During our recent traipse around the countryside (NJ – Hickory – Jax – Cherokee – NJ), we happend to linger at an Indian Casino. I can attest that the ‘house’ was the only one that one in this visit. White men got scalped! Hence, I am revising my thinking about how to play in these.
We did well when we played big in the extremes of denomination (i.e., penny and dollar); in the middle (i.e., nickels and quarters) we had very little winnings.
On Poker, (my initial foray with my hand-written cheat sheet form the inet) I KNOW that you are supposed to hold “a low pair” as the about the sixth place on the list. In my play, I NEVER improved on a low pair. I played a lot of hands. I should have kept a stroke count, but I KNOW I never drew out to trips, two pair, or four. NEVER! I don’t know what the stats are, but NEVER! ZERO, nada, zilch. Either I was the unluckiest bettor known to man. Or those machines were rigged.
I did note that the pay tables on some of the slots were biased against the player (Three red sevens play the same as three any sevens.) And why can’t one take pictures in a casino?
Afraid some one might gather evidence?
