Ways to Cheat Slot Machines

The very first time that slot machines were introduced to the society, people were already finding ways on how they could beat these machines. They have this feeling that the slot machines are illegal and that no specific actions will be taken against them if ever they will be robbing it.

These people would tilt the nickel slot machines in order for it to accept pennies. This would give the player a much higher percentage of winning and even doubling ones money because the player is only putting up half of the specific or required amount on the machine.

These types of people also have another gimmick with the use of a blower and a rubber tube which is fitted on the slot of the machines. The rubber tube will be inserted on the slot and the air will be blown thru the use of the blower and this will create the same pressure as if a nickel was inserted.

They also have this trick wherein they are using wires and they will insert it on the payout hole and then once the machines will deliver the coins won by the said player, they will twist the said wire and thus will make the slot machine drop extra coins more.

Slot machine players also discovered that if they will be pulling the lever slow and fast continuously, they would be able to control the wheel's spin. But they discovered that if they will continuously pull the lever so fast or feed the machine with coins and then yank the handle repeatedly, it would break that interior spring. This in turn will let them spin the wheel continuously without inserting coins.

There were also rumors that using a magnetic device, the players could also control the wheels of a slot machine. This in turn will make a player hit the jackpot anytime but this was not yet proven. Slot machine manufacturers already made something to counteract this type of robbery and cheating.

It was reported that the largest swindle grossed 1 million dollars and that the operators of the local casino did not suspect a thing. Their scheme is to infiltrate the machines and do their operations fast and swift.

Most of these players hunt for the oldest model of slot. Slot machines are easily robbed. But let us admit that there are still no hard proofs that all of these cheating were possible. Let us face reality, it is really very difficult to cheat or rob a slot machine.
