How Many Paylines Should You Play? Slot Machine Lines Explained!

If we had a penny for every player asking this question, we could put them all into a slot game and play every single payline available, and we’d be playing for ages. But hey, that’s just us. If you want to know how many paylines YOU should play in online slots, then keep on reading, because we’re going to lay this topic to rest, once and for all.

What are slot machine paylines?

A payline in an online slot indicates in which positions identical symbols need to land on the reels in order to award a payout. In most cases, paylines can be adjusted, meaning you can choose the number of paylines you’d like to play every round.

Each payline usually costs 1 credit, and the more paylines you play, the higher your total bet becomes. Some of the newer slots come with fixed paylines, meaning you can’t decide how many paylines to play, but you’ll find many slots on our menu with adjustable paylines, as we have hundreds of them at Punt – and it’s all the good stuff too.

Usually, a minimum of 3 identical symbols are required on a payline to award a win, but there are slot games that require only 2. Paylines are an integral part of playing online slots, and there are many different kinds. Let’s take a look at some of the types of slot machine paylines.

Types of slot machine paylines

You’ll find various types of paylines in slot games, and some don’t even use paylines. That’s why it’s always important to check the game menu to understand the mechanics of the game.

Of course, you want to know what to look out for, and the most basic knowledge about the games is knowing how payouts are awarded, so take the time.

Here are a few different types of slot paylines:

Single payline slots

This one is rather obvious, as single-payline slots offer only 1 payline, which usually makes the game easy to understand and cheap to play.

Slot machines with only 1 payline are usually the classic penny slots with 1 row and 3 reels, and often have the potential to pay out large sums, as seen in Lucky 7 slot from Betsoft on our menu.

Play Now

Here, choosing how many paylines to play in slots like these is simple – you have no choice! Plus, they can also offer bonus features and free spins, even though they may seem very straightforward, which they normally are.

How to play multi-line slots

Slots with multiple paylines are the most common, usually offering anywhere between 5 and 30 paylines, and sometimes much, much more. You can usually check the game’s menu to see exactly how many paylines it offers, like the game menu in Wilds of Fortune slot that pays from both left to right and right to left.

Play Now

If you want to know how to play multi-line slots, just give ‘em a few spins – you’ll catch on in no time. Most newer online slot games have fixed paylines, meaning you can’t decide how many paylines to play. But when they can be adjusted, you’ll have the option to choose how many you’d like to play, and your bet amount for each payline.

Your total bet is calculated by taking your bet per line and multiplying it by how many lines you are playing. For example, if you’re playing $0.10 per line, and you have 10 lines active, that means your total bet per spin is $1 (0.10 x 10 = 1).

243 ways to win and more

Here’s where paylines start to go crazy. 243 ways to win slots don’t really have specific paylines, as they award payouts for landing at least 3 (in some cases 2) or more identical symbols on adjacent reels, regardless of their position on the reel.

Here is an example of how the 243 ways to win slot mechanic works in Grand Dragon slot from Reevo.

Many slots that use this mechanic can offer even more ways of winning, with the ways of winning increasing with every reel or row added. A slot with 6 reels and 3 rows, for example, would have 729 ways (3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 729), and a slot with 5 reels and 4 rows would have 1024 ways (4 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 = 1024).

It all depends on how many reels and rows you are playing. Therefore, deciding how many paylines you should play is not always possible, but some of these slots do allow you to activate and deactivate reels or rows, which is very similar to choosing slot machine paylines.

Cluster pay slots

Ever played Candy Crush on your mobile? Well, cluster pay slots are very similar, as winning combinations are formed by landing identical symbols clustered in groups on the reels, as seen in Mine Mine Quest slot from Tom Horn Gaming on our menu.

Play Now

Cluster pay slot games are a heap of fun and could see you landing massive payouts. Another interesting feature that many cluster pay slots offer is cascading symbols.

This means that every winning combination will disappear from the reels, leaving empty spaces for new symbols to drop in and award more payouts during the same spin. And there you have it – slot machine paylines explained.

How many paylines should you play?

Now that you know how slot machine paylines work and you have a good idea of the different types of slot game paylines, it’s decision-making time. There are a few things to consider when picking the number of paylines you should play, so let’s suss them out.

What is your goal?

