See the exact chance of every slot for 8 to 16 rows, type in your game's multipliers to find its RTP, and drop balls to watch the odds play out.
Swipe sideways to see every slot.
Example payout table (our model) — every Plinko game sets its own. Type your game's multipliers into the slots to check its RTP.
At every peg the ball goes left or right with equal chance, so the edges are rare and the middle is where most balls land.
Plinko slot odds by rows
Chance of the edge, the next slot in, and the centre. The same on both sides.
| Rows | Slots | Each edge slot | Next to the edge | Centre |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | 9 | 0.391% | 3.13% | 27.34% |
| 10 | 11 | 0.098% | 0.977% | 24.61% |
| 12 | 13 | 0.024% | 0.293% | 22.56% |
| 14 | 15 | 1 in 16,384 | 0.085% | 20.95% |
| 16 | 17 | 1 in 65,536 | 0.024% | 19.64% |
Each peg is a coin flip, so a slot's chance is the number of paths to it, C(rows, k), divided by all 2rows paths.
Plinko strategy: risk, rows and the RTP
What it can do
Choose how the results feel: low risk and fewer rows give steadier returns; high risk and 16 rows give long losing runs with rare big hits. Check the RTP of your game's table with the calculator.
What it can't do
Change where the ball lands or the table's RTP. Every drop is independent, and a streak of centre slots doesn't make an edge “due”.
Questions
What are the odds in Plinko?
At each peg the ball goes left or right with equal chance, so the chance of a slot follows the binomial distribution: C(rows, k) ÷ 2^rows. On 16 rows the centre slot catches 19.64% of balls and each edge slot 1 in 65,536.
Is there a Plinko strategy that works?
No: the payout table sets the RTP, and nothing you do changes where the ball lands. Risk levels and rows only change the shape of the results — more rows and higher risk mean rarer, bigger multipliers and more small losses.
What is the RTP of Plinko?
It depends on the game’s payout table: the RTP is the sum of each slot’s chance times its multiplier. Type your game’s multipliers into the calculator to see its RTP; the example tables here return about 99%.
How often do you hit the edge in Plinko?
Rarely. On 8 rows each edge slot is 0.391%; on 12 rows 0.024%; on 16 rows 1 in 65,536 of balls.
Does the number of rows change the odds?
It changes how spread out the results are. With more rows, the edge slots get rarer and pay more, while most balls still land in the middle, where multipliers are usually below 1×.
