What to do with $25 in slot play?

| Mijogi Member since: Dec 31, 2011 Threads: 4 Posts: 8 | I just won $25 in slot play by playing tic tac toe with a chicken. Yes, you read that right. Anyway what should I do with it? Should I play slots? Should I play the cheap machines or go for the higher dollar ones? I think they will also let you play video poker with this money too. I'm thinking that is probably my best bet. They have machines that are marked 9/6 video poker, which I was thinking of doing. But again the question is playing the higher or cheaper machines. Sorry for my ignorance on this, but I don't usually play machines unless I only got 2 or 3 bucks left then I will try my chances. I'm just looking at what will give me the best chances of making more on this money. I also thought of playing one hand in video poker and cashing out to play the tables but I don't know if it will let me do this. Any thoughts? |

No, you have to play through it all. Even very basic play at 9/6 JOB VP is better than most any dumb slot machines. So do that. Play for the lowest denomination, but bet max coins. |

| MathExtremist Member since: Aug 31, 2010 Threads: 46 Posts: 2521 | I second MrV's opinion. Go for broke -- you're not a slot player, so if you lose playing a quarter game it'll be the same impact as losing playing a $5 game. But if you win at the higher denom game, you're much happier. In order, I'd play the following: 1) One spin of a 2-coin, $10 machine, followed by one hand of $1 VP (Double Double Bonus) at max coin. 2) One hand of $5 VP at max coin On the flip side, you could always just sit down in front of a high production value penny slot and enjoy the show for half an hour or so. Look for the ones with the biggest LCD screens and fanciest cabinets as a starting point. You're much less likely to win big bucks, but let's face it -- you're probably more interested in entertainment than big bucks if you play tic tac toe with a chicken. :) "In my own case, when it seemed to me after a long illness that death was close at hand, I found no little solace in playing constantly at dice."

Find something big they will let you use it on Bet Player at Baccarat; or Red at Roulette or even crank it through that JoB 9/6 machine to at least get a good deal. You don't know much about other slot machines and obviously don't want to since its such a high house edge rip off, so find something half way enjoyable and go for it. |

This is SLOT PLAY....not a table coupon. What is there to know about playing a slot machine? I hate slots and my wife plays them!!! At least I got her to play VP sometimes. I tell her, "You know a monkey can play a slot machine." Her reply is "Yeah.....but every once in a while the monkey wins!" |
