Etiquette at Slot Machines

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0) Bookmark and Share

Over the last few years, slot machines have changed a lot becoming more and more technologically advanced. While many players are used to these machines, so aren't aware of how the game has changed. While slot machines are usually a solo event, there are almost always players around you and you and them need to know how to act.

Marking your seat
If for some reason you need to get up and leave your seat, you can mark it with your jacket but do your best to return as quickly as possible. It used to be that players would mark their seats with coin cups, but a majority of machines have gone coinless. If you're going to be away for anymore than 5 minutes, bring your stuff with you and find a new machine.

International comedic phenomenon Jeff Dunham is bringing his critically acclaimed "Spark of Insanity" tour to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

You're about to enter the Twilight Zone (not the one filled with Vampires) for some oddly surreal slot playing. With completely out of this world imagery, ranging from full moons, dinosaurs to the host, Rod Serling himself, this slot machine will probably make you wonder exactly what world you've entered. If only it had William Shatner and the gremlin, that would be really awesome.

The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Florida launched blackjack tables a year ago but the rules of the tables have changed drastically in the last 12 months. Originally, most of the tables had a $25 minimum with others having $100 but that didn't work out and the tables gradually lowered to $15. Then they introduced $10 tables last October during slow hours, like early mornings on weekdays. Now, there are always $10 tables to play!

Joe Giaimo, the Vice President of Table Games, said that players were looking cheaper games to stretch their dollars in these economic times.

Besides, Florida faces the opposite issue of Las Vegas and Atlantic City, instead of busy summers and slow winters, Florida goes the other way: busy winters and slow summers.

With Michael Jackson's very recent passing, new stories are coming up everywhere about business deals he had done. One of the odder ones was in 1999 he worked with Don Barden, a Detroit business mogul, to attempt to start a casino in the city of Detroit.

In July 1998, Michael Jackson joined Barden in Detroit to announce that they wanted build a $1-billion resort and theme park near the Ambassador Bridge if Barden got voter approval to build a casino.

At the end, the two of them didn't get the voter approval they were seeking and the project never materialized.

The Chicago Tribune has reported that the grand reopening of Joliet's Empress Casino drew in over 2,000 people and backed up traffic for miles around. After a fire back in March, Joliet's Empress used the time for rebuilding to fast track their plans of remodeling the casino. Three months later, the casino is open again and doing business.

But it's not all fun and games with the reopening. The industry has changed drastically since the casino has been rebuilding. "So much has happened since the fire," Frank Quigley, the general manager said, noting the economy. "We're trying to see what the new normal is going to be."

With the new Star Trek movie coming out in less than a month, I thought it would be worth highlighting the Star Trek Slot Machine! Using an all-star voice cast of Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner, the game feels like you're on the bridge of the USS Enterprise. The best part for me has to be the bonus game where it's your job to remove tribbles from the bridge by matching Sulus, phasers and communicators!

What also makes this game unique is that you are encouraged to log in when you play. This lets every medal you win be tracked to your account, allowing you to progress through the storyline as you play.

The $335 million face lift involves a newer riverboat that's the size of two football fields. Workers are spending the rest of this week moving slot machines and putting the final touches on the new riverboat.

stretched_dollar.jpgWith the economy continuing to take its time recovering, players are feeling the pinch on their wallets. We've done some research and have come up with a few ways to stretch your dollars while playing slots.

Play lower denomination machines
This seems like a no brainer, but some of you may be aware that lower denomination machines generally have lower payouts. What's worth remembering is over the course of an hour, you'll spend much less money. If you're playing nickel slots with a 90% payout for an hour, you'll loose on average $18.75, while a 98% payout $2 machine can result in losses of $30 an hour. Now, this is a theoretical situation, but the principle is the same.

Monopoly Slot Machine Jackpot

Oh Monopoly, besides being the best McDonald's promotion ever, it also gives you a chance to be a dick to your friends (or maybe my friends have been playing it wrong all these years...) Anyway, this video is of the Monopoly slot machine and the woman hit the Rail Road jackpot while playing in Atlantic City, there's a nice bit of irony.

Las Vegas is all about being bigger than life and nothing shows that better than the spectacle that is put on by the casinos . From beams of light seen in space to the tallest chocolate fountain, Las Vegas holds the records in some odd categories.

