When selecting a slot machine, most players only look at the theme, the graphics, or the size of the jackpot.

Understanding a game's volatility is the absolute key to choosing a machine that matches your budget and your expectations.

The Difference Between High and Low Variance

A low volatility slot is designed to pay out small, frequent wins, keeping your bankroll relatively stable over time.

High variance games are incredibly risky; they will drain your budget rapidly, but offer the chance for life-changing payouts.

• High volatility slots often feature incredibly complex bonus rounds that are very difficult to trigger
• Low volatility games are the absolute best choice if you are trying to clear a casino bonus wagering requirement
• Megaways slots are notoriously high variance, offering thousands of ways to win but long periods of 'dead spins'

How to Identify a Slot's Volatility

If the game provider does not explicitly state the volatility, you can figure it out by studying the game's paytable.

If the top prize is only 500x your bet, the game is almost certainly a low-to-medium volatility machine.

Matching the game's mathematical profile to your personal bankroll is the secret to a successful casino session.
