Choosing a Game With the Right Risk Level
For some people, signing up for a new cable TV package feels risky. For others, the adrenaline doesn’t start pumping until they’re bungee jumping naked over crocodile-infested waters. Risk is something we all have a very different and unique relationship with. And when you’re choosing the right casino game to play, it’s good to find [...]
Prince of Sherwood – Game Review
The Prince of Sherwood online slot machine is, as the name implies, all about the legend of Robin Hood. Despite being famous for stealing from the rich to give to the poor, I can’t be the only one suspicious of that particular part of the legend. My thinking is that he stole from the rich [...]
Why Should I Gamble Today? Here’s 5 Reasons
If you’re like me, you don’t really need an excuse to gamble. But just in case, here’s 5 very good reasons that, if you’re not already playing some games right now, you should start. 1) You found a lucky penny.

Celebrity Predictions for 2009
With 2008 soon coming to a close, we’re on the eve of a new year of exciting celebrity gossip. It’s bound to be better than this last year’s snooze-fest – Britney got better, Lindsay settled down and Amy Winehouse somehow didn’t OD. Because I read entirely too much TMZ I think I have a pretty [...]
Triple 7 Inferno – Game Review
The first time I ever saw a real slot-machine was at Harrah’s at Lake Tahoe. I was 17 years old (don’t try this at home kids) and I was there with my parents. Because I was the gambling equivalent of jail-bait, my parents did the responsible thing – they said “go ahead and play, but [...]
Top 10 Ways to Pick Roulette Numbers
Roulette is a fun and exciting game that is notable for taking absolutely zero skill. You could close your eyes and randomly throw chips onto the table from across the room and still be playing right. That’s actually what I do, and if the chip happens to hit the dealer I just tell her it’s [...]
Outta This World – Online Slot Game Review
So apparently we’re all supposed to get excited at the possibility there may be water on Mars. Because that means that maybe the 4th rock from the Sun might potentially have been home to a primitive form of bacteria or something a billion or two years ago. Excuse me for not doing cartwheels, but if [...]
Famous Gambling Superstitions
By nature, we gamblers are a superstitious lot. After all, if you’re relying on good fortune for fun and profit it can never hurt to have a lucky charm or two on your side. And don’t feel bad – it’s been proven that rabbits can live long and fulfilling lives with only three legs.
Preparing for a trip to Vegas
There’s one great thing about this whole looming global recession thing – super cheap trips to Las Vegas. You can get there for about fifteen bucks, so I hope you’ve already booked your trip. If you have, you should prepare a little before you go. How? You can learn some new table games. You don’t [...]
A Britney Spears Slot Machine?
Okay, yes Britney Spears is enjoying a pretty good comeback. She’s trim, she has a hit song and she’s doing a much better job of keeping her craziest behavior at home and out of the barber shop. But I still think the time has come for her to leverage her fast-departing youth and beauty to [...]
Holiday Casino Action vs. BCS Bowl Season
Like all true red-blooded American males, I like football. OK, ladies, I can already see you rolling your eyes, but give me a second. Football is first and foremost in my heart, except when we’re talking about the Holiday season. Sure I’ll watch football until I’m blue in the face, but it’s kind of hard [...]
