Are online slot games purely based on luck, or is there any skill involved?

[Cantsay]

Slot is completely luck base because no skill is required. Although some person pretend to be expert in it, claiming they have mastered it just to make themselves feel good or sometimes deceive gullible people. I read a post not too long about people creating whatsapp groups for signals in slot games and I couldn't help but laugh at how gullible some people can be, especially those who believed that something like that is possible. Anyone telling you that there is skill in slot game, that person should not be taken seriously.

I was the one who created the topic and it was the response I saw in the WhatsApp that actually led me to create the thread - all the rough the time I’ve spent gambling on casino games I’ve never heard or seen anyone come out to claim that they had a good way to predict casino games (except some that got some info due to the system vulnerabilities) and coming across that info on a WhatsApp made me curious to see if others have heard of it or if it’s just complete bullshit and it turned out to be a bullshit.

And as others mentioned the testimonies were made up and not genuine - the owner created it so as to convince people to pay for the group and then eventually scamming them.

Of course, it’s all about luck, which is essentially random chance. There is no skill involved in depositing $50 and repeatedly hitting spin until you win. Every slot has a set percentage of winning, and if you’re lucky, you might hit the jackpot, but it’s not common. Based on my experience, no one can win every day unless they are extremely lucky. The question is, are there any slots with better chances of winning?

Actually, it depends on each player's preferences, but yes, a higher RTP for a beginner is better. For that purpose, I won't talk about specific online slots, but I believe I can help you find the right ones by following these simple tips:

Check the RTP: Well, it's a basic rule, slots with a higher RTP generally offer better long-term winning potential. I personally prefer games with RTPs of +95%.

Volatility: From my perspective, smaller wins with less risk are better for beginners and it's a good responsible gambling practice. So make sure to choose the one according to your risk preference.

Bonus Features: Slots with bonus features like free spins, multipliers, or bonus rounds can provide more opportunities to win. You know, it's up to you to find the right platform that responds to your expectations.

This is just my point of view, and I believe there are members on this forum who are more experienced than me and can add more details regarding this matter

There is a skill-less approach when it comes to playing slot games online. Intertops are based on random number generators (RNGs) to determine the outcome of each spin, so all outcomes can be considered separate and complete dice. It means that previous results are not indicative of future outcomes. With games like poker and blackjack, some strategies may be applicable to skillfully change the course of events in favor of a player though as for slots - no such luck. Their default payment structures and return-to-player (RTP) percentages are randomly arranged based on those parameters. While players can make informed choices, such as playing with higher RTP or playing with better payoff choices, these decisions do not change the basic fact that each spin is a game of chance for every slot player, and view the experience as entertainment rather than money , . It is wise to set a budget and stick to it

There's exactly 0 skill involved in slots. It's a game you don't need to use your mind to play.
And moreso there's very marginal differences between each slot game. You could learn the terminology like RTP, volatility etc but really it's not a huge difference. And even slot companies know the players don't care about that so much and when you buy bonuses they don't even tell you if you will incur any differences in your RTP rates or volatility other than some markety stuff.

So if I had to play slots I'd try to stick to provably fair ones. Otherwise to be honest I have to say that the whole lack of information doesn't seem very attractive to me. It's for these reasons I tend to avoid slots to be honest because also very few of them are provably fair.

100% slot games are just luck if you win. It is very difficult to predict slot machine statistics, more like sports betting with minimal risk because it can be understood by players. In my opinion, it is also luck but at least it is more likely to be good. So many slot games that I have experienced rarely win big, even then it can only be once a month or a few months. So hoping for a slot win every day is far from hope

You know, even if you try to predict outcomes based on statistics you will fail. Because each roll is an independent event so the odds are not based on the previous rolls. It's just chance. This is a common theme in gambling and many people believe otherwise in what's called the gambler's fallacy. Since it even has a name, it's very widespread. Not everyone can win and that's why there's a house edge. In the long run the only thing certain by statistics is that most people lose actually. More than even the house edge. Some stats sat only 10% come out of casinos in profit. I would imagine with frequent slots players it could be even worse.

all in their control. those who can give victory to the game we play bet. if there are people who play slots get a big win before maybe lose big money or for beginners they will get their first luck. slots are very difficult to find loopholes to be able to win. because the server system that works they are free to control whether to lose or win. because I see many people waiting for luck from slots but instead they don't find a bright spot

If you do have plans on beating up the system or simply with those codes then you are really just that similarly taking up some suicide. Why? there's no way on beating up the system on which we know that house do always win at the end and there's no way that you could really able to take up some advantage and just on any other luck based games on which there's no way that you could really be able to beat up something like this and this is why it would really be that important that you should really be that realistically thinking that you should really be doing gambling for the sake of fun and not making yourself that desperate on being a winner.
People do usually mess up their lives on the time or moment that they will really be having those wishful thinking that they could win up big so easily without even trying out to realize that everything would really be basing on the odds or chance for you to deal on with. Skill based games on which of course you would be having that kind of advantage which it will really be basing up into the experience and knowledge you do know
on a particular sport. This is why it would really be that significant or basing up on what you are really that dealing into.

