Do any of us actually know how slots work

Genuinely tried to explain slot mechanics to someone yesterday. Started confident, mentioned RNG, said something about volatility, then just kind of stopped. The person looked at me like I was explaining something and I was not explaining anything. Been playing for years and I could not tell you what actually happens when you press spin
 
I have had this exact conversation. Got as far as "the reels are basically just for show" and then realized I had no idea what came after that.
 
the RNG explanation is the move because it sounds correct and nobody can really argue with it. beyond that we're all just guessing =))
 
Honestly I think most people who work at casinos couldn't explain it properly either. It's just a thing that happens and we all agree to accept it lmao
 
The volatility explanation is where I always lose people. High volatility means bigger wins less often low volatility means smaller wins more often and then they ask which one is better and I just say depends and walk away. That's the move!
