lot manufacturer and casino financial solutions provider Everi, is kick-

ing off their annual TournEvent of Champions The Million Dollar Event slot

tournament this month across North America. Talking Stick Resort in

Scottsdale, Arizona will be one of the casinos in the state hosting this major

event. If you want other casinos to be part of the TournEvent, make sure you

tell a slot department or a players club employee. The more casinos hosting the

event, the more chances us players have to qualify for the final in Las Vegas

held this October! Having participated in numerous slot tournaments on

Everi’s games, and in the TournEvent myself, I can tell you how fun and excit-

ing the tournament is. Everi’s slot tournament game gives players real time

updates via a massive leaderboard on video monitors above the bank, live

video of the competing players, and a way to earn more points with bonus

icons on screen by touching the images which then reveal an extra credit prize.

These games are a far cry from the mechanical three reel, one pay line slot

tournament machines of the past. So, go sign up for the Tournevent of Champi-

ons at Talking Stick Resort and then head out to all the other casinos in Arizona

and tell them you’d like to sign up there too!

EVERI’S TOURNEVENT The Million Dollar Event Slot Tourney

PLAYERS TALK

Q: I am retired and enjoy going to the casino two or three

times a month. I start at Keno. I play 20 games with the same

six numbers for $1 per game. I play a lot of Video Poker at

$2.50 a game. I have had very good luck at times. Video Keno

seems to be always busy. I would like to know if the amount

of numbers you play changes the outcome. For example, five

numbers versus ten numbers. Thank you!

Roger O’Connor – Phoenix, Arizona

A: We love Video Keno as much as you do Roger! Why? Be-

cause, like Video Poker, all the math for the outcomes when

combined with the pay table available in the help screen tell you

exactly what the return to player percentage of the game is. At

least you know the house hold you are playing against! With

the slots, it can be anyone’s guess!

In any event, the first table of probabilities (pg. 8, expressed as

percentages) based on spots played will be of extreme useful-

ness for any Video Keno fanatic. This table helps a Video Keno

player determine how frequently they will experience certain

wins over the long run (i.e. millions of spins on a Video Keno

machine). For example, in the first table, playing six spots, the

probability of hitting four spots (as a percentage) is 2.85 on aver-

age over the long run. Playing seven spots, the probability of

hitting four spots (as a percentage) is about 5.22. Playing four

spots, the probability of hitting all four spots is about 0.31.

That’s low! Less than a third of one percent chance!

The bottom row of the first table (labeled Total Probability (%) Of

Wins) identifies the total probability, as a percentage, of all wins

for each column based on typical Video Keno pay tables as

listed in the last table. This row helps players identify which

selection of spots has the lowest and highest probability of

hitting winners, on average, over the long run.

The second table indicates what the pulls to hit, or number of

spins, for spots are based on total spots selected. For example, in

the second table, playing six spots, you can expect to hit four

spots once in every 35.04 games on average over the long run.

Playing seven spots, you’ll hit four spots once every 19.16

games on average over the long run. Playing four spots, you’ll

hit all four spots once in every 326.44 games on average over the

long run. You can use the table to better identify which selection

of spots you’d like to play based on how often they occur.

Of course, the tables provide a limited amount of insight until

you associate wins and the amounts of the wins onto each set of

spots. Essentially, we need a pay table and Video Keno has two

types. The first kind pays players for not hitting any of the num-

bers and the second pays only when players hit numbers.

Personally, pay tables where players are paid for not hitting

their spots suck. In our opinion, they are no fun to play. And,

you can really feel it when you play such pay tables. You are

constantly winning a low amount of money. Plus, you are no

(Continued on page 8)

PLAYERS TALK

longer playing a pay table with a return to player (RTP) percent-

age that is in the nineties. Now the return to player percentage

is in the eighties. That means the casino is holding more money!

But regardless of personal preference, the last two tables split

out the Pulls to Hit for winners only, along with the combined

Pulls to Hit for all wins in the bottom row, based on the Hit 0

pay (labeled Pay Table “0”) and not having a Hit 0 pay (labeled

Pay Table “1”).

