In general, you should familiarize yourself with the rules of a particular game before playing it. This will help you understand how the machine works, and it can also improve your chances of winning. In particular, you should know about the paylines and credits in a slot machine. This will give you a better idea of how much money you can win and what payouts symbols may trigger.

Another important thing to remember is that the outcome of each spin is random. This means that just because a machine hasn’t paid out recently doesn’t mean it is due to hit soon. In fact, if a machine hasn’t paid off for a while it can actually be worse for your bankroll than a new machine that just started paying. Therefore, you should always read the paytables on each machine and decide in advance how much you want to spend before hitting the spin button.
