Standard slots are programmed to pay out after they have taken in so much. The casinos maintain a strict 1% advantage over the players. So once the machine has taken it's quota of 51% it will then begin to pay out the required 49%.

Keeping this in mind, pick one machine (or online casino game in particular) and invest in an hour's worth of playing at different times throughout the day. Most machines are on a cycle so that they tend to pay off at the same time every day or couple of days. Pick a set amount of money to spend, say $40 on quarter slots. Play that amount 1 credit at a time, cash out every time until you have spent just the $40 you started with.

Now count your winnings. Keep a journal of your winnings or losses and the times of day that you achieved them. Once you have established a good time, increase your stake money to $100 and bet max credits every time.

Below is a sample online slots diary:

Money at end:	M	Tu	W	Th	F	Sat	Sun
6 am - 7 am	45			42			39
10m - 11am		35			30	27
3 pm - 4 pm	49		62		53		44
10pm - 11m	42			37		45

Establishing good patterns is the key to online slots. Slots oriented online casino games are not random at all, contrary to popular belief, they are programmed, like we said earlier, to pay once they have taken in so much money.

By using our slots diary you will be able to track multiple games, and only play when others have paid in and the games are ready to pay.
