I Tried to Win at Slots with Strategies I Learned on YouTube

[@RubyVideoFan]

Your video is the most honest video in self control on gambling.

[@williamivanko7198]

There is only ONE strategy that works every time. Take only the money you can afford to lose. Call it entertainment expense. Parse the amount over the amount of time you will spend at any one casino so you have enough to make it fun. Be prepared to lose it all. If you walk away with money, GREAT! If not, you had a good time - just as if you went to a movie. During slots sessions, it does make sense to have win goals and loss limits. It is fun to walk away up (or not all the way down). In any case, gambling should be for entertainment purposes only. Casinos are a for profit business. No one can beat them or they would be out of business. Have fun, stay disciplined.

[@diashawncoles2435]

Just wanted to point out they wouldn’t go out of business bcuz like 3% always goes to the house casino doesn’t care on who wins

[@thedayzgod]

YUP that is what my mom said to me the FIRST time i ever went to a casino went in 120 was up 220 and left with what i came with was a little bummed but hey didnt lose any money technically lol

[@saltifish]

You can beat them, most people simply don't have any discipline.

[@ianowens5255]

That's exactly how I do casinos. Sometimes I win sometimes I lose, But if I go in and have a good time for a few hours on $100 it's worth the expense.

[@Sventy7sevens]

People can beat them, absolutely can beat them. They just either back those players off, or sue them for their money back.. point is it’s a lose lose even if you are an AP..

Not just time spent playing, but also searching and then driving to multiple casinos. Great video

[@kls9036]

Enjoyed your video. I don't have any expectation that I will make money in the long run, but after watching several "strategy" videos, I now come home with more of my money than I used to, enjoy the excitement of occasional higher bets, and the satisfaction of fairly common higher wins than ever before.

[@silverbeernuts4229]

Hello LUTT, I found your video very informative and educational. I too have tried the JJ advice and came back similar as you did, several times. I do admit one time I became a bit impulsive or frustratingly anxious and lost more. That "discipline " you speak of is critical to walking away "healthy" is the best term I can say. Thanks again for your video. At least I don't feel alone anymore.

[@LetUsTryThat]

Thanks for watching and for your kind words. I've actually tried these methods a couple more times (which I didn't record) and each time I finish up a little or down a little. It would be great to be able to walk out of a casino with a bunch of hand pay jackpots on the regular, but that's not very realistic.

[@silverbeernuts4229]

@LetUsTryThat yes, ditto. It's fair to say that JJ takes a lot risks than we are led to believe. When I watched his videos over and over, I noticed an element of risk based on experience that he displays without words. I bet he has a lot of those moments unrecorded but shows some losses, so it's believable or "hopeful " in the viewers' eyes. We all are gambling, so staying positively hopeful helps our psyche. But your explanation is the truth of the real world and its what is the norm.

[@ramonawiley7676]

It's a win if you go home with the money you came with. It's about having fun... I enjoy the games and the possibilities. If you try to make it a way to make money, you're definitely going to see some setbacks. I do agree that it's about money management. I've actually learned a lot from Jackpot Judo, and some of his methods do work.

[@Paulyfr3sh]

Very well thought out and put together video! Enjoyed it! Thanks for the good content. Hoping for more of this content soon!

[@LetUsTryThat]

I'll be making a lot more videos soon, but my channel is not a gambling channel so there won't be anymore gambling content any time soon. Hopefully you'll like some of the other stuff I have planned. Thanks for watching.

[@NorthLVLowRoller]

I played for about 5 months straight and ended my slots channel. You won day 1, now go back and win day 2 and so on. Your $500 will be 0.00 eventually its just a matter of time regardless of game, game type or volatility. Sure is fun though lol. I had a 8 trip winning streak and go absolutely wrecked my last day and quit entirely. I watch around 6 slot channels and watching guys with way more $$$ than me lose and lose quite often was what ultimately got me to quiting. Lastly it would be incredibly easy for any KZbinr to just record wins and edit those videos together like they have found the secret and win all the time but are actually just recording when things are going well. I would love to see you do a day #2 of this.

[@LetUsTryThat]

I agree with what you're saying there. I don't think there will be a follow up to this video but I won't say that it will never happen. I've watched way more of those slot playing videos than I care to admit but I wouldn't want to start a slot channel myself. If you're not getting at least 100K views per video you're not making enough to cover the starting bankroll for the video. Some of the guys who play very high limits, betting $500 per spin are sometimes fun to watch, but I don't have the stomach for it. Playing $5 per spin in this video wasn't easy for me. 😟 I did have a fun couple of days though. My plan for this channel is to just do fun stuff, try new things, visit cool places and document the process. If I make another video inside a casino it will probably be to review their restaurant or something. I probably won't push my luck in the casino.

