Dear Mark,
I don’t quite understand what is meant by a pay
cycle on a slot machine. Does it mean that over one
pay cycle, every possible combination on the reel will
appear? Melvin V.
Not quite, Melvin. The term “pay cycle” is
a theoretic expression used to describe the number of
plays required for the machine to display all the possible
winning and non-winning combinations. But, because each
and every spin is a random event, a machine won’t
hit all the possible combinations through any one specific
cycle.
Dear
Mark,
Next month I’m going to London, England. I’ve
planned a few hours of relaxation and would like to
try my luck at the slot machines in their casinos.
Any recommendations? Calvin R.
Realize,
Calvin, that by being a punter across the pond you
will need a special membership to enter London casinos.
The waiting period for a membership is 24 hours.
Another shortcoming is that all casinos in London
are limited by law to just six slot machines. Plan
on waiting, and waiting and waiting to lose your
money.
Furthermore, Calvin, your slot strategy shouldn’t
blueprint breaking the bank. The maximum jackpot
is limited to 300 pounds of sterling, or $450.
