Playing Slots Tournaments Online

There are many different types of online slots tournaments, and no hard and fast rules as to how they all work. But there are a few universal rules to bear in mind.

Generally, there is a set price to ‘buy into’ the tournament, and this fee provides you with a set number of credits. These credits are then exchanged for games on particular slot machines. And the aim, of course, is to get the largest winnings possible.

In most tournaments, you will be playing with only ‘tournament or play money’, which means in effect that all you stand to lose is your entry fee. Whether you are a high roller or not, you will have the same odds as every other player and have the potential to win a lot of cash.

Some of the other online slots tournaments ask that you play with ‘real money’, and stakes are always dependent on the individual slots tournament.

Common Types of Online Slots Tournaments

Different slots tournaments work in different ways, but there are four common types:

1 – An entry fee of between $5 and $35 entitles you to play money chips for use in the tournament.

2 – There is a time limit on your playing period.

3 – The aim of the game is to have more play money than the others in the tournament and you are able to leave the game at any point.

4 – When the game ends, those in the top price bracket are the winners; and prize money is made up of the collected entry fees.

Maximize your Chances of Winning

Generally speaking, the rules for slots tournaments are universal; but different tournaments set different criteria for winning. In some cases, the winner will be the player with the highest total at the end of the game; in others, the winner will be the player who achieves the highest score in a bonus round.

So, in order to maximize your chances of winning, always read the rules before beginning a game!

Where you are given a set time limit for your play, it is often a good idea to keep your finger on the spin button. This ensures that you get in the maximum number of spins during the time period, and the wheel should only stop to allow for your wins.

Slots Tournaments Online

Playing online slots tournaments is a great way to potentially win serious cash for relatively little outlay, as playing online tends to be much cheaper than playing ‘for real’.

One particularly good value example is The Sands. Here, the entry fee is only $25 and this entitles you to play for up to an hour.

It is extremely common for online slots tournaments to allow great value for money and plentiful playing time. The very best of online slots tournaments, however, are for most people the Freerolls. These games ask no entry fee at all – but give the potential to win real cash!