(Continued from page 6)

And, our Video Keno advice to you is to not switch spots! Pick

your spots and stick with those numbers. Don’t make a change,

as you’ll always be frustrated by hits on spots you just removed.

Less aggravation is always a good thing!

Please note the tables below have green cells (spots players are

paid for) and red cells (spots players are not paid for) for the

standard pay table as listed in the last table (Pay Table “1”).

Good luck with your Video Keno play sessions Roger! $

have to tread softly when an over-card comes on the flop and

you get a call. When you flop top pair, it’s your kicker that’s

important. Don’t expect to win with King-Ten very often, but

Ace-King or King-Queen on a flop with a King is strong. Bet

those hands!

And, you can take some chances on nut-flush, and nut-straight

(nut means the best) draws for reasonable bet amounts, even

against just one player because you can get paid off well on the

river!

Other than that, don’t call for all your chips to draw to a straight

or flush unless you are getting good odds from the money in the

pot compared to how much it is to call—more than 2-1 on the

flop and 5-1 on the turn. Don’t call to draw if there’s a pair

onboard.

On the flip side, bet more than 1/2 the pot when there is a flush

or straight draw to keep others from calling cheaply. $

he game Texas Hold ’Em is hot but thinking that limit

and no-limit games are the same is not. Games with a

limit on wagers are more forgiving because you can

skate around, make some mistakes, and perhaps still come out

ahead for the evening. Make a single mistake at no-limit, and

you’re busted!

Rules for Limit Games

In limit games, you can bluff all you want, but you can’t win

very often doing it. You’ll have to show-down the best hand

almost all the time. That means you’ll want to start with the best

hands like top pairs and aces and faces. Especially if you’re un-

der the gun.

If you’ve got weaker hands like Jack-Ten or 8-9 suited, it’s less

profitable to call early, but you can certainly limp-in with them

from closer to the button since there’s less chance of getting

raised. If you’ve got a big pair or Ace-King, they are always

worth a raise or even a re-raise. Narrow the field and get some

money in the pot.

You can keep betting your pocket Aces or Kings no matter what

flops. A scary board like 9-T-Q might slow you down, but don’t

let anyone draw to a straight or flush cheaply. If you flop a set,

put in a raise or re-raise, even with that flop, for the same rea-

son. It’s going to hit a lot of hands, and they’ll pay to draw, so

make’em. If they hit a flush or straight that’s a bummer, but you

can take down a big pot if you make a full house!

Other than that, don’t try to make a straight or a flush heads-up.

Those are drawing hands, and you want at least two callers to

make it profitable. And, don’t draw to a straight with two cards

of the same suit on the flush. One of your outs will put a possi-

ble flush out there. Wait for a better opportunity.

Rules for No-Limit Games

No-limit is all about risk versus reward. You don’t ever want to

be wrong about having the best hand but, paradoxically, you

can limp-in with weaker starting hands because you can dump

them on the flop or get paid handsomely if you make a big

You’ll want to get a raise in preflop with top pairs, and you’ll

Self-Proclaimed “Godfather” Of

AZ Mixed Martial Arts Charged

On Numerous Criminal Offenses

The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office filed charges in justice

court against Mr. Roland Sarria and Mr. Todd Whitmoyer for

suspected involvement in unsanctioned combat sporting

events in Maricopa County. Charges arose from an Arizona

Department of Gaming (ADG) investigation into the activities

of both defendants who reside in Maricopa County.

Each subject faces four, class 2 misdemeanors for failing to

procure a license and failing to provide a physician for un-

sanctioned events that occurred on September 15, 2018, in

Phoenix, and another event on September 29, 2018, in Glen-

dale. Additional charges could be forthcoming. In Arizona,

class 2 misdemeanors can carry a maximum fine of $750 and

four months jail time, per violation. In some instances, courts

may assess a maximum fine of $10,000, per violation.

