Slot Tech Responds to YOUR Questions & Comments ❓ Q&A Fridays on Gamble Smart!

[@danielpacheco6120]

One thing I love about Marc, and the main reason I recommend this KZbin channel to everyone, is that he doesn't tell you what you want to hear, he tells you what you NEED to hear. Great information all the time.

[@GambleSmart]

Thank you so much - your comment made my night.

[@JOEYP1970]

Facts!!! And the way he answers questions is straightforward with a equal demeanor to his answers! Very glad I found this Channel, Marc is a true asset to the slot player!

[@Intuitive.Inspiration]

Absolutely and I wish I knew of his channel months ago 😢

[@markDbee]

Yeah< I think this also. I WANT to be educated. I trust Marc, but I always take what he says and research it myself the best that I can and you can easily find posts or other info by industry people/sources that confirm these things. And the logic of Marc's analogies make sense to those that can comprehend them.

[@Tedn222]

This Friday Q & A is a great idea. “Keep On, Keeping On “ Guys !!!

[@Donna-sz8cu]

I really like the question , answer, comment video, would be good to have one weekly on Fridays. Thankyou for another great video. Instead of ghost busters, you are myth busters

[@janetsulich464]

Marc loved today's talk. I vote to do it every Friday. Hv to share with u how my girlfriend and I used to always come home with winnings in the 90s at Atlantic City. We loved to shop. So we wld go from store to store and find something we wanted to buy. Then go on the craps table to win that amount of money to buy the article. This way, we came home with winnings. A new outfit or outfits. But only craps table. Was a win for us!😊

[@wandlbaker]

There is a bunch of different reasons why someone gambles. AND there are many different ways to budget. My budget method is - SET AMOUNT TO PLAY - IF I lose I lose, done, go home - if I win 3X my starting budget DONE, GO HOME, TAKE THE WIN. Yes, I am doing a lot of game selecting with the goal of playing my budget longer thanks to your information and Cowboy Slots. Thanks for educating the peeps.

[@titasmom678]

I just watched this episode and have the mentality that you, Dave, and Brantley have made me realize. Gamble what you can afford to lose, have a low and high stop point, and play as long as you are having fun. My brother went to Vegas so I gave him $200 to play a specific game. I told him play it all, or stop once the money was doubled because it was a higher volatility game (according to all of you). I gave him the denom/bet to play. He called me while he was playing and told me I hit the bonus after playing $75 of my money. He finished the bonus, and I told him to do a backup spin (nothing) and pulled out my money. He ended up tripling my money and brought it home to me. I would have been ok if he had lost my money...thats why it's called gambling.

[@paulaknox2002]

I told my husband about the optics of machines, and he was spectacle until we both set down a machines with pots. I sat at one tht was empty and he sat at one that was full. When we hot up I had opened mine twice and he never got his to open. He believes me or actually you now. Thanks for all your knowledge.

[@Pam_in_Austin]

Love the idea of Q&A Fridays! Always great information. My first change the next time I go to a casino: don’t put in a $100 bill. I’m going to break it into $20s. I have a feeling it will be easier to double $20 than $100. Oh, yeah, I have a lockbox too😀

[@thecrabbycrafter]

That $20 thing has made a big difference in my gambling life Pam.

[@jenkuhar8178]

I do the same with 20’s. Once I changed to this strategy and a gamble box, it was eye opening how often I win. I changed my strategy thanks to this channel. Of course there are times I go home with little to nothing. Thanks Marc and Dave!❤️

[@rolo12010]

Been watching Marc since he was on Cowboy Slots, great info and I've been using my free play to earn winnings for a casino day. I will play very low volatile games. Each time get my bet back or a win I cash out and only use the free play for the session. Yes, it's only for a few minutes but I've gotten some good wins. I will then use my earnings for a day at the casino to earn comps and more free play. As Marc and team always says "you win more than you think!" I've always use to play free play then all my winnings go down to $0. Now I'm actually ahead this year! Thanks for all the advice it is definitely working!

[@GambleSmart]

So great to hear!!

[@hollystockton2313]

No sucker here! Thanks Marc for your advice! I've won enough to seed my future gambling and pay for soooo many things, new appliances, Coding camp for the kids, vacations etc ... I'm a low ball player, who goes in with $200-$400 max. While I've lost money, I walk away most times with my winnings to be put back into the seed money or bank for future use. I don't stay after I've won or lost a certain amount. They want my money and I want theirs, while having great fun!

