Payouts in virtual slots are governed by the Random Number Generator (RNG), which ensures that every single spin is independent of the last. A common misconception is that a machine is 'due' for a win; however, our guides explain why this is a myth. We focus on the theoretical return, which is calculated over millions of spins.
