Consistent $1199.99 hits or lower all day is fine by me lol
Consistent!! 🙏
Great advice. My only hand pay was a Grand for $10,700. I was betting $1.76. It’ll happen when it happens.
I took my parents to Choctaw recently. Bankroll was 3K. I wasn't looking for a handpay, but guess what? About 3 hours into our trip I was playing on a circus machine $1 dollar denom and going thru the bets...I was up a bit, around $500 and hit $15.5K on a $16 dollar spin (second spin at that denom). My first handpay and was in a state of shock, as were my parents. Like I said, I wasn't chasing it and it finally came after many years of going to Vegas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. What a feeling. But, I 'm keeping 5K back for taxes next year in a savings account....
You're absolutely correct. Over the last month I've been to the casino 3 times and I'm up $1800. Just taking the small wins.
I hit 700.00 on .70cents.Thats a jackpot to me.
Glad you addressed this. Reality is if you’re not betting a minimum of $10 a spin, you’re not hitting a jackpot. The odds of hitting 1200X or 600X on a $1-$2 bet is so unlikely.
All of my hand pays have been won wagering $5 or less per spin.
@@kevinb4079you must play slots everyday
$3,750
75cent bet quarter machine
Ive hit like 20 jackpots this year betting less than 3.75. U playing bad machines lmao
I take around $400 sometimes $500 but I always carry my winners bank with the key left at home any win of $100 goes tri folded in to my winner bank and when I come home surprise to see 7 to 8 $100 bills do invest on winners bank you Will never come home broke.
I shoot for the 8 or 9 hundred $ pays. My wife is into the 'handpays'. A couple of years ago she had a fantastic year at the casinos and was so proud of her wins.....until tax time came...and for us folks over 65, remember that 'handpays' are added to your total income for the year come tax time and there is no deduction (W/L) for that as far as Medicare is concerned. We got hammered for our monthly contribution for Medicare for an entire year as we won enough to put us into the higher income bracket.
That’s exactly what happened to me and I wasn’t aware of it until this year. Lesson learned, I’ll shoot for smaller paybacks.
It happened to me, the last couple of years and I have paid dearly for a handpay.
I usually take around $300 and bet $0.50-$3 per spin. Hit a $1500 handpay on a $0.50 bet, so YES it CAN happen, and several big wins just under handpay level at various bets. My strategy is to gamble about half of the big wins for a bigger win, but make sure I bring home half profit, if I do hit. I tell myself, "I had to take a chance", but also leave happy with the win in the end. Gamble smart friends!
Oh please 🙄 I’ve been gaming since 1986. The house always wins. It’s hard to turn a profit. You mostly lose every time you go.
@@gasmith7486 true, haha… but on that rare occasion that’s my plan.
You hit the nail on the head, leave with the win and you will feel much better.
Love how you kept it real about the average gambler budget. That why I love this channel
Love all your videos, they’re so very helpful.
Here’s something I just learned for those on Medicare hitting hand pays. Medicare Part B premiums are based on your MAGI. MAGI is AGI with certain income categories added back. Like exempt interest. And gambling winnings .. losses are excluded from MAGI calculations.
Even though my W/L balances out and not paying any taxes on those wins, I had several hand pays over $10K, so I’ll be paying a lot more for Medicare B in 2024.
This may be helpful to someone not knowing about hand pays and being on Medicare.
Would like more info regarding this.
@@bingobecky1564 I should have first said that this applies to people who itemize their deductions.
Let’s say your total income is $100k and your hand pays total is 20K. Your W/L statement indicates you lost 20k, so no taxes are due, but now, your income is 120K, that’s what Medicare will look at to determine your monthly payment. You can google Medicare premium income limits and see how it may apply to you. Because I won a specific amount it put me into another tax bracket for Medicare income limits.