[@alansexter9752]

Happy Friday, Marc! Thanks so much for this great session - please keep them coming on future Fridays!

[@markbrown4552]

Great Q&A, Mark. For those out there who love to complain about never winning, all I can add is that you're making poor choices in your game selection. How many times has Gamble Smart and Cowboy Slots said, "Stay away from penny machines", because they'll eat through your bankroll? If you're in a casino merely to be entertained, by all means play penny slots, but don't turn around and complain that you lost all your money😢. Pay attention 🤔 to what these guys are saying, and "Gamble Smart!"

[@LyrictheBooBooBandit]

I like Friday comments and questions. I also appreciate that the average gambler playing lower bets can relate to what you show. The $25, $100 betting may be a way to get an audience but isn't realistic. I've learned a lot from your channel, thank you.

[@TerriAnne22]

Love the support you give. After listening to this today, I don't feel so bad about messing up the last time I played. Just have to keep trying to do better and listening to your advice.

[@GambleSmart]

You got this!

[@timrpat282]

Just now started watching. I'll tell you right off the bat I like the idea of answering questions on Fridays.

[@themortal1]

I enjoyed Friday format, good to mix it up. Keep up the great content.

[@vickifeeback168]

Yes! Q&A Friday is awesome! Let's do it!

[@madmattdigs9518]

It’s hard to convince people of things like this. But I believe what you say is true. As far as getting big wins… it’s all just dumb luck. I’ve been very lucky at times. And it sure is fun when it happens.

[@susanpasieka6230]

The "sucker" is NOT the player. The "sucker" is the machine because it "sucks" your money! LOL!!! 😂

[@richbrunjes3823]

Love the Q and A . Heading to Vegas two weeks from today ! Of course I will follow Marc’s advise

[@DesolatorMagic]

There's a widespread rumor that my local native American casino violates some state or federal laws with they way they set their machines but it's cheaper to just pay the fine every X time period. Where can I check on if that's true? I assume it's public information or at least can be requested by a FOIA request.

[@rebeccaleeper4570]

Marc, you have given me so much insight and understanding of how the games I love to play work! Thank you.

[@herbertdaugherty636]

Great video! I went a whole year without winning a jackpot and took several months off. In the last year and five months I’ve won about 30 jackpots and a $5k scratcher. I’m still not ahead but I enjoy gambling and the casino restaurants which are some of the best in San Diego County. I was at a casino and moved over one machine. Someone sat down and hit a jackpot on first bet. I cashed out my ticket and didn’t go back for a few years even though I knew that it was random. I’ve also had this happen in reverse.

[@Ocean_breezes]

When I walk in a casino to play slots, I'm not there expecting to get rich. It's the unexpected win that's fun. You just never know. Attitude is everything. And never stay in a casino longer than 3 hours or more. My rules. Great content Marc. Wish your channel grows.

[@GGGslots]

proof that tribal casinos ARE regulated is my home casino tampa hardrock has their gaming commision office right in the middle of the casino! i never knew that until a few years ago as i was walking to the cashier area, i saw these 2 doors and on the outside of the doors in black letters, it read "Gaming Comission"! so maybe in other casinos the gaming commision could be inside the casino that they are at!

[@GGGslots]

Marc, one example for me about doing somrthing about your winnings or handpays was when i won my biggest handpay of $1800.00 on a slot machine. the first thing i thought of was paying off my 2018 nissan rogue car and i was 2 years into paying it at$300.00 a month. so not only did i pay my car off 4 months early, i had around $5000.00 left of it. just make sure when you win a big handpay, you ask for a check and that forces you to not use any of the winnings!

[@GambleSmart]

That’s simply amazing. Gambling Smart.

[@GGGslots]

@@GambleSmart actually what I meant was I paid of my car 4 YEARS early not 4 months early because I was on a 6 year payment plan with nissan.

[@gasmith7486]

Umm 🤔 a compulsive gambler will deposit the check and gamble it the next day.

[@GGGslots]

@@gasmith7486 which is definitely not me!!!!!!

Friday Q & A is a genius idea to get to everyone's questions...Thanks

[@suelanigan]

Keep up the Friday Q&A session. Great info!

[@kimmer0015]

I’m in for Q&A Friday! ❤️ this idea Marc 👍

[@WulfTrax]

Thanks for this informative video, Marc! I hope you and Dave have a great time in Vegas!

