When selecting a slot machine to play, be on the lookout for games with high RTPs (return-on-investment rates). No matter whether it is online or at a physical casino, higher RTP rates mean greater chances of success – yet many have misconceptions about what RTP really entails; hopefully this article can dispel them!

RTP stands for Return to Player and refers to the percentage of money a slot will return to players over its lifespan. Calculations is performed using several million spins for accuracy; thus allowing one to predict how much a particular slot may payout; also provides an indicator as to how much can be won from gambling long enough.

However, it should be remembered that this figure is just theoretical; you cannot expect to win such amounts immediately due to a random number generator, as each spin will produce different outcomes – hence why people who win big at slots tend to attribute their successes solely to luck instead of intelligence.

RTP of a slot is calculated based on how much it pays out in player winnings vs how much is taken in from gamblers over time, accounting for how not every gambler will play for an infinite duration. Therefore, finding games with high RTP rates should be prioritized, but don’t get discouraged if short-term losses mount up quickly – these losses should all even out over time!

Checking the RTP of a slot can be done easily by looking at its help or info button, which displays the percentage of total bet expected back over time by that particular machine. Unfortunately, some slots don’t display this information and it may be more challenging for you to locate their RTPs; fortunately, it can often be easily found by searching Google or visiting an slots provider’s website for them.

An unfortunate misperception about brick-and-mortar casinos is that their slots tend to offer lower RTPs than their online counterparts. While this may not always be true, brick-and-mortar casinos tend to have limited space and must rely more heavily on physical machines for revenue than they would with online slots – offering thousands at any one time allows online casinos to increase RTPs accordingly.
