Tables are a suckers bet.

:confused: Actually, there is a bet on the craps table that is the best bet in the entire casino, every single game slots included. Learn more.
its just my opinion.

I have never failed to walk out with more than I went in with.

that is so funny, everyone i know never fails to walk out with more than they went in with. at least, thats what they all say. they wouldnt be spewing bullshit, would they? i just dont understand how these casinos stay in business, giving away all that money...
I just go there to have fun.

I am not a gambling addict in any way.

I would go once every month to Windsor Casino. I stopped going about a year or so ago.

They serve up a mean casino burger. :)

I went there with my GF and sometimes her parents. Certain machines pay out more often than others and some machines pay out more money than others. The key was to figure out which one was doing both. I won more money consistently this way. For example, my favourite machine was the Munsters one. That one paid out often and with double and triple bonus occurring often, it was only a matter of 7 pulls to get $500. I played it after that and got another $200. I then called it a day and had lunch.

Oh did I mention that because I live in Canada, I get to keep all my winnings.

My understanding of the newer electronic slots is that the casino can change the odds on the fly, while you are playing. If this is true, you really don't have a chance in hell of walking out with your shirt unless they feel like it.

That's absolutely not true, and is explicitly againt the law in most (if not all) gaming jurisdictions. In Nevada the casino can't update the game software, which includes the game odds, without a representative of the gaming control board present.

In older machines changing the odds requires roping off the machines and physically swapping out the flash cards containing the software. In the newer machines with remote download and configuration abilities the machine must disable while it is being reconfigured and remain that way for a period after it is completed.

The casinos don't need to resort to the lengths you imagine to make a profit. They have the laws of mathematics on their side.

Well that's good news, but I still hate slots with a passion. If I'm down to playing those or burning the money, I'll burn it. I watched too many of my friends go stupid with these things to ever put my money in one.

ROFLMAO!!!! What, you think everyone here never took a math class? You are so talking out of your ass that it's just sad. There is no system and no game in which you will EVER have an advantage without working with a team of card counters. I simply don't understand the need some people have to make themselves out to be some sort of gambling gurus and claim that by smart play you can tip the odds in your favor. You can't. PERIOD. Your claiming that you always win is akin to somebody claiming that they can control the weather with their mind. It's just as bogus. If you had the ability to make money at will you'd live in a casino, you wouldn't be here talking about it. Sad.
LOL

I don't play the tables because I suck at cards, dice, roulette, etc...

Slots are my game. I go for fun and to make a bit of money. Never go to the casino with the mindset that you will hit it big, because you never will.

If you are ever up this way, we could hit the casino and you can see me do it for yourself.

Slots are some of the worst bets in the house!


Properly played blackjack is your best bet.

properly played craps is your best bet.

Seriusly playing against the house is retarded. The odds are stacked against you. They've done the math already and set the odds with the worst case scenario for the in mind; there's nothing you're going to do to change them in your favor. If there was a way like counting cards used to be they'll just change the odds (6 deck black jack with reshuffling or paying out 3:2 on black jacks for single decks) to make sure they're in their favor again.

Play poker atleast that way you're just paying a fee to the casino to play and have a chance to get some money from other people or give it to other people.