Thank you for saying this. I am the lowest of low rollers and I have gotten several hand pay jackpots. A 1500 keno hit on a .20 bet and over 9 grand on a $3 slot bet. Handpays are only fun when they are profitable. Even with that, my favorite wins are the ones that came under the wire. 😊
This is only for lottery. Lottery gets W-2 G at $600 AND 300 times wager. VLTs are lottery, so any winning $600 on a $1 wager will get a W-2 G while winning $900 on a $5 wager will not. You are supposed to report all winning regardless of whether or not the casino gave you a W-2 G.
Congrats.
How much did spend on that $1500 keno hit before you won?
Absolutely spot on, Marc - On 3 visits to Vegas from the UK since last August, I've managed to get 3 handpays (tax free thankfully, coz I'm a Brit). First on a $2.40 spin, got me $2,440 win. Second, on an older Quick Hits machine on max bet of $1.50 netted me $4400, and then the biggest bet of $3.00 on Buffalo Gold got me just under $2,000. It's down to pure luck - when some TH-camrs are celebrating a handpay of, say, $1400, but are betting $25 a spin, I despair. I always judge a win on the bet multiplier! Cheers
Never....chase.....anything.... in a casino. Nothing good can come from chasing anything (handpays, points, tier credits, cocktail waitresses and so on) in a casino
"cocktail waitresses" 😂 but true!
Marc, you are correct. We used to play large and got a lot of jackpots. Then started playing a tad less. We hit fewer jackpots but at the end of the year was farther ahead due to not having as much taxes to pay. Thanks for all your insight.
Thank you most youtudes do not show you all the losses only the big wins. And the tax man is looking for you every day .great luck all
Ahhh cherries jubilee… hate that game. Lol. I did ‘ the chase’ on cherries and came up short in 2 sessions ( about $800 total). Lesson learned tho. The chase is not fun
You don't necessarily have to pay taxes on your handpays. At the end of the year, you can also declare your gambling losses up to the amount of your handpays when you itemize your tax deductions. It pays to have a players card at the casinos because they will provide profit & loss statements at the end of the year. Otherwise, this is great advise - don't chase handpays; you'll jprobably just wind up losing a whole lot of money.
Yes, but only if your standard deduction isn't higher (it isn't for most gamblers) and you have enough losses to offset all the wins, plus it still increasing your gross income, so could push you into higher tax bracket. :)
I can confirm....Handpays received each of the last 3 years and I could not write off the losses because I was better off taking the standard deduction each year. One should not assume you can write off losses.
Correct, and self prepared tax form done incorrectly will catch up with you and the penalties are huge
Mr Mike Slots recently went to the Bahamas and he said there are no taxes unless you win at least $10k there. He plays higher bets and got several wins that would have been taxable in the U.S. but not there. $1200 is just too low in 2024. Maybe in 1984 that was a lot of money but it’s not hard to win that now especially in a high limit room. Doesn’t mean you’ll profit but do $25 spins(or higher)and I can almost guarantee you’ll get a handpay almost every casino trip.
@@gregrowe1168 Just because he wasn't issued a W2-G for the wins in a different country doesn't mean he doesn't owe taxes. It's still considered income and by law should be reported to the IRS. The catch is the IRS doesn't have any record of you receiving this income so they have no easy way of tracking it without the casino issuing a W2-G. But that doesn't mean they couldn't track it down if they wanted to.
I got a hand pay once without trying. My $1500 hit was $1000 after I had taxes taken out. Then I felt like I had a target on my back because of course there’s a crowd that gathers around to watch what’s going on. I left the casino feeling nervous and sweaty and suspicious of anyone who looked at me!
Yeah.....it's not the amazing experience some make it out to be. I'll take a $900 win over a $1200 jackpot any day. Same payout after taxes and without all of the fuss. I prefer to be able to quietly move on with a big fat voucher.
Why did you not get confidence from your father?

@@1439315 And now I have the one video on your TH-cam channel as exhibit A.
@@kevinb4079 what causes such a level of inability to merely go out in public? And do normal things?
Thanks Marc, I'm a low budget player and I'm happy with doubling up. With all your teachings I've done that several times
Great to hear!
I've never hit a hand pay. Heck, I'm happy if I can win enough to not walk out afterwards in the negative!