[@neilmckie2768]

Great subject for Fridays - thanks, Marc, all good stuff.

Thanks for this! I loved it! ❤ Gteat session, Marc!!

[@GambleSmart]

Have a good day Gailesch! Appreciate you always being in the comments :)

[@wellemeyer]

What is “dynamic payout” of “adaptive gaming”? Does this not allow a casino with a modern slot network to adjust RTP dynamically based on historic payouts? It’s my understanding that on some slot networks this can be adjusted in some jurisdictions every 15minutes or whenever a player card is removed.

[@f-channel2531]

Thanks for the video. I have a question; you always say slots are heavily regulated and there always has to be multiple people in the process of changing the RTP, but in my local casinos I don't see any of that, I've observed a slot tech setting up a machine and the whole time it was just that one person setting it up, I even saw him selecting the payback percentage (picked a really low one...), and once he closed the door and left the machine was in service. In my case how can I know they don't rig the payback percentages?

[@aces7515]

Great format, very informative. I think it’ll be a great idea for “Fridays “ Sue

[@CynMermaid]

I like the Questions and Comments Friday idea.

[@susanmeihls3314]

Learned a lot from you I walk away after a win 900 and 500 dollars last weekend old school slots 3 dollar and 2 50

[@gasmith7486]

I’m was a bartender at a local bar in Vegas. We had 3 different $1 video poker machines. (This was before multi game). The progressive started at $4,000 and climbed its way up over $10,000 so everyone was playing the progressives for months!! They mostly played the one in the middle that gave the most four of a kinds and gave more play. Whereas the one in the corner sucked and gave very little play. One of those machines that sucks your money and kicks you out the door. Anyway, when it finally hit, it was the tightest machine of the three that hit the royal. The guy playing it was a tourist who didn’t know what machines played better and he just happened to pick that one vs the regular customers stayed off that one because it was so tight. I said all that to say that that the viewer who claims that he watched the machines that get a lot of money dumped into them “because they hit after that” and then he plays them is foolishness. ANY machine can hit at any time, money dumped in or not!!

[@ShawnIsBatman]

Great video.... Comment & Question Friday seems like a great idea!

[@mariafahey4124]

Hi, I am from Australia and we have pokies in the clubs and well as the casinos. Do you think the pokies in the clubs are harder to win on than the casinos?

[@papado72]

Like the videos....keep'm coming. My question is when you hit a jackpot or get a large hand pay, what can you do to keep yourself safe because everyone around you just saw you get a stack of cash? Can you ask for a check? Will the casino/hotel put your money is a safe? Can you ask security to escort you to your room?

[@blagabrutovski3187]

Great information! Question We play $1 x 5 lines Quick Hits or 1, $3 bets machines are these machines low or high volatility games? Blaga, upstate N Y

[@guidoyanovich01]

Great stuff Marc. Yes Q&A Fridays! Thanks as always! Tomato sauce a meat pies best friend! 🌏

[@ClubMikeV]

One thing that casinos should do more often, especially the tribal ones, is to provide a link to their gaming commission or regulator somewhere on their website. All regulated online casinos have the seal or logo of their regulator, usually at the bottom of their homepage, so why don't brick-and-mortar casinos do this? 🤔

[@Rachael_ST]

Hi Marc. Thanks for good content here. In case you need an idea for the next video, I would suggest a topic of psychological effect from watching slot videos on KZbin. During Covid time a lot of people including myself couldn't go to actual casinos and started watching more of slot videos more regularly. Next thing I know when I went back to casinos, I started betting higher than my usual range and were comfortable playing games I had noy played before but seen them through videos. I found myself many times trying to match the experiences that I had from videos to my actual plays. And you know that meant upping the bets and taking unnecessary risks. This is a different kind of addiction I think. It's not about the money anymore. Some people tried to explain it scientifically that we are addicted to Dopamine and we could get high through watching slot videos. 😅

Yeah why did you take jodie off she had a lot of great questions for you and Dave l also think if you bring it back you should do a phone in so people could ask a live question instead of being look over for somthing easier to answer just a thought . Yes I know neither of you want to publicize you number and be harassed by ph calls

She’s been really busy with the end of the school year, she just hasn’t had the time to work on it. She has the summer off and we will kick it into gear again :)

[@CascadeEarthNW]

I think the machines have winning cycles. In the state where I am the gambling laws are different than in NV. We have a lottery system not individual winning machines. If I don’t get anything right away, I move on. I really like your channel. Thanks.