[@NorthLVLowRoller]

​@LetUsTryThat that's awesome dude, I did incredibly low wagers and could stomach that but when I switched it to higher and eventually lost, couldn't stomach that either. One thing that is cool, if you don't go back you did win and made a video proving it lol. My first time playing ever (Last June on my wedding anniversary) we won $200 and that really drew me in.

[@LetUsTryThat]

One of the worst things that can happen to a potential gambler is to have a nice win their first time out. I hope you had fun on your adventure while it lasted and I hope you didn't get hit too hard when things finally went south.

[@MrEvtmazda]

The only winner is the Casino. 99.9% of people who gamble regularly lose. While using players cards, my local indian casino's are clearly changing your payouts based upon what you spend. For example, loose $500 and all the sudden you win $450-$500, ultimately just losing eventually. Vegas may be different but gaming commissions are corrupt

[@theinvisibleguests]

Sdguy1234 does that a lot only shows wins unless he’s live.

[@coatesjoseph]

Perfect example of the gambler's fallacy. Winning is pure luck at any slot.....anyone who tells you different or believes different is either lying to you, or themselves.

[@LetUsTryThat]

I certainly don't expect to win and I know I could have just as easily lost money. But I stand by what I said at the end of the video. If you're going to play, then having discipline and money management is important. Of course, it's better to not play at all.

[@dwiii1635]

Nothing he said is wrong, lol. Obviously it's gambling no matter what you paly in a casino. With proper bankroll management and knowing how each slot machine you play works, then you have slightly better odds. That's it. At the end of the day, it's you versus the random number generator.

[@theclassicliberal1915]

I’ve been going to the casino for about 9 months and have had over 70-80 hand lays because of my strategy and my friend Eric has been going to the same casino for 5 years and has only had 15-20 hand pays. My strategy is, if my bankroll is $2000, which is normally what I take with me, that entire bankroll is going into the same machine, and that machine will be a low volatility, old three reel mechanical slot machine with a $15 max bet. That’s 133 spins. 9 times out of 10 I will get a hand pay before the $2000 is gone. Sometimes that hand pay is right off the bat and sometimes I may only have a few hundred dollars left but almost every time I will get a hand pay. Sometimes the hand pay is 15k, 9k, $3k, $3750, $1200, $1500, etc, etc. I got an $1800 hand pay last night on a $2 max bet triple star 3 reel slot machine.

[@LetUsTryThat]

The aim isn't necessarily a bonus in the first 5 spins. Just some kickbacks of half your bet or greater.

Your tips are spot on people need to always need to remember they need to bring a certain level of discipline with them. Along with money they can afford to lose. Gambling with money set aside for your rent/mortgage etc. is something you want to stay away from at all costs. Setting limits is key. Knowing when to walk away is another. Great video!

[@warrensidney5063]

If you were playing to strictly beat the casino, Then I would agree with you. But, if you were playing for enjoyment, played all day and went home with more money than you brought, I would be very happy with that. The one thing I don't like about playing less than 25 cents is that is you don't get good kickbacks and leave, you aren't accumulating points for your comps. Playing 25 cents (or for me $1) is you build points faster with the higher denomination. I play for the entertainment and like to get my comps for free rooms etc. so going back to that casino means more for my starting bankroll which varies if playing local vs. traveling away from home. My wife plays the higher volatility slots for the entertainment value. But she plays a high number of credits. I have shown her that playing $3 on a dollar denomination is better than playing $3 on a penny machine. Now she is entertained and has bigger wins. She doesn't walk away with more money than she started with every time, but she was having more fun each session. I do like that you take these strategies and demonstrate them Nice work on this one!

[@videoslotgamer]

Nice review video. Ive learned to discipline myself over time and generally like using a $10-$20 per machine or move switch machines to reset algorithms until i find a game that starts warming up with a good number of bonus rounds. I posted a couple videos like for Shark's lock. I did try also implementing Jackpot Judo's strategy as a test on the more traditional machines and didnt doo too bad. I find that 25 cents works at max bet can work too to build seed money. Then bet $1 when i build up my bank roll. Did pretty well on 25 cents dollar top dollar at max 10 or 9 credits which qualified me for the offer bonuses

[@blymwq123]

If you leave after 5 dead spins, it may have paid out on the 6th spin. Nobody knows if it would have or not. It's random. However, my impression is, playing higher bet amounts gives you more wins. That's how casinos reward higher investors. That does not mean they will profit overall, but are enticed to return.

