"In the early 20th century, slots were made illegal. To get around this, slot machines were made to look like vending machines and players would actually get sticks of gum every time they played."

"The big six wheel is a pure sucker game, with the house edge ranging from a whopping 11% for the best $1 bet to an astounding 24% on the special bets."

"In order to win a jackpot on a progressive slot machine, you must play with max coins. Otherwise, you are simply making the jackpot bigger for the person who will eventually win it."

"A typical big six wheel breaks down the following way: two special symbols which pay $40 or $45, two $20 stops, four $10 stops, eight $5 stops, fifteen $2 stops, and twenty-three $1 stops."

"Slow and steady is the best strategy for slot playing. That way you can play for a longer time with the same money and take advantage of more casino perks, like free drinks."
