How is Slot Machine Payback Programmed?
by Basil Nestor
Q I understand that slots and video poker machines are set to pay back a particular amount (93%, 98%, etc). If that's the case, then each machine must keep track of wins and losses and adjust the

Given this, there should be a way to determine when a machine is getting ready to pay off. How would I best do this?A Sorry to say, but slot machines don't track wins and losses to adjust payback. And games do not pay out jackpots to "catch up." Here's why...
Imagine that your favorite casino has a new slot machine called Crazy Quarter. The game is a coin-flip contest, exactly the same as the contest you can play at home with any coin. Crazy Quarter is "set to pay back" 100%. In other words, neither side has an advantage. Yes, this would be a ridiculous casino game, but I'm using it as an example.
The bet is $1 per flip, and the payout for a winning wager is $2 (returning your original $1 plus another $1). Again, this is just like playing at home. A win is worth $1; a loss costs $1.
Let's say you bet heads. Okay, you flip the coin and the machine produces tails. You lose. Now what?
Should the machine force heads on the next flip to "adjust the payout?" No, it's a contest. Every coin flip is independent. Neither side has an advantage because both sides have an equal chance. Inevitably, there will be a winner and a loser. But the machine is not required to keep the winning and losing exactly even. You might win three times in a row, or you might lose six consecutive times. It happens. A real coin is never "getting ready" and neither is a slot machine. Both are "set to pay back" a particular amount. The difference between a coin and a machine is that the former has only heads or tails, and the latter has a few billion "sides" that are unevenly divided into winning and losing reel combinations. The casino has more chances to win, but nobody (not even the slot machine manufacturer) can accurately predict how the reels will stop on the next spin.
By the way, slot machines do track wins and losses for accounting purposes, but that information has no effect on how the game is played.
