Slots and payout rates

David Wenzel writes the articles on this site that deal with how a game works: what is adjustable on a slot, where the payout rate that applies is written, and which table rules move the house edge. He does not work for the operator and has no access to its internal data.

About David

David writes the part of this site that explains mechanics: how a slot decides a round, what a player actually sets, and which of the popular levers change nothing at all.

His figures come from two places only — the operator’s own public pages and the info panel of the game in question. Where a number appears in an article, the date it was checked appears with it.

He collects no session data from players and claims no measurement of a game’s payout over time. A rate is a property of the game as the provider configured it, and one evening at a machine says nothing about it in either direction.

What he does check is whether the same game runs at a different rate at different operators, which happens more often than players expect, and whether a figure quoted on a site matches the one the game itself shows.

He writes for readers who want the arithmetic rather than a list of best games. Where a claim cannot be verified from a public source, the article says so instead of rounding it into a fact.

Articles are revisited when the operator changes its pages. If an offer, a limit or a rule has moved, the text is corrected and the earlier wording named rather than quietly replaced.

How these articles are made

  • Sources: the operator’s public pages and each game’s own info panel, quoted with the date of the check.
  • No access to the operator’s internal data and no session data of our own.
  • Figures that cannot be verified from a public source are left out rather than estimated.
“A payout rate describes thousands of hours, not your evening. Both are worth knowing before you set a stake.” — David Wenzel

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is David Wenzel?
An author on this site, which reviews the Cooked operator from the outside. He writes the articles on slot mechanics, payout rates and live tables.

Does he work for the operator?
No. This site is not run by the operator, and David has no access to its internal data or to player statistics.

Where do the figures in his articles come from?
From the operator’s public pages and from the info panel of the game being discussed, each quoted with the date on which it was checked.

Does he know which slots pay out best?
No, and nobody does from the outside. The rate that applies is shown in the game itself, and no list of best games on any site overrides it.

Are his articles advice on how to win?
No. They explain how the games and the table rules work. Nothing in them changes the mathematics of a game.