Are you looking for massive payouts or perhaps chasing progressive jackpot wins? If so, you might want to play all the paylines, as many slots require all paylines to be active to award jackpots or bonus features.

However, you will find slot games that award jackpots at random, such as Book of Anime slot from Fugaso, offering Day 2 Day™ jackpots that are awarded daily, at random. But you’ll need to play all paylines in this slot.

Play Now

Remember, the more paylines you play, the higher your chances of winning. Opening all the paylines will allow you to capitalize on all high-paying symbols that land on the reels, and there’s nothing worse than missing out on a huge win just because you left a few paylines unplayed.

Don’t bust your bankroll

Can you afford to play all paylines in an online slot? Taking the size of your bankroll into account is very important. If you’re down on your luck, you may want to play fewer paylines until you’re back on track and ready to activate all lines to rake in those bigger wins.

The slot machine’s minimum and maximum bets are also important. For example, if you’re playing a slot with a lower max bet or lower bet per line, you’ll be able to play more slot machine paylines with a smaller total bet.

Which type of slots are you playing?

As we mentioned above, there are many different types of slots, all offering different payline mechanics, and some of them may not even allow you to decide on the number of paylines you’d like to play.

If you want to play fewer paylines, make sure the slot game you choose has adjustable paylines and that actually uses a payline mechanic, instead of the 243 ways to win or clusterpay paylines (even though these are amazing).

Lucky for you, we have hundreds of slot games on the menu, and you can even filter the menu by the number of paylines available in slots.

Common Casino Game Questions Everyone Wants Answered

The Ultimate Casino Game FAQ: Most Common Questions Answered!

If you’re playing gambling games in online casinos such as Punt, we can bet our bottom dollar that you’ve got a few questions – some that may seem impossible to find answers for. Well, as a sort of ‘WikiLeaks’ for online gambling, we’re about to blow the whistle on the most common casino game questions asked by players, so here they are.

How to know if a slot machine is about to pay?

Sheesh! Starting off with the million-dollar question, are we? Then let’s get the record straight once and for all: there is no way to tell if a slot machine is about to pay, period. If this were the case, casinos would be bankrupt, and online gambling altogether would probably not even exist.

And no, not even WE know when it’s going to happen, or how much. It’s all about the luck of the draw, baby! Slot machine mechanics combined with RNG (Random Number Generator) software produce a totally random outcome with every single spin, regardless of whether it paid out recently or not. It’s the whole point of gambling – you don’t know what’s going to happen.

Yes, there are a few old wives’ tales and superstitious beliefs out there, like avoiding slots where you have had 7 losses in a row, or the “Zig-Zag” method where you find a game with at least 3 symbols already on a payline and the same symbols above or below the line before you start spinning. Pffft! Like THAT’S going to work, Slots are random and there’s no way of knowing when they pay – end of story.

Do online slots pay the same as land-based casino slots?

No, online slots in general pay MORE than land-based casino slots. To understand why you have to be familiar with slot game RTP (Return To Player). Each casino slot game, land-based or online, is programmed to pay back a certain percentage of its takings to players, and again, nobody knows when, or how much.

The RTP percentage that a slot must pay out is programmed into the slot game’s software (yes, even land-based casino slots use software), and determines how much a slot will pay back over its payout cycle.

But why do online slots pay more? The logistics, for one. Land-based casinos have massive overheads with properties that need to be maintained, equipment that needs to be bought, staff, utilities, etc. Online casinos, not so much.

Traditional casinos simply cannot afford to offer games with the same RTP percentages as online casinos do – we get to be a little more free-handed with our games and can offer higher RTPs.

Plus, major online casinos have more players and generate more revenue (not necessarily meaning they make more profit) which means they can afford to pay out more and still cover expenses.

Also, most land-based casinos can adjust the RTPs on their slots according to the parameters of their local gaming license, whereas online casinos must stick to the specific game provider’s RTP for slots, and cannot alter them in any way. Our providers? Well, let’s just say they are the generous type – offering games with RTPs of up to 96% payback or higher.

Are casino games all about luck?

Yes, and no. We already know that there’s no way of knowing when a slot game will pay. But are there ways of increasing your chances to win in online casinos? Definitely.

