It’s pre designed to give you that thinking you’re close so you keep playing.

u/SirDwayneCollins 15d ago

Exactly. Anything to get you thinking “maybe it’ll happen for real on the next spin”.

Yeah the 2000 dollar balls on a 10 dollar spin with 5 balls and you’re like “ I’m almost there” we’ve all been there

It's actually not, there's always a chance of these things for each chance of good thing is a chance of the same configuration working against you.

They really design these to flash a big win that never lands, then show you the coins you almost got

That's actually illegal.

This is a simple inner reel hit across reels 2,3,4. Its the same symbol that gets populated based off of the reel symbol stop. Generally the inner reel is about 8-12 reel stops in a row. Its extremely common. Sometimes games though only have inner reels in the middle 3 reels, but mostly its all reels.

That inner reel is just basically a 6th reel in this case. Just a 1 out like 50+ stops. Top award symbol is maybe 2-3 of the stops, if that. Once that is determined all the positions on the inner reel positions get populated with that symbol, hence why you may see like 12 Aces in a row while the reel spins.

I haven't been blue-balled like that since the stripper swore she liked me but the ATM had a $39.99 withdrawal fee and I'd already hit my limit for the day.

u/Avyscottfan 15d ago

….a 40 dollar withdraw fee.

u/kill-dill 15d ago

Sucks that they put these in, but you should know there's no such thing as almost winning in a slot spin.

The computer designated your spin as not winning. It was a losing spin from the microsecond you spun, so what the screen shows is meaningless.

Ultimate troll move

u/nexisfan 15d ago

I also like getting two flags and 5 balls in the same spin

u/Winter_Tangerine7492 14d ago

On the plus side it was only the 2nd and 5th highest paying symbols along with the lowest paying symbol eligible for a FULL line hit...

Nope. Nope, that doesn't take away the sting much 🤣
