I've worked in the casino/gaming industry for around 7 years now and the best advice I've given people was just not to play, especially the slots. You'll always win if you don't play at all. And if by chance you DO win, gtfo out of there because you'll lose that too if you put it back in the machine. I remember meeting a woman on NYE who won 31k. She played it back the same night and lost all of it. 😒

@duanebailey6253 3 ай бұрын

One of the only ways to play is as soon as the machine hits walk away. They are designed to pull you in with an early win. Mostly small but it normally hits within a few spins if not move on.

@Fade2BlackSS 3 ай бұрын

@@duanebailey6253 This is very true. I install and configure machines currently. There is some truth to them hitting more frequently when they're first installed but that still doesn't mean you're going to walk out with too much. I don't know all the details but basically it's some kind of random number generator that constantly resets every time it hits. I believe the more it hits, the tighter it gets. That's not confirmed but that's what it seems like. Contrary to belief though, depending on where you are the state dictates the win percentage. And this percentage is set up during the install. So when people say, "you've tightened up the machines" and not entirely true. I mean, I'm sure it does happen but not as often as people believe. It's not a quick process and involves companies to literally have to re-configure each and every machine that's already set. I had a guy calling our company because he thought something was wrong due to customers hitting the jackpot so often after an install. Here in the Illinois bar market, the jackpot can't go any higher than $1199 for a single payout without needing to be taxed. So they guy was complaining for having to do so many handpays. Lol. But that stopped after a month or so.

The AutoTempest ad should be picked up and put on TV… if TV is still a thing. Awesome! My DSM experience: bought a ‘91 Eagle Talon TSI (Eclipse GSX) in 1997. Had 80k; timing belt looked original; replacement interval was 60k. Immediately had it replaced. Lasted 16k miles. Warranty was 10k. Every piston met every valve. Cost $2k to repair. I had bought the car for $4k. Ultimately sold it with 128k on it for the same $4k I’d spent on it.

I really love this roadtrip series, but I can't help but wonder why Ben's got it so rough with the RX8... mine was never that thirsty, I was able to average 20-22 MPG's on the highway easy, going 80MPH, and The coolant is probably leaking, not burning... I don't see enough white smoke to think he's burning it 🤷‍♂

@NateRist 3 ай бұрын

The stigmas the RX-8 has are all from the series 1 RX-8s. The Series 2 saw improvements in every area mechanically. The 6 speed transmissions in the series 1 are indeed very weak, but that is because the 6 speed from the NB Miata was used in those cars and are meant to be used with a motor that makes 100hp less than an RX-8’s renesis 13B. The series 2 6 speed transmission is a completely different trans and arguably Mazda’s strongest mass production transmission. They don’t break and very rarely have issues.

Try all this breaking regularly: Centre console lid latch Sun visor Central locking Window button Cat Leaking tail lights Coolant sensor O2 sensor Secondary air pump Airbag cover Driver seat button Clutch pedal support Leaking tail lights Coils, leads, plugs after 20k miles Ssv Probably more, I forget everything. I just drive mine around with check engine light on permanently and 50% of the time with the traction control light on

@nolo2484 I don't know what kind of baller rotary friends you have, but I got my first rotary 22 years ago and have never left the rotary world, and know very few people who have actual issues with their engines. The ones that do are pushing high horsepower or just had a bad builder build their engine. Having said that, I was a professional rotary engine builder for awhile. It's not hard to find someone who says they can work on rotaries, but couldn't tell the difference between a Phillips and flathead screw driver.

@NateRist 3 ай бұрын

The RX-8’s engine isn’t burning coolant. It’s spitting it out of the overflow tank. You should see it dripping out from the radiator area because that’s where it spits it out. Refill the overflow tank and be on your way.