[@gasmith7486]

Love your channel! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@floridajoe3181]

Can you talk about the RTP on the cruise ships? are they much lower then land casino?

[@slowmads]

Not accurate. CLIA requires their member cruise companies adherence to Nevada gaming rules and regs.

[@wenrug9418]

On the note of Keno: Its important to talk about the difference between "Slot machine Keno" and the in person "ball spinning" keno. Slot keno has a payback percentage equal to normal slots where as Live keno is the worst odds game in the world

[@maryannsmith3815]

Love this idea appreciate all the hard work you guys put in 🤠

[@michele5327]

[@manuelab1677]

Great video as always!

[@bonwatcher]

The lack of transparency by tribal gaming is one reason I don't go. Because Nevada casinos have to report earnings as corporations on top of being in compliance with the NGCB makes things different. Do all other states require them to be audited and are their rules as strict?

[@GambleSmart]

It’s all over the place - I do agree with you though, I wish we had more visibility.

[@Intuitive.Inspiration]

I often hit $750 and just play it for bigger winnings. I moved to Oregon a few months ago and randomly booked an airbnb in Lakeside thinking I was nearby Florence. I passed three rivers casino and went to its smaller casino in Coos Bay. Won THREE jackpots! $1200, $13k+ and $13K+ It was a super small casino too, I won’t two of the big ones within a few hours on the SAME machine! It’s definitely chance for sure! Unfortunately the addiction is real and weird shit happens after the high of winning where you return and re spend most of it for the chase. I learned hard lesson! And I’m embarrassed

[@Intuitive.Inspiration]

FYI I had spent under $800 getting all this. It was blind luck and beginners luck where you just pick things randomly.

[@justinlemon8326]

One of our tribal casinos actually posts the RTP on the wall. Just over 91% and the only place I have won a grand jackpot.

[@sioumurphy]

Love Q and A on Fridays

[@1SquareDeal]

In Keno are the numbers truly random or does the machine know the numbers you picked and then decides if you win or not?

[@GambleSmart]

Can't be weighted like that, it's truly random. If the payback % is lowered or increased, you would notice it in the values you are awarded based on number of balls matched.

[@glddraco666]

One thing I do besides having a cash box is to leave my debit card at home.

[@cubBuzz]

Question: In the slots with a "wheel spin" bonus- Are the winnings random or are they pre-determined (like the coin picks in Drums)? P.S.- Love watching your vids! People need to remember this is "GAMBLING"! Slots are 'entertainment' like a video game from the 80s, except you may get prizes!

[@AdalidValdovinos-oh5xc]

I’ve been gambling for 10years I do believe the machine pay randomly not what you feed in. It has time to pay and time to take because I seen people win over and over the same machine hit back to jackpots

[@thecrabbycrafter]

Because I find the psychology of gambling fascinating, I've done a lot of research into everything casino. Including how compulsive gamblers are made. I want to be sure I don't go down any of those roads. I understand the chemical reaction that occurs when we win and how addiction forms for many people. I understand the predatory nature of casinos and how they are out to get me. Yet I enjoy the atmosphere and the people watching. You said it Marc. You have to PAY ATTENTION. People get a good hit or bonus and just keep spinning down to zero. Then they complain they never win. Yeah I'm talking to you Sucker. I bet you're fun at parties. Cash out the wins, redeem the voucher, put the win in your pocket and start over. And have reasonable expectations.

[@5877user]

This last paragraph is exactly what I did. If I won around $80 or more after putting in a $20, then I cash out and either put in another $20 from my bankroll or move on to look for another game to play. After two days, I went home having only lost $200 of my $1600 bankroll. I enjoy slots for the fun and enjoyment knowing I probably could lose a lot. But I, too, don’t want to become an addicted gambler. That’s why two days is the perfect staycation for me and my husband.

[@bobberndt9744]

Nice episode 🙂 Segment suggestion : Factual Fridays or Friday Facts. 💰 Thanks

On a Class 2 bingo machine when you hit the bonus, is that a predetermined win?

Its May. I go about 3 times a week. Ive hot over 40 jackpots since the start of January 1. My max bet is just 5 dollars. Its crazy people say theyve never hit a JP. Dudes probrably playing a 20 line game at 1 cent a line while only having 1 line active. People love lying its amazing. And the guy who said he have the screenshots. Prove it, i net you bet like 50 dollars a hit too. Pft.

