How Payout Rate Works (Part 2)

For you math buffs, this means that two horseshoes should come up a total of 250 times, 50 of them with a star and 200 of them with something else on the third reel.

Play online slot game. When three spades come up, the machine pays off eight coins. Three spades can be expected to come up eight times  out of every 1,000 plays. That’s the two times it appears on each reel multiplied by itself three times. So for three spades, the machine pays out 64 coins per 1,000 plays.

For three diamonds the machine pays off 12 coins. This combination is expected to come up three times per 1,000 plays for a total payoff of 36 coins. Three hearts pays 16 coins and is expected to come up  once per 1,000 plays— there’s one bell on each reel, so one is multiplied by itself three times—for a total payoff of 16 coins.

The most generous payout in the traditional slot machine is for three bells, which pays 20 coins each time it happens. Since there are two bells on the third reel, along with one apiece on the first two reels, three bells can be expected to occur twice as often as three hearts. The combination can be expected to occur twice per 1,000 plays for a total payout over that period of 40 coins.
