Are there any reasonable-sized casinos that still have coin-in machines? I understand it's cheaper to have TITO machines and the supposed benefits, but there's nothing like the clink of the coins and the feel of them in your hands. Yup, dirty hands, but it's just more fun!

I'm hoping you can clarify something for me. I am a big fan of Las Vegas documentaries. Two of the documentaries I've seen seem to conflict with each other. One claims that baccarat didn't come to Las Vegas until Frank Sinatra brought it to the Sands in the early 1960s. Another shows early songstress Rose Marie claiming that Bugsy Siegel once gave her $10,000 to play baccarat at the Flamingo. How could Rose Marie have been playing baccarat in 1946 if it wasn't introduced for another 15 years? Any insight on this? When (and who) first brought baccarat to Las Vegas?

Can you explain how a random number generator decides if any given spin on a slot machine is a winner or not? We keep reading about the "split second" timing you need to hit a jackpot, but what exactly does that mean?
