High 5 Casino
Another Facebook slot game that I recently discovered is High 5 Casino. This one wasn’t around during my last post but has quickly become one of my favorites. Every slot game is an authentic replica of the IGT machines that you find in real casinos. Currently, they have 19 games that can be unlocked and […]
Mystic Slots
Mystic Lake Casino is known for having some of the tightest slots in the state. But, if you go there as often as I do, you can start to find the machines that payout more often. But, don’t get your hopes up. You will still be lucky if you break even. They couldn’t afford to […]
Grand Casino Hinckley
We went to check out the Grand Casino in Hinckely, MN this weekend. I had heard that it was easier to win at this casino than some of the others in Minnesota, but that wasn’t the case for us. It’s just like any other casino, if you play long enough, you are going to loose […]
Night Racing
The 2012 horse racing season is almost at a close here in Minnesota. On Friday night, my girlfriend and I went to the track to test our horse picking skills. We don’t usually go to night sessions, which run from 7pm to 10:45 pm, but decided to see what it was like under the lights. […]
Facebook Casinos
If you want to play some of your favorite slot machines without going to the casino and losing any of your hard earned money, now you can. There are dozens of online casinos on Facebook that you can play for free. I posted a list of some of the top casino apps. Some even have […]
Betting tips
This past weekend I made all but one of my wagers using the SAM automated betting machines. I found that it’s easier to make multiple wagers and more exotic wagers using the machine rather than telling someone at the betting window. Say for instance, if you want to make a pick 4 with a combination […]
Handicapping Tips
Handicapping a horse race is more art than a science. I’ve been to about a dozen horse races in the last year, so I still have a lot to learn. One thing I’ve been struggling with, is trying to determine which information is the most important. It’s easy to get information overload when you start […]
Mystic Lake Derby
This Saturday I was at Canterbury Park for the first running of the Mystic Lake Derby. There was a seven horse field looking to take the $150,000 purse. It was a very close match and extremely hard to pick a winner. Unfortunately, there was a dispute between the 1st and 2nd place horses. The replay […]
Slot Picking
Here is a quiz for you. There are three identical slot machines in a row. The middle one says on the screen that it has just paid out a $86 to the last player. The one on the right says it paid out $1.25 and is next to the restrooms. The one on the left […]
Slot Machine Screen Touching
Lately, I’ve come across people who are touching or rubbing the screen on video slot machines in a futile attempt to influence the outcome. I think this is happening because most of the newer slots now have some form of touch screen technology that requires the player to select items, roll dice, or spin a virtual wheel. […]