Even is a win in gambling.
What I like are channels that post everything, wins and losses not only hand pays and high limit ones at that.
I couldn't agree more. I got my 1st two handpays last year of $1400 each. Paying taxes sure took the wind out of my hopes for hand pays. I recently got on a hot run on Huff n More puff. 2 back to back mansion bonuses on $5 bet. I walked away with $1700 tax free after about 5 minutes of play. Felt so much better than the hand pay
Can you tell me why you got $1700 tax free? Does your state not tax or did you mean that from your total of the two $1400, that you only got $1700 after taxes??
@@ilovenoodles7483 I think all his winnings added together total $1700 after many spins rather than making $1700 on one spin. If he had gotten it on one spin he would have paid taxes.
@ilovenoodles7483 you can cash out over 1200 tax free if you hit it on multiple spins. Or multiple bonuses. It's only taxed atleast in the us if it's a single spin or single bonus win over 1200
@ilovenoodles7483 because 1 of the bonuses paid $1100+ and the other paid $700+. I played it down to $1700 then cashed out
Another super video! As someone who is primarily a table game player, your advice is right on spot. Don't discount those small wins, because when you add them up, they can be bigger than you ever thought possible. When I do play slots, I usually am happy with a little win. Granted, it's hard to leave a machine when I've won something small, but I still leave with a profit. Keep the great videos coming, I'll be watching.
Hey Marc, great tip and so true. I hit 3 hand pays last year and paying the taxes this year sucked big time. This year I'm sticking to small wins like you said and it works. I've been playing .25cent slots and hit one the other day for $650 I was very happy with that. I'd rather hit 2 pays like that instead of getting a hand pay. Thanks for all your informative & helpful vids.
Congratulations on your 24k milestone!!! You deserve it 💯 percent!!! Just the beginning smarties!!! Let’s gooooo!!!
Thank you for addressing this and keeping it real for the average person that doesn’t have a large supply of money but enjoys going to a casino. I have learned from you how to play smarter, especially setting a walk away limit. Thank you!
My friend plays hours between 25 cents to 50 cents a spin,loses everytime!only chance you have to win is hitting a jackpot and the reality is have to play dollor to five dollor a spin to get a chance of a jackpot,I can’t afford that!Best bet is don’t play slots!If your after great comps by all means play, casinos love slot players!
I go to relax and enjoy my day. I have never won a handpay but I really don’t care if I do.
Good advice. When I play slot machines I don't even plan to win. I play to make my bankroll last as long as possible. When I do show a profit, usually a few hundred dollars, that's all it takes for me to be happy.
My goal too is simply to get enough play out of my bankroll to keep me entertained. I bank wins if I know I have bankroll to ride out the time remaining and often "run out the clock" with some bankroll remaining.
This is how I love to play. Doubling my money and moving on. I did this in Vegas this past December and I came home with $1100 profit and a great time. We going to vegas again in October and staying at mgm so I am sooo excited to try cherries jubilee. Thank you for your sharing your knowledge. ❤
Very wise! There is enough to do around Vegas that it only takes a little discipline to take a modest win or two and move along, instead of playing all day and hoping for that handpay that may or may not happen.
I never chase jackpots. I play slots for entertainment and hopefully not lose money. Many times we leave a casino with the same amount we went with
Its all luck , nothing else
Yes, very true. I’ve won $500-$800, but keep going until I hit a jackpot & end up losing it all at times.
Forget about the jackpots....set those cash out limits and focus on cashing out when you've reached your upper or lower limit.
I often go to the casino with $300 in 6 $50 bills. I put in $50 at a time playing $1.50 per spin. If I hit a bonus, I'll cash out and put the next $50 bill in. I keep doing this until I have exhausted all my $50 bills. Then I take my tickets and get my cash. I usually walk out with $100 to $300 ahead. Sometimes I do get a BIG one which I'll cash out and walk out even if I still have a some $50 bills left over.😊
Every now and then I play a game with myself. Anytime I gain profit on my bankroll, I switch machines. It's not the most profitable, but still fun.
