>This is absolutely false. You are absolutely wrong, but your comment did manage to get mine to -1 point, so thanks for that. You are correct that slots are as random as the RNG within them (which, as it turns out, isn't actually that random [2]), however that does not mean they cannot be beaten. Slots can be beaten in a variety of ways: 1) Any progressive jackpot that gets high enough can skew the game's return to players to above 100%. Believe it or not, digital slot reels can be mapped out and the return extrapolated (example here [1]). On a progressive slot, with this data and the meter rise in hand (which can usually be easily calculated through mere observation), you can calculate the level at which the progressive makes the game positive. 2) Various slot promotions can be beaten. For example, there was a casino team that was tipped off to a promotion where a casino in the midwest was, for 12 hours, offering a double payout any W-2G win (any win over $1200 on a machine). So, they went and played a $100 slot machine, where almost any payout was over $1200 - essentially getting a double payout on every win. They had an enormous advantage with this promotion. These kinds of mathematically challenged promotions are not as rare as you would think. 3) Many slot machines have a "must hit by" feature, where the progressive must hit when it reaches a certain amount. Advantage players wait for these to get to within cents of the payout, locking up machines hours before and playing the minimum amount very slowly, so that they are in a position to win them. 4) Some casinos give loss rebates to some players that can turn almost any game positive, especially when combined with techniques that I won't mention here. This isn't necessarily limited to ultra high-rollers either - I am familiar with a few casinos where significant loss rebates start at losses of just $1,000. There are more. So you are absolutely wrong that there are not advantage slot players. There are teams of them that work in Vegas and other jurisdictions.
