How random are card shuffling machines at casinos?

Casino Players Card in Slot machine?

  • When I use my Players card in slot machines and lose a bunch of money then go back and use the card and win does that mean the machines are controlled from a network and know? I know the Machines have a RNG but I swear I seen on the news in PA when are casino opened that all the machines for the casinos in Pa where controlled from Harrisburg Pa. Does that mean they can see how much I lost and give me a payout then take it all back next time? Lol, I know I'm paranoid!

  • Answer:

    Yes, you are paranoid. The players card just keeps track of how much money you put in the slot machines. That determines what comps you can get. Casinos want you to play the slots a lot. The slot machines are set to pay out at varying rates. So sometimes you will win a bit and sometimes you will lose. Enjoy the times you win something. And remember that there's a reason casinos use up so much floor space on so many slot machines. It's because slots make the casino a lot of money.

Whether you use a players card (which it would be stupid not to use one) or not makes no difference on when the machine will pay. Just like it doesn't matter if you hit the minimum bet button or the maximum bet button. That machine doesn't care. What it does care about is that it takes in a certain percentage of money before the chance of it paying out happens. There are some machines that are on a network such as the wheel of fortune and indiana jones. These machines are "controlled" to pay or cause you to lose. They are just on a network so that many people can play them in different areas and everyone has an equal chance of hitting the jackpot.