Talking about slot games on which this is something that will really be that pertains about pure luck thing. There's no way that you could really be able to have those kind of patterns or applying some strategies on the moment you do play on which this is really just that basically needing up to pull or press that roll lever or even going into those physical places on dealing with real slot machines.I dont really see any skills involved with this on which you could really be able to apply. Yes,  you could really be having those kind of behaviors on the way you do bet or play but never ever make yourself that being too positive or really that very
too hopeful that you could win up big with playing gambling, on the time that you would really be pursuing things then this is where you would really be making yourself having that kind of desperation.

[Poker Player]

There will always be a house edge in slots. Meaning to say, the probability of winning is always against you. So, in the long run, the statistics will prevail.

This can be taken as an example to generalize. If you are betting on a game that has a House Edge or a Return to Player, it is because it is not a skill game. They are two sides of the same thing, so if the HE is 2% the RTP is 98%. This is why in the long run it doesn't matter what "strategies" you want to try.

Those aren't skills lol, or at least are related to any type of skill you have. They're more like tricks more than skills really. It's taking advantage of a system that has many competitors amongst each other, hence why there are some that are a lot better than others (in terms of, say, bonuses, RTP, etc). Nothing new really, pretty standard stuff that happens whenever an industry grows too big, not really limited to gambling.

And even with these so-called "advantages", casinos are still in the end businesses. House edge will ALWAYS be against you, meaning you still lose in the long run. There's been rare instances where house edge was removed fro some players temporarily but that's because they're something similar to a VVVIP or something.

[retreat]

In a game that relies on luck like slots, no matter what strategy you use, it will be useless since the casino has a "house edge" which always gives it an advantage over the players. Casinos have designed their games with a low probability of winning from the start, so if someone wants to win or get a jackpot from slots, then they need to have good luck on that day.

[Jody.Drummer]

Yes, that's clear, or what I mean is that there are no skills that can be applied in this type of slot game, and there is also no way to influence the outcome of the game, unlike other types of bets such as sports where there are statistics or a team's track record that can be used as a consideration for making decisions that have a greater chance, simply as you said OP that slots are random games that depend on luck to win.

Regarding the previous RTP, I really had high confidence in the RTP percentage provided by the casino, which made it very easy for me to make aggressive decisions when I saw a percentage of 95% on one type of game, but in the end I realized that actually the RTP provided by the casino is part of their strategy to make gamblers feel more interested in playing, or simply I might say that the RTP machine does not always match the performance of the game, in the sense that when you see the RTP on one of the games is 95%, it does not mean that the game will always run well, I have tried and proven it.

So never put high hopes of winning just because you see that the game has an RTP percentage above 95%, in the end it depends on how lucky you are at that time.

When discussing poker and blackjack games, I agree that these games include skills so there must be a strategy used so that there is a chance of increasing victory or as you say changing the course of gambling to maybe be more profitable, but even so, I think luck is still involved. Some people who gamble poker or blackjack as well as others that require skill must have a strategy, but it's different from slot gambling which in my opinion is actually just a matter of luck but there are people who are confident in having a strategy to win at slot gambling, actually that is the right of each, but I think the strategy applied to slot gambling has no effect at all.
In slot gambling it is not strange that there is such a thing as RTP, some people think that RTP is a benchmark that games that have a high percentage of RTP are good games (most likely you can win). But I myself think it doesn't affect anything at all, including the victory. So for slot gambling in my opinion is purely dependent on luck, but with other gambling there are indeed those who use skills.

Slot games just like every other casino games are strictly based on luck, there are no skill sets to learn that will constantly put you in profit, if there was a possibility in that then a lot of people would have made millions from gambling...casino games are uncertain, you can't predict the outcome of a particular round but with risk management you can have a Little leverage..Not being greedy would help you minimize losses and aiming for just doubling your stake alone instead of thinking of tripling or making it x5

We have different preference but it is fine ofc, I prefer to play high-extreme volatility because I like to hunt big multiplier.
I dont like regular small wins because I do not play big per spin as mostly I use the allowed minimum bet on the slot so I can play longer with it while hunting the big multiplier.

Bonus Features: Slots with bonus features like free spins, multipliers, or bonus rounds can provide more opportunities to win. You know, it's up to you to find the right platform that responds to your expectations.

