What speed does to your money
Cost per hour is stake × rounds per hour × house edge. At $1 a spin on a 96% slot, 300 spins an hour costs about $12 on average; turbo mode at 600 spins costs about $24. A $5 bet on speed roulette at 140 rounds an hour costs about $19, against roughly $9 at a standard wheel with 65 rounds.
Bonuses and fast games
Fast slots can clear wagering quickly because they usually count in full. Speed table games often count 10% or less. Many casinos also ban turbo or autoplay features while a bonus is active, so check the bonus terms first.
