Deal Me In by Mark Pilarski September 19, 2008 Not all the important information is hidden Dear Mark: In our state, we don't have access to slot payback percentages so we as players don't have a clue what that percentage is. Your advice in a past column called "slot tips" was to play video poker instead of slots, and yet, wouldn't that also be bad advice in that video poker is just as random as slots are? Theresa P. Here's what I wrote in that column, Theresa... Read More
Deal Me In by Mark Pilarski September 12, 2008 Better half has the week off Dear Mark: Our local newspaper has been carrying your column for years and I must say, the education you dole out every week is a welcome relief to losing money every time I go in the casino.

Could be "them," that is, if "them" tightened the paytables, or it could be you, because of your skill level or the speed of your play, or all of the above. Rememb... Read More
Deal Me In by Mark Pilarski June 20, 2008 'I Told You So!' could cost you dearly Dear Mark: I enjoy playing the carnival game Let It Ride. I know, bad odds but its fun. So I don't play the side bets, Bonus or 3-card bet because I feel these are sucker bets and the house has big enough odds against me without adding to it. But every time I would have won at one of these side bets the dealer never fails to point this out and chastises me for not betting it, and then the... Read More
