots, choosing from 6 or 7 probable recoupment programs, which are offering by slots producers. These recoupment programs are recorded to the game chip on a plant by programmers, who theoretically were calculate resetting time using a computer by simulating slot’s work for a few years. Chips also get a state control agencies’ evidence, which made the same calculations to check theoretical win percent. Slots are delivering to casino when chips are integrated in already and access denied.
Chips, that were integrated once, remain in the slot till the end of operation usually. It can be changed if a slot doesn’t get a profit, however it also causes a control agencies’ evidence. So practically it is easier to change a slot, if it doesn’t get a profit, then change a winning probability, for casino.
According to the regulations currently in force, changing of winning probability requires case’s opening and switching chips. And inspectors have to be informed beforehand about place and time of it to control changes. Casino simply can’t allow these.
Winning probability is one of the main casino’s politic regulations in every country. If you have any doubts, pay attention to annual loose awards, adjudging to slots. These digits are the same every year and they reflect real payments, not theoretical.  If a slot is not profitable, casino doesn’t change winning percent. They just change a slot.

FICTION: If programmer can determine slot’s winning probability, results of any rotation can’t be random.
TRUTH: Results of any rotation are random. Programmer’s manipulations with a winning probability achieves by coercion on a set of numbers. There the random results are choosing. Winning probability reduces if low or loosing results are set for greater quantity of numbers.
Winning probability increases, if big gain is setting for a greater quantity of numbers. The reason is not manipulation, but the probability theory: quantity of numbers changed once will be generating in random order.
Imagine a programmer created a machine, which demonstrating easy coin dropping. One number he set for the obverse side of coin and the other for the opposite side. During all game the obverse side will occur as often just like the opposite side. Thereby this game will give back as much as it will take – he programmed the game on 100% correlation of winnings and looses quantity. But actual coin turning is random. Obverse side can occur five times in succession or even two obverse sides will alternate with three opposite… but recoupment will be 100% after all. Howbeit actual coin turning and actual result generation by ANG are random.

FICTION: Winning probability is always more when stake is maximal.
TRUTH: Computer is not worry about how much is your stake. It generates numbers in random order, irrespective of stake. The truth is that “multiplying” game – for example jack-pot quantities are multiple numbers accurate of the coin’s value: 10 coins for one staking person; 20 for two; 30 for three; that’s why there is no point in stake’s increasing to maximum. Winning probability and success frequency are not irrespective from stake too.
This reality can be change by payments program or by making winning combinations only. If this is a “buy-and-pay” program, you’ll see in the table that some jack-pots can be activated after second or third coin only. In that case winning probability will increase really with growing of stake. However not a stake increases probability, but a payments program. Actual result will be the same, in spite of the stake size; a payment will be the other only.
If all combinations are not activated, in case of multiline drum or videoslot winning probability will be less, and it will grow with every coin, which is activating a next combination. When all combinations will be activating, will happen the same like ‘with the instantaneous multiplier – if you’ll make a stake, which is enough for all combinations activation, winning probability and frequency will be invariable.
If a slot doesn’t get a profit, casino doesn’t change percent correlation of winning. They change a slot.

FICTION: Slot pays more (or less) if I put in my club card.
TRUTH: One more everlasting myth is a club card functioning. Information read-out device for cards doesn’t connect with slot’s computer chip. Actually this device is situated in isolated place, in the upper side of slot’s case. It intends just for game registration: a coin is insert or extract. Device transfers this information to the main club computer in the case of reward for game devotion. A club member’s card doesn’t influence on the results any way, these results will be reach by the way of working of ANG program.

FICTION: Casino worker, who knows slots, can unerring predict when slot is “waiting” for jack-pot.
TRUTH: Players often pay personnel for direction to the slot which “have to” win. And those who do these waste their money in vain. Every slot’s rotation doesn’t depend on previous or next absolutely.
Slot’s ANG go over all possible combinations more then 100 times on a second. That’s why if on some slot doesn’t occur a jack-pot for several weeks it doesn’t mean that it will occur today, tomorrow or in a week. Or that it can occur in the next game. Not you and not casino worker can’t know that exactly.
These apply to the case, when casino worker is looking for some slot during long time, and then advices to use it instead of tips. In the TV-program “Megabaxes” was shown, that when the wining absence reaches unprecedented proportions, it becomes a bringing disaster because of the “jack-pot fever”, as it calls. More people will play, increasing its probable occur today or tomorrow. Leave your tips for cocktail delivery boy.

