Slot Machines - 5 - Winner Paid Indicator and Play Buttons  Rate It [ 0.00 / 0 Votes ]
The Winner Paid indicator displays the amount won on the current spin. For example, if three liberty bells align for a winning combination paying 40 coins, the Winner Paid area will display the number "40".
Play Buttons
There are a few buttons that you will interact with at the ma- chine. We'll take a brief look at them here.
Play Max Credits/Bet Max Coins
Pressing the PLAY MAX CREDITS button bets the maximum amount of coins allowed and automatically spins the reels. Thus, if the machine accepts five coins as a bet, pressing PLAY MAX CREDITS will deduct five coins from your credits. Similarly, if three coins were the maximum bet, then three coins would be played and that amount would be deducted.
This button may also read as BET MAX COINS or PLAY ALL CREDITS, or may have another similar designation which would amount to the same thing.
The PLAY MAX CREDITS button only activates the reels if you have credits available.
Play One Credit
You can also play one coin at a time by depressing the "PLAY ONE CREDIT" button. In this case, the reels will not spin until the handle is pulled or the SPIN REELS button is pressed.
You can also play two credits by pressing the "PLAY ONE CREDIT" button twice, or three coins by pressing it three times, or the maximum number of credits by pressing this button until the full allowance of coins is reached.
This button may also read as BET ONE COIN or PLAY ONE CREDIT or some similar designation which would amount to the same thing.
Cash Out Button
The CASH OUT button, when pressed, cashes out your credits and deposits them as coins into the well below. If you have more credits than the machine will payout, then you will have to wait for an attendant to payout the rest of the coins.
Change Button
There is a CHANGE button on every machine, that when depressed, turns on a red light atop the machine, a signal for the change-person to give you service.

Slot Machines - 4 - Types of Machines-Slot Display-Payout Display- Credits Paid Display Rate It [ 0.00 / 0 Votes ]
Types of Machines
There are basically two types of slot machines. The first type, the Straight Slots., pays winning combinations according to the schedule listed on the machine itself. These payoffs never vary. The second type, the progressive, features a jackpot that gets progressively larger as every coin is played. This jackpot total is posted above the machine and can accumulate to enormous sums of money.
Slot Display
There are various displays on the machine that give you information about what is happening on your machine. We’ll take a brief look at some of the more relevant ones.
Payout Display
This is the most important display on the machine because it shows you what combinations are needed to have a winning spin and how much each of these winners will pay. On a straight slot machine, all winning amounts will be posted on the display itself.
These are typically expressed in number of coins to be won as opposed to dollar amounts. (Now and then, some displays will give you a dollar amount that can be won for a specific combination.)
For example, a winning combination might show a payment of 50 coins or 100 coins.
On progressive machines, "Progressive" might be indicated next to the payout for the big jackpot hand. That progressive jackpot total won't be posted on the machine itself but on a lighted display above the bank of machines. You'll notice that the progressive jackpot amount constantly rises when machines in a bank of progressive slots are getting heavy play.
Credits Played Display
The Credits Played or Coins Played display shows how many coins are being wagered on the current spin. If three coins are played, the display would indicate the number "3" in the area provided.
The Credits indicator shows how many credits you, have accumulated either through winning spins or through money entered into the machine. For example, placing a $20 bill into a 25~ ma- chine will enter eighty 25~ credits into your account. The indicator in Credits will display the number "80." Playing the PLAY ONE CREDIT or PLAY MAX CREDITS but- ton will automatically deduct one credit in the first case, or the max credit amount, whatever that might be on the particular machine being played, from your credits. You can use your credits by either playing them through until the total is down to 0 (which means you've lost them all!), or hitting the CASH OUT button, which will convert credit into actual coins and send them tumbling into the well below. Be prepared for lots of noise when the coins start dropping. But that's part of the fun!
