Many slot machines have lines. These are often called pay lines, as they can bring you prizes if you manage to get a winning combination on one or more lines in a spin. A slot can feature just one line across the middle of three reels, or many more lines – possibly up to about 100 of them.
Slots will require five or more reels to accommodate 20 or more pay lines, with three or four icons appearing on each reel. The larger the screen, the more chance there is of seeing more potential for winning on more paylines. The pay table will usually reveal how many lines there are if it is not clear from the game screen. However, the lines are usually indicated at the sides of the two outer reels. Just look for the highest-value number to get the total you need.
It is possible to win on just one pay line in a spin, or on none. You might also get lucky and win on several lines, depending on the positions of the icons that land on the reels. This is part of what makes betting on pay lines so much fun.
