    I walked in one once in Oklahoma and stayed about 5 minutes, couldn't stand the smoke and I don't gamble so they didn't miss me.

      To each their own, but I’ll never understand the attraction of voluntarily going into a loud, stinky establishment with a bunch of flashing lights that is statistically full of losers.

      Personally, I can’t or won’t bet enough to materially change my life anyway.

      just the facts, but you aren’t winning anything from the casino….if you’re really lucky, you might, occasionally be the beneficiary of a redistribution of chips from the other losers in the building with you.

      they didn’t build those big buildings and boats with money they lost.

        My uncle flushed his whole life’s savings and every dollar he had and could borrow into slot machines. He really thought he had them figured out but in reality they had him figured out. I told him with the software they have now it’s to easy for it to be rigged. Gambling the way he did is a sickness and they hammered him every few days for years with small incentives to get him there then they had him for days. It’s a shame how they can market to peoples weaknesses. But yes it’s rigged in my nongambling opinion

If it came out that the casinos altered the winners based on a specific player's profile, then that would prove that the games are in fact rigged and as such, illegal in operation.

            Do I think they are "rigged" not really and we go pretty regular for entertainment. Now there are times that they do seem to be paying better and other times not.........We are well ahead of them but one guarantee is if you go enough they will win that's just the odds but we know when to get up and leave when ahead, or if getting beat up, I have friends that will just up their bets and give it back......I do know people that have won pretty big my biggest was Jan 1st for $8200 one of our neighbors hit $154,000 at Megastar, smaller casino across Lake Texoma. We love the non smoking areas of Winstar and Choctaw and we go for pure entertainment. I don't go to movies, concerts, etc......and we don't bet real big but I've had ones next to me playing $125 a pull.......I'm not sure if the indian casinos pay out is same as Vegas, etc.......

              I know Oklahoma regulates the casinos to allow a certain amount of winners per month or the casino receives a fine. Just so y’all know Winstar chooses to just pay the fine.

                Just got back from Lake Charles and the wife and I lost our butts. But we had fun. It is our form of entertainment that we do every three months of so and win or lose we are going to have fun. We'll be in Oklahoma in a few months and have some more fun.

                  You want to win at craps. Bet pass line, take odds on pass line and place 6 & 8. That's all, not all those other sucker bets. you’ll thank me later.

                    An AI Bot brought this old thread and a old Marijuana thread back from the dead. The AI comments were deleted in the thread and bot is gone. Interesting the topics it revised

                      I’m a pretty boring craps player but that’s pretty much all I do

                        I get where you're coming from—it can feel a bit unsettling knowing that so much data is being collected while we play slots.Personally, I think it's a mix of transparency and risk management for the casinos. They use this data to tailor experiences and yes, maybe even to keep us playing longer. But I'd like to believe that reputable casinos are still bound by regulations and fairness standards.I'm curious to hear what others think. And by the way, thanks for mentioning that site for bonus codes. Looks handy for us newbies trying to navigate the world of online casinos! If anyone wants to check out those codes, here's the link: nodepositbonus.cc .

                          If its 10 dollar table I'll put 50 on dont pass and a single unit on every number but the point where the puck is at. It's a pretty solid strategy.

                            It’s my understanding that the commission monitors the amount the casino is ahead. They are supposed to finish the month with a ?? Percentage ahead. When the casino is way ahead and the month/week/day is nearing a close the casino loosens up and pays out to try to hit the mark and avoid the fine.
