Slot Clubs Myths

Slot Club Myths

There are absolutely no reasons not to join the slot club and use the card at every opportunity. There are some myths, however that people use for not joining the club and receiving the benefits.

Slot Club Myth #1--Using the slot card affects the outcome of the slot pull.

This is absolutely, positively false. It ranks right up there with the old wive's tale that the casinos flip a switch to lower the slot machine payouts on weekends. The RNG on the slot machine (which determines the result of a pull) is totally separate from the slot club computer. Inserting your slot club card has no affect on the outcome.

Slot Club Myth #2--The government, or the casino, can keep track of my play.

This is true but, believe it or not, this fact actually works to your benefit in both cases. You want the casino to track your play. That is how you rack up points towards your comps. As for the government, if you hit a big jackpot, the IRS will be there for their cut. You might want to retrieve a record of your losses to offset the tax bite.

Slot Club Myth #3--I will go on a mailing list.

Absolutely correct, you want to go on a mailing list. How else can the casino send you deals for reduced rooms and notify you of special events?

Slot Club Myth #4--I am afraid of losing my card. Somebody else might use it.

Don't worry about it, they will give you another one, as many as you want. The only thing someone else can do with your slot card is insert it in a machine and rack up more points for you. This is a good thing.
