Anyone here play slot machines?

Last time I went to the local casino, played slots for the 2nd time in my life. With $50 initial I won about $400, and cashed out. Is this a feasible way of making money?

Ideally my strategy would be

>go in with $50
>if I win, I win multiple hundred $
>if I lose, I only lose $50

Am I smart?

I ran a casino for 13 years.

You'll lose, it's 1 long game that returns 98% of your bet. If you play 1 bet of 10$/game, you actually lose 0.2$. Doesn't matter if you win or not.

Never entering that place again, is the only way you win;

Yep. Casinos would go out of business if smart people like you went there.

you'll have more times that you leave losing 50 than win multiple hundreds. then one of those times you'll keep going and lose everything. but to be clear even with perfect discipline your strategy very quickly loses money in a 100% verified fashion

Play digital roulette, bet on red. You have nearly 50-50 chance of doubling your money.

>Go in with $50
>Bet $25
>If you win, now you have $75, bet $50
>If you lose, you still have $25 to get back to $50
>Repeat, but never bet more than $50 in one go.
I have played that once and went from $20 to $180 with this method.

Just lurk for a couple hours and hit machines dying boomers lost money on for at least 30 minutes. Your goal is to hit as many machines that haven't paid out recently as you can.

Fair warning, you will get thrown out of casinos if they notice what you are doing. Best bet is to act drunk or actually be drunk. Security is always homing in on anybody who looks like they are paying attention.

Poker, you can win if the players you play against are dumb/drunk enough.

Roulette can't be rigged, only there are bad maintained tables, wheels, automatic roulettes which give a player edge. This is the only to win on roulette, else it's just another 98% game. So playing roulette, the only tactic you should try is play the numbers which already came, or come the most. Or areas

there is actually some autism about roulette where certain people claimed to autistically be able to make money by detecting physical flaws in the operation of the roulette wheel as one of those posters was describing. it could have all been a scam but reading into it I remember thinking it seemed legit but not worth the effort and not attainable by the average person

I'm pretty sure slot machines work like claw crane games. I've read somewhere the probability goes up a few decimals after continuous losses.

BTW if you slip the waitresses a 20 they will give you their phone number. If say abiut half the floor girls are running a side business, if you know what I mean.

In SEA you can actually get a blowjob in the bathroom from cocktail waitresses for that 20. It's nice!

alright. to be honest i'd make online casinos illegal if i were king of the world. actual physical casinos at least have to do stuff like serve drinks, pay for locale, heat, electricity, security, put on shows and keep the place clean. and addicts can't gamble their salary away from their sofa, all alone. i don't trust remote servers to be fair play either, who knows if the odds are what they say they are.

You're retarded. Roulette is the safest way to win at the casino. Requires no skill or doing math in your head. Chances are nearly 50-50 of doubling your money. There's a reason why there's is a low limit on how much you can bet on black/red at one roll, as opposed to when betting on a specific number.

blackjack with basic strategy or baccarat are usually the safest ways to win at a casino not including poker. in european casinos with one green space roulette is ok but in American casinos with 2 green spaces you are a math brainlet being fooled by the casino if you think it's the best game

Like I've said, roulette requires no skill or any effort. Even a caveman could bet either on red or black. Chances of it landing on 0 or 00 are rather slim. You have roughly 47.4% of winning. Are you telling me blackjack has odds of higher than 47.4%?

depends on the type of roulette you play, American rules have a house edge of nearly 54%

my roulette strategy is wait for a single color to repeat 5-6 times then bet the opposite.

Craps is best odds, house edge is only 50.8%

Yes, blackjack has the best odds using the right strategy. odds are 99.x %. That's about 2% more then roulette with 00
