Is the payout any different?

[OHBoy]

I normally play $1.25 on a penny machine (25 lines x5). I also play a nickel machine at $1.25 . . . But that's 25 lines x 1).

Which pays more/less?

Ps: Being that i like betting $1.25, when i go on a 2-cent machine, i do not get the option of choosing $1.25. It gives me a choice of 25 lines (x1; x2=$1.00; x3 or x4 which equals either $1.50 or $2.00. The payout will never match the penny machine.

Nickel machines are almost always set to have a higher payback. It would definitely be in your advantage to play the nickel machine over the penny machine.

The higher the denomination the higher the payback percentage is

Hi Deb..as a 'rule of thumb', but doesn't HAVE to be, as in, there is no law.

Right I agree and I certainly wouldn't trust the NA casinos with lax enforcement to be fair and honest.
