Is There A Technique To Beating Sot Machines?

I love the slots including video slots as well. I get lucky every now and then, I have heard there is a technique to winning on them. Does anyone SERIOUSLY know of this technique? And if so, do you mind sharing it? Thank you.

The slots are all random. There is no method of winning, however there is a percentage that the slots will pay back. Usually 85% of every dollar. Generally, you won't see too much of it because lets say for example that you start with $20.00 and the machine eats everything except for the last $1.25 and gives you 85% of the $20...well now you are behind...will you stop...so the machine has paid the 85%, and takes the rest until you are down to $1.25 and again pays 85%, but only on the $17 that it has given back to you so now you are down about $7 on your original $20...will you stop...probably not...and so it goes...until you have 85% of nothing. There might come a time as you stated where you get lucky and this is where it is extreme luck and nothing else. To sit down at a machine and strike a lucky $1000 jackpot after a few spins. It happens all the time and to be the lucky one is a great feeling. If you fall into the trap that there is a system, then you will lose everything. The government and the casinos will be the first to tell you this if you ask them, but hey who wants to ask about losing? Anyways good luck and may you strike it well.
