But they would also have to play a lot of the smoking area machines, keeping notes on those as well, in order to make a valid comparison. In fact, the only players that would notice are that casino's extreme regulars, IF they keep meticulous, long-term notes on each machine they play. But factor in the amount of cash AND credits the average player runs through and it's significant to the casino. I doubt N/S vs S is more than a 1 or 2% difference. The casino is willing to take a little less profit on each machine, but they're also getting more players, so their total profit goes up. They would be forced to lower the hold a bit to get players to play, and stay a little longer(because they are winning a bit more). Many players assume it's crowded because players were winning.Īs with most statistical analysis, study the opposite situation in which you have a casino with hundreds of machines and not enough players. More folks wanting to play a limited total number of machines makes the price(casino hold) go up. Ever notice how busy it is in there? It's a supply and demand thing. Maybe they just like the sounds and theme. Maybe they got a big hit on it, years ago.

Therefore, once they finally get on that machine, they will not want to give it up soon. Therefore, they are likely to player longer in the N/S section, especially if it's crowded, and they had to play other machines awhile before getting the machine they wanted. They can't or won't play in the smoking sections. Jo G: Think of the non-smokers as a captive audience.
