[QUOTE="Gary, post: 41994, member: 1889"]I just got back from Vegas three weeks ago and the casinos are going to the new ticket out payoffs more and more. There isn't even a slot to put coins in on some of the machines. The reason the casinos are doing this is to reduce overhead and employees. The machines don't run out of money or get jammed up with coins. They don't have to be refilled with coins. If you hit a jackpot on the new machines, you get a receipt that you take to a cashier and get your money. There are some casinos that have 50¢ machines but they are getting fewer all the time. The Riveria, Sahara and Excalibur have taken out their 50¢ machines within the last year. I don't know of any casino that has real dollar coins. They all use dollar tokens and have for years. Within a couple years, I expect about all the casinos will go coinless with their slot machines. You see more and more video slot machines with multi paylines where you can bet 40-45 credits on each spin. I don't like those machines but evidently people play them. It won't be long before the old three reel machines will be gone too. Have a good day, Gary[/QUOTE]
