Hi,this is my first post on this board but ive been reading it for about 1 month already. About people making living out of online poker.Well,i play online poker and i do make money out of it.I have made aprox 1500$ in 6 month for playing about 10 hr a week.I play online poker for fun and i dont want to make a living out of it.

An amazing amount of misinformation can be found on the Internet. Some of it is published by people who just don’t know any better. Some of it is published by people who are just interested in making a quick buck off the suckers out there.

Your goal is to know better and not be a sucker. Playing slot machines can be a perfectly legitimate way of spending your time in a casino. It’s a lot of fun, and casinos are all about entertainment.

But thinking that you’re going to win because of some goofy slot machine myths you found on the Internet is going to lead to disappointment, not fun. Understanding how the games actually work is the first step in dispelling those myths and becoming an educated player.

Understand this one point clearly from the beginning, and you’ll be way ahead of most of the so-called slots experts on the Internet: slot machine results are random. Your chances of winning at a slot machine game are random, and there’s nothing you can do to affect the outcome on any specific game.

Here are some specific myths we’ve seen touted on the Internet, along with an explanation of why each one is misinformation.

1. Some times of day are better than others. This isn’t true. Casinos aren’t able to reprogram the payout percentages on the games that easily or that quickly. You’ll also find sites that claim that some days of the week are better than others, or that the payouts improve during convention dates, or on special occasions. In any case, it’s not true. Time of day, day of the week, and special events in town are all irrelevant to your chances of winning.

2. Pulling the lever is more likely to generate a win than pushing the spin button. This might slow down your play a little bit, but it won’t increase your chances of winning. It might decrease the average amount you lose per hour, but the effect is negligible. Suppose you’re playing 400 spins per hour by pressing the button, but by using the lever instead, you’ve reduced that to 350 spins per hour. If you’re playing a really loose dollar machine with a payback percentage of 97%, you can expect (mathematically) to lose $12 per hour by pushing the button, but you’ll only lose (on average, mathematically), $10.50 per hour by pulling the lever. That’s not because you’ve changed the odds of winning, though—it’s because you’ve made fewer bets per hour.

3. Playing with your slots club card decreases your chances of winning. The theory is that the casinos want you to win less in order to recoup the perks and rebates that you receive from playing with the slot machine club. The reality is that the amount of money returned is negligible, and the casinos don’t mind paying it. The other reality is that the slot machine software doesn’t have a means to change its random number generator program based on whether or not the card is inserted.

4. Casino employees can help you find the loose slots. One piece of advice that I always thought was amusing was that you should ask one of the low-level employees at a casino where the loose games are, and that you should offer a share of your winnings to them in return for the information. Cocktail waitresses and bartenders don’t have any better idea about where the games with the best odds of winning are located than anyone else. Even if they did, Vegas slot machines are a negative expectation game, so you couldn’t make a living acting on that information anyway.

5. You can’t improve your chances of winning. This sounds diametrically opposed to all of the advice we’ve given elsewhere on this page, but it’s not. You can choose which types of slots games to play, and some types of slot machine games offer better odds than others. For example, a game with a fixed jackpot almost always offers a better chance of winning than a game with a progressive jackpot. Games with higher denominations almost always offer better odds than other games. And games with lots of video bonuses and extras usually pay out less than straightforward, plain-vanilla games. That’s because the bonus games on the video slots take more time than a simple spin of the reels, which means that players put less money into action per hour. The casino makes up for that by setting the payback percentage lower on such machines.

Also, one simple way of improving your chances of winning is to avoid the games at the airport. Those always have the lowest payout percentages.

6. The temperature of the coins matters. Most people don’t use coins anymore anyway, but even if they did, do you honestly think that a warm coin is going to improve your chances of winning? By the same token, you don’t improve your chances of winning by using coins instead of bills or vice-versa, either. The idea is ludicrous.

