The online poker site where I play claims to take VISA and MasterCard as deposit options. However, every time I've tried to use a credit card to make a deposit, the charge has been denied. One of my card companies' fraud department even called me once to make sure my card hadn't been stolen; they then informed me that they never honor charges for online gambling. I know there are other payment options, but I'm not real keen on giving a third-party payment company my bank info just to play poker. Are there any credit-card companies that honor an online gambling transaction?

Is there a rule in poker that if you show your hand to one player, you must then show to all at the table? Thanks for your help — it will settle a bet.

There are plenty of lists of popular slot machines (Double Diamond, Blazing 7s, etc.), but I'm just curious about some of the not-so-populars: ones that made it to the casino floor but then were gone like a flash. I know the manufactures do a lot of research, but I'm sure they have had some flops.