If you’ve been keeping up with our blog, you’ll know that we offer loads of casino tips and tricks to help you go pro, such as online slots tips to keep you winning, guides on casino games with the best odds, and even information on progressive jackpots and how they are won, to name only a few.

We give you every bit of power you need to snatch those payouts in over 1,000 casino games at Punt. Have you seen our menu lately?

But to answer the question: are casino games all about luck? The truth is, yes, for the most part. If you’re a skilled and knowledgeable player, then you can improve your chances. But overall, casinos have been, and always will be, about getting lucky. Who knows, perhaps today is your lucky day.

How much do casino games pay on average?

That all depends on which games you play. The house edge and RTP payback percentages we mentioned play a big part in determining the average payout for a casino game. Many table games offer great odds, with games such as blackjack and baccarat offering a house edge of between only 1% and 2% on certain bets.

You can usually find the RTP (opposite of house edge) in the game’s menu, whether it’s a slot or a table game. For online casinos in general, you can expect an average RTP of around 95% or 96%. But we have loads of games on the menu offering even more, so take your pick today.

Are online casino game winnings taxable?

It all depends on where you’re playing from, and which currencies you are using to gamble. It’s safe to say that online casino winnings are taxable in most countries. We all know the tax man wants his cut, no matter what.

But this may not always be the case. Crypto winnings, for example, are usually taxed differently than fiat currencies – we actually have an entire article on whether or not crypto casino winnings are taxed.

But to be safe, always check your specific country’s laws and regulations when it comes to paying tax on your winnings from online casinos. And if it’s required, we highly recommend you do so.

What makes online casino games random?

Online casinos and casino game creators use RNGs (Random Number Generators) to produce totally random outcomes for casino games. RNGs are algorithms programmed into the software, and each time you spin the reels, it spits out a totally random sequence of numbers that tell the reels in which positions to stop, or which cards to be dealt in which positions on the table, for example.

Of course, we can get very technical with RNGs, and you can find out more here. And just so you know, RNGs at licensed and reputable casinos such as Punt are tested by external auditors to ensure that games stay random, fair, and trustworthy at all times.

What are casino bonuses?

Now you’re starting to ask the right questions! Casino bonuses? These are your tickets to the high life. Online casino bonuses offer players the opportunity to increase the size of their deposits, for free. Heck, some casinos (including us) even give away bonuses without you even needing to deposit.

The most popular type of casino bonus is a welcome bonus/package. These bonuses are offered to new players when joining the casino, and often put out thousands of dollars on top of your original first deposit.

At Punt Casino, for example, players can power up with a bonus on their first 3 deposits, with the Punt Welcome Package offering 6 BTC and a $25 Free Chip in total.

1st Deposit: 125% bonus up to 3 BTC and a $25 Free Chip
2nd Deposit: 75% bonus up to 2 BTC
3rd Deposit: 75% bonus up to 1 BTC

But there are many different types of casino bonuses to choose from. You can scoop up some free spins, claim weekly deposit bonuses, get lucky with no-deposit bonuses, and even win bonus funds or free spins in tournaments and promotional games.

What pays more – table games or slots?

All the pros out there will probably tell you that table games trump slots, and for many reasons, this is true. However, we like to think there is a perfect balance between the 2.

You see, although many table games will offer better odds or lower house advantages than most slots, some slot games have the power to change your life with a single spin. Jackpot slots are huge in online casinos and have made many players a megabuck or 2.

There are table games out there that offer jackpots too, don’t get us wrong. But if you’re after big wins, slots are the way to go. Table games may give you better odds and are loads of fun to play, so if you’re looking for consistency, give them a try.

Which casino games have the best odds?

The game of blackjack, as a whole, offers the best odds of winning in a casino, at around 49% in the player’s favor, and even more when using blackjack basic strategy. One of the most popular types of craps bets, the Odds bet, on the other hand, offers a smashing 0% house edge.

European Roulette also offers great odds on the Even Chances bets (Black or Red / Odd or Even). And slot game fanatics, don’t worry, picking a slot with a high RTP should do just fine.

Can I make money from playing online casino games?

Yes, but we wouldn’t recommend this as a career. There’s no way to ensure a stable income from online gambling. An exciting past-time and a thrilling form of entertainment? Definitely. But not a job – unless you’re James Bond, of course.

