During
the recent time you would have seen the rapid rise of the
5 reel slot game. 5 reel games you see also have a bonus feature
or bonus game. With a very quick rise in popularity many players
we know now only play 5 reel games. This is especially true
in Australia where almost Las Vegas USA Casino are of the 5 reel variety.
Now
we finally have a good selection of 5 reel slots online, many
of which have a bonus round much like their land-based counterparts.
This is good because quite simply you now have more choice, which is always good. But are the 5 reel slots a good bet
compared with 3 reel games? Do you need to play max coins?

Reel Vs 3 Reel - Should I play Max Bet
Often on 5 reel slots you can select to play more than one
credit per line. We encourage at least playing all lines.
This varies from slot to slot but is usually between 5 to
20 pay lines. Why we don't recommend max bet on these games
is that you can often find yourself betting massive amounts
of cash even on a low 5 cent denomination machine.

Reel Vs 3 Reel Slots - Pay Out Percentages
Many players may think that because a slot machine has 5 reels
it will be harder to hit winning combinations. This would
be true if we were still playing the mechanical slots of yesteryear
but considering all slot machines now use a Random Number
Generator it is not true.

A
3 reel slot set to pay out 95% and a 5 reel slot set to pay
out 95% will in the long run pay out EXACTLY the same percentage
return to the player. The amount of reels are no difference
to this so in theory you could have 10 or 20 reels, if it
is set to pay out 95% it will in the long term.

5
Reel Vs 3 Reel Slots - Hit Frequency
When you examine the pay table for a 5 reel slot you will
see that there are way more winning combinations than on a
3 Reel slot. So on a 5 reel slot there are usually winning
combinations made up of between 3 and 5 symbols and occasionally
2 symbols.

This
means that you can find yourself hitting more smaller pay
outs more regularly, rather than one big pay out once in a
while. We have found that 5 reel slots tend to have a much
higher hit frequency for the low to mid range payouts. Of
course luck is still the major factor.

Continuing
the example above. If we were to play only one coin per line
it would only cost us $1 per spin. Then if you are playing
a progressive then please check to see if max bet is required
- normally the case with progressives. For all other slots
we highly recommend that you READ the pay table before playing
to make sure you will qualify for all appropriate prizes with
less than max.
5
Reel Vs 3 Reel - Conclusions
Choosing
a slot to play is always a personal decision, however we hope
that by reading this article you may have a better understanding
of the 5 reel slot game. But we believe that much like a balanced
diet, variety make things more interesting so if you have
never played a 5 reel game we highly recommend that you at
least have a few spins. You may never go back to three reel
slots again. |
