Now you finally know why your granny used to keep her coins in the freezer!
In fact some people believe cold coins are the best to play with , and some people say hot coins are better.
Unfortunately neither of these beliefs are true .The machine is not affected by temperature.
It doesn't matter if you play hot, cold, old or new coins.
The coin slot is a mechanical device and has no feeling

Myth #3
Someone just sat down where I left and hit a big jackpot. If I would have just stayed a bit longer, it would have been mine.
For this to be true, you would have had to push the spin button or pull the handle at exactly the same split micro second that the other player did. Any change in timing yields a different result

Myth #4
I've always heard slot machines pay more often if I only bet one coin at a time.

The mechanism that runs the slot reels, whether they are real or videos, has no idea how many coins you put into the machine. It will produce the same spin whether you play one or max coins..
