Some casinos do not mix tight and loose machines but maintain a specified payback on all machines of a given coinage. I frequently hear others claim that the casinos are more likely to put loose machines on the aisles and area with heavy foot traffic. However I am skeptical of this. Myths Below are some of the biggest myths about slot machines. Slot machines stop on any possible set of stops with equal probability As explained above this is not true of modern slot machines.
Some stops are much more likely than others.
Slot machines are programmed to go through a cycle of payoffs. Although the cycle can span thousands of spins once it reaches the end the outcomes will repeat themselves in exactly the same order as the last cycle. This is not true at all. Every trial is random and independent of all past trials. Slot machines are programmed to pay off a particular percentage of money bet.