FICTION: Player, who sits down and hit the jack-pot immediately, “steals” previous player’s gain.
TRUTH: Nobody can steal jack-pot. It was marked earlier, that ANG go over all possible results few times on a second. To believe that previous player “steal” your jack-pot – means that you would press the drum’s stop button exactly in the nanosecond like he was. The probability of this case is astronomical. You could hit a jack-pot or loose. It’s impossible to know this, that’s why you haven’t to experience about it.

FICTION: Casino always place constantly loosing slots at the border, for one can see that people win.
TRUTH: There is only a grain of truth – no more. It’s logical – to place winning slots in the most visible location, however really, casino managers stir them. As it was mentioned earlier, winning probability – is the casino politic, that’s why slots situated at the border, have to repay yourself finally, like the slots which are situated in the middle. That’s why the destination of all slots situated in casino is the same.

FICTION: The result of the second prize window is predetermined, that’s why if you can choose a hidden bonus, player’s choice doesn’t have any importance.
TRUTH: Actually, player’s choice in prize game, as it calls, does matter. When a prize game is running, AGN mechanism chooses the one prize quantity screen. After that a player makes a decision to increase or diminish a sum himself. Most of new slots control that by reproduction of all possible variants, after the player makes his choice. This function doesn’t influence on the game anyway; producers start to make this way because they constantly got questions from players about the importance of their choice in prize game.

FICTION: Counting the quantity of intervals and symbols on the drum relative to reward for every winning combination, skilful in math man can determine a slot drum’s wining probability.
TRUTH: It existed in old times really, when virtual drum system wasn’t invent yet. Though, as it was mention in the introduction, the symbols quantity hasn’t an importance any more. The probability of symbol’s occurring on the screen now operating with the computer AGN.
Assigning lots of numbers for one or set of symbols, programmers reach the result, when comes out a drum tape with hundreds of symbols, in spite of the drum has 22 stop position in fact. This is the “virtual” drum. Drum tapes on a traditional slot serve the same purpose like the video screen – the result displaying, chosen by AGN. Symbols counting and making a math counting wouldn’t bring anything but the head ache.
Computer is not worry about your stake. It generates numbers in a random order, in spite of your stake.

FICTION: Coin heating or cooling increases winning probability.
TRUTH: That is one more delusion, strange like the others. People actually heated their coins with lighters and packed them in the ice before dropping in. What’s the result? It made the coins hot or cold. And nothing else. If you like slots with note receivers or not, new slots will explode this myth once and for all at least.

FICTION: Drums swinging means that the mechanism is ready for payment.
TRUTH: V.S. Drums are for the results displaying, which is counted by computer. Even if they are swinging, jumping, dancing jiga or singing a national hymn, the result will be the same – the result displaying corresponds on the AGN choice from all program numbers.

There are the other myths, which we are back to sometimes in our letters section, and which are persistently lasting their existence in spite of factually information. … Lever twitching against the button switching, casino never let us win, casino stuff change winning probability during working with a slot… This list can last. However we have no enough places for enumeration of all lists, that’s why we have to leave something for letters.
Finally I want to say the following: the most part of myths bases on a view that casino is a place where everyone wants to cheat a player and take his money illegally. If you believe this, think about the casino have no necessity on this absolutely. Casino has a licence for taking money lawfully about 2-5% from stake on the majority of games. And we, players, give this money willingly for excitement feeling and regular big gains. Everybody is happy, casino gets money, and players have a respite of daily problems and sometimes get their gains. The main thing is the game doesn’t become a besetment idea. It’s impossible to become rich when playing slots, it’s a good pastime only. Remember about it and good luck for you!

To be honest slots bring the core profit for the internet casinos. To be more precise the slots’ profit share is 70%. Exactly simplicity of the game rules makes the large players base. To protect this base each internet casino develops personal unique game features. For example it’s possible to find slots with four or more wheels in some casinos.
