Gayle Mitchell

Gayle Mitchell, one of the first women to break through the “felt ceiling” of the previously male-dominated world of casino gambling gurus, is now regarded as one of North America’s leading experts on casino gambling.

Gayle’s commitment to educating the gambling public began almost 20 years ago, when she walked into a Las Vegas casino and experienced for the first time the thrill that comes with winning even a small bet. She made up her mind then and there to learn every game in the casino, and a short time later resolved to make a career out of sharing her insights with other gamblers. She had always considered herself to be a good teacher – she believes in keeping things simple – and decided that she would commit herself to showing newbies how to become knowledgeable, intelligent gamblers.

Gayle started her own publishing company, and her first book came out in 1997. Today she is the author of seven books, seven EBooks, and a set of five Tips booklets, and has presented many seminars on casino gambling. Currently she teaches Learn to Win Programs with other leading experts at GamblingTeachers.com. The site is a player-friendly Free Gambling Learning Center offering 300+ online lessons for popular casino games plus Gambling Teachers Blog. Gayle also operates www.gamerisms.com, which is a games glossary site for sport, casino, skill and video game players.

“It’s a fact that less than 2 percent of casino players know the profitable, correct strategies and/or rules for most casino games,” Gayle says. “Our group of career teachers and writers are working to improve that statistic.”

Bonus Slots Update: Diamond Blazing 7's, Run for Your Money Deluxe, RWB Racing 7's, Silver Moon, Hot, Hot, Hot, Gopher Cash

1 October 2001

By Gayle Mitchell

2001 has arrived, my Fellow Slot Players. Along with a minted new year, let's bring on some minted bonus slots for you to explore in 'minted surroundings', otherwise known as the casino.

1) Diamond Blazing 7's: As with other Blazing 7's, there is a multitude of 7 combos activated by the second coin. With 3 coin versions, you get higher top jackpots, but try the 2 coin to stretch your bankroll. There are six possible jackpot combos paying 100 coins+. Three Blazing 7's=top jackpot. Although there are no wild symbols, there are lots of 'fired up' 7's in win combinations.

2) Run for Your Money Deluxe: Start with five times play, wild symbol, multiplying jackpots of 5X or 25X and there's more. Top bonus wheel=circles of cash-back numbers and a pointer getting larger with each inner ring toward the middle 1000 coins. Third reel sporting the 'Coin Man' takes you to this 'inner circle' of $$ treats. Remember to watch for 'Deluxe' versions of any bonus slot for bigger pays.

3) RWB Racing 7's: Based on the basic Red, White and Blue 7's but with higher hits. Bonus screen shows one red, one white and one blue 7 corresponding to each reel; then every 7 landing on that particular reel moves that selected 7 closer to the finish line. When total of 30 spaces is completed, a winner is determined and bonus amount added. Revvving to go with this slot!

4) Silver Moon: Nine-line, wild and free game mode are featured. As named, the Silver Moon is wild and scatter pay of dolphins can allow for as many as ten free games with triple jackpots. All play is under the light of the Silver Moon. Beam me down some jackpots!

5) Hot, Hot, Hot: Shades of the Caribbean with the familiar song and an Island paradise luring you with 'pearl', 'starfish' and 'seahorse' symbols. Select your spin button from the first, third and fifth reels, for when a pearl appears on the reel chosen, it activates the diver swimming after your precious bonus win. Treasure chest bonus amounts are awarded as you make your selection in another bonus event. Three starfish trigger three divers who race for extra bucks and keep you hummin' Hot, Hot, Hot -- yeah!

6) Gopher Cash: This is a golfer's dream slot, 'fore' when a 'score card' symbol appears on the third reel, you multiply your win by 2X, 3X or 5X. Next round--the 'gopher' symbol on the first and fifth reel tees you up for the Gopher Cash Bonus Round. Nine golf balls with a frog and eight bonus amounts appear. If you pick the frog first, you move down the green to the Double Pay Bonus round; pick the same again on the first try, and you've just scored a Quadruple pay and a 'hole-in-one' style win.
