May, 16, 2001 - The backroom poker game and the racetrack traditionally may have been an all-male bastion, but Karen H., of Los Angeles, can tell you that gambling addiction is an equal.
It does not matter which NPC you gamble with, or on which difficulty level you do your gambling. The odds are the same with all of them, and are determined entirely by your character's level. Nothing else matters: not the number of players in the game, or the difficulty level, or your magic find, etc. We know about prefixes and suffixes, how they apply on magic items and rare items. We know the odds of getting rare items, and other items like uniques. We know the odds on getting an elite item, and how the formula works. We know character lvl will affect the ilvl when gambling.

Diablo 2 Does Magic Find Affect Gambling
Administrator
However, it seems we have a different version of the ocean magic type slots. I can find both fu ru dong hai and dragonsphere, but on both machines the orbs never stay from play to play. Instead they appear randomly and go away again after each spin.
Does anyone know if this is due to WA law requiring machines to be lottery based? And does this mean that advantage slots are effectively illegal in WA?
What's interesting is that I have found Aladdin here too, and after 8 sessions (hanging around for multiple hours each session) of which 7 was very profitable, I'm having a hard time accepting that it was just pure luck so far, but I do understand my sample size is quite small.
Any thoughts?
I've seen the OM games in class II. Bubbles randomly appearing and disappearing. If there is a way to beat those, I don't know what it is.

Ocean Magic has just started appearing on UK based IGT machines under the same conditions you describe. The bubbles don't stay from one spin to the next, so there is no opportunity to vulture.TennisRatings
@Blackjacklad - do you AP slots in UK? Would be interested to have a chat - been doing it for 20 years.
@Wizard - thanks for posting the OM payout percentages by grid position, if you could do this for OM Grand as well that would be superb. Particular interest would be viability of low-ish spots on reel 4 when machine target % is reasonably high (e.g. 90%).

You're welcome. That is on my 'to do' list.
@TennisRatings. I'm in the UK. Get in touch. I'm an AP. Been so for 40 years