7. The length of time since the last jackpot matters. Some people think that a machine gets hot or cold, but the reality is that each spin of the reels is an independent event. Slot machines don’t become due for a win when they haven’t paid out in a long while, and they also don’t become hot and start paying out more. Every spin is like a single coin toss or a single roll of the dice—the outcome is independent of all the outcomes prior to it.

8. The location of the slot machine in the casino matters. Many of the $47 ebooks you’ll find on the Internet that claim to teach you how to win at slots claim that the loosest machines are set on the aisles of the slot banks because they’ll attract more players that way. That might have been true at one time in certain casinos, but it’s certainly not true in today’s casino market.

Slot machines can be fun, but if you buy into the above myths, they can lead to a lot of heartbreak and disappointment, too. Don’t be a sucker.

Hearts Rules

Snopes Veteran Wins Money Online Casinos

These are the rules I use for Hearts. There are many variations possible, but I use the basic ones from Wikipedia.

Snopes Veteran Wins Money Online Casino Game

1. The objective of Hearts is to get as few points as possible. Each heart gives one penalty point. There is also one special card, the Queen of spades, which gives 13 penalty points.
2. When the game starts you select 3 cards to pass to one of your opponents. Typically you want to pass your three worst cards to get rid of them. Which opponent you pass to varies, you start by passing to the opponent on your left, then in the next game you pass to the opponent on your right, third game you pass across the table and in the fourth game there is no card passing.
3. Each turn starts with one player playing a single card, also called leading. The suit of that card determines the suit of the trick. The other players then play one card each. If they have a card in the same suit as the first card then they must play that. If they don't then they can play one of their other cards. Once four cards have been played, the player who played the highest ranking card in the original suit takes the trick, i.e. he takes the four cards on the table and he then starts the next turn. Any penalty cards in the trick (hearts or queen of spades) are added to the players penalty score. So you want to avoid taking any tricks that have hearts or the queen of spades.
4. The player who has the two of clubs at the start of the game leads in the first hand, and he MUST lead with the two of clubs.
5. You cannot lead a trick with hearts, until hearts has been broken (played on another suit). So if it is your turn to lead and no heart has been played yet then you may not select a heart as the card to play first. In some variations of the game you can't play the queen of spades until hearts has been broken as well, but in this version you can always play the queen of spades and she doesn't break hearts.
6. In the very first round you may never play a heart or the queen of spades, not even if you don't have any card in the suit of the lead card.
7. Once all cards have been played the penalty points are counted and the player with the fewest points wins that hand. When one or more players reach 100 points or more then the entire game is finished, and the player with the least points win. If points are over 100 and there are two or more equal with the least points then play continues until there's only one winner.
8. Shooting the Moon! Generally it's bad to get penalty cards, but there is one extra twist! If you get ALL the penalty cards (13 hearts + Queen of spades) then you get 0 points and the other 3 players get 26 points each! This is called Shooting the Moon. Trying this can be a really risky move though, since if another player gets just one of the hearts you'll end up with a lot of points...

As of 21.02.2014 I've changed the game so the Queen of Spades no longer breaks hearts. I used to get complaints that it didn't, then when I changed it to make sure she did break then I got even more complaints about that. So, it looks like most people want the Queen of Spades to not break hearts, so that's the way it'll be from now on. Please do not write to me requesting that I change this again!

About Hearts

This online version of the classic card game Hearts was made by me. My name is Einar Egilsson and over there on the left is my current Facebook profile picture! Hearts is the third card game I've made, the other two are Shithead and Crazy Eights. I used to play Hearts a lot when I was younger, it was one of the games that came with every version of Windows. I wanted to be able to play Hearts online, and just didn't think all the hundreds of other versions of Hearts would do! Of the card games I've made, Hearts is probably my favorite. At least I play it a lot more than the others.

The game is made using html+JavaScript+css with jQuery used for the animations. All the graphics used for the game I found at OpenClipArt, a great site with free graphics. The excellent playing card images were made by Nicu Buculei, and the player images were made by Gerald G.

Any comments, questions, ideas for other games or anything else can be sent to admin@cardgames.io.

This is version 2385 of Hearts.
