  • 4 Examples of famous slots from the past

In the olden days, slot machines were mechanical machines with physical reels and a lever to pull, but today a vast majority of the world's slot players enjoy video slots displayed on a screen instead. This has also made it possible to create slot games that doesn't have any reels, although most slot game developers are still pretty conservative and stick to the basic three-reel or five-reel configuration for the basic game, saving their unleashed creativity for bonus game rounds.

How do I bet on a slot machine?

This depends on which slot you want to bet on, but generally speaking, many video slots will give you the opportunity to adjust three things: coin value, number of coins wagered per betline and how many of the total betlines to bet on.

Example: Goldfish casino slots.

  • You get to select a coin value from five different alternatives: $0.01 / $0.05 / $0.10 / $0.50 / $1
  • You select how many of the slot's 25 betlines to bet on, from just 1 to all 25.
  • You select how many coins to wager per betline.

In this example, the smallest possible bet is $0.01 x 1 betline x 1 coin = $0.01 wagered on one round of play. The largest possible bet per round is $1 x 25 betlines x 4 coins = $100.

You can normally not pick and chose exactly which betlines to bet on. This means that if you for instance select to bet on five betlines, you will automatically bet on the betlines 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. You can't pick and chose betlines, e.g. Wild pixies slot machine online, free. play only on the betlines 7, 10, 13, 18, and 21.

Special symbols

Slot machines often have one or more special symbols that are more powerful than the standard symbol. A game developer can for instance elect to include one or more wild symbols capable of substituting for the symbol your need to form a winning combination.

Scatter symbols are also popular. If a large enough number of scatters are displayed at the same time, you will get a reward even if they don't line up pretty on a betline like normaly symbols need to.

If the game have a bonus round, special bonus symbols can be included capable of triggering the bonus round. With some slots, the scatters serve this purpose.

Examples of famous slots from the past

Sittman and Pitt's Poker Machine

Even though it wasn't called a slot machine back then, the gambling machine invented by Sittman and Pitt in Brooklyn, New York in 1891 is basically the great grandfather of today's slots. This machine had five drums capable of holding a total of 50 card faces.

A gambler would insert a nickel and pull a lever, which would make the drums spins. If you got a good enough poker hand when the drums stopped, you were rewarded. This machine couldn't pay out money; instead you would get something from the establishment housing the machine. So, if you were playing in a bar, a pair of kings could be enough for a beer, while something rarer like four of a kind or a straight flush might earn you a drink or cigar.

Getting a Royal Flush was even more difficult than in normal poker, because the machine only held 50 cards, not 52, and most establishments would pick out a ten and a jack to get the deck down to 50 – thus sharply decreasing the chance of a Royal Flush.

Liberty Bell

The first slot machine with an automatic payout mechanism was the Liberty Bell, invented by Charles Fey in San Francisco in the late 1800s. This slot had three reels adorned with five different symbols: spades, hearts, diamonds, horseshoes and the Liberty Bell.

Best card counting strategy. The biggest possible win was ten nickles, paid out when three Liberty Bells lined up in a row.

The Liberty Bell slot machine became a huge success. It was much easier to maintain than other gambling machines, and was soon installed in all sorts of establishment, from saloons and brothels to barber shops and bowling alleys.

Money Honey

Slot machines with basic electromechanical components began to appear during the first half of the 20th century, but it would take until 1963 before the game developer Bally launched the world's first fully electromechanical slot machine: Money Honey.

Fortune Coin Co's Video Slot

The first true video slot machine was created in California by Fortune Coin Co in 1976. The first production units were tested out in the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel, using a modified 19-inch Sony Trinitron color reciever for the display and logic boards to run the slot machine functions. After being modified to reduce the risk of cheating, it was approved by the Nevada State Gaming Commission and began to appear in various casinos throughout the city.

Three Bags Full

One of the first video slot machines with a 'second screen' bonus round was the Three Bags Full game which became popular in Australia during the first half of the 1990s.

Inscription. Charles August Fey began inventing and manufacturing slot machines in 1894. Fey pioneered many innovations of coin operated gaming devices in his San Francisco workshop at 406 Market Street, including the original three-reel bell slot machine in 1898. The international popularity of the bell slot machines attests to Fey's ingenuity as an enterprising inventor whose basic design of the three reel slot machine continues to be used in mechanical gaming devices today.

It was a three-reel, staggered stop, with an automatic payout design; a design that dominated the slot industry until the age of electronics and is still prevalent even now. Because of the dominance of his design, Charles Fey is universally regarded as the inventor of the slot machine. The Card Bell was so named because it had playing card symbols on its reels, however, a year later Fey changed the

symbols to include stars and bells and renamed the machine the Liberty Bell. The machine was a huge success and for many, many years the phrase 'bell-type machine' became the industry's standard lingo to describe the three-reel, staggered stop, automatic payout design.'(Submitted on March 25, 2010.)

1. Liberty Bell Slot Machine Marker Repaired
I have had photographs of this marker on my personal web site since 2008. On 31 October 2019, I received an email from the manager of the Inspection & Enforcement Division, Bureau of Street Use & Mapping, San Francisco Department of Public Works. The email, which included copies of the images at the top of my web page, read:
Do you know the party responsible for maintenance and repair of the Liberty Bell Slot Machine located at 406 Market Street at Battery? Your assistance is much appreciated.

I replied:
California landmarks are nominated by private individuals and reviewed and approved by the State Historical Resources Commission and California State Parks. The markers and bases are funded by private individuals, not the State of California. The slot machine marker was sponsored (a long time ago) by E Clampus Vitus, an organization

that is still active and has erected many historical markers in California and Nevada. I don't know which ECV chapter sponsored this marker, but I would guess it's Yerba Buena #1.
ECV YB1
PO Box 25012
San Mateo, CA 94402
If no one claims responsibility for the marker, two organizations that might be interested in maintaining it are the Nevada State Museum in Carson City or the State of Nevada Gaming Commission. It would be a shame to lose this marker. How many people know that the slot machine was invented in San Francisco?
On Thanksgiving Day, I was in the Financial District and walked to the nearby Liberty Bell Marker to see why it needed to be repaired. I was pleased to discover that the Clampers had already repaired it on November 10th and signed their work.
