I became a Patreon member a couple of weeks ago and happy I did. Well worth it. We had about 3 straight days of rain in the Austin area but no damage that I know of. I have family in Houston. They left the area during the storm. Luckily they came home to no damage. I'm very grateful for proud of all the people that have done so much to help those that have lost everything. Thank you for the warm welcome. 
Oh yeah, just one more thing . Go Cowboys!! 

Playing slot machines and developing websites

Giants fan BOOOOO!  JK! GOOD LUCK on our season opener! Cowboys vs. Giants!

I play often in Amsterdam at Holland Casino. They have  a lot of vegas slots, like: AWS, Tree of Wealth, Lignting Link, 88 Fortunes, Buffalo, Quick Hit Platinum. In belgium we have only 4 casino's and they are small.

In case anyone else is interested, Scott kindly replied to a Facebook message I sent him.
He is hoping to get a little live play going at around 2:30pm PST (depending on travel etc).

I enjoy gold panning. I like to go out to Gatesville, Indiana in Brown County. It has some wonderful scenery out there. There is a little store there that a nice Creek you can go to pan at. People bring dredges as well. I always found a little bit of gold dust out there. All the gold was left behind from glaciers. Not going to get rich doing it, but is a wonderful feeling seeing gold!

I have never watched shark tank actually. I actually intended for this post to have a positive vibe and not negative. I have heard about the show though. I know it has billionaires on it trying to make money. I know Scott is well off, which is good for me cause I appreciate his vids and the amount he bets. I watch slot videos and can appreciate the intros to certain videos based on their personalities. This was just a creative idea on how I myself pictured him. I did not suggest to create this post, but saw it and thought to myself what a wonderful idea on giving suggestions to someone I appreciate. You say let Scott, Brian and Tee create their own image; that is what they do during there game play and is why I watch them; I watch other slot channels and even  if they loose I give them  a thumbs up. This was just an idea for an intro to their video.  You should have taken the time to view previous comments because Raja, as well as moderators responded. If they were offended by an original post suggesting ideas for an intro I am quite sure he would have said something, he does not seem to cut about the bush. Now as far as to my idea not being original, The Simpsons probably already did it; 10 to 1 you do not get that! If you need further explanation I would be happy to explain my original post. Bad new though it is not time for the Big Jackpot to become a trend on YouTube, because it has been happening for a while now!

I know this post has not been revisited in a few, so I decided to comment. So many great ideas have already been used by other slot channel though. I would have to say that the casino o realness videos of sdguy1234 would have to be my favorite so far. I could imagine Scott, Brian, and T rolling into valay parking, with Scott throwing up his keys of  his lambo to the valee. I could also see a doormen opening the door of the casino to him, a sign of respect and appreciation. Now this is the part I have considered a variety of different outcomes. I think it would be great for them to walk into the casino with rows of bombsquad members with #boom shirts on, to 3 different  3 reel slot machines. Whenever the Raja, Brian, and T reach them they each hit a jackpot of #Boom #Boom and #Boom and finally a 4rth machine initiates and lines up to Thebigjackpot. Just an idea that could have different variations though; of course the Simpsons have already done everything so not sure if this would be entirely original! Lol. Would love to hear ideas from others!

Yes they were...thanks 

I just returned from The Beau Rivage in Biloxi. Well it was an amazing trip...the company, the food and the champagne was dynamite...but the gambling was awful..I never got close to a hand pay and never got in the range of a bonus round..it was a joke after a while as my son called me Mama no coin!!! Terrible... played lock it link, Buffalo ( several versions), walking dead, willie Wonka, wolf run, they did not have a blown up version of Cleo,or diamond queen...bummer...game of thrones...my video poker yielded nothing either. Maybe one or two four of a kind regular (5.00) a push.. this was by far the most disappointing trip.. even the High Limit room had old machines as did the floor..they need to update...went to Golden Nugget and lost there as well..until I sat at bar and played video poker ..yahoo..won straight flush for 250.00 and dealt sixes for 250.00. Then cold cold cold...glad I am going out to Colorado to win some of my money back...this would be called paying it backward!!!!!

