Many players want to know that how many coins they should put in slot machines to play and it totally depends on their personal decision and the amount of money they have. It is recommended playing with maximum coins in progressive machine because if you will not have maximum points, you might miss to win the jackpot. This is only recommended for progressive machines but what about other slot machines. The number of coins depends on the type of machine you are going to play with. Firstly you need to decide you want to play with which type of machine. You can either play video slot or reel slot machine. Video slot machines are very exciting to play and they are very entertaining. Slot makers have added more pay lines in video slot machines and now the players can bet more coins per line. Video slot machines take some time to spin where as the reel slot machines take three coins and spin very quickly. When the video reels spin; players cannot put more coins into the machine. As the slot makers are increasing the number of lines and now, most of the modern video slot machines have minimum nine lines and you can play with 1-10 coins per line. If you play with 5 coins per line, it means you can bet 45 coins. For a nickel machine, you can bet up to $2.25. Playing video slot machines cost a lot than playing reel machines.

Always look for the return on single spin when you decide to play video or reel slots. In case of reel machine, when you hit, you get the money back for your spin but in case of video slots, you can win one line and you lose the other eight lines. Remember one thing that you can win big jackpots if you play with maximum coins. In video slots, you can play 45-90 cents where as in reel slots; you can play with 3-4 coins. You can choose reel slots to play one coin just for the sake of entertainment and if you are really looking for big jackpots, you can play video slots. The decision depends on you either you want to play video slot machines or reel slot machines. In reel machines you can bet few points and get entertained where as in video slot machines, you can bet maximum coins but there might be possibility that you win only one line and loose the other eight lines which would be costing you a lot more than reel slot machines. It is better for you to play single line on the quarter machine and you can play full coin on the nickel machine. For nickel machine, the maximum amount for bet is $2.25 and the amount for quarter machine is $11.25 per spin. If you want to play one coin on each of the nine lines, then the amount for nickel machine is 45 cents and for the quarter is $2.25.
