Land base slot vs Online slot RTP

[Kemarit]

In my experience land base casino's though, I don't know, but I will say that I'm more lucky in playing slots as compare to online specially crypto base casinos. Probably it's the environment in land base that push me to at least be positive and bet more as compare to my playing time in online casinos.

I'm not saying it's bad, it's that the numbers on me on online is pretty bad.

Let's say I put $100 in a land base games and play that one, chances are I might hit a good returns. But so far in crypto base? nah, I have string of bad luck that it's hard to recover and bounce back. So I usually go out and travel with my friends to just play slots and limit my crypto based experience (expect for sports betting).

There had been lots of articles about the differences between RTP land-based slots and online casino slots.  These articles agreed that land-based slots had a lesser RTP than the online casino.  Though it is somehow hard to obtain the RTP of the land-based slots, but if we are eager we can get the data on the state gaming reports.  It requires a lot of effort in finding the RTP of a landbased casino while it is so easy when it comes to Online gambling casinos.  We can't just email the land based casino staff and asked for the RTP of a certain slot because more often than not, they will answer that they don't have the information.

Many articles also discourage players to play in a land-based casino if they wanted to have a higher RTP.  But if you wanted to feel the atmosphere of a casino, going to a land-based casino is way better than an online casino.  This is one of the advantages of a land-based casino. 

Agre, the RTP are f*ck us on Landbase.

I believe around 60-70%, Imagine on there people are easily spent 10-100$/spin and guess what "Jackpot" triggered by only 3,000$ ~LOL I always funny to see landbase slot, the attendance need to give him the money only 3,000$ with 50-100$/spin.

Slot in Landbase should be avoided ~XD

We can justify if the assumption is true by asking or getting the state gaming reports.

Rather than making generalizations about coin sizes, you can always check out state gaming reports. These reports show the average payout percentages (or house edges) for each coin denomination within a given state’s casinos.

For example, you might look at a Nevada Gaming Commission (NGC) release and see that dollar slot machines are offering 94.79% RTP on average.

Interestingly enough, the NGC reports specific payout information for Megabucks. This IGT product is the most popular slot in all the popular Las Vegas casinos and warrants more detailed info.

Also, not every land based casinos have transparent slot-machines. It's just not possible to know accurately their RTP percentage. You have to trust the house and hope they are being fair to you. The only pros I can see on such machines is the excitement it guarantees to the gambler through shining colors, lights, eccentric design and catchy sounds. That is indeed an unique experience you aren't going to have when playing at online casinos.

As I stated earlier there is a way to know the RTP percentage of land-base slots but it would be troublesome because we need to get it from the state report.

They are of different interest. Landbase slot games are much more interesting than online base slot games. The only different I can tell is their time or period of visiting. Online slot games can be visited one click from your mobile phones or laptops but landbase slot games can not be easy visit because there are some that one has to treck for a very far distance to play the games.
Finally slot games both online and offline are all the same. Because numbers are not set for you the play to win but for the system to win highest. Slot game is difficult to win big.but you can win small and not big.

[Broadanbig]

All through I have only had the experience of online casino. Some times it's a happy moment and sometimes it is just like that. I think I would try the land casino and see how it goes but one of the major things scaring me away from land casino is privacy which I do much cherish most but however, I will still give it a try first.

I think both casinos spend heavily to go by but online casino likely spends more than the other looking at the features in comparison. I have no doubt about that.

Physical casinos is not that transparent when it comes to RTP percentage and yes playing slot machines is not that rewarding but of course it is more entertaining if you play on physical casinos. Increasing your chance of winning are more possible online, this is also why many are shifting already from physical casinos to online casinos, plus it is now more convenient to gamble online.

If you’re looking for more entertaining gambling experience then playing on land based casinos are more advisable, but if you’re into profit then I agree that playing online can increase your chance of winning. If you notice, casinos online are more active on their promotions and bonuses, that’s why many goes online since the pandemic started. This is a big challenge to land based casinos to inform the public about their fairness but I guess they will not do this, or else they will lose more as many will leave that casinos for being not fair with their machines.

[famososMuertos]

If you compare it with the RTP there is no discussion, win online.  But the point is that a large majority of players have no idea what an RTP is and in the same way they are entertained by playing online or anywhere, in fact I have seen people playing on their cell phones while playing in person.

