Actually, it probably doesn't make any difference - My understanding is that they are all pre-programmed to pay to a certain percentage, which I guess means once they hit certain trigger points in earning, they'll payout a certain amount regardless of the wager.


It does make a difference I reckon!
u will only play 1 line with $1 spins, what happens if you get 5 substitutes on the 2 line
you will be f****** spewing!!
must play all lines when playing what ever the machine value is!!!


You're presuming that every spin is "true" in nature which they're not ... Personally when I play them (or used to) I'd always play every available line and wouldn't have it any other way, but a poker machine is fixed in terms of results it can (and has to) produce.


I agree with Iron Fist though, I'm either all lines or none.

Never mate. They bore me. Rather spend the loose change on another beer, and use a note to have a bet on the footy/cricket.

many many times i have jagged 5 bulls or 5 dream catchers playing 30cents per spin on 1c indian dreaming.... 2 credits by 15 lines.... i do not subscribe to the "must play all lines" theory one bit, have seen the contrary happen too many times.

On the indians, I strictly enforce either 2 credit or 5 credits by 7 lines - I figure you're more likely to get 3 of something than you are 4 or 5 of something.

used to enjoy playing White Tiger- that was in the days where when you won, you won.
Nowadays, you bet 20 credits "win" 9 back, have a couple of losses, then "win" 4credits...

I barely play them, but I do have an understanding of them- that's why I barely do it.
