I don't think If online slot game is based on skill rather it is based on luck, Because people who play slot game don't predict anything. They just play and if anyone is lucky to win, it is obviously a matter of luck and nothing more. It is only in football gambling that one may say he has skill to predict and win base on his prediction skill but not applicable to slot game. Slot game is just like a spin and win which you don't even know what the outcome will be.

Slots, is one of the games that is based on luck. This has been explained in several gambling or casino sites that carry the theme of luck or skill based gambling. And slot, is one of purely luck based gambling types.
Here is the quote I took from some sites:
Quote
Games that are purely based on luck such as slots, keno or roulette will have no variation in these cases -luck wins in both the real and the virtual scenarios.

Yes, because there is indeed a significant difference between luck and skill based. If skill is absorbed, it will usually involve skill in analyzing the game, depending on what game is being played. and this analysis is what makes or influences the level of success or success of the gamblers' victory.

The name itself usually also contains "luck", whether it's lucky slot, lucky spinner, and other lucky games. Because of that, luck really plays the biggest role in this victory, while on the other hand, the odds have a way to regulate (manipulate) it.

There's exactly 0 skill involved in slots. It's a game you don't need to use your mind to play.
And moreso there's very marginal differences between each slot game. You could learn the terminology like RTP, volatility etc but really it's not a huge difference. And even slot companies know the players don't care about that so much and when you buy bonuses they don't even tell you if you will incur any differences in your RTP rates or volatility other than some markety stuff.

So if I had to play slots I'd try to stick to provably fair ones. Otherwise to be honest I have to say that the whole lack of information doesn't seem very attractive to me. It's for these reasons I tend to avoid slots to be honest because also very few of them are provably fair.
100% slot games are just luck if you win. It is very difficult to predict slot machine statistics, more like sports betting with minimal risk because it can be understood by players. In my opinion, it is also luck but at least it is more likely to be good. So many slot games that I have experienced rarely win big, even then it can only be once a month or a few months. So hoping for a slot win every day is far from hope

You know, even if you try to predict outcomes based on statistics you will fail. Because each roll is an independent event so the odds are not based on the previous rolls. It's just chance. This is a common theme in gambling and many people believe otherwise in what's called the gambler's fallacy. Since it even has a name, it's very widespread. Not everyone can win and that's why there's a house edge. In the long run the only thing certain by statistics is that most people lose actually. More than even the house edge. Some stats sat only 10% come out of casinos in profit. I would imagine with frequent slots players it could be even worse.

Obviously luck based game only. I can’t even find a way on where can you apply skills on slots games since it’s just spin and win game without any strategy or bet modification aside from the spin speed and the optional increase on the bonus chance by paying extra.

Skills is something that you can improved the game winning percentage using it which doesn’t applicable on slot games since the games is always random as is based on the RTP set on it.

Many people thought slot game was based on the luck, but those game not only based on luck.Sometimes it was based on the strategy, if you keep on predicted the slot correctly.The slot of the upcoming will be positive one to the user. So the gambler should try to keep on predict the slot correctly,the gambler who want to make money should play the game with more concentration. Because the game with more concentration alone help the gambler to multiple their holding money in the gambling site. Without multiple the money in the gambling site,how the gambler can withdrew the funds from the gambling site.

You cannot increase your chances of winning by playing slots because that is already fixed depending on the casino you are playing at. Maybe the skill you can build is knowing which machine or game would probably give you the best outcome for your games. I know it is just intuition, and there is no evidence about how you will do it. It is just luck.

To be honest, I hate the game. It's completely random and although the returns are among the highest of all casino games, which means the game favors people who play for a long time, I never seem to get anything out of it. Maybe I get frustrated too fast because I don't like boring, long lasting games, or maybe I'm just not made for slots, but it's such a boring game and normal payouts, without hitting high bonuses are just big enough to keep you in the game for longer. It's like the game is draining you at a very slow pace, but eventually you end up losing both time and money.

Actually, it depends on each player's preferences, but yes, a higher RTP for a beginner is better. For that purpose, I won't talk about specific online slots, but I believe I can help you find the right ones by following these simple tips:
My experience with slots is that although it is a game of luck, there are slots games that make the player feel very lucky because the probability of winning is high. I don't think is because of the RTP as I have checked it with some others , this is just based on experience. And I tend to play those slots games several times over. Most times I am lucky to have a good win, while at other times I am just unlucky. These slot games are Nolimit City slots.

I have tried so hard before to even see if there is anyway that I can by any chance learn how to predict the outcome of slot games, but it all landed on an empty result.
 
Immediately,  you will think that you can capture how to win, but the system will tell you that I'm not built for such. It's entirely up to you and how lucky you are that's going to determine if you will have a chance of winning on a slot or not.

Slot games and casino games are basically the same. You don’t have control over anything. You just need to bet blindly, and everything depends on the luck. If you aren’t lucky enough, then no matter how much risk you take or what the betting amount is, you will always make losses only. So yes, if you just want to try your luck without doing any hard work, then yes, you can try slots. Else, with your skill, you can improve the chances of getting wins in sports betting. I would encourage all the gamblers to try sports betting at least once.

That's the only way they can make profits with a house edge of just 5%..The casinos needs to conceal everything from you, knowing that you'll always chose for the better.. They don't also need to bring in any strange expectations unless it's been ascertained by the book makers.

