Fun Ways to Play the Slots Machines

by J. Lawson


Playing slot machines has become popular among so many people aged 21 and above, that even schools and churches have become tolerant toward their people and parishioners playing them; and it is no surprise to find some of these churches and schools using them for fund raisers. You can hear of “Casino Nights” being held in this and that school or church that draws many people and is quite a success! Good people patronize casinos and look at gaming as a great escape from their hectic life; if not just to have time to relax from hard work and to have fun and be children again playing a fun game. It could be good therapy for those who are suffering from mental and physical strains. I once was diagnosed with walking pneumonia and no amount of medicine was able to relieve me. Since I love to play video games, I asked my husband if he could bring me to the casino. As soon as I was there, I forgot what the doctor said I had, I never even coughed one time. I was having a good time and was laughing a lot as I was winning. Remember what they said about “laughter is the best medicine?” I went home cured, much to the surprise of my doctor. So, whenever I feel down, my husband and I simply go to the casino and have some fun with video games-the slot machines!

Video games have attracted millions of people all over the world for they have become very entertaining and therapeutic for some people. Las Vegas and similar places will always survive for they provide one of the needs of human kind and that is to have fun, to laugh, and to forget their worries for a time. Grown-ups do with slot machines what little children and teen-agers do with their video games- play and play them again to have fun! And there is nothing wrong with that. That is why even schools and churches as I have mentioned above, don’t frown at those people who openly claim that they play slot machines or any games of chance anymore. They even are agreeable to have their parishioners and parents of their students to raise funds by bussing them to casinos since a lot of them do declare that they love to play this game of chance. Now, casinos get smart by attracting the whole family to come to their places. To cater to the whole family, casinos make their places family oriented. They provide shows for the children, an arcade for the teens, big swimming pools, bowling alleys, concerts, good family shows, and a large buffet with scrumptious foods for everybody’s taste. And while their children are safely enjoying these things, they have the time to enjoy themselves playing slot machines or other kinds of games of chance in the casino. So, everybody is happy! And if the family is happy together, they remain together!

If you frequent the casinos, you understand the feeling of exhilaration and the rush of adrenaline as soon as you push the buttons of video games. They capture your interest and focus and you live for that moment only. The casino owners knew how to attract these people by offering comps, and that means free food, hotel accommodations and even money to play. How can you beat that? People are attracted to places like these when they know they get a good deal and most especially if they know that the slot machines or the video games in those places pay well. Besides, the slot machines that you play, nowadays, have become games beyond your imagination of fun and adventure. You want to come to them and play them a lot. They are exhilarating, they are dynamos, and full of fun! Casinos spent lots and lots of money on updating, and making new slots to lure their customers for slot machines bring them most of their revenue.

Nowadays, people who play slot machines are not really considered gamblers even though they play with money. They are not embarrassed to say that they are going to the casino or that they are going for a vacation to Las Vegas, or similar places with casinos, with slot machines, not like a long time ago when going to casinos was looked down upon by the “ goody two shoes “ in their communities. Bus loads of senior citizens are taken by bus everyday to casinos near and far from their residences for a day or two of fun. They must be having a lot of fun for you see them in the casino every day. They don’t seem to mind if the trip is long to the casino. Never mind if they lose money on that day, tomorrow they win big! Casinos seem to be a land of promise to them, makes them feel

young and hopeful again, and looks like a heaven on earth. On their faces, there seems to be the hope that on this day, they will hit it big, and I think that it gives these people a good reason to keep on living. They have so much fun in casinos playing slot machines. I have to mention slot machines, not games of chance like “roulette” or card games because that is where I see most of them. Slot machines provide lots of fun for them. I sometimes see some senior citizens, who can barely see the screen, and yet they have the patience of a saint in pushing the buttons; others are so old that they hobble and wobble toward the machines, even pushing you away, trying to beat you to their favorite machine. My mom, who is 86, is like a new person when she is playing her favorite slot machines. At home, she is all aches and grumpy, but when she is in the casino, there is a bounce in her steps, a girlish twinkle in her eyes, and that hearty laugh that you seldom hear at home. So, it doesn’t matter if the ride is long to bring her there, and for the money lost or won, but to have her live her life like she was young again is worth the time spent in the casino.

I am sure that playing slot machines have brought couples closer together. I see the fun that couples have playing slot machines together; they give each other high fives when they win, even small wins, or one mate cheers for the other and is proud when either of them wins. And if a group of young ones visit the casino, they have a blast! There is so much cheering and howling and hooting from them. You can’t help but smile that they too find playing the slot machines quite an amazing trip.

My husband and I spend a lot of time talking about slot machines. They have become one of our favorite past times, a hobby that has become lucrative to us. We are avid fishermen, lovers of sports, and gold prospectors among other things, and playing slot machines has become equally a very challenging and delightful activity. We studied the machines extensively, read a lot of books, have played the slots for decades and in the end we have become professional slot players. We have found how slot machines work, when the probability is good that they are going to give a big hit, when you should leave them, when to bet high, or when to bet low. We have come upon strategies that will help you win more often and cut your losses during your period of trial and error while you learn about them. Finally, upon suggestions from family and friends who have seen our success with slots, they have suggested that we come up with a book to share our “guarded secrets” from long years of playing slots so they too can benefit from our success, we have published an e-book available at our blogspot.
