Full Coin Play
Multiple-coin machines have several different definitions.
On a single-line machine, the player inserts from one to five
coins. If a winning combination occurs on the reels with three
coins in, the payoff will three times as much as with one
coin in. Four coins will produce a payoff of four times that
of one coin, and so on.
Another version of a multiple-coin machine is one with multiple
lines. By depositing additional coins, the player activates
additional lines that pay off if the winning combinations
hit. Some machines even pay on diagonal lines. This type of
machines is an enticement to get the players to increase the
amount of their wagers. For instance, if a player is only
playing one coin, activating only one line, and a winning
combination is hit on a non-activated line, it would encourage
the player to deposit additional coins in order to have a
chance at winning on those additional lines.
In both cases, the payback percentage and the house advantage
of the machines do not change whether the player deposits
one coin or multiple coins. The amount of profit the casino
makes will increase substantially if it can get the players
to deposit more than one coin ever play.
You should always gamble only what you can comfortably afford,
so you should avoid playing five coins if you can only afford
to play one, even if the casino tries to entice you with attractive
paybacks. The only reason to play the full amount of coins
would be if the slot machine rewards you when winning the
top jackpot.
For instance, if one coin pays ten coins for a particular
winning combination, two coins play 20 for the same combination,
and three coins pays 50, it would be to your advantage to
play three coins. The disparity in the awards makes it worth
it.
But if you can't afford to play those three coins, it's advisable
to find a machine that makes an evenly graduated payback for
multiple coins, or drop down to a lower denomination.
