Players sometimes believe that winning on a Class II slot machine is easier than winning on a Class III machine. Class II machines are similar to Class III machines, each machine has a pull handle or touch screens and are relatively the same size. Usually Class II machines are for games such as Bingo and other random number generated games of chance. A Class II machine lets a central service determine if you win or lose each hand.

Winning Strategies

Since Class II machines are usually linked together with other machines to try and win the same pot of money, some people believe they will not win if someone has won recently. Therefore, a winning strategy is to play machines which have not recently paid out a jackpot. Another common strategy is to play more often, by playing the slot machine on a regular basis some players believe they will increase their odds of winning. Since keno and bingo are popular games for Class II machines, some players choose to use the same numbers every time, which they believe will increase their odds of winning.

No Strategy

Class II machines are the ultimate in games of chance, and a player who goes into their gambling session without a strategy is just as likely to win as someone else who has a full strategy. All players who are playing on the same set of class II machines are competing for the jackpot. Playing without a specific strategy is a tip many gamblers use; this allows them to enjoy their time at the casino without worrying about following a specific plan or program.

Graduated Betting

The idea behind graduated betting is to bet more money when you are winning and to bet less money when you are losing. Betting on a quarter slot machine would start with one quarter. If the player won any money at all on that turn, the player would bet two quarters on the next turn. This process continues until the player loses. Once the player does not win on a turn, they return to betting just one quarter at a time. Graduated betting is done on Class II slot machines as well as other gambling games.