5. World's Largest Gold Nugget

Hand_of_faith.JPGNothing says wealth like a giant chunk of gold, so when the largest gold nugget was discovered, the Golden Nugget casino knew they had to have it.The Hand of Faith is the largest nugget still in existence. It weights 59.9 pounds (27.21 kilograms) and was discovered in Australia in August of 1980. The Golden Nugget bought this piece for $1 million. While it is currently the largest gold nugget in the world, much bigger ones have been discovered and since melted down. The largest gold nugget ever discovered weighed a whopping 158.4 pounds (72.02 kilograms) and was named Welcome Stranger.

tight_slot.JPGLast week we posted about where the loosest slots are usually in casinos. This week, we're going the opposite way: where the tightest slots are in the casino. Why should you know where the worst casinos are? So you can avoid them.

Near Casino entrances
A while ago, casinos put their loosest slots up in the front so passer-bys could see people win big and enter the casino. But that plan didn't exactly work, since people never went inside, they stayed at the entrance to play! So now the tight slots are in the front, with loose slots further inside.

Around the sports book
Those betting at the sports book are usually dropping their money to bet on games, not on slot machines. A loose machine by the book does nothing for the casino or players, since the book players have little interest in the slot machines.

Resorts Atlantic City got busted for selling mislabeled beer. Back in March, one tap was labeled Miller Lite and another one Miller Genuine Draft. But both the taps went to the same keg, Miller Lite.

The same thing happened back in August with Coors Original and Coors Light kegs, only that time both taps went to the original keg.

With it happening twice in less than a year, the New Jersey Casino Control Commission fined Resorts AC for $5,000.

Atlantic City just can't catch a break and today's news is just another punch in the stomach for the city.

The first piece of news comes from Pennsylvania, where a bill was just introduced to allow for table games in their casinos. If this bill passes, it will be a huge hit to Atlantic City, since many players will no longer have to travel to New Jersey to play. If the bill is passed, table games could appear before the end of this year.

If the idea of more competition from Pennsylvania isn't enough, a recent study has been released about the Revel Casino that this could be the final nail in the coffin for two to three casinos in the area which currently are leeching from the resort casinos. For those of us in the industry, we've been saying for a while if AC could get rid of a few of the casinos, everyone else would be much better off but no one wants to be the one to leave.

"While Revel may cannibalize many of the aging facilities in the market, it may be the shot in the arm necessary to take Atlantic City into a more positive direction," said Joel Simkins, author of the report.

This is at a time when all three of Trumps casinos are failing and the Tropicana can't even find a buyer. By the end of this year, it's looking like there may be a little bit more room in AC.

trumpvtrump.JPGDonald Trump made a bid to purchase Trump Entertainment Resorts, Inc, the company that owns the three casinos in Atlantic City that have his name attached. Trump was on the board but left back in February because he felt it was being mismanaged. Trump's offer comes right after a plan to sell of Trump Marina fell through. It's looking like Trump wants to take the company private since bondholders are currently demanding that the company enters bankruptcy.

Trump Entertainment claims that Pennsylvania is the cause of the difficulties, but Trump thinks the company is being mismanaged. But hey, it's got his name attached to it and most people think he owns it so it may be worth getting it back under his control.

More on this as it develops.

But that's not all, the video doesn't show it but there is the bonus round that gives you the chance to be Luke Skywalker and blow up the Death Star yourself! I'm pretty sure every fan of Star Wars has had that dream at least once, right?

There are few things in life better than winning a big jackpot in a casino. Some people don't have the luck to pull it off, so they use their own methods. We don't encourage any of these methods.


Not full of money, seriously.
5. Elizabeth Williams takes out the trash for $52,283

This heist is the smallest of any on this list, Ms. Williams only walked away with a litte over $50,000. In October of 2006, Williams had only been working at Riverbend Palace Casino for only a month. So she took three bags of trash out but the security cameras only saw her throw away two bags: one had "mysteriously" disappeared. Into her car. She then stopped going to work. When police found her car, it was filled with money, same with her apartment. They found a shopping bag of cash, a bunch of unopened furniture. Suffice to say, she was arrested.

Not full of money, seriously. No, seriously.4. Richard Owens & Randy Girouard barge in and try to take $100,000

In February 2008, Richard Owens and Randy Girouard took the aggressive route: armed robbery. The two of them entered Cypress Bayou Casino in the early morning and robbed the place at gunpoint. Within a few minutes of the robbery, the police had already caught them.

