Ask The Slot Expert

6 March 2003

Do you know where I can buy The Price is Right - Plinko and Cliffhanger that I can play on my PC? I have been looking for them.

Tami

Dear Tami,

I did a bit of searching and I couldn't find a CD that has these slots on it. IGT does have a CD that contains many of their slot machines, but all of the machines are their own concepts. None of the games contain licensed property, such as The Price Is Right.

Bally has two CDs of their slot machines available too. Unlike the disc of IGT games, these discs contain licensed material, such as Betty Boop, Blondie, and Popeye.

The discs run from $10 to $20. You can purchase them from Amazon.com.

Best of luck in and out of the casinos,
John

How good are your chances in Foxwoods? Best slot machines to play?

I am not a high roller, just an ordinary senior who likes to play quarter and 50-cent slots.

Thank you so much

The paybacks on the machines at Foxwoods aren't good as those in the locals casinos in Las Vegas, but they are better than those in many other areas.

Most slot managers order pretty much the same payback percentage for all of their machines in a particular denomination. The best machines to play are the ones you enjoy playing.

Get a slot club card if you don't already have one and use it every time to play to make sure you get your fair share of the freebies.

Best of luck in and out of the casinos,
John