[@randallflores-qr8cs]

Nope......watch any of the high roller channels like NG Slot. I've seen those guys get destroyed on high bets more often than they win. He will tell you the exact same thing.

I watched some of the same videos, I remember he said to look for the older machines with single line- no bonus type. Double Diamond, Pinball, Top Dollar. And to play dollar demon at max bet-like Top Dollar $5 denom at 2 credits $10 a spin. To grow your bankroll, then scale to the games with bonus', and pocket your winnings. And at the end of the day at the casino you can move to penny slots with 50 pay lines, bonuses, cartoons etc.

[@LetUsTryThat]

I wrote down a list of the exact machines he said are his favorites but they're not easy to find, so I had to play the ones that were the closest to the types that he recommends. He recently came out with another video addressing that and he tried some 25 cent machines and a few others.

That paid for our cruise. I played a little more throughout that cruise, but was conservative. I broke even for the rest of the cruise. I did the same thing on the next cruise and won $1128, which again paid for the cruise. Between my husband and I, we manage to cover our losses and cover the trip.

With the comps I accumulate off free play (I try to plan trips during comp multiplier weekends) I dont pay for food either and sometimes spa days. This weekend Im also picking up a free ocean view cruise for up to 12 days to a destination of my choosing (handful of choices). Way I see it is at this point I dont need to invest any of my own money and can have a nice weekend once or twice a month. I always win but my issue is bringing the winnings home.

Thanks for the video. Its great to see people testing. ANd of course one video/attempt is not enough to test a system. As luck plays a big factor. From what I have read as I am just getting into this stuff too, is that no machine is ready to pay off. Its all completely random. And the number of large numbers says you will lose in the long run, the casino knows this as well. BUt if its fun then go ahead and play. I honestly dont know any game you can play where the advantage is in your favor. And when you do as in BJ card counting which is legal, they kick you out. That says a lot right there. They are only happy when they are taking your money. I have found Judos method does not work and I am not sure I trust someone on the internet saying my system is the best. LOL Cheetos anyone : ) .

You cant win every time but with good money management you can hold out and improve your chances for a good hit. The one tip i would say is if dont hit something in first 10 spins run. Alot of times slots give what i call trap games. First spin bonuses, nice line hits. That let you get ahead then takes it back plus all the rest. I think 3 of the games you showed gave you trap games the quick hits was a nice hit for .30 cents if had max bet would been alot more. Over all this method works. But on penny machines need to limit it to more dead spins. 3 to 5 is good for dollars. Nice video.

[@voicetube]

The only strategy I've ever heard that actually might hold merit (certainly in the longer run/overtime?) is when certain players will look for machines that have to hit a certain "jackpot" by a certain amount ... and that amount has gotten close (like if it says "must hit by $1000" and the amount is up to $990, or what have you). That said, one thing I do like about the "strategy" outlined in this video is that psychologically at least, it keeps the mood from getting to sour by being just stuck at one machine till you run out of money completely. This approach keeps one moving through different machines (or different denominations, etc.) which at least might keep the gambling play a little more interesting. At the bare minimum, it allows one to try out more interesting & sometimes fun machines with different weird bonuses and such; it could keep things more intriguing (as one is losing money - which with gambling in the long run almost always happens, of course).

[@LetUsTryThat]

I agree completely. I have heard people talking about advantage play. If you can find the must hit by machines that are close to the threshold where they must pay, you can play that machine until it hits. However, a lot of must hit by progressives are connected to a bank of machines so you would have to have a team sit at all of the machines so some lucky person doesn't come in and grab the progressive before you do. I also like the fact that you put the word "strategy" in quotes. There really isn't much strategy for playing slots. It's not like poker or blackjack where the way you play has a significant effect on the outcome. I certainly wouldn't recommend that people gamble or suggest that they can enter a casino and expect to win. But if someone is going to play, then having discipline and money management would be a good idea. I feel like you completely understand the way I approach gambling and that with this video I was just having a little fun. Some people in the comments think that I'm suggesting that you can go in and beat the casinos or that I'm peddling bad advice or something. I'm not giving advice or suggesting that there is some secret to winning consistently. Thanks for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts.

