  1. Avoid the slot machines. They can be very addictive and are for suckers. All you have to do is look and see how much of the casino's floor space is dedicated to slots as opposed to other games.. If it weren't for the porfits form the slots the casinos would have to close their doors. That's a fact.


  2. Checkout this website http://www.123world.com/atlantic-city to checkout each hotel.

  3. AVOID SLOT ALL TOGETHER WORST ODDS IN THE CASINO>

  4. The most important thing, imho, is that there are telltale signs that you are suceptible to gambling addiction. try a few pulls, and if any of these signs occur, get away from gambling and stay away before you get hooked:

    1. When you lose, you get angry, feel "wronged" somehow, and want revenge on the machine/game that wronged you. Usually, you'll be thinking something along the lines of "I'll show YOU!"

    2. When you win, all you can think about is how much more you need to win to break even. In other words, winning brings only momentary joy or none at all.

    3. You feel victimized and angry at some invisible entity that is somehow cheating and/or tricking you, e.g. the casino must be rigging the slots, the dealer must be dealing the cards in a set order, the roller must be a casino employee, etc. In other words, you blame something else besides yourself for losing.

    4. Even though you are exhausted, starving, etc. you feel like your chance to win is right within reach and you need to stay at the table or game. In other words, your psychological need to keep playing cannot be interrupted by your body's needs.

    Conversely, if you have theopposite of these, you are in good shape:

    1. You don't take losing personally, and you can see objectively why you lost.

    2. When you win, you are happy and you can quit right then and there.

    3. If you are playing a new game and losing, you fully realize that you need to become a better player before trying again.

    4. You can easily take breaks, and breaks are not interrupted by a need to return to the games. Or, you can get a good night's sleep without waking up or staying awake.

  5. Go to Atlantic City and have a great time. Try video poker the odds are better. GOOD LUCK!!!!