Marc, It's good to hear that someone talks about the taxes and yes 245 + OK state taxes can add up quickly. I watch and follow you and Cowboy slots, along with Greg and Stacy. Me and my wife always look for you guys running around Winstar when we visit along with the others. I like how you guys explain the simple aspects of gambling. So just know that we are always paying attention and respecting your knowledge. You guys where right about cherry Jubilee and hit that 3 times in Vegas, the bad thing is that my wife never hit it once. But the sweet lady next to us said you just have to pay your dues and sit and play. I just had to laugh about that because it was so true. The good thing is my wife finally hit the ninja machine at Mega Star last year for $9700. She was excited and had finally paid her dues and taxes. Enjoy your videos and appreciate all the knowledge passed on to everyone. Thanks
So...i I kno u get tired of my VP comments BUT the great thing about .25 VP is at $1.25 wager, a royal flush is$1k...bad thing is, on average u hit every 40k hands but u nevr kno, that's why we play! Great advice!👍
VP is a much better game then slots,if you just want comps and don’t care about losing play slots by all means.
I agree with you. I love the small wins. I won a couple hand pays a long time ago. Not only did I have to pay state and federal taxes, but it put me into a higher tax bracket and I got taxed again. The biggie is that when we applied for a loan from the bank and had to bring in our tax forms, they asked if one of us had a gambling problem, because they saw the hand pay paper work. Since we didn't, we got the loan, but something to think about.
Great thoughts - thanks for sharing.
I am from New York. In New York, if you play $1.76 bet and won $700, you will get a w-2 from for the following year to pay tax on it. Because it won more than 300 times what you bet…but if you won $1500 on a $10 bet, although it is more than $1200, but is a hand pay with no w-2 issued… because is less than 300 times win…therefore, no need to file the tax on it… also if you had 3 hand pay with W-2s, but the end of the year,you can get the club member statement, if the lost during the year more than the W-2 money, you can claim the winning and also claim the gamble lost at the same time… I had 2 smaller amount last year $600 and $900 with w2s, but my friend, she had numerous $2000 or $3000 won, but she never got a w-2 because she bet $18 or $27 bet…..this might not for all other states…correct me if I am wrong…
I agree with what you say, one hand pay 1,700.00 playing 1 cent at 4.50. I usually play 3 to 5 dollars spins, l play to hit a good bonus. If l bring 500.00 and walk away with 1000.00, I'm a big winner in my eyes. I never expected a handpay due to my bet size,but when that one hit it was " HELL YES, BONUS"
You are so right Marc. Few months back I was lucky and hit 5 majors low rolling on different machines and immediately lost over half of it high rolling because I wanted that hand pay...kick myself to this day😅😅...thank you for your realistic advice
This is a great topic I’m a high roller x card member at hard rock Hollywood fl I’ve been gambling for 10 years won cars hit big jackpots you name it. It’s not worth it all when I’m winning 500k and pay a boat load of taxes.if you play hard set aside taxes for the following year trust me your gonna need it or you will fall into a hole quick💰
Thank you for sharing.....too many believe they can just write off losses and that's that.
Just last week I went into the casino, won two separate times on a machine, a few spins apart to a total of over $1,700,and paid no taxes. One off of a $5.00 bet then another off of a $12.50 both on Panda Magic. Later I told my husband this is much better than a hand pay because you keep all of the money... that you don't gamble back. LOL #BeginnerGambler
I didn't know I should WANT to get a handpay until I started watching you guys. But as for Cherries Jubilee, I played 3 different time with $200 per day - zip.
This channel is definitely for me! I always bring >500 each trip
Thank you for this topic I’ve seen some great channels great people who bet big up to 250.00. So a really solid bonus is 100 x the bey 25k. They get 1445.00 and say it’s a hand pay Jackpot. You’re right smaller bonuses add up.
They need to get going with raising it to $5800! I am so sick of trying to explain partial losses offsetting to the irs and my state.
Thanks Marc!
