Is It Wise To Play 5 Cent Slots In Vegas?

Mallory-Herndon, 2007-02-21 19:39:44
I think for me it may be because at least you loose money slower. But what do you think? Any suggestions on good slot machines?

They are fun to play and can keep you entertained for hours. I never play maximum - usually just bet about 10 or 15 cents, once in awhile 25 cents a pull. My favorite penny slots are the house slots at Wynn and Men in Black if you can find them (Wynn has some, or did in November). All the casinos have penny slots and 2 cents slots, too. Whatever you choose to play, have fun!!

It is in my budget. Have a clear cut off what ever you play. And loose yourself while playing as if you do not have a care in the world.5 cent slots help you have a chance of winning a lot without spending a fortune. You have to play the max.

And if you don't know how to play the dealer and other players are allowed to help, but cannot touch your cards, It is a way to gamble and not lose so much or win so little,, stay away from the side bet..goodluck..

If on the other hand that turns into or you keep playing while you are winning and stop when you lose back to any double up point - etc this assures that you walk away winning. When it come to slot machines, the higher the denomination the higher the payback. You can play a great game in a very nice casino, drink free & watch sporting events in the greatest sports book on the planet. But, there are only 4 good ones, stick with those and you have a great gamePlay the pass lineTake the oddsPlace the 6 or 8 I prefer to get my rooms free rather than pay hundreds of dollars for them. Where the win goal/loss limit comes in is, well of course if you lose the you take a break, even if it's only for a few minutes. I have log books for my play. But, that does not mean it "can't" be done. Craps is a wild, jump up and down & scream a little game, Pai Gow Poker is more, have a drink, socialize and smile when you win kind of game.. When you give the casinos what they want you will begin to see offers to "come back and see us again". Nickel slots do not have a very good return, but you can give yourself a better chance to play for a while by playing a game with a smaller jackpot, the larger the jackpot the less frequent the machine is going to pay. As to the "there are no good slots" >Actually if you know what you're doing, slots, more specifically video poker can be played with a long term advantage. Later: "tshark" is right about Pai Gow Poker, I would have included it myself but you ask about slots and not table games. I will use nickel JOB as an example, I would play , which is 400 credits, 400 credits should allow you to play for quite some time, and give you a fair chance to come out ahead. The Orleans is a great place if you're interested, they have at least 8 Pai Gow Poker tables and most of them are even on Friday/Saturday night. The LV Hilton has 27 nickel 9/6 JOB machines in their sports book. I have played 18 hours in a day, and somedays, not at all. It's not much fun to have won up to 0 then give it all back. If you would like to try Craps, the Westin Casuarina has a

game during "happy hour">5-10pm weekdays< The Westin is a very nice casino, located 2 blocks East of the strip on Flamingo. It most certainly can, if you put in a little effort. To win, you must beat both dealers hands, to lose you must lose both to the dealer(there is one very rare exception). I know there are some two(coin Max), but I don't know if they have them at the nickel level. Check the card next to the dealer, before you set down, it will have the table "minimum" - "maximum" bets. VP has the dual advantage of allowing you to play, with a good chance to win. Craps looks complicated, there are between 180 & 200+ bets you can make depending upon the rules. Palace Station also has some tables. How much goes in, how much comes out, win vs loss, VP played, where I played, slot club points earned, etc . JOB usually does not lend itself to huge wins, but then again "usually" you can play for hours on . You're playing to "double up" , lets say early on you get hot and are up to , if you lose back down to you stop, again, you at least take a few minutes break, hey you won one, smile, celebrate, remember you're having fun. When you're winning is where it pays off. I have a great time, but I have to admit I take it just a bit more serious than most. >This also plays to your advantage because you are giving the casino exactly what they want "extended play". To do what you're after >play longer/have fun< find nickel machines that have a small jackpot(1,000-5,000) and only requires 3-5 coins Max to play. The dealer can help you "set" your hands, the players or anyone else is actually not supposed to(some casinos enforce this, others are more lax) - be sure and keep your cards over the table - The casinos want you to play for hours. Have fun, good luck. To ask for "checks" >place your money on the table in a non betting area, and ask for "change please", then if you're new to the game, tell the dealer you're trying to learn a new game >it happens many times every day. "lose money slower" > No thank you, I play both to have a great time and to win. It might end up being less, sometimes more, sometimes I play longer, sometimes only a few minutes. I don't see why a person could not use the same win goal/loss limit while playing slots if they wanted to. The way I play is, I break my bankroll up in to sessions per day, I plan to play 4-5 sessions. Most VP players start with JOB because it's fairly easy to learn, and it's the least volatile. The majority of the time I play quarter VP but I'm certainly not above playing nickels(for fun) .I play quarters> for fun, to come out at least even(usually better over my 2 week stays) & for comps(rooms,meals,Etc).. >I always look for dealers/tables that are having fun< Anything more than triple would be really good and to win 6-7 times your would be rare(unless you hit a Royal Flush) , a RF pays 0. If you set win goals & loss limits for yourself for each session, it will help you walk away with some money in your pocket. 45% of the hands are pushes because you will split one win each. Whatever you do, use your slot club card, you might just get some surprising offers to come back and play with them again. Pai Gow Poker - You receive 7 cards & make 2 hands, a 5 card hand & a 2 card hand, the ONLY rule is, the 5 card hand must be better than the 2. But, if you want to give a fun,easy game to learn, with a very low house advantage(1.46%) a try Pai Gow Poker is as good as it gets. "melissa" is right there are some slot machines that require you to play large numbers of credits to play for the jackpot, I have seen up to 300, it wouldn't surprise me if there were ones with more.
