Whilst travelling over the recent holiday period we came across a number of slots machines in clubs and even on ferries crossing to mainland Europe and were horrified to see that the average payouts which are stated on the front of the machine to be as low as 70% whereas online casino slots are always in the 90 to 95% range. Many people apparently do not realise this or pay no attention the figure on the front of the machine or they would never play these machines. Slots at online casinos have probably the worst average payout of online casino games but the attraction is of course that with above average luck there are huge sums of money to be won with very modest outlays whereas casino games with better average payouts (or less casino edge depending upon which way you look at it) such as Roulette or Blackjack the only way to win big is to bet big. The other point which we hear often from online casino slots players is that can have a lot of enjoyment and play for a long time with relatively small amounts of cash. Most casino slots have jackpots of one sort or another but the really huge jackpots that run into the millions can only be won at those machines that are progressive slots and the same machines will almost certainly be found at a number of different online casinos which is how the jackpots can rack up so quickly but it should be remembered that you will probably have to be playing the maximum stake per line to win the biggest jackpots. This does not however mean that you must also be playing the maximum number of lines which can get expensive; the jackpot can be won by playing a single line although obviously the more lines you are playing the better your chance of hitting the big time.