In reality, it is very relative. Traditional casinos are an option and have their loyal audience. In fact, I think that physical casino players are more consistent. Yes, there are more online users, but that does not mean that they are frequent, so face-to-face is a routine like going to the gym.

^Still they are the same for me, online slots can offer a wider range of themes, pay lines, and bonus features than land-based slots, and may also offer higher payout percentages (RTPs) and progressive jackpots. Players can access online slots from anywhere with an internet connection, making them a convenient option for those who prefer to play from home.
The basic gameplay of land-based and online slots are similar, but there are some key differences in terms of their physicality, availability, and features. However, the choice between land-based and online slots will depend on each player's personal preferences and priorities.

Gamblers have different course to play with either a landbase casino with some physical location or to focus there gambling online. I think the chief of them all is how to prove that, they ate being served a provable fair game. No one wants to gamble at a table or screen where the odds are 51% against you. Nope, you want things 50:50 and that's how it's should be.
This becomes the issue for most between Landbase and Online casinos and matter the theories put in place to give gamblers comfort and earn trust, there obviously would be some doubt on what is being sold to them.

Be it as it may,
Am more comfortable with online gambling as it really do give me comfort, you can switch games with ease, fund and make withdrawals with ease and you do that without having to care about nothing else in your immediate environment.

[harizen]

People should stop hitting the land based casino if there main purpose is hitting a jackpot because it’s really not worth it. Land base slot has a low jackpot prize and you need to bet high amount in able to have a chance to get it while online slot can give you the chance to hit that kind of jackpot with lower bet amount.

From what I see, "generally", the majority of gamblers are not really focusing too much on anything about the slots RTP and don't bother to know the difference in winning rate playing slots at physical casinos or online gambling platforms. They will just play either on land-based casinos or online gambling sites with only "hoping for luck" as their primary equipment.

The reason is, as long as they are seeing a bettor that wins big on slots, either playing land-based or online, that will give them a boost to play more as they are inspired and want that winning to also happen to them.  Another reason for some gamblers to ignore anything about RTP is, once they won big on that said slot, they just want to feel that winning experience over and over again.

Personally, I admit I don't really care about that RTP-related thing on slots not unless the given RTP was really beyond unusual. And for considering playing slot machines at physical casinos, just for a change and not that I will seriously put an effort to hope for a jackpot win.

people have their own preferences. whatever it is, just take advantage of what they offer to you. some are still into land-based casinos playing slots as the experience is quite different over online casinos. however, if you want to play at the comfort of your home without no one bothering you, you can very well play on your laptop or desktop. at the end, it is all a matter of preference here.
but do remember, some of these traditional gamblers still stick to physical casinos as they are used to it. so these land-based casinos will still have their loyal patrons. most younger gen may prefer the online casinos for so many reasons.

I agree aside from that players decide which one to play according to their personality.  Introverts prefer online casino where they can play to their content without being disturbed by other people while extroverts like going out with friends and enjoy the company of other people so they prefer land-based casions.  The RTP reward is negligible for both people since they can do what they prefer to do.

The reason is, as long as they are seeing a bettor that wins big on slots, either playing land-based or online, that will give them a boost to play more as they are inspired and want that winning to also happen to them.  Another reason for some gamblers to ignore anything about RTP is, once they won big on that said slot, they just want to feel that winning experience over and over again.

True, other experience often influence other peoples decision.  So when a hot news came that a guy won huge amount on "this"  establishment, gamblers will try to play on that establishment wishing that luck will smile on them replicating the winnings experienced by others.

Personally, I admit I don't really care about that RTP-related thing on slots not unless the given RTP was really beyond unusual. And for considering playing slot machines at physical casinos, just for a change and not that I will seriously put an effort to hope for a jackpot win.

I am more on the volatility of slots than the RTP.  I always avoid slots with extreme volatility because I wanted to experience a slot that often gives a win no matter how huge or small the winnings is.

[dothebeats]

Any land-based casinos aren't really known to be generous when it comes to RTP. They'd screw you ten times over and you will not have a word on what they are running on their casino. In slots, what I would suggest is that you watch people play first, ensure they haven't won anything substantial, and immediately fill their spot and play where they left off. IIRC, whatever they lost on that machine will carry forward to the next user until the win threshold is hit, and those are the machines you want to be on. It takes a lot of patience though, but it is worth it, especially if you hit the jackpot off of those machines.

