A Terrific Trio: What Are 3 Reel Slots?


Three reel slots are some of the most popular online casino games. The trio of "reels", or wheels, are each covered in a variety of symbols that are shown one at a time through windows, in a random attempt to get a certain winning combination in a spin. Traditional pictures have included bells, cherries, and card suits, but modern machines have exotic pictures that range from words to images from popular movies and television shows. While winning is, of course, left to chance, some 3 reel slots give a little more control over an outcome than others, allowing the user to stop the reels individually, as opposed to all 3 stopping at a specified time.
