In this era of bigger and better slot games, which have anywhere’s from 5 pay lines to 50 or 100 pay lines, are the original one pay line slots forgotten? Everyone enjoys having more chances of winning, and many believe that the more pay lines the better, but is this true? Do you really have better chances of winning with more pay lines or is this just a myth which the casinos themselves advertise as fact? One factual statement that can be made is that to play these “newer and better” slot games you have to spend more money. If you have 50 pay lines, in order to have those better odds at winning, you have to cover each and every line, which can be costly, and if you win, sometimes you don’t even make back your bet! But with the original classic one pay line slots, you only have one line to bet on, and every single time you win, even its smallest win, it still covers your bet, so you have a better chance of keeping your cash flow on the one pay line compared to the 50 pay line. Now if you happen to hit a winning combination on 20 or 30 of the pay lines on the 50 pay line slot game, then you will definitely make back what you bet and then some. But is this a good bet? Are the odds that good, good enough to take the chance with your cash flow on a slot game that has at best only maybe 50% odds of breaking even on a bet?
This is something you need to think about when playing at your favorite online casino, or a land based casino. The old games maybe boring compared to the new and exciting multi pay line slots, but are they the better bet?