[@voicetube]

@@LetUsTryThat Thanks for your reply! When I mentioned the "advantage play" idea, I guess I forgot to add that I recall that people look for machines that have the "must pay by" jackpot INDIVIDUALLY set (different from the other machines around it). When it applies to a bank of machines, I wouldn't try that strategy, personally. Basically an individual machine is getting close to a "must pay by" deal, etc. In any event, the usual course of action that I play by is playing with money I can afford to lose and considering it entertainment value. I almost always lose at the casino so I prepare for it. I guess one other factor would be getting at least a little more of an edge with complementary (or discounted) rooms, food or "free" play by using a player's card. And trying to never forget to use it ANYTIME I play machine. My last trip to Choctaw cost me about $500 in losses gambling, yet the room that they gave me to stay in for two nights were worth at least $160 a night (nice rooms) (in this case they just charged me $15 a day resort fee). I also got $20 in free play and $10 in food credit. Didn't make up for the $500 loss (before food and drinks) but helps to soften the blow 🙂 But just be prepared to lose. Gambling trips oh so RARELY break even or come out ahead.

A lot of people think that if you put your player's card in the machine the casino is going to do some shenanigans to make sure you don't win too much but if you do have your player's card in the machine you can get free rooms, meals, show tickets, etc. I actually have heard of teams playing banks of progressive, must hit by machines. That doesn't really sound like fun to me though. I'm not trying to be a professional gambler, I just want to have a little fun now and then.

[@voicetube]

@@LetUsTryThat I hear ya; my main goal for going into a casino is indeed, to have fun. Not sure if I would be part of a team to try to hit a jackpot on a bank of machines, but it could be fun, I suppose, if you're with the right group of people. It would sort of be like a "group pull" but with everyone playing individual machines (and splitting the jackpot at the end) 🙂 THAT said, I suppose it's possible that the jackpot might be connected to more than just one row or bank of machines but other machines in the casino, or other casinos. Of course with the "MegaBucks" progressives, I'm pretty sure those are almost always connected to other machines on a network of casinos, etc.

[@Gooey7x]

I'm someone who has hit a "Must Hit By" on an Ainsworth game. Only brought $100 to the casino. Lost $60 and put the remaining $40 into a machine with a Must Hit By of $10,000. It dropped after just 5 spins of $5/spin and I won $9,506. They can randomly drop at any time...they don't even have to be close to the limit. I've also hit smaller ones (ones that Must Hit By $500) and those re-start at $350 (NOT zero!) and I've hit them as early as $356. Total randomness yet oh so fun. BTW, those "freebies" we all love...come on, we all know the 2 "free" comp nights at Bellagio were paid for already in the thousands. Much cheaper to never gamble and just pay flat out for the room. 😊

you made money playng a rigged game thats desinged for you to lose, and even tells you openly on the machine what you will lose in terms of payouts ? really ? using a method that makes zero sense sinse there are no patterns on a machine just a random rng ? how did you manage to win ?

[@slloyd9892]

@@mcpartridgeboy lol. One time out of 35 years playing occasional slots. I normally play Craps. My wife plays slots and usually plays the big colorful animated slots where there are like sometimes up to 27 pay lines. So I figured I try a "low volatile" slot and so far I have actually made some profits off them. Key word is "some." I chalk it up to luck. I mean its a casino, you are slated to lose once you walk in the door. I just prefer to know, if I am playing a slot machine, what I am risking, how much I am risking, and when or how I am going to get paid, if I do hit anything. "Low volatile" slots have simple pay outs and pay lines vs flashy cartoony machines where I have 0 clue what I needs to line up to win. I mean I watch all the slot videos now , and they seem to always "win" , but we all know they edit out the losses or do not show them at all. I wonder how many thousands of dollars it took them to win those "hand pays" they show. Its not "rigged" its RNG and probability, which in general, is in the houses edge, which is every game in the casino.

I just got back from Vegas, and I usually play from pennies to quarter machines. I played a dollar machine and put a $100 dollar bill. I lost it in a couple of minutes with not hitting one win.

I have a strategy, if a machine makes you “think” you will win big. Walk away. Play machines at 2 am from people who just cashed out 2 spins, and winners 2 spins. I’ve won several times sniping after people. Who bet a bunch and won nothing. And walking away with. Small victories

[@RiskTaker32]

I got a question. How long did you play to win that and how did you find the 5 line because it looks like its 3 ( im a newbie )

Over the course of 2 days I probably played for around 12 hours. To find the 5 line machines I just had to walk the casino floor and look around.