The moral of the story: sleep in your room, not on the table. When you're asked to leave, do so calmly.

red_casino_dice.jpgAll across the internet, people write articles about how to control the toss of the dice to get the desired results. These claims are iffy at best and are usually a way to get money from people. Because of this, people look for other ways of getting an edge while playing which include using crooked dice. Don't try using any of the methods detailed in this article, if you go to jail it's not our fault.

Changes to the inside of the die are more difficult to pull off, especially given methods of security used by casinos. But even though these are almost never used, you should be aware that they exist. Under no circumstances should you try any of these methods.

Loaded or Weighted Dice
These dice are heavier on one side that makes the opposite side come up more regularly. Also known as gaffed or cogged dice.

How it's done
A small amount of a heavy metal is inserted into the dice, usually near a corner or edge. Just because a die is transparent doesn't mean it can't be weighted. Weights can be placed behind the spots on the die.

How to find it
The first test is the most basic, drop the die into a glass of water a few times. All dice should be denser than water and sink. If the die is loaded, then the same number should always come up. Another method is the pivet test. To do this, hold the die between your thumb and index figure at opposite corners, with a loose grasp, a weighted die will naturally turn downwards.

Floaters or Floats Dice

These dice are lighter on one side, making that side come up more often. It is similar to the weighted dice.

How it's done

The die is hollowed out in a section to lighten that area and impacts the rolls.

How to find it
Like the weighted dice, this method is even easier to uncover. A floater die will (as its name implies) float in a glass of water.

It looks kind of like this, only not done in MS PaintTappers or Tapping Dice
These dice are a cross between floaters and weighted dice, but use mercury or metal weights on wires to weight the die.

How it's done
The metal is stored in the center, but through tapping the side of the die, the metal flows into a different hollow area to weigh the die. Tappers cannot be translucent and need a way to muffle the sound of the tapping. Because of these limitations, tappers are rarely used.

How to find it
Tap each corner of the die to set it and then use the weighted die test. It is possible because of density of the metal being offset by the air from the hollowing that these dice will partially float in water, neither touching bottom nor surfacing.

Changes to the outside of the dice after the jump....

After a 30 year stranglehold on table top gaming on the east coast, Atlantic City is starting to get worried about changes coming to Delaware and New York. For years, Atlantic City was able to shrug off the slot parlors at racetracks but that may change soon.

New York is used to being cornered by the casinos in Connecticut and the boardwalk in Atlantic City but the racinos in Pennsylvania have started causing more problems for the state's racetracks. With many new facilities opening up in Pennsylvania, New York's racetracks started losing horses as their owners were drawn to the bigger promotional jackpots in Pennsylvania. In attempt to keep their horses for races, legislation is being pushed to allow for racetracks to get electronic gaming, like blackjack and craps, to entice customers. The Saratogian reported that:

"The measure passed in the state Senate, 54-8, on Wednesday, but has just come before the Assembly Codes Committee, whose approval is needed before the full Assembly can vote on it. "It seems like a pretty complicated bill," said committee Chairman Joseph Lentol, D-Brooklyn. "It seems like it may be kind of difficult to consider this year. I think it could affect labor contracts. Our counsel hasn't had a chance to look at it yet."


But New York isn't the only state looking to keep their customers, Deleware is facing many of the same issues.

Watch Man Eats 120oz Steak/Sides and Lives on RawVegas.tv

Think you're hungry? Rich "The Locust" LeFevre was recently at Brand Steakhouse in Monte Carlo, Las Vegas. A retired competitive eater who holds the world records for eating donuts, chili, pizza, jalapenos and more. He's a small guy and the video shows him eat the entire 120 ounce porterhouse steak, normally intended for six people. Oh, and he eats a side of creamed spinach and au gratin potatoes. It only took him 40 minutes to consume the $267 steak, which he got for free for finishing it. I'm not sure what is better, the fact that he says he normally eats very healthy: brown rice, steam vegetables and occasionally chicken breast or that after eating almost 10 pounds of food, he's still hungry and plans on taking his wife to Burger King for ice cream.

For an interview with Rich LeFevre, head over to the Thrillist.
