Should I change the slot after skidding or continue

1) Base: Skid doesn't "warm up" slot

RNG is independent, RTP is fixed by the config. After a skid, the odds don't change.
Only your context changes: bank, emotions, time, bonus/tournament conditions. The solution is about risk management, not "series."

2) What is considered a "drift" (working thresholds)

Consider that the "skid" trigger is triggered if at least one is executed:
  • winning ≥ × 150- × 300 of the bet;
  • session profit ≥ + 40-60% of the bank session;
  • one win overlaps ≥ 10-15 average bets (for low) or ≥ 25-40 (for high-vol).

3) Mandatory actions immediately after skidding

1. Profit Lock (PL): Withdraw/defer 50-80% of current offside earnings.
2. Trailing-stop by profit: fix the "moving" stop at 50-70% of the * picovogoplus session.
3. Cap rates: maximum 1% bank/spin per high-vol, 1.5-2% on flat slots; for Bonus Buy - 0.5-1% of the bank/purchase.
4. Reset to base rate. No "doubling out of the bank body."
5. Timer: short window 10-30 min; by operation - stop without exception.

4) Decision tree: Leave, stay or change slot

A) QUIT NOW - Basic Pick

Choose "exit" under any of the conditions:
  • reached SW (target plus) or triggered Trailing;
  • the session was for the sake of a "snapshot of luck "/stream - the goal was achieved;
  • non-sticky cache phase gave a plus → immediately output, let the bonus burn out;
  • fatigue/euphoria is felt: emo scale ≥ 6/10.

Pros: You kept the skid EV without giving away its variance and pace.

B) STAY IN THE SAME SLOT - only a short "squeeze"

Valid if:
  • do not reach SW, and the slot is needed by goal (mission/tournament/WR in this slot);
  • skid was "rare" (high-wol), but you want 1 short attempt to "finish off" the window.

How to play on:
  • Only one short cycle: 100-200 spins or 1-2 back on the cape after skidding (for hi-vol), then full resets.
  • Press from profit - maximum 1 step, strictly in the mouth.
  • Any rollback to Trailing → stop/pause.

C) CHANGE SLOT - when it's rational

WR/grind: after skidding, go to an even slot (HF↑, BF↓, RTP 96% +) to "live" to turnover.
Non-sticky: cash-out? If you play further, change to an "even "/other provider so as not to develop "dogon. "
Multiplier tournaments: record caught - change to another title/pause; the second peak is usually "knocked out" more expensive.
After Must Drop/jackpot: the overlay has disappeared - leaving this line is rational.
Unwanted meters/modes: if the current slot "tightens" the press/Buy, switching saves the bank.

5) Mathematical support for solution

Expected flow rate/hour:
  • $$
  • \ text {Bet }imesext {spin/h }imes (1-RTP)
  • $$

After skidding, do not increase the pace - the hour instantly rises in price.
How many attempts can you "spend" without giving away a profit:
  • $$
  • N_{\max} \approx \frac{P - ext{Trailing}}{ext{Bet}_{ext{текущ}}}
  • $$

where $ P $ is the current profit. If $ N _ {\max} $ small (≤50 -100 spins) - do not "squeeze," exit.
The press does not improve EV:
  • $$
  • EV = - (1-RTP )imes\sumext {bets}
  • $$

Any progression only changes volatility, not expectation.

6) Special cases on mechanics

Hi-vol (Megaways/progress-multi/sticky Wild):
  • After ×, 150- × 300: PL 60-80%, Trailing 50-60%, 1 spin on the mouth (≤1% of the can) maximum, then reset/output.
  • Repeating a strong bonus immediately after skidding is rare; a long "dogon" eats up a plus.

Hold & Win (no aggressive upgrades):
  • Drifts are lower in ×, but more often serial mini-features. It is logical to shift to flat mode or change the slot for WR.

Bonus Buy:
  • Any "ladders" with a purchase price are high risk. After a major purchase: PL, magazine median, a series of 5-10 purchases on Unit-Risk 0.5-1%. If the series is a plus - stop.

7) T & Cs and seizure risks after skid

Max bet under the bonus - not to exceed "on emotions." One mistake = reason to cancel the win.
Forbidden modes (Ante/Buy) at WR - do not turn on.
Withdrawal Lock (if any) - enable immediately after PL.

8) Psychology: the traps of "post-routine" thinking

"Slot hot" - error. Independence of spins.
Euphoria → rising rates are the most common way to give a profit.
FOMO by tournament/leaderboard - the race for the "second record" is almost always more expensive than the first.

9) Practical scenarios (short)

A) Megaways, skid × 280

Bank 300; rate 0.8% (= 2.4). Plus + 240.
PL 70% (=+168), Trailing 60% (=+144). Allow 1 spin on the 1% mouthguard (= 3). Further stop/reset.

B) Hold & Win, mini-feature series, plus + 45%

Transition to an even slot for WR: rate 1-1.2% of the bank, pace 300-400/h. The goal is to close the turnover, not to "burn" a plus.

C) Non-sticky: cache phase yielded + 50%

Instant output (bonus/FS burn out - normal). If you want "more" - only a new session/other game, with a base rate and new limits.

D) Multiplier tournament: the record is already there

Fixing the result, changing the slot/pause. Continue on the same title - an extra risk without EV growth.

10) Checklist "after skidding"

PL...% done? Trailing...% set?
Rate resets to the base; cap...% of the bank is met?
Play further max 10-30 min/100-200 spin?
T & Cs: max bet/Buy/Ante bans under bonus enforced?
Target on further: stop/micro-skin/slot change under WR - recorded?
Emo scale ≤ 5/10? If above - exit.

Conclusion

After skidding, the slot math doesn't change. Only your risks change. The basic solution is to lock in profits and exit. If you continue, then a short, disciplined microjog: PL, Trailing, cap bets, one press "out of profit" maximum, timer. For WR and flat grind - changing the slot to low/mid. Any "series" and "warm-up" are illusions; the winner is the one who keeps the skid, and not the one who tries to "squeeze out" without a plan.
