What's the most money you ever lost or won at the Casino?

[Trouble maker]

im not a gambler. im into more of a sure thing. i did however put one dollar in a slot machine in the monte carlo. just so i could get a crown and coke before the comedy show we were going to(also to be my first free vegas drink, 21 at time). i pulled every other minute so when the cocktail waitress returned i could pull it like i had been playing the whole time. it took forever so i pull the 4th and final time it gave me nothing i start to leave. my buddy grabs my shoulders. im not a gambler so i dont know these things. after they stop these days they move the end ones. it went to tri7-tri7-tri7. it was like 2,300dollars. they luv to have people win. the machine only had a couple hundred in it. so im standing next to this lit up siren sound for 30min with i guess a manager. then he takes my friend and my self to a box on the floor gives them what came out of the machine. they dont even count that shit these days they put it on a scale and it said how much the machine paid out. then they gave me cash and kept talking saying how glad they were i won(since i told them i was 21 cuz they asked for id, and it was my first time gambling). they gave vouchers(sp) for all kinds of stuff. dinner at the steak house in monte carlo. also gave me helicopter tickets. also a tickets to the variety show at shit cant remember where it was. but they had two strong ass russians, one would balance one handed like a pushup from the middle of his chest while the other one was holding him up. then they had magic, then a comedian. i dont think ive ever laughed so hard in my life. probley cuz i was drunk as shit, cuz i was given 2300 buck earlier for shits and giggles.

it was awesome. "how much have you gambled in your life?" 1 dollar. it paid out tho. so im never gona do it again. some people said so how much more did you gamble. i said not one cent. i got lucky it dont happen twice!!! in casinos that is. thought about doing some black jack. but i felt so weird being the youngest guy in the place and as ramrod said the other day when i showed him my pic "you look like your fucken 12." cuz i do.

can you imagine what the payout would have been if you played the Max coin in??I don't think you want to know!!Casino's love the gamblers that play one coin!!next time you play slots..always play max coins!if it is a two coin denomination..play two..three,,play three!!the slot machine has no idea if one,two or three coins go into it..but the casino does!thats why the manufacturer offers this option!there are only a couple of machines out there that are actually even across the board with one coin vs two..these are some that igt offer..

sadly I am NOT allowed to gamble because for 8yrs of my design career I designed Slot Machines, jackpot controllers and digital displays for the casino industry.


games likes:
all of the monopoly series
clint eastwood (dirty harry and fistful of dollars)
slotto
men in black
etc.

However I am allowed to play the tables which I like to do anyways. The most I have ever won was $2300 starting with roulette and ending with black jack.

As far as slots, my girlfriend always plays those and the highest she has won was $1100.

I have never lost any money, just always break even.


remember when a house says they have the loosest slots and have a 97% payout, your still losing. What is 97% of a dollar, its 97cents....

[Trouble maker]

That always kills me. How can you win?!?

You put in a dollar and get 97 cents back.

And for all you who do. Thanks for paying my salary.

you can win....you just have to know how long to stay on a high cycle machine...and how soon to leave a low cycle machine..I have been watched by several casinos thinking that i am using some sort of cheating device.Just remember...that humans program computers..and computers have characteristic patterns also.....that is all....

[Trouble maker]

That must have been nice! Maybe I am just a poor player who doesn't know when to quit, but I have the worst luck ever.

I think they tweak those slot machines with software or something. They seem to be artificially intelligent in a strange sort of way... like how they tease you with some early winnings to keep you going and hooked, then they start coming up dry until you are out of cash.

this is the cycles that slot machines have..that I am talking about..

[Trouble maker]

their programs are not set to payout at certain intervals or times but set to pay a certain percentage of monies ententered in over amounts played.

and

at any time a pit boss can changed a loose slot to a tight slot and vice versa

this takes alot of time,and the machine has to be pulled down,gaming commision called in to verify e-prom chip change,and then finally seal the cpu board with yellow seam tape.They usually shy away from this unless extremely necessary.Were you a designer,or slot tech?

I played at Vegas 1 time. We went in a group of 20 and I don't like to gamble. On the last day I said OK I'll give it one shot. I put a $20 in the "Wheel of Fortune" slot thingy and on my first pull I hit "Spin" and won 1000 quarters which = $250. I immediately cashed out and walked away with my winnings

old lady next to me said the same thing. your not factoring in the fact that if i had played double coins i would not have won!!! it was funny she looked over to me and said "you should have played double coins" sweet if i had done that i would be the misserable chick that sees a kid win and has something bad to say. like "you could have won more". if i had i would have seen the machine i was just playing win to the next ass that had a pull on it. im not a gambler just wanted a 6dollar drink for 1dollar.

when you go to Las vegas and look at the huge extravagant buildings all over the place, and you think that's all paid by all the losers that went there, it should be clear to even an imbecile that it's all rigged pretty bad, and that anyone who goes in there and gambles is just a chump, unless they really know how to play teh card games.

[rbob93]

Not "Rigged".....Just that the house has the odds advantage

If you understand that and know which games & bets knock the house edge down you win

On a personal note...I do best at a craps table.....cards don't give me enough control on the house edge
