美國著名的職業賭徒 Marten Jensen 原是一位元數學家，又是電腦工程師，其人浸淫賭業三十餘年，從學術的觀點精研賭術，以實際的行動征戰賭場。縱然是一般職業賭徒鮮少涉及的老虎機，他也有其精闢的鑽研。Mr. Jensen 曾條列出 “打機十要” (Ten Tips For Slot Players) 特為轉譯，以饗讀友。

|
1. |
Be sure to always insert your slot club card, your player’s card can effectively increase the payback of your investment.
“打機”前勿忘“打卡”，插入會員卡以確保你的 “投資”記錄，絕對有實際效益。 |
|
2. |
Play only what your bankroll can handle, the decision will be based on how much you can afford as well how long are you planning to play, always play for the best jackpot but low limit bet.
度量自己的賭本和打算投入的時間，量力而為，投注基本下限，但不可錯過大獎規定的投注額。 |
|
3. |
When you insert coins, be sure you get what you pay for, your best protection is to observe the paylines as you insert each coin, to be sure the correct sections light up. If one of your coins doesn’t register, be sure to wave down an attendant or press the CHANGE button. Don’t spin the reels before the situation is rectified.
每投入一個角子，要確定機器收入的標示，如果有投注而無記錄顯示，務必要召來服務員更正，稍安勿燥，別啟動機器。 |
|
4. |
Play one machine at a time; two loose machines are rarely placed alongside each other.
一人一機，單打獨鬥，因為兩部 “好”的機器 (Loose Machine) 決不會並列一起。 |
|
5. |
Never play the machine right next to someone who is winning.
同一道理，如果見到有人正在贏，它兩邊的機器，決不可碰。 |
|
6. |
Stay with a hot machine; never leave a machine that just paid a big jackpot. A hot machine that could continue to pay out very nicely.
遇到“好”的機器，可別離開，特別是剛剛出現了大獎，這部機器可能持續開出更好的獎。 |
|
7. |
Abandon a cold machine. After six spins, the machine has paid out very little, abandon it.
任何機器如若連續六次不出回報，放棄它﹗另尋一台，以免深陷。 |
|
8. |
Never leave a machine that owes you money. Stay with the machine no matter how long it takes the attendant to arrive.
老的投幣式角子機，會出現 “脫底”賠付 (內儲用盡) 的現象，固守此機是上策，務請耐心等候服務人員來補充。 |
|
9. |
Don’t forget to press the CASH OUT button.
當斷不斷，自肇禍端，想走就走，按下 “兌現” 鍵結帳走人。 |
|
10. |
Remember the cardinal rule: QUIT WHILE YOU ARE AHEAD, BUT NEVER QUIT WHILE YOU ARE WINNING!
牢記基本戰術：有贏就走，不輸為贏，但如果正 “旺”之時可別離開！ |
