  • Steve and Matt Bourie, from the American Casino Guide, discuss 8 things to never do in a casino. They explain why you should never do these eight things and, if they are not avoided, how they can lead you to having a very bad casino experience. Topics covered include: drinking too much alcohol; getting a credit card cash advance; over-betting your bankroll; chasing your losses; getting a credit line; cheating; taking credits left on a slot machine; and blaming other players, or dealers, for your losses.

    For those who don't want to sit through long-winded explanations, here they are.
    1)Don't drink too much.
    2)Don't get a credit card cash advance
    3)Don't overbet your bankroll
    4)Don't chase your losses.
    5)Don't get a line of credit from the casino.
    6)Don't cheat, or even attempt to cheat.
    7)Don't take credit on a slot machine that belongs to someone else. (Losers weepers, finders keepers, I say.)
    8)Don't blame your losses on other players

    I usually only put 20 in a slot machine at a time. One time I was playing a batman slot machine where you got to do the hero and switch to the villan back and forth. Some how 20 bucks lasted me over an hour. I wasn't hitting big but i was hitting enough to keep me going and had the best time. Then another time I put 20 bucks into buffalo wilds and did a 3.60 bet and hit a bonus on the first spin and hit over 300 bucks so I immediately cashed out and left lol

  • @darodg1

    Thanks guys. I knew all of what you said and practice it whenever I go to a Casino. ONE thing I didn't know was about the money left on a Slot Machine Rule. I gamble mainly in Cripple Creek and have seen a few times where money was left on a Slot but thought someone would be back to continue their play. Here, a person can either prop/lean their chair on the front of the machine which tells people they'll be back or you can get a placard at the Cash Booth that reads, "THIS GAME IN PLAY" DO NOT TOUCH". Good to know about the money left though. I never knew that.

    Something to note on credits left in the machines. The majority of machines I see are designed to leave you an odd number you can't spend. You're forced to cash out a minuscule ticket or leave it planned in the machine for the next person or apparently to set them up for disaster.....

    Before heading out there for first time in 1998, I watched a lot of available videos. Then there was a documentary on PBS about Vegas and slot machines. It was a great primer for first time gamblers. And I follow many of the tips they gave. First one I follow to this day is to never play the winnings. Its harder to do that now with the ticket system. It used to be easy to follow this with cash payout machines. So lets say I win $75 on video poker. I'll cash out, cash the ticket, and then put the $75 to take back to hotel. Then it goes into the safe or other safe place. It makes the trip home. Since I never play more than I take, its a great policy.

    When you brought up about the Bahamas, it reminded me of a time back in the early 1980s were several friends and I took one of the cruises out of Fort Lauderdale to the Bahamas. Once you get out into international waters they open up the casinos on the ship. We made it to the Bahamas and we got to the casino there and played until it was time to go back to the ship. I kind a lost all my money and when we got back on the ship and out to international waters they opened up the casino again I had a little bit of money stashed so I played until I lost that. My one friend was doing really good And I would swing by his table to check up and see how he was doing. I asked him if he wanted a drink and he said sure and give me a $20 chip. Well this happened I would say about eight or 10 times which every time I would get a $20 chip. When we got back to Fort Lauderdale on the way home my friend basically is talking about how expensive the drinks were on the ship. One of my other friends said what do you mean? The drinks were all free on board. Well I got the stink eye cbecause I kept taking the $20 and bring him drinks. To this day he never let me forget it.I just thought it was a funny little story.

I cashed out, went back to my room and put 50% of the money in the room safe and swore not to touch it for gambling purposes. I only played with the money I designated for gambling. This has served me well and it works, if you have the will power to stick to it!

