Lobstermania 4 does have accumulation. Above reels 2-4, the "OO" in "LOOT" fills in and triggers a feature. Shown below, both reels 2 & 4 have features in progress, and reel 3 is one away:

If someone walked away from this, it would likely be a significantly +EV opportunity.

But you can only play it for one or two spins, and then the advantage has elapsed.

First three weeks of forced slot play: 55-60% of FP harvested.
Don't know how regular slotees do it.
Could vulturing be an answer?
Nah. Way too complicated for this old dog.
Those are outlier returns unless you're either betting $25 a spin, or unnecessarily playing the money through more than 1x.

Slots are the #1 category in the casino, so there's plenty of info available. Some of it is wrong, but in most cases that's apparent if you understand basic principles. If you want to vulture, search for "advantage" slots.

If you want low volatility, there are discussions all over the place on the subject. Just for example, there's an IGT game called Lucky Lines that guarantees at least one winning combination per spin with all 20 lines played. On the video I watched, the worst possible spin result was 25c on a $1 bet.
Using a Wildman developed, and suggested, plan of attack. Playing 5 lines on a 9 line machine of some sort. 5c denom. one per line for a boring as hell 25c per tug (Love that word, AP I think, maybe dinghy) so no balls out play here just take a ticket after 80-100-400 tugs :D . Just horse sheet results so far. Will soldier on because of no other option :?

To all slot knowledgeable posters I shudder to think of the ill-spent hours needed to gain such a level of expertise. Hopefully you were AP'ing the hell out of them

What the hell do I know. :?

But what the hell do I know. :?

This stuff is all out of my league, bt there is a reason the Mrs just plays Stinking Rich 5 minutes. She either hits bonuses right away or it goes into a long dud streak. No in between for her.

I love that idea. Most of those sites give you regular opportunities to replenish your free chips at the click of a button, and if you do run out, you can just switch over to free chips at another site.

Yes, if you know which games you're considering, you can google for play options on your choice of platform: Facebook, mobile app, web. Some slot play sites have arrangements with particular slot manufacturers, while others offer games unrelated to actual casino products.

I don't know all the business models, but many sites rely on chip sales, so you can expect pressure to purchase after you run your free chip balance down to zero.

If you just want to observe game play, such as to see how the bonus rounds function, go to YouTube.
