    A little critical thinking here. How much do you think that slot cost? Would you build or buy such a machine to give away money? You play, you’re gonna’ lose.

    BTW: My daddy taught me never to gamble; play poker but don’t gamble.

    Long ago, I heard about a “best” way to play slot machines. During a long cross-country road trip, I stopped in a US city famous for gambling to try the method. I started with $5 in quarters. Just over an hour later, my pockets and a cup were full of quarters – over $75 worth. I looked through them to take out any silver ones, but found only one. I then exchanged them for dollar coins and went to try the method again. Within seven minutes, I lost all. Started with $5 in quarters, finished with one silver quarter, worth about 50 cents.

    Only time I came out ahead was when I put a $10.00 bill in a machine and played it a while then took the payout slip and went to another machine. Lastly I took the slip and collected $10.25. Left 25 cents ahead.
