Question

How does a vgt slot machine decide which spin will be the winner?

Answer 1

Typically, slot machines use a pseudo random number generator to determine which symbols appear on which paylines. The primary "seed" for the random number generator is usually the low-order digits from a real-time clock that measures time in nanoseconds. Other variables used include the number of spins since the machine was last reset and the percent payout set by the casino.

I cannot verify that VGT uses this technique. Since it is the most common and is accepted as legal by most gambling regulations, I would bet it is the technique VGT uses.
