Yes, DW and I have both had substantial wins on slot machines on cruise ships. All this info is readily available on the internet. It is the #1myth of slot machines that they can be changed by the casino. Machines are set at the factory at a win percentage requested by owner of the machine. If you played a few years ago there is no merit to the claim that you win more on the first night or any night. Could just be good luck and then bad luck.Ĭasino’s on ships follow the same rules as Nevada and there is a cruise association that they all belong to. Not saying that is what is happening, just that it is possible. Since you have to enter your sail and sign to play and there are no laws governing casino's at sea, they could easily be throttling someone with playing habits such as mine. Then it just dried up, slots have not done that for me in the last 3 cruises. It seemed to me like they were programmed to pay out on night one. Seems like in the last two years, I cannot win anything on the slots, but a few years ago, it was common place that on the first night of the cruise I would play for a few minutes, make $50 or so in my first few pulls and then I would take my winnings and walk, never returning to the casino that cruise.
