Table Limits and Payouts: The minimum machine wager is one $0.50

The Spring Break symbol is a wild, multiplier symbol.
This means that it substitutes for any other symbol
to complete winning combinations, except the Beach
Party symbol. And doubles the payout of any combination
it completes.
Multiple Spring Break symbols on an enabled payline
create winning combinations as shown in the Payout
Table.
Multiple Spring Break symbol only multiplies payouts
if it acts as a wild symbol.
1. Two Spring Break symbols and a single Burrito
symbol on an enabled payline complete a three Burrito
symbols combination, and pay out 10 coins. However,
two Spring Break symbols are displayed, so the payout
is 10 x 2 = 20 coins. Since two Spring Break symbols
pay out 10 coins, you are paid out for the three Burrito
symbols combination, as it is the higher value payout.
2. Three Spring Break symbols and two Road Trip symbols
on an enabled payline complete a five Road Trip symbols
combination, and pay out 800 coins. However, three
Spring Break symbols are displayed, so the payout
is 800 x 2 = 1,600 coins. Since three Spring Break
symbols pay out 200 coins, you are paid out for the
five Road Trip symbols combination, as it is the higher
value payout.
3. Four Spring Break symbols and a single Popsicle
symbol on an enabled payline complete a five Popsicle
symbols combination, and pay out 100 coins. Since,
four Spring Break symbols payout 2,000 coins, you
are paid out for the four Spring Break symbols combination,
as it is the higher value payout.
4. Five Spring Break symbols on an enabled payline
complete a winning combination, as per the payout
schedule, and pay out 10,000 coins.
The Beach Party symbol is a scatter symbol. This
means that it does not need to appear in a line on
an enabled payline to win. It can be scattered anywhere
on the five reels, provided two or more Beach Party
symbols appear.
You are paid out for winning combinations on enabled
paylines only, except for scatter wins. The Beach
Party symbol can appear in any position, on any of
the reels.
The Spring Break symbol does not complete a scatter
symbol combination.
Winnings are calculated by multiplying the number
of Beach Party symbols by the total number of credits
bet.
If you have a scatter win and a normal win, you
are paid out for both wins, as the scatter symbol
does not need to appear on an enabled payline to win.
Example:
1. One Beach Party symbol and one Spring Break symbol
scattered anywhere on the five reels, does not complete
a winning combination, as the Spring Break symbol
does not substitute for the scatter symbol. A minimum
of two Beach Party symbols completes a winning scatter
combination.
2. If you have selected a 0.50 coin and bet 5 coins
on each of the 9 paylines, your total bet amount is
0.50 x 5 coins = 2.50 credits per payline x 9 paylines
= 22.50 total credits bet.
Three Beach Party symbols scattered anywhere on the
five reels, completes a scatter winning combination
as shown in the Payout Schedule. Three Beach Party
symbols pay out the total amount of credits bet, multiplied
by 5. Therefore, your total payout is 22.50 total
credits bet x 5 = 112.50 credits won.
3. If you have selected a 0.50 coin and bet 5 coins
on each of the 9 paylines, your total bet amount is
0.50 x 5 coins = 2.50 credits per payline x 9 paylines
= 22.50 total credits bet.
Three Beach Party symbols scattered anywhere on the
five reels, and three Barbecue symbols on an enabled
payline, complete two winning combinations as shown
in the Payout Schedule. Three Beach Party symbols
complete a scatter winning combination and pays out
the total number of credits bet multiplied by 5. So,
you are paid 22.50 total credits bet x 5 = 112.50
credits.
Three Barbecue symbols complete a 3 Barbecue symbols
winning combination and pays out 10 coins. As you
bet 2.50 credits per payline, you are paid 10 coins
x 2.50 credits per payline = 25 credits.
Therefore, the total payout is 112.50 + 25 = 137.50
credits.
It is easy to see why casinos like slot machines so much. The slot machines take up very little floor space, break time is only when they
do breakdown and that is rare for a machine. The breakdowns are handled quickly by a slots techician, usually just a simple computer board change is involved and the faulty machine is back in business. There is no way that casino management could have ever predicted the popularity of the slot machine today. All management has done is provide the gamblers with what they want, and believe it or not, slot machines are now one of the most popular of all casino games.
In this day and age, it would not be fair to refer to slot machines as "one armed bandits". We all know, most machines do have that big old handle that earned it it's name but, if all you want to do is push buttons, you don't need that handle at all. Sit down, get comfortable, it is up to you, if you want to feed the machine at the beginning of each spin of the wheels or you can simply insert the bill of your choice and select "bet max".
The interesting question is, we know casino management could not have made these machines as popular as they are. What is it about slot machines that grab and hold the gamblers attention for such a long period of time? This time period I am referring to started in the mid 1900's and continues to grow to this day.
Do many people consider gambling to be entertainment? Entertainment, for most of us, is something that does not require alot of "brain work". After a long day, we feel the brain deserves a rest and our forms of entertainment usually include this. The slot machine enters the picture and for many, this must be what they were looking for.
Slots do offer the opportunity for a big payout. This may be one of the factors that has lead to the huge popularity of these machines. Some of the jackpots on the progressive machines exceed 10 million dollars. I do play the lotteries when the pots get big and a slot machine gives me a way of playing for a huge pot just by taking one more spin of the wheels. The size of the progressive is one of the major factors that has assisted the rising use of slot machines by gamblers.
The ringing of the bells may have helped the continued rise in popularity. Maybe it is the graphics on the wheels and could be the lights. There is also the possibility that the names of the machines are what draw the gamblers to sit down and play. I think it is fair to say, that it is not just one factor that has led to what the slot machine is today, it is a combination of all of the above and more.
Sit down, relax and don't gamble with more money than you can afford to lose.
