Sure Fire +EV Bet At The Casino
 
Penny or nickle slots played slowly with 1 bet and 1 line at a time. $.20-$1.50 per hour = 6 free drinks. you can recheck my math but it's pretty spot on.

Good luck getting cocktail waitress to pass by nickel slots six times in an hour.

give her a buck and tell her to be back in five minutes and she will be back in four. so add a buck per drink.

I killed the penny slots in Vegas last week. If only I'd run that good in the WSOP...

I had a buddy from college who was notoriously tight. He would get $10 worth of quarters (LOL, back when machines took quarters) and put them in a bucket. When the waitress walked by, he would put one coin in, pull the handle, and order a drink. When she came back with the drink, he would put another quarter in the slot. Tip: $0.50

So his drink cost $1.00 if he didn't get anything back on his two slot pulls. While the rest of us were blowing our bankrolls, he would just hang out waiting for $1 drinks.

OT, but my slot play has gone way down since they stopped taking quarters. The fake quarters coming out sounds they play when you win do nothing to simulate the real thing.

My first time gambling down AC, I won 40 bucks at the slots and kept the bucket full of quarters and took it home with me.

I've seen worse. Like a guy sweating (or pretending to) a friend at the poker table and asking the player to order drinks for him. He would even get the guy to beg the waitress for two drinks at a time. He was gone seconds after the drinks arrived.

Beat this: My girlfriend's brother sits down at a penny slot, plays one penny a spin, and when he hits for any amount at all, be it 1 penny or 5, he gets up and moves to a different slot machine. Every. Single. Time. After all, that machine just hit and won't be due again for so long.

Later, my girlfriend is tired and sits down to donk off some change at video poker at .25 cents a hand. Penny Wizard comes up behind her and wide eyed as though he can't believe the amount of gambooool that would take says, "That's a quarter!"

I can only imagine the heart attack he would have if he had to post the big blind in a 1/2 game.