But online casinos have made many a millionaire, and the chances of you landing a life-changing payout certainly are real, as slim as they may be. If you get lucky, you can bag some serious wins – especially with all these secrets we’ve just revealed.

Can the casino manipulate the game I am playing?

No, there is absolutely no way that a casino can manipulate the game you are playing. Licensed and reputable online casinos such as Punt have to adhere to strict rules and need to be transparent with certain aspects of their operation – especially when it comes to offering fair and reliable online casino games.

Plus, it’s just not physically possible. Online casinos use external game providers to offer casino games on their platforms. These games use the provider’s software which cannot be altered in any way by the casino – simple. Did you think we have an army of casino elves that try to sabotage your games?

Well, it’s not Iceland (unless you’re 1 of our 4 players from there), elves probably don’t exist, and we really don’t have any hidden agendas. So no, a casino can not manipulate the game you are playing – even if they wanted to.

What is a Progressive Jackpot and How Does It Work?

What is a Progressive Jackpot and How Does It Work?

What Is a Progressive Jackpot and How Does It Work? We Explain

A progressive jackpot: what is it, how does it work, and how much can you actually win on progressive slot machines? Hold tight, we’re about to spill the beans.

What are progressive jackpots?

Never seen a progressive slot machine jackpot before? Well, just so you know, “progressive” doesn’t refer to a ‘liberal’ type of slot – it’s all about accumulation!

You see, a progressive casino slot jackpot differs from a regular jackpot payout because the grand prize keeps growing with every bet wagered by all players spinning the reels in the same casino games. It grows and grows – just like your appetite for big wins – until 1 lucky player bags the pot.

But there’s usually a little more excitement involved than that. ?☝️

Yup, that’s more like it! Because a progressive jackpot has the power to pop with a mind-blowing payout, and if you manage to bag the right one, it could be life-changing.

How do progressive jackpots work?

Progressive slot machines have been around for decades, with the first slot offering a jackpot that increases, launched in 1986 with the Megabucks slot game from IGT. With every losing bet wagered by players, the jackpot amount would be adjusted with a percentage of the losing wagers added to the pot.

Now that’s a pretty penny – $13 million? Sheesh! Today, progressive slot machine jackpot games work in a very similar way. But as casino gaming has evolved over the years, so have progressive jackpots.

Not only are they now available in the most famous land-based casinos in the world, but also in the comfort of your own home with online casinos delivering them by the dozens, or even hundreds, for you to witness one of these game-changing messages on your screen with a progressive jackpot on a mobile or desktop device, wherever you are.

That’s all good. But how does an online progressive casino slot jackpot actually work? Well, in online casinos, progressive jackpots are usually linked to a game provider’s network, with jackpot amounts accumulating through all the jackpot-linked games played from said provider.

This creates a big network of progressive slot machines with jackpots that will keep growing with every bet placed by all players on the same game across many different casinos. These jackpots tend to grow to astronomical amounts, which is why online progressive slots, in particular, are so popular with players.

There are also different types of progressive slot machine jackpots – some linked only to 1 game, whereas others may span across a whole range of games from a particular provider. Some providers even come up with different mechanics for winning progressives and create their own jackpot brands.

Take Fugaso, for example, one of our leading providers. This world-renowned studio has created its own jackpot brand called Day 2 Day™ Jackpots, with 3 daily progressive jackpots up for grabs that are guaranteed to pay out every day across various game titles in their portfolio.

How to win a progressive jackpot

Winning a progressive depends on the progressive slot machines you decide to play. Usually, a progressive slot jackpot award can be won by landing the maximum payout in a progressive slot. Other times, you may need to trigger special features or land a specific combination of symbols in order to trigger that life-changing win.

Then, there are our favorites: progressive jackpots that are triggered at random. Any player playing a slot game with this jackpot mechanic can win the jackpot payout simply for spinning the reels no matter the size of their bet, as is the case with Jewel Sea Pirate Riches, one of our newest progressive jackpot slots on the menu.

Oh yes, and those 3 jackpots up there – those are the Day 2 Day™ Jackpots from Fugaso we mentioned – guaranteed to pay out daily! And there’s more where that comes from on the Punt Casino game menu.