Video was great! The Big Jackpot hands down the best You Tube Slot page!!!! 

I have made a quick video that answers a few of these questions or at least on IGT machines.  I can't say for the other manufacturers. 
1. Stopping the reel animation does not change the outcome of the spin.
2.  Payout percentages are listed in some casinos and is up to the casino but not required.
3.  A machines yield is a specific percentage set by the manufacturer or by the casino as a percentage that the machine will pay back.  This is somewhat disputed however, I have found that these machines operate within a fairly specific range of +/- that yield %.
Based on the information above the machine if in a (+) of the programmed hold % then it will be "Hot" or "Loose" until the range is back in line with the overall hold %.  On the flip side of that, if the machine is (-) of the programmed Hold % then it will feel "Tight" or "Cold" until it recoups back in line with the programmed yield %. 
This is more impacted by the total bet played each spin rather than the total number of spins. So if a machine is -3% to the programmed yield and has a total accounting of 1m on the machine then it will essentially be "Loose" until the $30k or so has been paid back to the players.  That is also impacted by the selected denominations  hold  %.  There are not many casinos that will give you the specific hold % per denomination on a multi denominational machine for obvious reasons.  Some may have a better % at a lower denomination cough cough.  All of the machines that I have owned stay within a fairly narrow range +/- or the yield % for each denomination.
4.  The yield % can be set independently  for each denomination on a machine. 
5.  Soon the casinos will be able to set the Yield via network connectivity real-time without having to key chip the machine to unlock the yield settings.
6.  Given the above information this explains why new machines appear to pay out like crazy and then eventually tighten up. 
Watch my video I shot today to help explain this using an IGT I Cleopatra 2 using the latest Game King 044 board and flash game board.  This is what the majority of casinos have in them today.

Update:  After more testing it appears as though the higher the denomination, the larger the swing to +/- the machine yield.  This means larger wins and larger loss periods as it appears to open the volatility up incrementally with the denomination.  I don't know exactly the % of swing on either side however, I can say that it appears to be approximately 1.5% +/- @ .10 bet denomination.  So if we scale that up to $1 denomination, that would give us a 15% swing on the yield +/- , and  30% on a $2 denomination. 
So if the machine is sitting at the programmed 98.6% yield, this means it could swing in either direction up to 15% before it reverses it's trend assuming a $2 bet per line playing 300 lines or $600 a pull.  I think that is why you see the high limit players are either raking it in or hating life.  It really is luck as to if you are sitting at a machine that is at -15% or +15% to machine hold/yield.  Just no way to know without seeing the programmed percentage hold and the accounting screen.  So any how, just wanted to clear that up. 
 
I would relate slot machine play to playing the VXX in the stock market.  If you look into that you will find that it is a never ending decline that ultimately goes to zero.  However, if played (invested) in with good timing (luck), can yield you with a solid return but is not a good long term investment.  Meaning if you sit at the same machine long enough, you are guaranteed to loose 100% of your money. 
 
Cheers  & BOOOM!

Also for the game company we will be visiting while in Vegas its Ainsworth so any specific questions related to them please let us know.
 
Also Coach great idea for a the forum to ask.

I think Joe has asked my question in 2 different ways. In any case:
"Do they issue a Volatility Index that the casinos can custom order or do they directly set a particular game's volatility and they are ordered that way?"

Just wanted to let everyone know tonight the liveplay will begin at 7:30 Mst. It was brought to my attention that liveplay times, dates, as well as locations can be found on won.com; from the forum you can click return to won.com, then scroll down and there they are #Boom. I believe they are also available under the bombsquad. I just wanted to update this post and correct the start time. It will be between 7:30 and 8:00 MST. I was told more likely toward the later.