[@anthonyjacksonjr4812]

These tips are really helpful. Q&A 👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Schweders]

If you listen to the advice these guys give you will walk away satisfied more often than not. Find the right casino, play the games you enjoy and understand, and have a plan for your bank roll, what you’ll do if you win, and a cap of what you can afford to lose.

[@davidmendes1361]

Hi Marc really enjoy the comments by you and Dave. Is the $1200 jackpot limit ever going to be raised?

[@VivnVegas]

I love your comment and question day idea. Great information for all of us. I know you earn comps for play but why is the players club so secretive about how much comp you have earned? Don't they know the more reason we have to go in the more chance they have to win our money?

[@LesLad88]

Great video! Let’s do it again😊

[@jk40369]

Hey Marc you know I love your videos and advice you guys give along with cowboy too. But this episode him home and it is kinda funny because a year ago I believed all that negative stuff everyone was saying too. Then one day was searching for double black tie slot machine videos to watch as my favorite slot or use to be in dollar version which I have asked but never heard back if it's a low, med or high volatility slot machine?? Anyway like I said I believed all that stuff too until I came across a video of you and cowboy talking about slots and answering questions which of course led me to watch more of your calls videos and even asked few questions about low volatility slots to play you or cowboy at the time led me to double diamond and triple stars. I have played them both several times now lost several times but also won several times too and got my first ever handpay for $1700 on triple stars. Came home that weekend wrote you guys told you all about it you wrote back congrulated me and week later went back put it all back into the slot wrote you guys on that as I felt like huge idiot for doing so. Which you guys then steered me to budget videos, manageing money set limits and taking breaks videos so of course I was like a sponge and still am even now watched hours and hours or hundreds of hours videos learning all I could on what to do how to do and slots ect.. So I wouldn't make the same mistake twice. Now granted I am not perfect still making mistakes or over spending sometimes but maybe now couple hundred was my worst now that have done past my budget. But more and more I am walking out with a hundred or two profit walking away with instead of putting it back into machine or spending it and going to atm. Because you, Dave and Cowboy I am way way better and getting better and smarter every day. I learning to quit or walk away or setting a high cutoff and low cutoff plus learned to leave my bank card at home or in my truck because I know if I walk to my truck I won't go back in. But it's because you guys I am a better gambler funny on poker table complete opposite can walk away any time up or down learned that long time ago and still do that. But I had to learn and drill it in my head it's not the next spin or two or next hundred dollars. And your video of printing tickets anyone who has doubts one time whatever they plan to gamble 100 dollars or 500 dollars take it all in 10s or 20s one time and like you said if win more than denim your betting print ticket I guarantee you will see one you win more than you think and two you will walk away more money 9 out of 10 times than you brought doing so. If people instead of arguing with you guys or fighting or trying so hard to prove you three wrong would just take the time start over watch the videos start from the basics say low budget 100 dollars find the low volatility slot put 10 or 20 dollars in at a time print the tickets they will see it works then they also watch how to double money or stopping point and try another slot to build bank roll and if like me people buy the gambler box put the money in it so you won't spend it as it helps but we all have to listen and reprogram our brains of what we heard, thought, think or whatever and learn the right way all over again and stop chasing thinking that next spin is the big one! Yeah it may be lord knows I hate it when I get off the slot go to one beside it someone comes and bam runs it up to 3,4,500 and didn't give me crap or took my money. But sad thing is wasn't my time or right timing of hitting the spin button or whatever just wasn't my day but that's OK because had I kept playing it then I would of lost more because it just wasn't my time and the next spin theory is going to make you crazy or mad or over spend or many many other terrible things. So just keep that in mind if you don't want to stop or get off machine as we all know it can go from bad to worse and even really worse. Yet next time you come it all pays off weather you take a break for 30 minutes or go to another machine or come back another day if people first reprogram themselves first which believe me I am still doing it lol but I am miles ahead than I was months ago and just remember it's there to take your money either win it or give it so much and not let it have it all and trust me it really does get easier and easier every time you walk away with either winnings or your budget you set to loose no more I am proof of that! Because I use to believe they were rigged or controlled by players card or could flip a switch to make it pay or not in control center ect ect all the theories I believed seriously at one time or another. Anyway for all the doubting viewers please just watch some videos try the things gamble smart gamble safe or cowboy Slots tell you to try. I mean honestly at this point what do you have to loose as your own system isn't working otherwise you would be rich now and not care what these guys say anyways so just try it. Anyway sorry didn't mean to preach or get on my soap box by no means. I just want to thank you guys because you do make a difference your videos do help but people have to want help, be willing to listen and willing to change what they do or think they know. Keep up the great work all three of you guys again thank you. Jay from Tennessee 😎