“It’s our duty to protect the integrity of these sports, the un-

armed combatants and the public,” said ADG Director Ted

Vogt. “We do this by ensuring that individuals engaged in

unsanctioned unarmed combat events are held accountable in

a court of law.” “Unarmed combat sports are highly regulated

competitions that require careful oversight to ensure the safe-

ty of the combatants and the spectating public, as well as a

fair competition and impartial result,” said Francisco Menes-

es, Jr., Executive Director, AZ Boxing & MMA Commission.

“Unsanctioned events pose a physical danger to fighters and

the public alike and compromise the integrity of combat

sports.”

ADG takes tips about unsanctioned events involving un-

armed combat sports events very seriously. If you have a tip,

or just need information, please call 1.602.364.1721. $

All defendants are presumed innocent until convicted in a court of law.

4NR—A Tribute To Foreigner Mazatzal Hotel & Casino

July 26

On Friday, July 26, 2019, Mazatzal welcomes 4NR a tribute to

Foreigner. With ten multi-platinum albums and sixteen Top 30

hits, Foreigner is universally hailed as one of the most popular

rock acts in the world with a formidable musical arsenal that

continues to propel sold-out tours and album sales, now ex-

ceeding 75 million.

Responsible for some of rock and roll’s most enduring an-

thems including “Juke Box Hero,” “Cold As Ice,” “Hot Blood-

ed,” “Waiting For A Girl Like You,” “Feels Like The First

Time,” “Urgent,” “Head Games,” “Say You Will,” “Dirty

White Boy,” “Long, Long Way From Home” and the world-

wide #1 hit, “I Want To Know What Love Is,” Foreigner also

features strongly in every category in Billboard’s Greatest of

All Time listing.

4NR is an upper-echelon tribute of the highest caliber. Com-

prised of experienced, world-class touring and recording/

session musicians from Los Angeles, Boston, New York and

Great Britain. Their explosive show is matched by their uncan-

ny ability to replicate Foreigner's powerful repertoire. In 2014

the band performed on AXSTV "World's Greatest Tribute

Bands" in front of an estimated 1 million viewers and stunned

the audience with the near perfect replication of the Foreigner

sound. 4NR plays all the hits - from Foreigner's late-70s FM

Radio-hits - all the way up to their MTV Top 10's of the 80s as

well as some "deep-cuts", for the die-hard fans.

A 4NR show will have you on your feet from the first note to

the last leaving you with a feeling of not just another tribute

show, but a 4NR experience!

Tickets are $15 in advance, $20 the day of the event, and are

available online at MazatzalCasino.com or at the cashier cage.

The doors open at 6:30pm. The show starts at 7:00pm. 4NR,

The Mavericks & Los Lobos Harrah’s Ak-Chin Casino

July 5

Harrah’s Ak-Chin Casino will welcome The Mavericks and

Los Lobos to The Events Center stage July 5, 2019. Doors 7pm,

Show 8pm. Tickets start at $34.50 and are on sale now through

all Ticketmaster outlets. The Events Center, which opened in

early 2019, seats 2,000 people and is part of a multi-million

dollar renovation.

The Mavericks’ genre-defying music has been connecting with

fans for the last three decades, with hits such as “What A Cry-

ing Shame” and “All Night Long.” They also took home the

American Music Association’s award for Best Duo or Group

of the Year in 2015. With such diverse musical abilities, the

band is able to seamlessly blend elements of Tex-Mex, Cuban

bolero, R&B, blues, country and rock ‘n’ roll. These multi-

faceted artists have also been able to translate their musical

talents behind the scenes, founding their own record label

Mono Mundo Recordings in 2016. With their newfound inde-

pendence, they were able to produce their own album, “Brand

New Day,” in 2017.

