How much to bet on Slots Spins

Chances are that you don’t really have a plan when playing casino slots. Sure you might keep a close eye on your casino bankroll so it doesn’t run out, but it’s unlikely that you know how much to bet on each spin. The truth is though that it’s not hard to figure out how much money you should be betting on each slots spin. All you need to do is figure out your goals, and do a little bit of math on the side.

Before you can figure out how much money can be spent on each spin, you need to set forth some goals. When doing this, make sure to take into account how many days you want to play, how long you’ll play each day and the size of your bankroll. For the sake of our casino model, we’ll say that your goal is to play for 40 days total while spending 30 minutes playing each day. Also, you’ve got a $350 bankroll to work with over this 40-day period. 

After deciding on a casino slots goal for yourself, the next step to determining your money per spin rate is figuring out how many total spins you’ll be making. Now it’s impossible to get an exact number here, but you can get pretty close with some estimations. The biggest thing we have to estimate is how many casino spins per minute you’ll be making; in most cases, online slots players make eight spins per minute when everything is taken into consideration.

So if you multiply eight spins per minute by 30 minutes a day, you’ll get 240 spins per day. Then you take this number and multiply it by 40 days to come up with a grand total of 9,600 spins

The easiest way to complete our equation is to factor in how many lost spins you’ll have over the 40-day period. To determine lost casino spins, you need to know the payout percentage of the game that you’re playing. Now it’s a little unrealistic to pinpoint this number because most people play a variety of games. So we’ll just stick with a simple average payout percentage of 93%, which is common among many online slots games. 

Since you would be losing 7% of the time on an average spin, you can just multiply this number by 9,600 spins to come up with a total of 672 lost spins (0.07 X 9,600 spins). 

Now that all of the numbers are in place, it’s time to find out how much you can bet on each spin. Due to the fact that you have a $350 bankroll, you need to determine how much you can afford to lose on the 672 lost spins ($350/672 spins). After doing the math, you can safely afford to bet $0.52 cents on each spin to last the forty 30-minute sessions.

While it’s great that you can get a nice, even number for how much you spend on casino slots spins, things don’t always work out as planned in actual games. Depending on your luck, you will either last longer than the 40 sessions, or you will lose frequently and drop your bankroll before the 40 sessions are up. 

In addition to this factor, it’s highly unlikely that you’ll bet the exact same amount ($0.52) on every spin. Seeing as how most players vary their betting at some point, it’s difficult to stick with the $0.52 bets on each spin (if you are even playing a game that allows you to bet this exact amount).

This is why it’s important to always keep your average bet number in mind when you do deviate from the plan. For instance, if you decide to start making $0.75 casino bets, you eventually need to drop down to $0.25 bets to even things out. In the end, you’re the only person who is going to be able to estimate how much you’re spending on each spin. And if you can stay close enough to the plan, you’ll certainly be a much happier casino slots player in the future.