( back then....1 Euro was equal to USD$1.55...so I wasn't a poor man by any means)....next thing I was comped a few drinks....not that I asked....but thanked them and tipped the waitress a hefty sum......but it taught me a lesson in life

    RE taking credits on machines...wouldn't the best advice be to call for an attendant (or security) BEFORE you even touch the machine and let them decide what to do? I feel that Matt's strategy of cashing out and placing the ticket on top of the machine can still get you in trouble, as it will take a review of the security footage to show you had no bad intent. I think that, in most cases, if you use the approach I suggested, you will not only stay completely out of trouble, but maybe the casino would actually allow you to play the credits in some cases.

      you should NEVER under any circumstance leave a machine without cashing the ticket first, no matter how little of a time you’re gone for. once you leave money and walk away from the machine it’s free game

    Number 7 happened to me just recently. I sat down at a machine and put my ticket in, put my card in, hit max bet. Didn't even look at the last payout or anything. I knew the machine I wanted to play it. Security came over and told me there was a bit over a dollar left on the machine. I said sorry I didn't even notice. Then he wen't into the rules and how its theft and the person who forgot it was upset etc. I explained to him the person never even came over and said anything, it wasn't a big deal I'd gladly give them the money back it was a simple mistake. I pulled a $5 out (its all I had other than what was in the machine) and handed it to the security guard and told him just to give him the 5 and tell them sorry for me. Other than being told to make sure I pay more attention, which I most certainly will and will just hand my few cent leftovers to someone instead of leaving it that was all that happened luckily.

    #7 The rules are different state to state. In Maryland if someone see credit on a slot machine. It's call abandoned funds. Now you can't just cash it out but you can insert your money and play as if it was your money.

    • @tmiicon2925
      @tmiicon2925 5 років тому

      to me that makes the most sense and cashing it out (if posessionof the machine has been ceded to you by the establishments rules/policys eg the previous player left it unattended longer than the permitted time with no sign or word to the pit host) should be okay too because its credits not legal tender/money. when you sit there you "rent" the machine from the establishment as its patron as generally they are renting it from the manufacturer the machine and its credits are owned by the manufacturer(the cash input by players is owned by the state and establishment owner NOT the credits. Considering the current consensus views this issue people should be able to be arrested for using and cashing out THEIR OWN rented/purchased credits in the machine and thats not logical is it? IMO as far as I can tell from a technical standpoint the "credits" are owned by the manufacturer under control of the game.(where I play there are even signs indicating "malfuction voids payment blah blah blah.." if that is lawfully true that means the credits are already forfeited TO THE game machine/its owners by default. Its relevant here to note: Neither the establishments nor their state's have any way of taking the value of credits directly from a machine without commanding it to print a voucher or perhaps I could imagine through some other manual record keeping process that would have to be honored by crews maintianing the machines..usually its people sent by the machine manufacturers(ie their true owners.)
      Just as players only resume limited rights to their exchanged credits' value by printing out a voucher from the machine under good faith principles where it relinquishes the value of the credits to the voucher(owned whoever possess it..and therefore naturally becomes property of the establishment if dispossesd by anyone else while on its premises)..within a frame of time and if in good condition usually an ATM style machine or the establishment by some other means is expected to redeem back to the players the cash/legal tender value of the voucher which is then of course fully owned solely by whoever is entitled to it by whatever laws of the land. Based on how the syatem works as far as I can tell the only thing the establishment or state should have indsiputable claim to in the process is abandoned vouchers on the premises and not in possession of a player or at a machine/rented space occupied in good faith by a player.
      Its arguable that those parties(state and casino/establishment) may have claims to unused credits calculated on a machine as: abandoned,"misplaced" property(intellectual?) as the original lease/liscense holders of the machines but its a claim just as flimsy as any player who is allowed (under the terms of the establishment) to "rent" that machine by inputing their funds and or merely being sanctioned to occupy it. To that extent it would strengthen house claims if they posted rules that convey that players only are considered having taken possession of the machines if their are no unclaimed credits on it among whatever other house rules they make clear to the patrons. In other words the house does not convey occupation of the console to players until all stated conditions are met (same as if they were conveying a sub-lease to an apartment to them...if terms are not stated or statutory they are not enforceable.) As sensible as my view on this may sound(to me at least) its best to avoid having to try and convince a judge to agree with anything you or I have ot say..just follow at the very least the house/casino rules if not the state/nation's position on these issues...and cooperate as best you can if things go wrong by anyone's mistakes. Its been my experience that being a do gooder with money(at least the substantial sums) pays off more often than not.

No one was gambling in the vicinity and I actually waited for five minutes or so in case someone went to the bathroom. No one returned so I put five dollars in and then cashed out.
