casino question

[wags111]

we are not big gamblers but would like to go into the casino. what is the smallest slot they have? pennies or nickels?

[funcruzck1]

every cruise I have been on has had penny slots and nickles. good luck!

Thay might have 2 cent ones as well.

 

After 5 cents it jumps to a quarter.

 

But be careful, most of the 1, 2 & 5 cent slots require a 9 coin minimum and you can play up to 10 times the original bet so it can get expensive fast even on a penny machine.

I completely agree, 1,2, & 5 cent slots can get really expensive. At first thought you thinks 1 cent is nothing but you can go thru $20 fast....

heneput and French_Fry are absolutely right. The 1 cent, 2 cent and 5 cent machines can add up real quickly if you don't know how to play them. I know that from experience. On the 25 cent machines, the max you can bet [progressive jackpot] is 75 cents [ 3 coins ] and I think I've seen a few 2 coins [50 cent machines] on Ecstasy. Good luck. I hope you break the bank :D

On the Valor the smallest amount were the 2 cent slots.

not sure if they work the same as in Vegas but, I THINK, the lower the money amount the high the house take. Meaning if the house gets 9% on a dollar bet slot machine it will get a higher % on 25 cent slots maybe 13% Seen this on tv

Just wondering........ Do the slot machines take real coins or tokens?

[megansdad1]

They do take coins and dollars. Although .01 machines dont take pennies. They may take quarters and give you 25 credits.

[kstravelers]

Thanks, I was just wondering if I should be saving up my quarters. It seems like so many casinos only take tokens or paper money and no longer take real coins.

[wags111]

thanks for answering. i was getting ready to gather all my pennies up.

[megansdad1]

Usually if I am saving up my change, I just exchange them at the bank before I leave. I would hate to be carrying all those quarters with me.
