Can you alter the outcome of a Spin?

Della Yong  asks,
"​Stopping the Reels - Which is better, allowing the reels to spin freely or use the start/stop option? Does it matter?"
 
We all like to think we have a secret to winning. We KNOW how to win, and we CAN control the outcome. The reality is that we can NOT outsmart a computer. Repeat after me...
 
The SECOND you hit the Spin button (or pull the handle), the outcome has already been decided.
 
“Oh no Brian, whenever I see two bonus symbols I always stop the reels and 9 times out of 10 it works!”. I do love your optimism, however just like you cannot stop a speeding train like Superman, you cannot stop the reels to affect its outcome. It just can’t be done. Ever. Ever.
 
That said, I still give myself credit for stopping the reels and getting the bonus even though I had zero impact on the outcome. I did it! :p
 
So in answer to your question: which is better – stopping the reels or letting them spin freely? It doesn’t matter. Since slot machines run on random number generators (RNG’s), the only thing stopping the reels does is change the timing of your next spin which evidently will be hit at a different micro-second. Same goes for a bonus if you stop the reels, it alters the next spin (just not the one already in motion).
 
But to all the Super heroes out there, keep on keeping on! And be sure to tag me in your upcoming Instagram photos and stories using @BCSlots and be on the lookout for exclusive giveaways on there like we did last month!
