• "Although all slot machines look alike, no two models of machine are the same. Some are far better than others, and you should learn how to evaluate each machine to see if its worth playing."

  • "Players with smaller bankrolls should look for multiplier slot machines because you get paid the same relative amount no matter how many coins you play. So one coin bet wins you ten, two coins win twenty, etc."

  • "Everything a casino does is carefully calculated to separate you from your money. Always keep in mind that casinos are businesses, and their business is taking your money from you."

  • "When you enter a casino without a plan, you've already lost. Winning players know beforehand what games they are going to play, what stakes they will play, and how much they are willing to lose."

  • "Nowadays, most slot machines have multiple pay lines. You choose how many lines to play and how much to bet on each, but you must bet at least one coin on each line to activate it or winning that line won't count."
