The I knew would come at last has come at last. There are now side bets on slot machine. I'm not taking about super-sizing your bet to invoke some kind of feature, but a side bet that is completely independent of what happens on the reels. In this case it was based on the roll of six dice on a machine called Tattoo.

Rather than write down all the details twice, please see my new page on Side Action Dice.

As always, I welcome all questions, comments, and corrections.

The question for the forum is would you make the Side Action Dice side bet?

Considering the base game is likely worse, sure!
I partially did the math in November because I made a bet with my buddy on the return on the game. I won. I guessed either 91% or 92%, he guessed lower. But he did well on the side bet as he rolled a 5 of a kind!

This is old news. I played this 6 years ago in Arkansas.

Won $250 on it I believe!

The problem was I liked the dice part more than the slot part.

It's a blurry image but is this machine using poker dice? Also, what is the red die for?
Have you tried 22 tonight? I said 22.

I was thinking the same thing. IE, why is this a side bet rather than an independent game? Seems like Yatzee would be a good name.

But the edge is too high for me. Pass.

Don't hesitate to tell me about new games or side bets you see that aren't on the site. It is nice to have eyeballs all over the place.

That's unrelated. That's a Super Times Pay Poker hand. I just took a quick screenshot of my phone of me verifying the poker dice math back in November (the picture of the spreadsheet). Apparently some of us noticed the game a bit earlier than the Wizard did.

No no, go ahead. It would have been funny, I bet.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.
