When you walk into a casino the odds are already stacked against you.


When they proudly say they pay out 94.3% of the time, I am not impressed.

They pay out 94.7% of the dollars played, not spins.

So, for every $100, they pay out $94.70. But that is usually across just a couple of jackpots. Most everyone who spins the wheel loses. And you will lose over time.

The best thing to do with slots is limit your play; maximize your per spin bets; and leave right after you hit for more than you brought in. It’s when you keep putting more money in that you lose big.

Numbers lie......that’s probably not even close to the 17% they’re required to give back.

I believe a person who was in the exact same situation sued....and won the tilted jackpot.
