Online casino slot machines are a very random game of chance, but there are certain basic money management and playing tips that can maximize your bankroll and increase your chances of success and of winning the big jackpots.

Tip 1. Know Your Machine: Sounds obvious, but there are many players who play and then realize they have not played the right amount of coins for optimum payout!

Tip 2. Go for highest payback possible: It's a game of chance; so if lady luck shines on you, get the biggest payback. The player has a far better chance of winning on online slot machines when payback percentages are bigger.

Tip 3. Play maximum coins at all times: Payback percentages are calculated to include jackpot amounts. Jackpots generally, are only paid on maximum coins played. If you play less than maximum coins, your payback will be less. You want the best chance of the jackpot and a big payback, that's the fun of online slots, so play maximum coins.

Tip 4. Check the payback percentage: Online casinos typically payback 75 - 97%. Look for casinos that have online slot machines with payouts of 95% or more. They are out there and your odds of bigger paybacks are of course greater on these machines.

Tip 5. Play Video Poker Slots: If you enjoy them, play Video Poker machines. The house edge is less and payback is usually better if certain basic strategies are used.

Tip 6. Set Your Bank Roll In Advance: Your Playing Strategy must be set up BEFORE you play slot machines; only gamble what you can afford to lose. Going into a casino or online, it's easy to lose track of time and money. With the adrenalin rush of playing, time and money can go very quickly!

Tip 7. Don't forget single payline machines: If you have small bankroll, these machines are less expensive to play, so you can play for longer and you still have the chance of winning a jackpot.

Tip 8. Play only two coin or three coin machines: Your money will of course last longer on a two coin max machine, than on a three coin max machine. You will be able to play and have the thrill of pursuing the jackpot for longer.

Tip 9. Don't play online progressive slots on a small bankroll: Payouts on progressives are much lower than on regular slot machines. For the casual player, they are a poor choice to play, as they consume your bankroll quickly.

Tip 10. Have A Win Target: When playing online slot machines most players have a quit time or amount of money they are prepared to lose, but many make the fundamental mistake of giving back their winnings. Have a win target, if lady luck smiles on you, then quit and enjoy some of your winnings.
