FYI. Your name comes up several times in the video.
Once the machines went electronic, I was done with them, given how easy it is for insiders to rig them. And yes, I’m aware, towards the end, even the ‘mechanical’ machines were chip-controlled regarding their outcomes.
I really ought to go to casinos more often. After all, someone went to the trouble and expense of building those places for the purpose of distributing lots of money to the general public, so why shouldn’t I get my share?
Wonder why people never talk about the times they lose?
Thankfully I don’t gamble much. I’d spend $200 to win $20 so I just watch if I’m around casinos!!
Happened in a tent. The big building will open next year -

Fun-My oldest Daughter always win.
My dearly departed wife and I had a lot of fun in Nevada for our 25th. We drove all around, settling first in Carson City. This was back in the day before those printouts - a winner would get the dropping quarters.
Our strategy at the Carson City casino was simple. We played slowly, first I’d pull my machine’s arm and we’d watch the reels turn. Then I’d watch my wife pull the arm on her machine. We had fun, which was the point.
All of a sudden, she hit the jackpot! quarters started dropping, bells went off. I said “What did you do?” She responded “I have no idea!” LOL
The next step in the strategy is: walk away, don’t keep playing, because in the long run the house always wins. We took our winnings and had a really nice time at a fancy restaurant.
Haven’t been to a casino since she passed. Just not the same.
