My thoughts --- you are playing against a computer, and the computer knows your hand. Now, how is that fair?

What do you think the "real slots" are??? They are a computer also! So is the lottery! Sounds like "someone" has the upper hand??

Slot machines are the biggest money maker for the house. That's why when you go to a casino it's over 75% slot machines.

I hate this "WAIT AND SEE" ethic that MANY doctor's have! That visit cost me about $500 with a $150 DEPOSIT! Then if I would have "followed doctor's orders", I would have had to spend another $30 on my prescription, which isn't too bad, but it's MORE MONEY! And what did I get out of my ER visit? A shove back home with some pills that made me sicker than I was! Thank the Lord I got into my regular doctor the next week. Oh and some info for any pregnant women out there (in Dodge City), DON'T go to the ER for care after 20 weeks along! Even Madson told me that they are too scared to take care of pregnant women there! They just look you over and say..."hmmm....I don't think there's anything I can do here". Make sure you go to the Women's Center for ANY care after that time. There you will get the FULL treatment you need. Oh and some Dr. Kapur (the one who sent me to the ER)(he's a resident) was on call for FPA (Family Practice Associates). HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL HE IS DOING! He prescribed me an antibiotic that isn't normally considered safe for pregnancy and Madson couldn't say enough about how much he DOESN'T know! Watch out for him!! As for me, I have a huge a$$ hospital bill now, with NO HELP to show for it. I guess I'll feed some gasoline into those ER doctors' convertibles.

I read this am I am like OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hydrocodone?????????? To a pregnant woman??????? WTF!!!!!You have got to be ****ing kidding me. I see what this crap can do to people. Man people watch a doctor that is so quick to give this shit to you. If you only knew and I wish I could tell you.

Hydrocodone was my drug of choice during my last back episode that ended in surgery. Got me through a lot of days. Then, when I complained they weren't working anymore, the doc threw me a curve and doubled it! I was laid flat out for a couple of days - just zoned. That is serious stuff to most people. I, too, would think twice about taking it if I were pregnant. If it does that to me, what is it doin' to the baby? Maybe they gave you a smaller dose...

It doesn't matter what the "reels" say when they stop. The entire sequence is controlled by a computer. If the computer says "pay out", then the machine pays. The newer video type slots are totally computerized. Players must realize that it is "entertainment". And I must admit, some of the newer interactive machines are fun to play.

Narcotics mask the pain, they do not cure it. Of course, when needed they do work. However, the problem long term is that they become less and less effective leading to increased dosage to get relief. It is a never ending circle.

Right...it's all entertainment. But the slots are set to payout a certain percentage.