Excited to watch the live😀
I don’t chase jackpots but like to get one.The tax man definitely takes the glory out of it. So much better to get under $1200 hits, unless you hit the big one.
The threshold for handpays should be raised. $1200 was set decades ago. It should be much higher now, at least $3000 to adjust for inflation.
Love your channel! Great tips 👍🏻
I’m glad I live in Canada since we aren’t taxed on any lottery / gambling wins no matter what the amount 🎉
We're jealous!
@@GambleSmart If only I could win so it’s worthwhile lol
Appreciate you guys, great tips.
Wow! 24% tax thats huge! Im In Australia we dont pay any taxes at all! My biggest wins have always been on low bets ,Ive won the GRAND JACKPOT ON 50 CENTS!
Excellent advice. Thanks, Marc!
Always great advice You Rock 🤠
Thanks Marc, good subject.
Thanks for the daily tip Marc!
I also appreciate you guys releasing Part 1 of bingo machines, I look forward to Part 2!
@GambleSmart
Perfect timing for your video Marc. 🙂👍 I literally came home today from the Toronto's Casino Resort in Canada where I live. Usually I would stay most of the time at the casino for around 4 hours sometimes more depending on the day of the week and I notice a lot of gamblers trying to chase the progressive jackpots on the slot machines even though in the vast majority of cases it doesn't happen at all especially on the lower bet sizes. I myself always focus on the odds of the game and the smaller wins.
I have gambled before here and there, but I had to stop and google what "hand pay" meant. I just found yall's channel and started watching most recent backwards but if you have not made a very basic video with terminology or slang etc , or just a basic intro to slots video...I think that would be awesome! Thanks!!
I started doing that again. My first hand pay was when I visited Vegas just having fun, right before heading to the room. It was around $1300, which was cool, but at that time I was having fun. I started to try and chase more of those with high progressives and don’t get much, plus stopped having fun playing games I hate. Now I just take it back to basics and celebrate any wins that double me up. It allows the worry to go away and play a lot more games without worrying about jackpots or hand pays.
$100 typically all I walk in with. Might change it into twenty dollar bills or tens. Play free play first. If you win some might up bet. If you play pennies you win pennies, play dollars win jackpots.
We try to walk away from each machine after doubling or tripling up our initial 20 bucks, it's fun and we usually leave even or up and save that $$ for the next visit! We normally go in with $400-$500. I love your channel, good tips!!
Never had a hand pay. My wife and I make a 2 hour drive to Bally's Evansville once or sometimes twice a month. There are casinos much closer to us, but we've established our comps at Bally's and we really enjoy Evansville. 4 of the last 5 times we've been there I've hit just shy of a hand pay $900 - $1100. That's worth more to me than the hassle of tax forms and reporting a $2000 hit.
A $900 win is the same as a $1200 handpay if you end up owning taxes. You would have to win almost $1500 to walk away with $1100 after taxes.
@@kevinb4079 Makes sense. Thanks!
Thanks for the great video. Do you ever get up to casinos near Oklahoma City like Riverwind or Grand?
I’ve learned to appreciate slow and steady wins. They can add up to a hand pay without taxes or breaking the bank. I was sitting next to someone betting on nickels while I was betting 50 cents. My hold and spin bonus was almost 5 times hers.
So nice to hear you comment on this. In Wyoming with the horse racing slot machines, everyone is chasing a jackpot, and the casinos advertise a big win on Facebook so it instills more chasing.
Excellent video
Like you say it will come when you least expect it. Just luck. Since I started following you when we’re with Cowboy Slots. I have hit one hand pay and was not expecting it. Since then quite a few double and triple ups. Be glad if you can make it out not in the negative or nothing. Thank you, for the advise and tips.
I rather build up rather than hit a jackpot. Handpays mean you pay taxes on your winnings. We build up to just shy of handpay cash out and start over! We have fun. We take $5k for 3 nights and 4 days between the two of us. We've had handpays but more fun the other way.
