It never fails me to be amusing – every time I go out with friends to visit the local casinos, they make snide comments about the slot players. My friends make fun of them for having a high house edge or playing purely on luck. The same friends go to the Blackjack tables to try to martingale their mortgages.

It’s hard to believe that slot machines are so bad. Yes, the house will win. But isn’t this true for all games? Let me defend slot machines for a second. Here are my top ten reasons why I think Slots are Awesome https://www.magcloud.com/user/m918kissmonster.

There’s no need to stare at strategy cards every five minutes or try to keep up with the number of cards dealt. Just spin the reels, and you’ll be lucky. If you get lucky, then you can spin them again. They can be spun again.

Want to play Blackjack with an extra twist? You can’t. Blackjack games that include sidebets such as “40-1” give you two jacks of spades. This is the biggest twist. You can play slot machines with bonus games, progressive Jackpots, classic, 1-line and video slots. There are a wide variety of slots to choose from. Guess what? It’s easy to leave one machine and go to the next. There are no rules. Simply sit down and start spinning.

 Many table games have a minimum wager. Not so at slots. Slots allow you to choose between a high-roller slot machine that pays $1000 per spin or a penny machine that pays just one cent per spin. Slots are available for players of all bankrolls.

While there are some table games that have progressive jackpots, they are not as common as slot machines. It is almost impossible to find a slot machine without a progressive jackpot than one with one.

If you take everything that you have and put it on the roulette wheel, there is no way to change your life. You can play slots the same way as you do every day and suddenly, you win $200k.

 Have you ever played Blackjack late at night and been tired and drunk and thought you were “hit” when really you should have “stood”. You don’t want to be greeted by the person next to you shouting in your ear. In slots, if you accidentally hit the nudge button, people around you won’t care.

It’s so relaxing to play slots. You can relax, play the slots, chat with a friend, or see the boxing on the big-screen TV. You can watch boxing while you play craps.

Play at a table of blackjack for a while, then play at a machine that offers you the most comps. The best comps are given to slot players than any other casino player.

No waiting. There is no waiting for the wheel or the dealer’s payment. You can keep spinning the wheel as fast as you like, or slow as slow as your heart desires. Then you can get up and go.

Slots can be noisy. They are also bright. Flashing lights. Cool icons. It’s fun to play slots. Watch the first two BAR icons line up perfectly and then see the BAR icon in column three appear just below the payline. Then you look down and realize that there is one more nudge.

This is the kind of thing that dreams are made of.

Don’t make disparaging comments about slot players next time you visit a casino – sit down and have a few spins with them!
