    I haven't posted anywhere in ages, and those who recognize me know that I'm a long time card counter / advantage player. In recent years I have increasingly been hearing on the grapevine that more and more bona fide advantage players were focusing on slot machines.
    ... I finally reached out to a couple of people in the know about a year ago and told them, "hey, I'm behind the curve, I need to know what's going on with the machines." And now I know, and on any given week I play more slot machines than I played in the entirety of my life prior to 2022.
    ... My experience in 2022 has been that slot machines blow blackjack away, requiring less bankroll and generating more profit per hour. Also, my wife says it's healthier for me, because I have to stay on my feet moving from machine to machine and casino to casino, and not just plop down at a table for a couple hours.
    ... I don't know if this forum is still alive, and I don't know the proper security etiquette for sharing this slot machine info. I recognize one name in this forum, Mickey Crimm, so I may defer to his advice on sharing here.
    .... I'm eager to discuss various machines/varieties and tactics. Although there is far less heat than blackjack, I did recently incur my first incident, and it was not a friendly back off. A local casino where I was well known and liked all the way up through the various shift slot managers. And then suddenly I was trespassed unceremoniously, officially for slot machine advantage play.
    ... I did go back a couple days later on a different shift and ordered down all of my comp/credits at their world famous coffee shop to go.

    Why , what’s with the cloak and mystery?

    99% of the people would not be able to make anything work.
    You know that .
    WE all know that as a fact.

    The casinoverse around the world

    ALREADY KNOW

    what,which, how,when and why the various slots are advantageous or not.

    ITS NOT a big secret and I find it farcical the lengths that people go to suggest otherwise, perpetuation of an urban fallacy 101.
    LOL.
    Those that claim so are just peddling nonsense about going to a SUBSCRIPTION based forum to “learn from the back in the day hasbeen video poker pro”

    Most people 99:9% that play slot machines
    Don’t
    Won’t
    give a rats arse about AP techniques, they may have a momentary thought about it but 99:9999999999% will NOT Pursue it , Will NOT be disciplined implement the basic principle of ANYTHING discussed here.

    Their sole reason to play slots are degenerate gambling tendencies at minimum.

    The casinoverse WORLDWIDE factor in the .00000001 % of people that ARE table to get an advantage from slots AND guess what.

    THEY DONT CARE.

    The billions upon billions of revenue collected from the other 99:9999999% of slot players versus the .000000000000000000001% makes the CLOAK and MYSTERY all that much more
    PATHETICALLY LAUGHABLE

    YES
    Some obstacles ARE put into place by the casinoverse AND slot machine manufacturers
    Being very few must hit by range jackpots, remove of readable meters etc etc.
    YES
    Video poker is no longer entirely viable in many places around the world. The machines are just phased out of venues, full stop.

    BUT
    The 99:99999999% still play , still fund the coffers AND still provide an accessible platform for the rest of us.

    CLOAK and MYSTERY my ass

    I did not mean to disappoint....
    .... Perhaps I'm in error? I'm new here I don't know the general flow and the main contributors. I would be happy to remove the redirects and the mirror post in the AP forum. That might keep the conversation going here.
    .... But when I first posted here I didn't read the message above that says that this is one of the forums that is negative EV non-advantage gambling discussion.
    .... Please indulge me, are we on the same page? Do you know what I am speaking of when I say "advantage slot play?" Please give me one example of a popular advantage slot play, and give me some sense as to whether you ever seek out such plays.

    • Violation of Rule #2: No Disruptive Behavior
    First up
    Very high and mighty of YOU to ask others to establish credentials thinking your first post here in a gazillion years establishes YOUR credibility, what a joke. “ Those that know me” really laughed my ass off , you think everyone was waiting for your return, Jesus returned, Lazarus’s next big riser from the dead.

    Secondly
    How good is your situational awareness skills ? Your minimum observation skills don’t seem to “qualify” you as an AP.

    If you take the time to look at any or all of the threads and posts on the AP forum, the very one you redirect this thread to , you will see there is next to ZERO participation on that forum. At time of posting ( today skipptophia time) the AP forum ,your thread, had 33 VIEWS, 1 reply of welcome from kewlj and one follow up from you.
    This thread on the open forum has had 222 views.
    Big difference
    Any ideas WHY?
    Can you AP that? Or do I need to spell it out for you.

    Can you do that?
    Can you answer without asking other members here?
    Be honest with your reply , personally I find APs to not be honest or forthright , more often than not they stoop to low brow rip offs, scams , and other semi criminal activities to support their AP failures,

    so

    LETS see if you can “ INDULGE ME”

    Tosser.

    Okay, thank you.
    I never thought of this forum as an AP rich environment, but I chose to reimburse myself here as opposed to one of the blackjack forums.
    .... I am happy to have the discussion here in the non-AP section. Do you consider yourself to be an AP? If you are hesitant to answer that question directly that is okay. Are there any slot machines that you play when you have a positive EV, the mathematical advantage? If so I would like to know which ones, we can share some notes.

    Advantage slot machine play refers to a method of gambling where players use strategy and knowledge to gain an advantage over the house. This can include utilizing bonuses and promotions, identifying machines with higher payouts or lower volatility, and implementing betting strategies to minimize losses and maximize winnings.

    One common advantage play strategy is known as "progressive betting," where players gradually increase their bet amount after each loss in the hopes of eventually winning big. Another strategy is "slot scouting," where players actively seek out machines with higher payouts or lower volatility to increase their chances of winning.

    Advantage slot machine play is not always easy, as it requires knowledge of the games and the ability to identify patterns and trends. It also requires discipline and patience, as players may have to endure long losing streaks before seeing any significant wins.

    While advantage slot machine play can increase the odds of winning, it is important for players to always gamble responsibly and within their means. It is also important to note that advantage play is not always legal, as casinos have the right to refuse service to players who are suspected of using these strategies.