Great advice, You just need to "NOT get caught up in the excitement". Thanks !! 😎😎
I love your Tip today. After winning 21 handpays last year and having to pay taxes, I decided just to be happy with nice line hits, and no taxes to pay. I did get a $1,200 handpay so far this year and wasn't real happy about it because of taxes. I only take $300 to the casino and enjoying the slots I play. Good Luck!
You mean you couldn't just write off your losses like so many believe? That a facetious question. I know from personal experience that is not always the case for many people.
@@kevinb4079 I did write off my losses and itemized. My winnings put me into a higher tax bracket, but, I also had to pay about half of what was due for taxes on my winnings. ($4,000 vs $8,000)
I'd prefer to hit three $400 bonuses than one $1,200 hand pay. In Louisiana, the state tax is 6%. That's in addition to the 24% to the feds. On a $1,200 handpay, you would pay $288 to the feds, $72 to the state and walk away with only $840. Numbers don't lie!
numbers lie? they do. if they did not, you would not be in the casino at.
Good topic today.
Until i got my first hand pay i really really focused on it getting it. When i did it was a $4 bet and a complete surprise.
More than 70% of hand pays I've received have been on smaller bets, $2, $1, $4, $5.
Then i was obsessed with getting a Grand jackpot. FINALLY got one by filling the screen - $2 bet.
Based on my track record I stay with smaller bets.
i hate the taxes! I had four hand pays in one night, all like $1300 and i was like dammit! No more winning! 😁
One correction, you are required to report ALL gambling winnings and have a record regardless of receiving a W2-G or not. The reality though is most recreational gamblers do not report their winnings without having received a W2-G. Hopefully the SLOT act will pass congress and increase the W2-G minimum threshold to $5000 or $5800 instead of the $1200 that's been the same since it started in 1977. 🙄
Rarely enforced and would only be done as part of audit. If you're gambling and filing your taxes in good faith you shouldn't need to worry about reporting every win.
My first and only hand pay was just $719.00 (HHR slot, totally unexpected because I play only small bets). That W-2G I received took all the joy out of this win. I lost this money in the next casino session, so now I have to pay taxes on zero profit.
It’s been a while since I’ve had a handpay. I go to the casino often-a couple of times a week or more. I usually only use my free play or small budget. If I can make a days pay or more in profit I’m satisfied and can leave. That’s one more week I won’t sign up for overtime at my day job.
The hand pay signals, to me, I done it correctly. I’m no longer just loosing. I don’t get hand pay every time but OMG it feels great. It’s not a everytime goal. Small wins do carry over
Good Morning Marc and this is true. I'd rather not have a hand pay and pay taxes to another state since Kentucky only has HHR machines and it's 68 miles from me. So when I go it's to Ballys now in Evansville. Most of time now I have on average between 40 to 100 dollars. I finally found some old school machines will be trying again. Thanks for tip.
Hand pays would be a nice experience, but I fully agree on not chasing them. Thanks to GS and Cowboy slots I found 3 weeks ago the countless videos watched have definitely gave me a great idea on how to manage last Saturday at The Mint Casino in Kentucky. Starting off with a $400 bank roll making setting hard limits for those not hitting machines managed to climb up to $800. I then proceeded to play off my winnings and stopped when I got to 443 which I called it a night after 6 hours of play time a lot of fun I'll take that full gas tank in winnings and be happy. Thank you for everything!
P.S. I stayed out of the high limit room and high vol-ital slot machines. ^_^
Don't forget to factor in any comps you may get!
@kevinb4079 yes never forget to use the in house card 😀
The $1199 $0.25 Progressive Video Poker Jackpot is the best win. Until they change the Taxable amount I will not play $1 (5x1) VP. We are 50 years past due for a change of the taxable amount. Should be at least $5000 now or higher.
I used to get jackpot handpays pretty regularly… until I fell in love with huff n puff! Now it’s been a while. I was only playing the old school slots before that. Hmmm…
I’m all about staying under the taxable amount LOL! That being said, I hit for $4409 on a $9 bet in AC. Needless to say, I was shocked! And shout out to you guys for the education…I asked for a check so I wouldn’t touch it.