[@pilotgreenhorn8272]

What's the difference between class 2 and class 3 slot machines

[@AmazingSlotWins]

Class 2 are bingo card slots and class 3 bingo are rng slots

[@carlcolvin8320]

Here is a question for you. Reno Nevada Atlantis casino. High limit area. $ 100 slot progressive, it has been up to $ 425,00.00 for over 7 years and the next one is up to $ 435,000.00 for the same years . That is some random generated numbers.

[@gasmith7486]

It doesn’t get the volume of play like lower denominations.

[@NJslotguy]

My question is for Marc 👋🏽, Is it true that 5 Times Pay has the best payout in the casinos?

[@GambleSmart]

I'm not going to answer this without my lawyer present.

[@tkell31]

Have to laugh because it's so true about high volatility games. I hit a high volatility game on my second spin Monday in Vegas. Was playing $4.40 a spin and the jackpot paid....$22. Now imagine that was your 50th spin or 100th spin. And it happens all the time. In order to have the 200, 300, 400x wins people like to get you need even more "dead" spins or "bad" bonuses (over the life of the machine obviously you could theoretically hit 5 in a row). I would love to see the stats on the average "jackpot" or "bonus" round for each bet amount. I think people would be surprised at how low they are relative to the amount risked. Bottom line slots are a losing proposition, like most forms of gambling, that should only be played for entertainment.

[@GoGoGo23368]

True, I always win but I’m giving it back😌. I need to do kore self control.

[@5877user]

If a person is banned from a casino, it it forever and do other casinos get that information?

[@JBlinky67]

I don't really expect to get a hand pay when I'm such a low bet player. 😂 As for being a "sucker" for playing slots, education makes you NOT a sucker. It's entertainment. Been to the movies and paid THOSE prices lately? I play, have fun, earn hotel stays, enjoy life, and do it within a budget. Oh, and play more video poker 😉

[@jjones317]

I don’t get someone has never hit especially in 30 years. I’m one that has walked in and it within 5 minutes at the WinStar and a at couple in Shreveport Louisiana. And I’m not a fool, I never play jackpots back, instead I treat myself. I have hit like $400 and played that back but not often. You have to be honest about when you lose as well.

You highlight tribal Casinos, but what about cruise lines? Most are based out of the carribean and you can’t gamble until you enter international waters. Lower payback amounts? Less favorable?

@@kevinb4079 Awesome explanation! Thank you.

If you are lucky enough to get a hand pay, does it have to be done on the casino floor? The one time it happened for me, I felt like I had a target on my back and promptly left. Also as a woman, this can be worse if some creeper watches this all happen.

It depends on the amount you win if it’s a $1200-$10,000 hand pay you have to get it payed on the floor but if it’s a huge handpay over $10,000 then you can request to have them take you to a counting room. I won a $12,000 progressive jackpot back in 2012 and they paid me on the floor even though I had requested a counting room so every casino might have different ways of handling customers payouts.

Marc…..in speaking of Roulette….I’ve never tried…and I want to give it a whirl, one bet, one time…table games are not my go to….Is there an advantage picking red over black, or vice versa? Not speaking of virtual roulette…an actual table. It should be as simple as a 50/50 chance…but just would like to hear it from someone in the know…cause that’s certainly not me LOL 😂 ..much thanks in advance.

The answer to the first question is very simple. Guaranteed that guy has never bet over $2 a spin in his life. You aren’t gonna hit a jackpot betting 60 cents, it’s just never going to happen

[@GambleSmart]

It could and it does, just harder for obvious reasons :)

[@Schweders]

It does, my wife hit $13,000 on .75 cents on the original Huff and Puff.

There are so many rumors and assumptions about regulating the casinos. Even with the casinos following the guidelines it's still hugely in the favor of the casinos. There is no need for them to do anything underhanded. Why do you think they call slot machines one arm bandits?

Liked it!
