IN AND OUT OF THE FLOW

Heaven, hell and everything in between By Frank Scoblete   When I was an athlete there were games where near perfection seemed to exist for me. It was hard to miss a pitch or a basket. Everything just seemed to come to me. Of course, the equal but opposite was also true – disappointingly so. […]

ME BAD

Saving Money For Slot Play By Frank Scoblete   Don’t you hate it when you think something similar to the following thoughts? “I really used up little Timmy’s college fund at the machines. Me bad.” “I just got carried away at the machines and kept taking out lines of credit until I ran out of […]

THE GREAT COMP DIVIDE:

Why players earn more comps on slots than video poker By John Grochowski   Carrie has been playing slot machines for longer than she cares to remember.

Ostensibly, the Super Bowl crowns the NFL’s best […]

LOSING TO THE WORST PLAYER

The short life of the River Rat By Jack Clayton   There’s one in every crowd. The loudmouth who mucks up a quiet family dinner, the athlete who turns the ball over and costs you a winning ticket at the sports book, or the guy at work who makes one screw-up that ruins eight hours […]

SHIFTING GEARS

Favorite games come and go By John Grochowski   All casino players have their favorite games, but those favorites aren’t always set in stone. These favorites evolve as games change and players gain experience. Today’s blackjack player might be tomorrow’s three card poker player, and today’s slots player might be tomorrow’s roulette player.