Whenever a progressive casino slot jackpot is won, the amount will be awarded to the player and the jackpot value will reset to the seed amount, which is never back to 0, by the way, but usually to the top award that can be won in the games excluding the progressive payout.

Progress to the next level with jackpot games at Punt today!

We have loads of jackpot slots at Punt Casino waiting to award your next big win. And now that you know what a progressive is, how it works, and how YOU can win one today, you’ve got every reason to hit up our best jackpot slots at Punt. Don’t waste time – other players are chasing those daily progressive jackpots right now – make the next big win YOURS!

RNG Slots – How Random Are They, Really?

RNG Slots – How Random Are They, Really?

October 27, 2022

Blog » Posts tagged "5 Reel Slots" (Page 5)

RNG slots really are random!

What is RNG and how does it affect slot games? We break down everything you need to know about RNG and how it’s used in slots in this blog.

What does RNG mean?

Put simply, random number generators are a mathematical algorithm that is used to produce random numbers.

Random number generators are a vital part of the online casino world. Random number generators do exactly what they say – they are used to create a totally random outcome with every spin of the slot. This means that the outcome of any casino game that uses a random number generator is determined solely by luck, with skill having no effect or place in the game.

So, in essence, RNGs produce results that are totally random. Kinda like this GIF.

How do RNGs work?

When it comes to RNG slots, each spin begins with the random number generator producing a random number. This random number is the only thing influencing the result of each spin.

What is the purpose of RNGs?

Random number generators don’t just have a place in the world of online casino games. They’re widely utilised in video games, card games, puzzles, the lottery, and multi-player games.

They ensure the fairness of games

This algorithm used in RNG slots comes up with numbers at random, ensuring that the outcome is different every time you play.

Random number generators are not only used in online casino games, however. They’re also used in video games, such as role-playing games and first-person shooter games. Here, they are used to determine various in-game features, such as the likelihood of landing a critical hit, the spread of the bullets from your gun firing, or an attack hitting its intended target.

They keep games from getting boring

Random number generators help to keep games fun. They prevent games from becoming predictable, monotonous, or boring. They add an element of thrill, and risk, as you’re never quite sure what the outcome will be.

They create the element of chance

RNGs are what give slot games their element of chance. By now you’ll know that there is no skill or strategy used in online casino slots – it’s purely luck based. This is precisely because of the use of Random number Generators.

Different types of RNGs

There are two distinct types of random number generators: true random number generators (TRNGs) and pseudo random number generators (PRNGs). Casino’s make use of pseudo random number generators.

Let’s take a look at what the difference between these tow types:

True Random Number Generators (TRNGs)

TRNGs use actual physical elements to create randomness – such as noise signals, which in turn create random numbers. As the real physical event is, by nature, totally random, the sequence of numbers is therefore impossible to predict. TRNGs are immune to hacking, and cannot be compromised in any way.

Pseudo-Random Number Generators (PRNGs)

PRNGs make use of mathematical algorithms, formulating a long string of numbers which are based on what is known as a ‘seed’ number. The seed number is the shorter string of numbers. So, unlike relying on an actual physical event (although PRNGs sometimes do), they are purely digital. They rely on the seed number and the algorithm to produce their results.

Are slot machines really random?

Every slot that you play at an online casino makes use of a random number generator. As a casino gambler, it’s absolutely imperative for you that you are playing at an online casino that is fair, right? RNGs ensure this.

This algorithm works to randomise the result of each and every spin. The RNG generates a sequence of numbers on each spin. Each number that is generated corresponds to a particular symbol on the reels. This is completely determined by the RNG, and this is why slots are known as games of chance.

There are a few things that aren’t left up to chance

At Punt, while the outcome of our games may be left up to chance, there are some things that aren’t. We will always guarantee you an excellent gaming experience, brilliant bonuses to keep you winning, regular new game releases, and the best quality play on whichever device you choose to access your favourite casino games on.

Online Slots: 10 Tips to Winning at an Online Casino

Online slots are known to be totally random, and there are no hard and fast rules to give you the edge and guarantee a win. Online slots, like all casino games, are games of chance. While certain casino games use a level of skill and strategy, such as blackjack or poker, online slots are purely based on luck. With that said, there are a few steps you can take to improve your chances of winning. Let’s delve into the top 10 tips to winning with online slots at an online casino:

Play online slots with a high RTP

We’ve waxed lyrical about the importance of an online slot’s RTP, and for good reason.

