Dear Anyone.
I love watching Vegas fruit machine players - but I don't really understand 'denom'. If this example doesn't make sense it's cos I've no idea what I'm talking about, but here goes....
You select - say - $1 on the machine, so that's $1 denom, am I right? Then they press the button and it's - say - $25 a spin. Why's it not $1 a spin as they've just chosen $1? That's the first question. Here's the doozy.
They then choose a different amount from the list - say $5 for argument's sake, if the question doesn't work with that amount, forgive me and try to understand the gist of it - and it's STILL $25 a spin. So what's changing the amount achieved if it's still the same price per spin? Been trying to work those two things out from the first time I saw a Vegas bandit being played.
I know we've got FOBTs. But if you choose an amount on them - say 50p - that's how much a go it is. Every time you press the button, that's 50p (or £2 or whatever you've chosen.) So when I first watched a Vegas bandit I assumed it'd be the same thing - choose an amount, that's how much a press it is. But they don't seem to work that way - the amount per press always differs totally from the amount they choose. Never worked it out, could you experts stop sniggering long enough to gently help me understand?
Yours hopefully - I'll prob. leave the forum in peace after I've understood this one, this question's the reason I joined -
Chris.