Looks to me like a casino would deal with bookies that'll profit them the more? That's based on how popular and how much traffic they have... An already made casino that has a lot of users will go with a lower house edge than the usual, understanding that a collective interest is enough for them.

Though, it catches my attention when you talk about volatility you are directly making a reference to the amount the person wagers and also how often the person spin, which are directly tied to the chances of the slot machine itself and does not have anything to do with what the person can control, perhaps the only thing the gambler can control in the end is the bankroll management.

Also, it is worth it to point out that in the noest of the cases the biggest wins with slots are made by people who managed to hit a jackpot in a relatively slow period of time in their session, so they did not wager as much as they would have if did not have such a good luck from the beginning. In the long term, slots tend to make us lose money, that is a rule of thumb not only appliable to slots but in general to gambling.

Of course, it’s all about luck, which is essentially random chance. There is no skill involved in depositing $50 and repeatedly hitting spin until you win. Every slot has a set percentage of winning, and if you’re lucky, you might hit the jackpot, but it’s not common. Based on my experience, no one can win every day unless they are extremely lucky. The question is, are there any slots with better chances of winning?

Actually, it depends on each player's preferences, but yes, a higher RTP for a beginner is better. For that purpose, I won't talk about specific online slots, but I believe I can help you find the right ones by following these simple tips:

Check the RTP: Well, it's a basic rule, slots with a higher RTP generally offer better long-term winning potential. I personally prefer games with RTPs of +95%.

Volatility:
From my perspective, smaller wins with less risk are better for beginners and it's a good responsible gambling practice. So make sure to choose the one according to your risk preference.

Bonus Features:
Slots with bonus features like free spins, multipliers, or bonus rounds can provide more opportunities to win. You know, it's up to you to find the right platform that responds to your expectations.

This is just my point of view, and I believe there are members on this forum who are more experienced than me and can add more details regarding this matter Wink
You made the title of your thread look or pass the impression that you are asking a question that needed answering from other users, but amazing, opening the thread, I saw that you simply asked a question in the title and used the body or message area to answer the same question, it's not forbidden though, but you should learn to title your thread better so you don't get other users confused.

Anyways, you are right with you that you have said, winning in or on slot games is purely based on luck, but when it comes to finding the best slot games where winning chances are higher than the others, I definitely will also agree with you but then, there are also times when one can get lucky and win a really good amount from slot games that some people thought was not good or ideal to play on due to its low RTP, I've seen this happens a couple of times, and this have made be to stop being selective of which slot game to play, I simply play that which is my favorite, and if I am lucky, I win, if I am not, I simply bear my loss.

Really this slot games issue is confusing sometimes because if you play and the game is in your favour and you win well and tomorrow when you play that game, you will not have one single win. From the experience I have gotten, I can't really say it is lucky because you are not playing with your experience of games but it is already configured so it is the computer that Plays for you so you don't have skill. But if you have luck the game might favour you. At first when I played slot games, I thought I will be the one to play with computer like the way we play in real video games but it was the opposite.

Slot machine is a game category which you have very little control over the game's settings. It's one of the most unprofitable gambling games, so definitely skills have nothing to do with slot machines. It's a game of luck and superstition, and also one of the easiest games to play, becoming one of the favorite gambling games among elder gamblers. It's really entertaining to play, because the themes are fun and when you win prizes it displays awesome graphics.

Probably that is the catching side of slots, as gamblers keep playing them quite frequently, despite the high rates of losses and complaints after the gambling session is ended. Personally I have some good memories with slots, especially as a newbie, fascinated by the possibilities of profit the game promises. Those were good times.

Slots games is already known to be a luck-based game, which is included in other luck-based casino games like hi-lo, roulette, dice and others. Even if you deploy the known strategies such as martingale, still, the results would depend on your luck. There is no such mathematical formula that can give you high winnings.

In the long run, you can say it is unprofitable because you will end up losing because there is the factor of house edge that you can't beat. So when you feel you are already on the positive side, better call it a day and go home with some of your winnings.

From little experience with slot games, they are purely luck-based. I have heard gamblers say that there are some periods of the day when one can have a high chance of winning, but I have not been sensitive enough to dictate this move. Of course, new gamblers need to start small and gain experience as they progress. This is because they will make some mistakes at the beginning, which might be costly if the bet is high. Attractive bonuses will attract more gamblers since it gives them higher chances of winning. Sports betting is the right type of gambling you want to contribute to the outcome of your bets

It cannot be played with any skill that can help the gambler win all the time; if the player is able to experience multiple wins a few time, that is just their luck. The casino has already programmed how the game will run, and it's mostly in their own favor and if you are lucky to hit jackpots at the right, the best thing you need to do is to withdraw your winning and leave till next time, because if you stay persistent playing repeatedly to experience same luck, the casino will take back your winning. If anyone depends on their own skill in slot games, they might just end up losing tons of money trying to recover their losses.
Actually it's luck and nothing else, casino games are not like sports games that one can predict and that makes it to be a luck based games. Since it's casino games are all programmed it should that the games and the odds are always against the gambler since the gambler can not predict it. Jackpots are something that fall on a random account and it's always a lucky person that goes home with the winning/jackpot. But if it's a greedy gambler he wouldn't like to withdraw the money but he will find more and most of the times it doesn't end well for the gambler.
