What a floor walk actually looks at

Fifteen checks across four sections, on one page you can hold in one hand while you walk. The sections are above; the checks themselves arrive in your inbox.

Before you sit

Start with the exact slot machine title and denomination. Check the meter, counter or collected symbols named in that machine's guide. Compare what is showing now with the qualifying condition for that game: a large jackpot by itself is not a reason to play. A reset or cleared feature may remove the advantage, so check again before your first spin. Make sure the required bet and bankroll fit your budget. A machine going a long time without a bonus does not, by itself, mean that a bonus is due.

The must-hit-by filter

A must-hit-by jackpot has a trigger limit set by the game's rules. That feature can be guaranteed to trigger by its stated limit without guaranteeing that your session will make money. Find the limit and current meter, then check the required bet, qualifying condition and bankroll in the machine's guide. The calculators help you assess the play using the game's details. The exact play threshold stays in the guide for that title.

Accumulator games

Some games keep collected symbols, filled positions or other progress between plays. What a previous player left behind can matter, but a nearly full display is not automatically a good play. Identify the feature, check how it carries over or resets, and use that title's qualifying condition. Check the bet and bankroll needed before you commit. Do not treat the time since the last bonus as a shortcut to the answer.

The walk-away rules

Know the guide's exit rule before you start. After a jackpot or bonus, check whether the qualifying condition still holds; a reset may remove the reason you sat down. If the condition is gone, do not chase it back. Set your spending limit before playing and keep it, even when you think a feature is close.

The checklist helps you know what to check. The 200+ slot machine guides give you the exact condition, play threshold and exit rule for each title. Take a picture with your phone and the AI Scanner gives you PLAY / DON'T PLAY, then tells you what condition to verify before playing. Use the calculators to check the math and the casino map to plan where to look.
