Reason #3 why the Wizard likes Bovada: Excellent Odds In my opinion many online casinos are too stingy when setting the odds on their games. They think they will make more money that way but I believe they are misguided, because when players lose too quickly it’s not fun, and those players might not come back. Bovada is one of the few casinos that understands this. They offer generous odds to let you play longer and get you a better chance of winning. Among their generous offerings are Full-Pay Jacks or Better returning 99.54%, six other video poker games paying over 99%, single-zero roulette, and my favorite, Pick ’em Poker, returning 99.95%! Kudos to Bovada for not being afraid to give their players a good gamble. More about Bovada Visit Bovada	Slot Machine appendix 3F Last Update: Jul 27, 2002

Miscellaneous Slot ReturnPercentage

A 5 Canadian cents Leopard Spots machine tested had areturn of 89.975%. 5 Canadian cents are equivalent to3.15 U.S. cents.

Observations: Montreal only has one casino, the Casinodu Montreal, which has mostly 3-reel slots. I could onlyfind two banks of nickel video slots, which contained amongother games Leopard Spots. This is another type of LeopardSpots than they have in Las Vegas. In Vegas the bonus spinsare free and in Montreal the player must still pay for them.If you do play this game in Montreal be sure to not walkaway from a machine that still has bonus spins on it. Aninteresting thing about this game is that although theplayer bet in nickels the game returned quarters when theplayer cashes out.

A 0.50 Euro Texas Tea machine tested had a return of92.504%. At the time I played 0.50 Euros wereequivalent to 50.77 U.S. cents.

Observations: Like Montreal, Monte Carlo has mostly3-reel slots. However I did find some video slots at the SunCasino, including a Texas Tea, which I was able to test. Itshould come as no surprise that the game coinage was 0.50Euros, all games carry very high minimums in Monte Carlo. Ialso checked the Casino Monte Carlo and the Casino de Paris,which did not have any video slots. The Sporting casino Inever checked.
