What This Estimate Means

With a $1.00 bet, 500 spins, and a 96.00% RTP slot, you are wagering $500.00 in total. The slot has a 4.00% house edge, so your expected loss is $20.00.

That does not mean you will lose exactly this amount. It means that over a very large number of spins, the average result moves toward the expected loss. In one short session, you can win, lose less, or lose much more.

Volatility Warning

RTP tells you the long-term average return. Volatility tells you how wild the short-term ride can be. A high-RTP slot can still destroy a small bankroll quickly if it is highly volatile. A low-volatility slot may feel smoother, but the house edge still works against you over time.

You selected medium volatility. This does not change the expected loss calculation, but it affects how uneven the session can feel.
