I've just recently started going to the Casino, I've moved and there's one close by. I like to play the nickel and penny machines. My favorites are Lucky Lemmings and Cashman. What do you like? and what are your stratagies when playing ie: do you do max bet all the time, all lines, play till so many misses? I'm interested to know how and what everyone plays.

I love the penny and nickel video slot machines! I can't even choose a favorite. (A couple of fun ones that come to mind are Gettin' Lucky and Larry's Lobster Mania.) I just love going for the Bonus Round!
My strategy... hmmm... I usually play all or most of the lines, but not the max bet per line. I'll actually start out playing the minimum bet per line, until I get ahead, when I'll increase my bet per line. Or, I start losing more than I want, and then I'll move along. I'm always hopeful that I'll have a higher bet per line going when I hit a bonus!
4 weeks until my next trip to Las Vegas....

Yay, Las Vegas! I've never been there. Would be fun to go. Ive been playing ones that have 9 lines or choosing 9 or 10 lines and doing max bet. When i first went i did one bet per line. But on Lucky Lemmings i did max. I won around $200 dollars. That was the first time I ever really won.

When I go to the casinos I usually go to the Sports betting area and bet on the horses. However, from time to time I go to the casinos that don't have sports books. So in those cases, I usually play the slot machines.
I usually play the small ones, like the nickel slots. But now and again I will throw about ten dollars into the one dollar machines. The reason I say throw the money into the machines, is because that is exactly what I do. It never comes back out.
However, I do know some people who are very lucky with the slots. They usually put forty dollars in a 25 cent machine, and always come out a winner. I'm not sure how that works, but I am glad someone is able to do it.
For me, I will stick with the horses. I usually bet Win Place or Show on a horse that has 6 to 10 odds. Seems like I almost always come out of there with more than I went in.
Good luck to you at the casino! And have fun!

I've never seen Sports betting at the casinos I've been to. It sounds fun. Slots are fun, but I've never been brave enough to play the dollar ones. I'll stick to the nickel machines. I always give myself and allowance and don't go over that. Putting away my winnings so when my original money is gone I'm done. Then I can reach into my pocket and see what I won.

I love the penny and 2 cent videos. My faves are King of the Nile, and also Queen of the Nile. I have done fairly well on these at a local casino. http://www.mysticlake.com/indexmain.html I had won almost $500 one time there. I usually play with about $50 or $100 on them and am there for 12 hours or longer sometimes. I get free rooms and meals so I go as often as they give me a room etc. Hahahaha!!
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I went to the casino last week, didn't do very well, but I did win $20 playing Queen of the nile. I like that one, it's a lot of fun. I took $60 with me and went home with $23. But I was there several hours and had fun. I guess you can't win big every time.
