Although they may look different all modern slot
machines work the same way. All slot machines including
single pay line, multiple pay line, video slots and even
slot machines on the Internet share the same basic computer program.
In every slot machine is a computer
chip that generates random numbers. A random number
generator or "R.N.G". When you press the play button,
pull the handle or click your mouse a random number
is generated and this number is then converted
by the machine to show you either a winning combination or a losing
one.
The final outcome of each and every
spin on a modern day slot machine is decided the
moment you start the reels spinning. The spinning of the reels whether it be an animation or physical reels sinning is purely to make slot more entertaining.

Every spin is in no way related to the last spin
or the next spin. Every time you set the reels spinning
a new random number is generated. It is for this reason that
it is very possible to hit two big winning combinations in a row,
it happens more than you would think.
It is also worth noting
that although every spin is random not every combination has
the same chance of being hit. The lower wins will be hit many more
times than the top prize. This is due to the fact that there are quite simply more lower paying symbols on the reel than higher paying ones. For example you might have three single bar symbols on each reel while there is only one jackpot symbol per reel.
