This is a slot machine that resembles the real slot machines in the casinos. To create the project, you need to insert three image boxes into the form and program them so that they will display a set of three different pictures randomly when the user presses on the spin button. It involves a randomization process. Next, a timer needs to be incorporated into the procedures so that the program can produce animated effects. In addition, you can also insert the Microsoft Multimedia Control so that it can play sounds in synchronization with the spinning of the slot machine as well as when the player hits the jackpot. You can design any interface you like. We have created an interface as shown below:

The Code for Spin Sub Procedure
The three random variables a, b and c will be randomly assigned the values 1, 2 and 3 using the RND function. Based on these three random numbers, three different pictures will be loaded into the three image boxes randomly using the LoadPicture method. Animated effects are created by putting the above procedure under the control of Timer1, which will call the spin procedure after every interval until it fulfills a certain condition. Sounds are also added using the Microsoft Multimedia Control to make the game more realistic and interesting. The amount won is controlled by the If...Then...End If statements
It is important that you define the correct path for the LoadPicture method, otherwise the program will not be able to run. For example, our path is C:VB programImagesgrape.gif, you need to create the necessary folders and have the necessary image file if you wish to copy the program directly. If you place the image file in a differently folder, you need to modify the path accordingly. For example, if your image file is in D:VB programImagesgrape.gif, then you need to modify the LoadPicture method to LoadPicture('D:VB programImagesgrape.gif').

I don’t make any bones about it that this website is geared more towards those who are brand new to the advantage slot player life. I’ve come up with three tips on how to conduct yourself when you start hustling in the casinos to help ensure you don’t rub folks the wrong way.
- You are not the only person in the casino who has this figured out.
This is something I see frequently from brand new hustlers. Wide-eyed, they’ve discovered this awesome way to make money & to actually beat the house on a regular basis. They’re super eager to take on any available play by watching these machines like a hawk & rush the machine when someone leaves a good, juicy play. Sometimes jumping in front of someone who was already waiting.
They get tunnel vision & have a total lack of awareness that there are others in the casino who know too. This can lead to tension right off the bat for the new hustler & possibly a confrontation. My lesson to you is to be aware of your surroundings for other advantage players in the area who are may already be waiting on a machine which leads me to…
- Keep it moving

You see that another hustler is already waiting on a machine. The hustler may now already be on the machine you were interested in. You didn’t get this opportunity so go find another one. There is no point in sticking around. No one likes a nosy neighbor.
- Unnecessary Camping
You often have to sit on nearby machines when waiting on an advantage opportunity. You’ll find out quickly that slot hustling involves a lot of waiting. But do not camp an advantage machine when a) no one is playing it & b) there is no advantage. The other hustlers will think you’re greedy who wants all the action on that machine for themselves, an idiot or both. You could be missing plays elsewhere in the casino.
I’d say unscientifically that 95% of issues between hustlers is because someone violated one of these three tips. Stick to them & you should run into few problems.