From my perspective you gotta know which machine that gives and sticks to them machine. You also gotta know if that machine you like is almost bout to give bonus.

[@trip8159]

Hey LUTT, Enjoyed the video, just felt things were a bit overexplained. You basically retell the same 5 dead spin switch strategy twice like there is some difference to it between LV and HV machines. Also may have been repeated it when you mentioned the high limit area which you never achieved the bankroll to try (no biggie no one should gamble to win it's entertainment as you were nice enough to mention). Overall I enjoyed it and after checking our your channel and realizing this isn't a gambling channel thought you did a solid job of recording your experience in the casino. I think the only trick to the strategy explained here is it makes you slow down and be decisive with your spins even though they are all completely random. Good luck on your future videos.

[@LetUsTryThat]

Yeah, I probably over explained it a little. On day 2 when I switched to the high volatility machines the "strategy" is mostly the same, the only difference is you can change denominations or multipliers rather than leaving the machine. I probably could have just said that. I was trying to be clear but I think you're right and I didn't need to repeat the entire strategy again. I'm glad you enjoyed the video overall. I enjoyed making it too. Thanks for watching.

[@simpleman4308]

Fun video. I think the results were great. You made a little bit, I’m assuming had fun and if you used a player’s card should have earned some comp points which may at some point get you a free lunch or dinner.. if it was fun for you it was a good day

[@LetUsTryThat]

Your assumptions are correct. I had fun, got some free play, and a free meal.

[@pearltamayo9185]

Another part that Jackpot Judo mentions is to play $1 denom and $5 max bet for bankroll building. He tends to stay away from penny slots which he calls money makers for the casino. Higher denoms are mentioned that pay out ratio is a little better than .01 /penny slots. 3 reel machines with consistent payback is ideal payback is an indicator of low or high volatility…

[@LetUsTryThat]

The entire first day I played $1 denom at $5 max bet. On day two, I didn't feel like doing that anymore so I played a different way. I made a point of explaining that in the video.

[@juhs]

Yes you won 100 but you risked 500. I love going to the casino and go very often. I know what I take I will likely lose. If you're a gambler you know one thing to be true.. Any wins are just future losses

Good video and you actually might be onto something here. You forgot to add in your players points. These are good for food or freeplay (you should have added in your freeplay to your profit). If you'd bet a little more you would get more offers and food etc. Can you beat a casino? No not really. But if you manage money, use comps ie: rooms, shows etc. You can have fun and enjoy a good meal for a small price. Some years you win and some years you lose. There is no method other than studying machines and volatility. Quitting when ahead. Using comps. oh and LUCK!

If you beat the casino, why ever leave? Just move in. Especially at Grand Sierra…..they have actual apartments in the casino towers. Channels like Jackpot Judo and Cowboy slots may be entertaining at times, but the theories and ‘facts’ they espouse are just rubbish.

First off slots aren't the way to go unless you're just looking to have a little bit of fun and needing to waste a little bit of time while waiting to see a show or something to that effect. Craps is another game I'd stay away from unless you know the game and how to play and bet. Roulet is another game to stay away from as well. Any of those new type of crazy table games are very bad. Blackjack and Baccara are probably the best table games you can play and have a half decent chance to win just avoid the ones that have those crazy side bets and rules LOL. If you want to try your luck the poker room is a good bet, but you have to watch out some of the tables in those casinos will call in the card sharks and cheaters if the dealer or bit boss notices someone new and a new player known as a fish comes into play. You'll be fine just don't announce that you're new or have never played or tried playing before, sit down and play like you've been there n done that before LOL. Good video keep up the good work and you and your family have a good, safe and blessed rest of yer week.

These strategy rules are so arbitrary (why 5 dead spins and not 6) with absolutely no scientific basis.

I was entertained by your companion cheering you on. Thanks for posting this video!

[@LetUsTryThat]

Why 5 dead spins and not 6?... I don't know. It is arbitrary. I was just testing out what some other people on KZbin have said. If I had my own system that could actually win at slot machines consistently the last thing I would do is make a KZbin video about it. And not even because I'm greedy and want all the winnings to myself, but because as soon as the casinos knew what I was doing they would put a stop to it immediately. That was my wife cheering me on when I was lucky enough to win something. It was kind of funny to me when editing this video to hear the little "yay" when I got a nice kickback or a bonus feature.
