| Your slots odds then were much better.
The original machine, the Liberty Bell, was equipped with three reels, with each reel having ten symbols, giving every symbol on each reel an equal chance of appearing on the pay line. The odds of a symbol appearing on the pay line were 1 in 10, therefore, with three reels of 10 each, the odds against hitting the jackpot on the Liberty Bell were 1 in 1,000. Fairly good slots odds. Unfortunately, in today's technological age when we play slots online, the reels have no independent action. They are coordinated by the RNG to result in a certain payback percentage. |