Dont forget about bonus buy feature, it is something popular since few years back although not all slot provider implement it but recently almost all popular slot provider implement it on their games.

That luck has also been regulated by the system, maybe a new account will be given a win at first but then will only get a loss and this will play the psychology of every gambler to continue to increase the amount of money used for slot games.

Players have to be wise in slot games, not too FOMO to get big jackpots, have to be aware when getting big wins at the beginning, and it's a sign to stop.
But the truth is that more of them don't stop and are too greedy.

I play more Sportsbook and pick a team that has the potential to win because we can do our research first, although it also depends on luck, but not completely.

When it comes to slots, there is an RTP and there is a live RTP. Metawin.com had live RTP before that showed you how much the slot was paying live but they removed this option because people were confused, and couldn't understand what was the difference between RTP and live RTP.

I think that live RTP is very beneficial for gamblers. There are two ways to risk, you either choose a game with high RTP with the expectation that you'll drain it till the RTP is high or you choose a game with low RTP with the hope that it's the lowest right now and the RTP will increase significantly as you gamble.

[bakasabo]

Imo the only skill that is required for playing slots is to understand the moment when it is time to quit. Maybe it is also necessary to know basic math to understand when multiple lines is not the best option in some spins scenarios. Maybe a gambler must be a little bit more experience and not to forget to check game rules if he is to hunt for free spins. Otherwise, pressing "spin" button does not require any skill.

[ethereumhunter]

Playing slot needs luck so you will not wins from slot games if you don't have luck because slot game is one of gambling games based on the luck. But many people not thinks about that and still thinks they can win someday so that is why many people keeps trying to playing slot games and will deposit more and more money. They will not thinks that if they can wins for some money, they can must stops playing slot game and take a rest and calm down their minds but they will still playing the games and chase the win.

Even the provider say you can win much money, that doesn't guarantee for you to win because as long as you don't have luck, you will still lose your money. RTP can't guarantee you to win so you must still control your money and not use too big money especially if you can accept a big lose. That is for all gamblers so they will always limits their money and only use the money they can afford to lose.

It is impossible to have any skill in slot games because it is purely based on luck and nothing more. This is why people that don't have any skilled game that they know will prefer playing slots when gambling because it does not involve any skill to hit the jackpot. Whoever is gambling on slot knows this and that is why you see more of females playing slot games. Slot is 100% of luck.

You are absolutely right, but there is one factor in people's analytical thinking that can be used when playing slots. I mean that every player should have an understanding of how much he is in profit from slots. And his desire to stop and not play anymore should depend on this. Therefore, it is advisable for a gambler to remember how much he has lost in slots, because when he wins, he should stop the game and leave with the winnings.

Oouch....should one consider how much profit he has made in slot in order for him to stop gambling at the right time? Profit making is by luck and I believe most gamblers have run at loss more than making profit. Of course, if you have realized that you are gambling for fun, you would not want to lose big by only gambling with the amount of money that you can afford to lose. Slot game is fun when you do it fir entertainment and if you hit the jackpot, it becomes a testimony.

I think a good skill to slots is to talk about thinking that... you have to have them,  

Let's talk about providers, RPG, multipliers, who is hitting over profits the 3%-5% that goes to the house, etc. but about skills... perhaps the only good characteristic of a slots player is always having the ability to do "100" spins whenever he feels like it, if he can do it every day, and at every hour, every minute, etc. then maybe...

I agree with you. Even if you have a good knowledge of the system of the casino you are playing but in the end the casino machine has a system that you cannot predict. What you can do is just look at the possibility of your chances of winning a big multiplier or jackpot. I have seen some ridiculous things done by some gamblers. They try to find a room with a certain pattern and then they read a theory that shows a pattern has a certain percentage chance of producing a jackpot. I think this is very funny because if slot games can be predicted, there will be a lot of people who become winners and this is very detrimental to the casino owner.

True, the only reason why many people say that the type of slot game is a casino game that depends entirely on luck is because there is indeed no data that can be used as a consideration or analysis material to produce decisions that are more likely to win, the possibility of winning is always there, but the chances of getting a big win like x1000 or more are very small, and even reaching x2 of the capital is very difficult or very rare.

Casino games are always uncertain, because of course there is nothing that can be used as a way to at least know what is likely to  happen, but players often say that they already have a new way to beat the dealer, even though it is nothing more than a hallucination that arises due to high levels of hope and self-confidence.

In gambling there are no skills or special strategies especially when it comes to casino games like slot. I tried slot one time and I have to say that the game is really hard to win , maybe it's just my experience with it but I think winning this game is purely based on luck. People might have a winning streak and think that they have a pattern that works only to be disappointed after a short period of time when it fails
There are no skills that are definite, it's all about luck because the game was designed for the house to be In profit
