You can have them load your OBC into a slot machine but you must gamble it —- you cannot immediately cash out on that ship. Their slot machines are not updated to allow this. It never has in recent years. With OBC you get credits that must be bet or lost. Winnings can be cashed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted August 18, 2022 #27 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Not so. On Infinity in July we could load OBC into a slot and cash it out. On Reflection we could not. The staff said thar Reflection did not have the updayed software to allow cash out without gambling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winnings can be cashed out. Worked perfectly fine on Millennium in July. But even if you play it, breakage is like ~ 20% if you play it through a machine with $2 bets. I'd rather lose $100 off $500 and take 400 bucks cash home than spending it senselessly in the shops.

If you re-read my post I gave the expected loss for one run-through of the money of eight to 12 percent. At blackjack or roulette the loss would be much less.

Also, this largely depends on how much money you actually have to spend and how big your bets are. I try to be conservative and think 20% breakage on slots is realistic and even for that you need like 200-300 spins. What system are you playing in roulette that you yield a loss of less than 10%??

I was wrong on the roulette loss. It will average 10.56% loss to wash the chips. I don't know about the slot hold, but the awful video poker still returns about 94%. Craps is probably the best bet.
