Scobe's Quick Tip #14:
On three-coin buy-a-pay slot machines, that is, machines that reward you
with extra payline combinations for extra coins, it is always best to
either play one coin or full coin.
Studies by John Robison have shown that playing two coins is the very
worst way to play the machines as you are increasing your risk but not
substantially increasing your possibility to win.

Scobe's Quick Tip #15:
It is always a bad idea to place a jackpot side bet at games such as Let
it Ride and Caribbean Stud as the casino usually has a double-digit edge
on these bets.
The only time Caribbean Stud is worth attempting is when the jackpot
reaches over $300,000 -- which has happened in the last ten years about
as often as full eclipses of the sun. That little dollar sidebet can add
up to a lot of money over the long run -- money lost.
