## Summary

The speaker shares a personal 4-step system for winning on slot machines in Las Vegas, based on visual cues, machine placement, and betting strategies. He emphasizes that while gambling can be addictive, he manages it by limiting play to specific trips.

### Key Points

- **Step 1: Cruise the Casino** [00:27] — Walk around the casino to visually inspect machines and listen for which areas are hitting most often. Look for machines with visual indicators like firecrackers or coin meters that are full.
- **Step 2: Play Machines with Full Visual Meters** [01:13] — When you see a machine where the visual meter (e.g., firecrackers or coins) is full, it's likely to hit soon. Start with lower denominations to fill it, then switch to higher bets for bigger wins.
- **Step 3: Play Near Women's Restrooms** [02:03] — Machines near women's restrooms often have money left by people waiting for companions. The speaker won $4,000 by playing a machine next to a restroom after someone walked away.
- **Step 4: Play Near Drink Service Doors** [02:55] — Machines near where drinks are served also tend to have leftover credits from players waiting for drinks. This strategy has worked for the speaker.
- **Budget and Bankroll Management** [03:09] — The speaker budgets $10,000 for a week in Vegas, spending $2,000-$3,000 per night. If he wins big (e.g., $15,000), he puts the winnings in the room safe to ensure he leaves with profit.
- **Use a Players Card** [03:46] — Using a players card improves luck according to the speaker's experience. He recommends betting max on higher denominations for bigger wins, but lower bets for longer play.
- **Airport Machines Are Tight** [04:49] — The speaker believes airport slot machines are set to not pay out, as casinos want you to return to Vegas. He once won $8,000 at the airport but considers it rare.
- **Gambling Addiction Disclaimer** [05:14] — The speaker acknowledges gambling addiction and says he manages it by only gambling during specific trips (e.g., SHOT Show) and living far from casinos.

### Conclusion

The speaker's slot machine strategy relies on visual cues, machine placement, and disciplined bankroll management. He stresses that while these tips may increase chances, gambling should be done responsibly.

## Transcript

gambling and I do it maybe once or twice a year and I've I've cut a system down I'm going to tell you what that system is and see if it works for is and see if it works for [Music]
the first step is I cruise a casino look around see what denominations are where you got your you know your 1 cent you know 5 Cent quarters dollars sometimes don't do the High Roller rooms because I'll just go through my money way too
I just visually look at the machines and just see if I also listen on top of that I've cruised a slot machine I mean a casino twice before just to listen to hitting the most what part of the area is hitting the L so make sure that's
your first thing you do is Cruise the casino step two is I when I'm walking mainly visual like there's a machine that I play a lot that I R A Lot in Vegas that is firecrackers when it gets to the top so as far as the visuals go
these three they full is when you start playing now you can play them in lower denominations and fill them up and then try to bigger denominations but when you see these walk you're walking around you see these put money in it if it's if
these are full I guarantee it's going to hit and you are going to win I've test tested it to where I put in like 1,000 bucks even though it's all the way to it when you're playing you know $200 a spin that's when you need to drop the
dominations now then it'll probably hit so keep an eye out for any kind of machine has visual you know like uh just not just the firecrackers there those with the little coins that when they're full you know walk around if you see
those try it you know I've played the oldtime school you know machines that you just pull the the handle down and those I don't have any luck at those cuz on it to tell you if something may or may not hit but the other ones you
they're visually as you're walking that you know is a good chance it's going to hit so step three me and the wife learned it we were in Vegas for Shot Show I think it was like 10 years
or 5 years ago 6 years ago and we were in a line for the buffet at the bagio to the women's restroom we watched these guys play it and they would just play for their girlfriends to fix themselves up and they just walk away when she
comes out so we watched it and we come out and we're looking at see if it paid out or not and it hasn't paid out on the machine so the wife told me she says just put 20 bucks in and hit Max bet so hit Max bet I won like $4,000 so now
creepy guys I know but you play the machines next to women's restroom and if you watch them people will put money in those things while they're waiting by the restroom I've actually had luck next to where those hidden
to bring you drinks I've had luck at those cuz people like to be next to that door to get drinks faster I guess I don't know it seems weird but it does budget I know that's a weird coming out of my mouth but I usually take if I know
I'm going to be in Vegas for a week for Shot Show I usually take about $10,000 with me and that lasts me the whole week now I'll budget myself per night how much to spend it's usually about 2 to 3,000 now during that process while I'm
doing it if I win like I don't know if I'm doing the $200 a spend I'm winning 15,000 I'll take that 15,000 and I'll put it in the safe of the room I don't spend it cuz I like to have the money in the safe so when I'm leaving I feel like
know what it is just because I spent $200 a spend you're going to get those big denomination wins 15,000 20,000 I've had 8,000 and then I've also had 2,000 it doesn't always work the hire the
the players card because every time I've machine I've had better luck cuz I've tested it without the player card and better to look with the player card that's just me you guys don't have to
spend the big mounts like I do I mean the just the denomination if you you yeah you may you're going to win but you'll probably break even or you know in special occasions you may hit a big so the denominations make a big
an awful lot I mean you can see it on the top of the screens if you get the visual machines it's like the Mini version of a jackpot if it's 10 bucks you're betting lower if it's 300 bucks it means you're betting higher obviously
so to me the higher I my wife has always told me if you're going to play a slot machine bet Max unless you just want want to kill time if you got if you guys flight in a couple hours play you know a penny machine and do $3 hours a bet you
but if you want to be there for 3 or 4 hours on one machine you could do that that long hit the big denominations you know you're going to be gone long you know what the hell another thing is at the airport in Vegas you're not worried
getting your luggage when you land I don't hardly ever anybody see walk by does happen I don't never see it but on the way back I don't think the machines airport to leave because they want you
to come back to Vegas like this last time I won $8,000 on a machine and granted I was betting $30 a spend but it was also a visual machine like I said I knew it was going to hit I just didn't know when so I just kept trying to see
left and I end up hitting I understand gambling is an addiction and there's I there to help people with that addiction I'm able to manage it because I make myself only do it at certain times when I'm out of town like Vegas for example I
only gamble when go to SHOT show that's the only time I go there I mean there's towns I live near that have machines but they're 3 hours away and I got other that's part of the reason and plus my wife would kill me if I go all the time
but it's fun for me it's kind of like a an escape so if you guys want to see more videos on gambling and how I do it or see the the winds happen stuff like that leave a comment below and we'll definitely do it take care
