Casinos Games GLOSSARY
(Slot Machines)
Casinos: Bank of Machines
A group of machines, usually all of the same type, together in one
location. 
Casinos games: Multi-payline A slot machine with more than one payline. There may be three to five horizontal paylines and even diagonal paylines. Some video slots will also have vertical paylines. Casinos: Multipliers Multiplier slot machines have a payout schedule that proportionately increases with the number of coins you play. Casinos: Payline The horizontal rule across the center of the reel window. The symbols must line up on the line to hit a payout. Some slot machines will have multiple paylines that may be above and below the center payline and may even cross it diagonally. Casinos: Payout The amount you are awarded when a winning combination of symbols line up on the payline. Casinos: Payout Percentage The threoretical average percentage of money taken in that a casino's slot machines pay back to players. The percentage does not mean that all of the casino's machines pay back that amount. It is an average. Some will pay more, some less. Casinos: Progressive A game in which the jackpot starts at a specific amount but continues to grow steadily until someone wins it, after which it is reset and starts growing again. Casinos: Reel The spinning wheels which contain the slot machine's symbols. On video style slot machines the reels are simulated. In either case they are there for the visual effect and used to display the result of the digital reels which are actually stored in computer memory and 'spun' by a random number generator. Casinos: Symbol Each slot machine has a theme to it's game. For example Double Diamonds, Red, White, and Blue, or Double Blackjack. Each theme has a set of images called symbols that represent the theme and which are placed on the reels. Casinos games: Video Slot Machines A slot machine with a video screen on which the reels and other elements are simulated with graphics and animation. Wild Symbols When a wild symbol lines up on the payline it substitutes for any other symbol. For example, if you line up two 7s on the payline with a wild symbol it is the same as three 7s. Some wild symbols may also double or triple the payout, or even more. There are some games where the wild symbol is wild anywhere. In other words, if the symbol shows up fully anywhere in the reel window it is the same as if it lined up on the payline. Go top
