The term
While picking the right machine is important, it’s even more important to play the machines you enjoy. If you like the simple, single payout line machines, or the flashy ones with lots of bonus features, then play those. Picking a machine based on its reputation or location is not an effective strategy — the odds are about the same regardless of where the machine is. Some people think that a machine that hasn’t paid off for a while is “due,” and therefore should be played more, so that it will eventually hit. This is a mistake.
