One of the main reasons people play online slots is because they hope to win some money and make a profit. Whenever you play any kind of casino game, the odds are against you. In other words, you’re more likely to walk away having made a loss than having won. Even so, that doesn’t stop many people around the world from trying their luck at online slot games, hoping to land the next big win. Payouts vary greatly from one slot to the next. If you’re looking to find some of the most profitable slots to play in 2020, keep on reading.

RTP

An important factor to take into account when deciding on slots to play for real money is RTP. This is a figure that indicates roughly how much of a player’s bet will be paid back over a large number of bets. The Reactoonz slot, for example, has an RTP of 94.51%. If you play this slot, you won’t receive exactly 94.51% of your money back every time you spin the reels, of course. Most of the time, you’ll lose and receive 0%. Sometimes you’ll win, and the percentage of your money that you’re paid back could be well over 100%. What’s important to understand about RTP is that it’s a long-term average. If you only have a few goes on Reactoonz, the overall amount of money you receive back probably won’t be close to the game’s RTP of 94.51%. However, if you keep on playing and place lots of bets on the game, the average amount of money you receive back per spin should get closer and closer to 94.51%.

Even though RTP is to do with long-term play, it’s still a good idea to take it into account, even if you don’t intend to play slot machines that much. Generally speaking, the higher the RTP of a slot is, the better. Play slot games with a higher RTP, and you should, in theory, be paid more; though this will only really become noticeable over long-term play. For most games, the RTP is around 96%, so if you’re really keen on making money, you should play the sets with an RTP of above 96%. Some great examples include:

– Ugga Bugga by Playtech (99.05%)

– Mega Joker by NetEnt (99%)

– Ooh Aah Dracula by Barcrest (99%)

– Jackpot 6000 by NetEnt (98.9%)

– 1429 Uncharted Seas by Thunderkick (98.5%)

– Jokerizer by Yggdrasil (98%)

– Blood Suckers by NetEnt (98%)

– Starmania by NextGen Gaming (97.87%)

Bear in mind that even though the slots mentioned above are likely to offer higher long-term payouts, there’s never a guarantee you’ll make a profit.

A term you may well come across is house edge. This is the direct opposite of RTP, since it refers to how much the casino (or house) makes when you play. If a slot’s RTP is 96%, its house edge is 4% – these two figures represent 96% of the money going to you, the player, and the remaining 4% going to the casino.

Volatility

Another factor worth mentioning is volatility. This refers to how often you can expect to win and how big your winnings can be. There are three main types of volatility: low, medium (or standard) and high. If a slot has a low volatility, you should win fairly often, though the payouts you receive will be on the smaller side. For slots with a high volatility, you will win quite rarely, though when you’re lucky enough to win, the payouts should be fairly large. As for medium volatility slots, they’re a sort of middle-range option: they produce fairly regular wins that are of a decent enough size, while producing larger payouts every once in a while.

Low volatility slots are ideal for anyone on a budget. High volatility slots, on the other hand, are best for those with more money to spend, since it can take many spins before you produce a win. The previously mentioned Reactoonz slot has a high volatility, so if you do decide to give this slot a spin, bear in mind that you won’t win that often. If you want to play Reactoonz for mobile, there are plenty of mobile casinos and apps with this slot’s mobile version available.

When playing online slot games, or any casino game for that matter, winning is never a guarantee. Some sets, however, should pay out larger sums of money than others. If you’re serious about trying to make money from online slots, you should stick with those that have a higher-than-average RTP – some of the top ones have been mentioned above. The rest of 2020 and beyond will no doubt see many more high-paying slots get released, so keep your eyes peeled for more high-RTP slots to hit your favourite online casinos.

Having already won at Stamford Bridge this season, Liverpool return to London with different priorities. A sluggish start since their return from the winter break has seen the club struggle to get going in each of their games. With a UEFA Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid on the horizon, Liverpool might take the chance to rest and relax their squad a little. For Chelsea, though, 2020 has been a nightmare. Leathered 3-0 by FC Bayern at home to add to an already poor home record, and the Blues need a lift at home. Can they find one against the European champions?

Chelsea news

Chelsea are facing a bit of an injury build-up to a squad that shouldn’t be thin, but somehow is. Despite ample resources, the (likely) loss of Tammy Abraham, Christian Pulisic, Callum Hudson-Odoi, and N’Golo Kante are all tough hits. However, despite the first three being touch and go, the last one is almost certainly the most painful one.

Liverpool are excellent at ball retention these days, and Chelsea could struggle without N’Kante offering enough dynamism to keep Liverpool hurried.

Liverpool news

Expect some rotation – a fair amount, in fact. The only thing that might limit rotation are injuries. The likely loss of James Milner and Xherdan Shaqiri is a blow to two players who really should be playing in matches like this. The continued absence of Jordan Henderson, who so often thrives against Chelsea, could be a major hit, too.

However, we could see some of the young talent from previous rounds – especially Curtis Jones and Neco Williams – be given a chance. Klopp has given young players a chance at the deep end before and could choose to do so again here.

Verdict

Liverpool to progress. Chelsea could do with progression more, given their poor form. However, their Stamford Bridge form is hard to back in any kind of positive sense. We could see a good game, though; Klopp often plays rotational sides in the cup, which can often bring a fair amount of goals.

A trip down memory lane to Leicester’s memorable Premier League win and some of those who had enough faith to bet (and profit!) on the outcome!

Liverpool come back to England after the back of a 4-1 win in Belgium; their first away win in the Champions League for around two years. Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, ended their recent performative rot with a 5-0 shellacking of a Red Star Belgrade side that looked utterly lost during the match. With Liverpool set to play one of their most historically exciting fixtures after a tough away game, can they get back to winning ways in the league and go back to leading the title charge?

LFC News

Liverpool looked really exciting but somewhat lopsided when they played Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita in midfield in Belgium. However, the Reds have lacked fluency in midfield from time for much of 2019 – this new midfield trio, with Fabinho screening the defence, could change that pretty soon.

The Reds come into this in otherwise imperious form, even if performances are lacking somewhat. Expect the usual front three, with one of Jordan Henderson or Gini Wijnaldum set to come into the midfield ahead of Oxlade-Chamberlain or Keita.

Tottenham News

Having finally found their feet once again, Spurs have started to see more players coming back from injury. Both Juan Foyth and Giovani Lo Celso are both fit once again, and both could take part in this game at Anfield. However, the loss of Hugo Lloris means that Spurs will need their number two to be in fine form for this one.

Expect Spurs to go with Tanguy Ndombele and Moussa Sissoko in midfield alongside Harry Winks. They’ll want to go for power and precision to try and kill off the Liverpool press.

Verdict

Liverpool win. The first chance for Spurs to get revenge for the 2019 UEFA Champions League final should end in defeat. They are improving, but a poor record at Anfield and the imperious form held by Liverpool at home means that we cannot see beyond a Liverpool win.