RTP stands for Return To Player, which is a theoretical percentage that a player can expect to win back from an online casino game. How does RTP work? It’s basically the opposite of the House Edge and determines the percentage a slot will pay back over a certain amount of spins.

You can find out more about the importance of RTP in online gambling, and how to pick a high RTP slot, here.

Play the game in demo mode first

Playing games for real money is incredibly rewarding! But if you’re new to the casino, are a first time casino player, or want to suss out a game first, then playing in demo mode first is a good move.

Get to know the game’s features

Free spins, progressive jackpots, prize multipliers, expanding wilds, scatters. These are all features that can significantly add to your payout potential. They work to increase your win amount, and add an extra layer of fun to your gameplay. The best slot machines to play in 2022 are developed by software providers who only have one thing in mind: innovation. Because of this, you’re guaranteed to benefit from the latest and greatest slot features that will do wonders for your in-game experience, and your bank balance!

Keep in mind that every slot game is different – and we’re not just talking about the theme. You’ll notice that each game offers a variety of features, from scatters to wilds, to free game features. Some slots offer free spins with multipliers, while others contain a progressive jackpot. Others provide the chance to gamble your win in the bonus round. It’s important to familiarize yourself with these features so that you have a basic understanding of how the game works and what to look for.

Don’t go over your budget

This rule applies to all casino games, not just online slots. Before you play, make sure that you have set a budget for yourself. And make sure that, no matter what, you do not go over this. Be determined to not chase your losses. If you reach the maximum amount that you have decided to spend for the day, then stop playing.

Play slots with the best odds

Another tip to consider when it comes to playing online slots is slot volatility. What is slot volatility? It’s how often a slot pays out. So, when it comes to playing online slots, you want to look for an online casino game that has a high RTP (it has a high payout percentage) with low volatility. Low volatility slots may pay out in smaller amounts, but they pay out more frequently.

Slot design matters

Never underestimate the power of a good design! We’re not just talking about game graphics, either. Sure, HD animations and crisp visuals make for more immersive and captivating gameplay. But the game load speed, quality of slot layout, mobile responsiveness, and overall ease of navigation make a massive difference to your entertainment experience.

In a world where everything is instant, and quality is key, you don’t want to have to settle for games that buffer or don’t render well on mobile.

Go for games with a high win potential

It’s all about the win potential, baby! The higher the max win, the more you can win (obviously). If you’re looking for slots that have the highest win potential, you’ll want to try your hand at progressive slots. These wins can sometimes go into the hundreds of thousands (even millions!). Plus, the higher the win potential, the more rewarding the slots bonus features can be – such as prize multipliers in free spins rounds.

Make the most of casino promotions

Punt Casino has a ton of thrilling promotions to keep you winning! Make sure not to miss out – as these promotions can boost your bankroll quite significantly. For example, kickstart your gameplay with Punt’s epic Welcome Package: up to 6 BTC and $25 Free Chip. Use this bonus boost to try out any of the thousands of games at your disposal. And keep an eye on your lobby (and email inbox) for weekly offers, which include crypto bonuses, free spins, and deposit match offers. Often, these will be on new online slots!

Play slots with Free Spins

Free Spins improve your chances of winning. What’s more, they’re practically free money. Most of the slots at Punt Casino feature free spins, so you’ve got tons to choose from!

There is no trick to playing slots

There is no trick or hack when it comes to playing online slots. The outcome of a slot game is based on luck and chance. Sure, there are things that you can do to improve your chances – such as implementing the tips we’ve shared with you in this article. But, it’s important to remember that these are simply a guideline on how to choose those slots that might improve your chance at winning.

Additionally, they are there to steer you towards making the right decisions when it comes to how you gamble overall. At the end of the day, it’s important to remember that the goal of playing online slots should always be to have fun, first and foremost.

In summary: top 10 tips for playing online slots

Fantasy, adventure, mythological, or sporty. Whatever you’re in the mood for, Punt’s slot catalog is sure to feature it. So, while you’re deciding between the thousands of brilliant titles that are available at your fingertips, keep the following slot hacks in mind for the next time you play:
