The first step when playing slots is to read the pay table. Located above and below the area where the reels are displayed on older machines, or within a help menu on video slots, the pay table lists how many credits a player will receive if specific symbols line up on a paying combination. It may also provide information on the game’s bonus features. Understanding how a slot’s payout nature is affected by its volatility can help players better manage their bankroll. It’s important to note that not all slot games have the same volatility; some are more volatile than others, and it’s possible to go for long stretches without winning anything at all.