Los Lobos is a Mexican American band with hits such as “La

Bamba,” “Too Small Heart” and “Son of the Sun.” The award

winning band has taken home a Grammy for Best Mexican

American/Tejano Music Performance, as well as a nomination

for Best Americana Album. Their dynamic songwriting and

eclectic style also shot “La Bamba” to number one on the Bill-

board Hot 100 in 1987. In recent years, the band released their

album “Gates of Gold,” continuing to foster their unique

sound with a blend of Tex-Mex, country, folk, blues and tradi-

tional Spanish and Mexican music.

here you are, seated at your favorite slot machine in the

casino. You’re just going along with your usual business

when all of a sudden, and much to your surprise, you’re

surrounded by more lights and bells than Santa Claus at Christ-

mas! A slot attendant and/or slot technician approaches, opens

the machine door and begins pressing buttons. At which point

you’re told that you did not, in fact, hit a jackpot because there

was a system malfunction. You’re thinking, “Are you kidding

me?”

While today’s machines are technologically advanced and thor-

oughly tested by regulator agencies, unfortunately, malfunc-

tions may still occur. What do you do when this happens?

Step 1: Complain through appropriate channels

Whether you are seated at the slots, involved in a hand of poker

or playing a game of bingo, immediately make contact with one

of the floor supervisors in that area. Far from being the bully on

the playground trying to take your lunch money, they are actu-

ally there to help. You want to alert them to the situation as

soon as possible to launch the initial investigation.

If the supervisor fails to resolve your concerns, the next step is

to contact the Gaming Facility Operator. He or she will likely

have the last word for the casino, but if you are unsatisfied it is

your responsibility to then file a complaint with the Tribal Gam-

ing Office. The Tribal Gaming Office will conduct whatever in-

vestigation it deems necessary and determine whether payment

should be made.

Step 2: Time is of the essence

You need to stop and call attention to this matter immediately.

Do not make the mistake of continuing to play! Report this oc-

currence while the details are fresh in your mind. Furthermore,

if an electronic device plays a role in your situation, it is im-

portant to understand that these machines contain a limited

memory. Each device varies, but the sooner you can report your

issue the better your chances of recovering previous data.

There is constant video surveillance of the casino floor to ensure

patron safety and also to record problems that may arise

throughout the day. When involved in an incident, it is impera-

tive that you promptly file your complaint so that possible re-

cordings may be retrieved. Digital files are often deleted unless

there is a reported situation which would require them to be

retained.

NO JACKPOT. NO PAYOUT. NO KIDDING! You Think You Won A Jackpot. The Casino Says You Didn’t. What Now?

By Sami Becker

SAMI’S SMACKDOWN

Step 3: Details are key

Noting the exact name and serial number of the machine in

question is a valuable element in reporting your concern. Re-

cording the exact time can assist in determining which employ-

ees were on the floor and if there is any video surveillance avail-

able. Be sure to document the names of witnesses and casino

employees with whom you’ve spoken to. A precise report is the

most credible complaint.

Step 4: Never settle for less

Do not agree to a settlement with the casino until you are com-

pletely satisfied. Once they offer you something like a free

buffet and you take them up on it, they will consider the matter

resolved. I don’t know about you, but I don’t think that one free

night stay at the casino hotel measures up to a $5,000 jackpot!

If after following this procedure you feel you have not received

due process, you can then contact the Arizona Department of

Gaming. While the Compact gives the Tribes jurisdiction to re-

solve complaints, State regulators are always open to hear from

somebody regarding their good or bad experience at the casi-

When all else fails, the ultimate appeal for patrons is the Tribal

Court. But, that avenue can only be pursued when you follow

the guidelines of placing a formal complaint. Perhaps your final

say comes down to whether or not you ever want to revisit that

establishment. Casinos are businesses like any other and they

want satisfied customers. Let the proper authorities know what

they can do to make things right. $

Arizona’s State Symbols

The Arizona State Flag was established in 1917. The flag consists of 13 (the original 13 American colonies) rays of red and gold (from

the Spanish conquistador flag) on the top half to symbolize our incredible sunsets. The bottom half is blue to represent liberty. The

copper star in the center represents the copper mining industry.