Well done! Proud of you for asking for the check.
@@GambleSmart the funny part was the guy asking me three times if I was sure…well it was midnight, I’m a single female in a casino, so yep pretty sure I don’t want to walk the mile back to my room carrying $4K in cash…
No kidding!
@@GambleSmart Is there a reason besides safety for asking for a check? Last week my gambling neighbor won $7k on a $2.50 bet on Dragon Link, and also requested a check, which they took a while to finally bring.
I struggle with this because I have won 3 hand pays on $3 bets but all pre-2015 and all on old school style machines. They are so hard to find and I find myself just getting frustrated on these new machines that I'm forced to play because I don't have the bank roll for more. Lately, I just watch the slot channels and stay home.
They may not be conveniently located but there are casinos that still have a good number of these games out there.
Great encouragement video. Would love handpay but like bringing home couple hundred $$$ from casino too. Try $100 on $10 denom DD in high limit room when I'm up,very exciting & usually leave even or alittle ahead. See you all Wednesday evening
When I get back to even or up by a decent amount ($100 or more) I always take a moment to think of I want to continue or walk. Patience cannot be overstated when gambling.
how does your thinking process go , about walking or to continue
Hand pay is a function of bankroll mostly! Bigger bets make it easier to get into hand pay territory. I prefer no hand pay but wins under hand pay!
How do you feel about China shores machines
Another great video. Thanks I play Super Ball Keno and regular Keno. I would love to see y’all do a video about the odds on that machine. Also, do you think there’s any difference in playing a $.25 machine and betting five dollars or playing a one dollar machine amending five dollars thanks.
Maybe a little, but not noticable. For Keno, I would recommend the $1 denomination betting 5 credits.
Thank you For that inf because its true I take mu mom and she wants a big Jackpot and she ends loosing more 😮
Never do "Chase" anything. I just hope for a handpay. I just play as entertainment and NEVER go "expecting" to win. I expect to have fun. If I win then that is a bonus. Play your budget - PERIOD.
The lock box is so small! Hopefully I won’t win too much! 😂
I keep thinking how cool a hand pay would be. But i am only close to Winstar, and everyone says they are tightening the screws on wins making it not fun to play there anymore. I will be there in a few weeks and I hope thats not the case.
Great work on this new channel, i never thought that cowboy hat looked good on you anyhow. Lol 😅 have a great day
No such thing as tightening slot machines. People are just making ridiculous bets on "penny" machines. Classic machines would have maybe 50¢ max bets, now people are betting $10+per spin. Machines suck up $500 in a few minutes
@@irene1655 Do you have a recommendation for an average bet for the bingo machines?
I’ve been playing bingo slots at wind creek do you think it would be better to play like on a Tuesday when there ant as many people there
Makes no difference
I try forty bucks and hopefully win something to keep playing
Not related to this video but at slots o fun do the dollar machines take actual "silver dollars" or are the casino tokens?
I play mostly tables (90% blackjack), but like to use my free play for slots. There's an old-school Double Gold machine that I play on $1 denomination ($2 total per spin). I've hit $800 around 3-4 times on that machine and two $1,600 hand pays in the past 6 months. They do come, even if you just play $100 here and $100 there. Don't forget... it's better to win $1,000 on a single spin then it is $1,200!
I don’t think people necessarily chase the hand pays but they are more exciting. I tend to put more away for the trip home when I get one.
Oh many do! It's the primary goal of many players as evidenced by the many comments and questions asked in other videos. It's why it needs to be addressed. There are literally people who just want to hit a handpay, winning or losing doesn't matter. I assume they just want to brag about it on social media or it's a "bucket list" or "badge of honor" type of thing.
@@kevinb4079ok, I want the hand pays but I settle for the build ups also.
Chase profits
I know someone who hit $10,000 at 9:00 pm then played all of the money back by 9:00 am, if you win TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN
how can you tell if you have won enough to run.
@@DrSchor It's one of those things that you should know it when you see it.
@@DrSchorwhen you win back more then what you brought
