Forget Poker Tournaments......look for SLOT TOURNAMENTS

[Fishhead]

In the last few years and even months, slot tournaments are now the new rage........AND MANY PRESENT THE ASTUTE GAMBLER WITH SOME GREAT OVERLAYS.

Many are even free to enter.

Be sure to check on these at your local casinos.

Last month in Biloxi I was able to make a few scores playing in these...........at the Island View and the Isle of Capri

[Fishhead]

I will be heading to Biloxi in the next 7-30 days......if anyone is headed there, let me know and perhaps we can meet up.

Yeah, they let every bum off the street enter for free.

Correct, many are free.

In addition, there are some that require a certain amount of play to be eligible, and obviously these offer higher payouts.

Some of these things pay the winner in excess of $100,000 in certain areas of the country.

What I was eluding to is 90% of these are based on your play for a free entry. Others are based on a fee you pay. What places will let any crack addict, two bit whore, or any other deadbeat who never plays in these tourneys? I'm not talking about a daily free spin on a slot to win a keychain or 1 mil. I'm sure they are out there but to say many of them are free is misleading. If you consider free getting an invite from the casino, that isn't free. It is based on your play.

[MonkeyF0cker]

Hmm. Unless you're playing video poker with 100+% theoretical return, I certainly wouldn't want to put the eligibility time in to qualify for a random chance tournament.

[jjgold]

Fishhead are there any online, I am interested. I have read the books you sent me.

[bluefish]

If you are a slot player and get an invite, why not play? It is just like getting the bingo invite. The 90 minutes you invest in this silly game is worth the laughs. Plus it breaks up things.

To the hardcore gamblers that win all the time I could see why it would be a waste. Everyone here besides me wins all the time, right?

[Fishhead]

I play +ev video poker to qualify.........or 99.55 jacks or better if no +ev is available.

JJGOLD--I don't know about online, but probably not.

Im talking land based, and these things are providing overlays in all parts of the country.

[sofos]

It makes sense that anything you can participate in for free is +EV. Of course you have to figure how much your time is worth to see if the +EV is enough for you. I suspect Fishhead has thought all that over carefully so it must be worth his time. Most likely most everybody's time too.

[onthewhat]

Fishhead if you ever come to any Indiana casinos let me know

I will pay for a training session

These things have value, sometimes big value. But, they're useful as an addition to other play just like comps and cashback.
I doubt there are many worthwhile ones you'd want to buy into. Certainly not a bad thing to keep in mind. You can play vp games well bellow 100% and still find value because of these things.

On the last three replies in this thread.........

[darys]

[Pecos Bill]

omg thread is hilarious..i love it.

[reno cool]

Played one recently at excaliber (free offer). 190 people. Top 150 guaranteed at least $100. I end up 152nd.

[jjgold]

It seems like they are pot luck, how the heck is there any skill to this?

[SlickFazzer]

i still do not understand how you can make money playing slots.

Slick......read the thread.

These slot "tournaments" are for the vast majority ALL OVERLAYS.

Look at Renos last past.

My friend just won $100,000 in one of these 'FREEROLLS' recently!!!

[PokerQ]

u have to be REAL lucky to win at slots.

[Big_Cheese]

Wait until right before the registration ends. Which is 5 min from the end on my site. Look at the amount of participants. If there are say 120 pay positions and there are only like 180 people registered, then all you have to do is register. Then spin the minimum amount of times to become ranked. Then stop. You win $$$. Here is why more than 75% of the players play all their money all the way to $0. this should put you somewhere around 40th position. If it was $3.oo to get in 40th probably pays about $12 only because of the small pot. Even though I used a small money tournament as an example. It is still profittable and face it this is what we are looking for...

THIS IS GOOD INFO... Patience is paramount

[pokerdog283]

Any PA, DE or Maryland area players Deleware Park and Dover Downs offer slot tournaments quite often!!

[donthalfstep]
