The buttons from left to right say "Double Up," "Take Score," then "Big" directly above "Small," to the right of that, "Start" and "Bet." You put in dollars and each 5 cents = 1 credit. You can bet up to 64 credits at a time and it plays slots. Has anyone ever played one of these? Know how bad the house edge is? I think the double up feature of it may be rigged. It does the high-low with a card. I had an ace up 4 times and each of the 4 times, another ace popped up.

It more than likely has a HA that cannot be accurately calcualted and it is about as good a deal as a $3 hooker in AC.

Clearly, you lose.

I've seen machines that will do a true 50/50 after a play and win.
That sucks. Doesn't prove it's not random. But even if it was, it sucks. Leave it alone.
