Results are completely random though and despite the math telling us we "should" see a certain outcome over the long term each hand starts out with the same odds of getting any given hand. The draw is where we have the advantage but again each draw has the same odds as the last time we were dealt an identical hand. This means the whole RNG thing could very well spit out complete duds every hand we ever play if we were so unfortunate. Not likely, but possible, no?
Now think about this though, I'm gonna get slammed for this one. VLT's are a predetermined outcome. They have a definite amount of winning and losing hands/spins. Have you ever been playing a terrible session of vp and said to yourself, "Come on, there's gotta be a good one in here somewhere." Well, in VLT machines there are good ones for sure. There has to be. If only we could know the amount of "tickets in the roll" there were. The Lottery posts odds for each prize for each scratch off game they have. They also post how many top prizes are left to be won in each run of a game and how many have been won. They stop selling game tickets when there are no longer any top prizes left to be won. I would imagine VLT's are treated the same since they are essentially electronic scratch offs. The games must be reset with a fresh amount of "tickets".
They do not give us this information though. Bummer. There of course is still randomness in picking the tickets out of the hat though. Now if a Vlt pays back 91% it is predetermined where as a class III game may have the probable outcome of returning 98+% but it is not guaranteed. It just needs to average a return % within gaming authority regulations for slots. Sometimes less than 90% I believe.
I personally definitely prefer to play true class III machines myself for the obvious reasons. But for the longest time we didn't have them here close by and VLT's were it without taking a long trip. My results often times were better or close to the same playing the VLT's than class III.
One more thing is VLT's earn the same comps/points no matter what you play and you can use free play on anything.
I also figured since many have said they dabble in the slots this might be interesting info for them when I started the post.
My apologies in advance if I did not articulate my thoughts very well.
