Customer Reviews: Read 52 more reviews... Dated August 3, 2008J. Wooster (Houston, TX USA) The book has some interesting information on casino philosphy for placement of slot machines with different payback rates, something very important to regular slot players, but was written in the 90s when coins were still used. Things may have changed with the conversion to cash/ticket machines.  Waste money November 10, 2006See Lai Kin Gary 3 out of 5 found this review helpful I bought this book few days ago. I finished reading in a day. This book spent most of the time telling stories about gamblers but not the method to win a jackpot. The author does not have much experience in playing jackpot machine, he merely did some interview with real gamblers and casino employee. There is no pictures, no facts or figure to illustrate. In my opinion, It can only be consider as a easy to read book on jackpot. Do not expect to win anything after reading it.  Very interesting reading November 3, 2006David E Hillhouse (39303) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful I found this to be extremely interesting reading, as well as entertaining and informative. I don't think any of the tips and tricks in ANY slot machine book will apply at "Indian Reservation" casinos, but this book is a must read for any fan of Jersey, Vegas, Mississippi, or other non-reservation casinos.  Best Slots Book I've Read--Needs an Update May 10, 2006Brenda Gardner (San Diego, CA USA) 12 out of 13 found this review helpful I am not crazy about playing slots--but to get free room at the Venetian (LV) I need to put in hours each day, each visit. The Scoblete book is the most informative overall I've read so far on a subject where random chance is the rule. The chapter about which slots are loose was probably good advice--but people don't hear coins falling into the hopper any more--coins have been replaced with paper receipts. Paper payoffs also skew the advice in that excellent chapter on money management. These days most people deposit bills, not coins, into the slot machine and there is no bucket of coins to use or to reserve. Mr. Scoblete needs to revise this book. If he still gambles, I'm sure his well-thought 1994 guidelines would benefit from updating. I would be first on line to buy the new book. The organization and research of "One-Armed Bandit" are outstanding. The Best Book on Slots December 23, 2003Maria K. (Houston) 22 out of 22 found this review helpful I have read just about every book on slots but I resisted buying this one because I thought the information would be old and stale. Now having read it I have to agree with other reviewers that just about all slot books "borrow" heavily from Scoblete's work and are nowhere near as comprehensive. The book is a masterpiece of research and it is well written and extremely fun to read. I recommend this as the first and only slot stop you'll need before you try your hand at the one-armed bandits. | |||||||||||
