A new casino is coming to my home town but without any tables.... :( Just a racetrack and slots. I want to know:
Are the 'GameMakers' set up to make you loose? These are machines that have BlackJack and Keno and Pick'em Poker and stuff on them. Is playing blackjack on one of these a stupid idea? Or is it the same as playing at a table?
With $5 one time I made it up to $30. But I would like to know if that was just a fluke/luck or if these things have real odds/randomness.

Thanks. I know that every game is luck/chance.....or it wouldn't exisist. What I'm asking is if these machines are worse than playing at a table or not. But I suppose that they would have to be on the level or it'd be illegal.

The Blackjack video games are programed to use random drawing from a standard deck, reshuffled after every hand. If the payout for a blackjack is 3 to 2, you are getting the exact same odds and chance of winning as at a casino (assuming you are not a proficient card counter). Some of them only pay 6 to 5 on blackjacks, and do not permit doubling after splitting, so your chances are somewhat worse.
Keno is the worse game in a casino; cannot imagine a machine could treat you worse.

any gambling is mostly chance. How can you tell where that little ball is going to land in roulette. Also, from what I have found out casino's are watched constantly for cheating. If it is state regulated it should be honest
