Player Advantage Slot Machine - Simulation

This page simulates the results of a Player Advantage slot machine. Through the Inputs section, you have total control over the PayOut Table, Maximum Bets, number of spins to simulate, even the behavior of the Player. For example, you can set the 'betting strategy' so that the player always bets the Max, always bets the Min, bets Randomly, or uses an Optimal betting strategy where the player bets the Maximum Bet Allowed when a Win is coming and the Minimum Bet Allowed when a Loss is coming. Remember, with the Player Advantage slot machine, the player will be told, prior to placing the bet, whether a Win or a Loss is coming on the next pull and will likely adjust their bets accordingly. The simulation is run using four separate Maximum bet values so you can compare the results.



Simulation Results

Conditions for the current results were as follows: 10,000 spins were run using the Optimal betting strategy with Maximum Bets set to 1, 2, 3, and 4. The minimum bet was set to 1. The Payout Table can be seen below.

Sample PayOut Tables

Sample PayOut Table Configurations
As with all slot machines, it is the PayOut table that determines whether the player will win or lose over time. The same is true for the Player Advantage slot, it is the PayOut table that determines if the player will win or lose. To prove the point, here are a few sample PayOut table configurations.
StandardA standard, playable, typical game
Death to PlayerThe player will lose his shirt and his house. We probably wouldn't put this in the casino. It is just to demonstrate that we still control the Payout Percentage with the Payout Table and Max Bet, NOT the win/loss.
Player's ParadiseThe Player will beat the house. Again, this is NOT something we would put on the floor. It is just to show that it is the PayOut Table and the Max Bet that detemine if the player will win or lose, NOT if we tell them if they will win or lose.
30 MinutesSimulates a 100 spin, 30 minute session on the Standard payout table.