[Hispo]

I would stick to online slots, why? Besides the reasons you mentioned there is also the fact that thanks to online casinos and gambling, people now can experiment all kind of slots, an infinite number of designs, providers, configurations, colors and themes.

It does not matter how big a physical casino can be, they cannot compete with the variety of slots online, it is ideal for those who are seeking to know what kind of slots are they into.

On the other hand, at your nearest casino you would need to adapt to the handful of options they offer.

I understand that people have different preferences in terms of gambling, while others prefer physical or IRL slots, there are some like me who doesn't have access on physical slots near me. I remembered back then there was one that was acknowledge by our local government, but at that time I was still underage and my parents wouldn't let me play due to the fact that it was still gambling and they're afraid that I'll be addicted and would skip my studies due to that. When I reached the certain age where I'm already considered legal, it was no longer there and was removed by the authorities, so it's safe to say that I haven't touched slots in my whole life although I had fun watching those people who played those machines way back years ago. Right now though, it's a different story since there have been lots of slots online popping out everywhere and I got the chance to play from time to time.

I think I would try the land casino and see how it goes but one of the major things scaring me away from land casino is privacy which I do much cherish most but however, I will still give it a try first.

Privacy that no one knows that you are gambling? Is there anything bad to gamble publicly? If I gambling on an land based casinos, that does not mean my privacy is compromised as long that I am using just the little I have to gamble. But I understand you though, with online casino, no one knows that you are gambling, but the KYC that many gamblers overlook alone breach privacy.

I think both casinos spend heavily to go by but online casino likely spends more than the other looking at the features in comparison. I have no doubt about that.

Online casinos sees more traffic and they spend more in my opinion. Also online casinos gain more though and no congestion online.

[Pmalek]

Based on other user experience, Other casino put a 99% RTP sign on one of the machine to mislead players that all slots have same RTP while in reality its only that single slot have high RTP in the row and the rest has low RTP.

Technically, it's a trick that land-based casinos use and they aren't lying. The trick is saying "play on our slot machines with RTP rates of up to 99%." They don't claim all machines have RTP returns of 99%, just that some or one of them has. It's not lying, it's playing a game with words that many players overlook. They only see the 99% statement and miserably fail to read the important words that precede it.

I haven't spent too much time in physical casinos, but I doubt they would point to the exact machine that has the highest RTPs. That's simply not good business, as players would be rushing to play on it. Ultimately, it would cause somewhat more frequent payouts.

[Kakmakr]

The real question is this :

How do you determine if the RTP being used by 3rd party Slot providers and original games.... are what is shown by the online casino? This is not validated by any regulatory organization.

The RTP and the RNG and the server seed are audited by authorities with oversight on the operations of brick n mortar casinos. (land based) ..so you know the configuration of the slots are what is advertised. (It is written to a CHIP and it is logged by the machines)

So do not believe that the configuration of the online slots are what it is supposed to be.... because it takes 1 000 000+ bets to test it. 

[Betwrong]

~
Conclusion: Land based slot is only good to play if you only want to become entertained since their RTP and max payout is ridiculous. Online slot on the other hand offers high return since they have lesser operating cost and high payout is there main attraction. People should stop hitting the land based casino if there main purpose is hitting a jackpot because it’s really not worth it. Land base slot has a low jackpot prize and you need to bet high amount in able to have a chance to get it while online slot can give you the chance to hit that kind of jackpot with lower bet amount.

I think all slots, online and land based ones, should only be used for entertainment purposes. Even though the RTP of online slots is more favourable for us gamblers, hitting the jackpot remains very unlikely, and we shouldn't count on it, we shouldn't think "I have more chances here, so I'll play here." Play wherever you like, where it's more entertaining for you, and it can be land based slots for some people, although I personally prefer online slots.

Overall, great observation, @Coin_trader. +1

In this part of the world where I came from gamblers are not really given or accorded some level of respect based on the gmfact that they gamble. They are seen as irresponsible and careless onec it is noticed it seen that you are coming out from a gambling joint notbti talk of the fact that you are  noted to be a gambler.
I am not trying to say that gambling is bad but I am only trying to let you know what it is here hence my restrictions on land gambling.

I also have no doubt about the online casinos spending much because I know for sure they would have huge traffic so to avoid interruption, they would need to get the best of gadgets and facilities to sustain them.
We should also note that they make high returns as well but but the irregularities as regards to account banning and suspension is getting out of hand.
