How to Win a Jackpot at Slot Machines

Playing of video slot machine games at the real money casinos is exciting and fun. But when you win jackpot, than to play in slot is much more fun.
A jackpot is the biggest win you can get for the slot machine spin. Usually the amount of the jackpot is from $1000.

On most slot machine games you will have to be betting max credits, or close to max credits, in order to win the jackpot awards. Max credits on most slot machines are between $3-$5 a spin.

In order to win these jackpot awards on casino slot machines you will need three things:

  1. A big bankroll (from $200)
  2. Steel nerves (In order to get the jackpot sometimes you have to keep playing, losing a few hundred dollars)
  3. The LUCK to hit a jackpot before your bankroll has been wiped out.

Hitting jackpots on real money casino slot machine games happen very infrequently.

The best method to occasionally win a slot machine jackpot is to wait until you are on a video slot game that is "hot" and paying out before you start betting the max credits. When you find such a machine that is the time to start betting big. There is no guarantee that you will find a "hot" slot machine every time you go to the casino, but to increase the chances you should go to the casinos on off nights or after 2:00 AM on weekends when they are less crowded and you have more open games to choose from.

If your "hot" game starts cooling down, decrease the size of your bets until you are sure the game is not "hot" anymore, then move to another game.

Taxes on the jackpots from video slot machine

When you win a $1000 or up jackpot award on a casino slot machine game the machine will usually display a "JACKPOT call attendent" message on the screen. You cannot simply cash out your ticket and leave the casino, you will be required to fill out some tax forms before you are paid. These jackpot awards are reported to the tax service and you will be required to pay taxes on them, unfortunately. You will be given the option to either have the casino take out 25% of your jackpot award to hold for taxes, or you can take the full amount and pay the taxes at the end of the year. Without proper ID you will not be able to collect your jackpot money.

Do not make the mistake of chasing after jackpots when the games are not paying out! Reserve the max credit bets for the hot slot machines and you will increase the odds of winning jackpots and decrease the chances of losing all your money.
