We like to bring you all the latest casino technology here at WGM with our resident gaming guru The Tiger always on the lookout for what’s hot on the floors of Macau’s casinos.
It might surprise you that one of the hottest new machines in Macau at the moment is the old Las Vegas favorite – the money wheel. Prior to the new hybrids, the money wheel had never really caught on in Macau but this is rapidly changing.
I am not sure why the locals never warmed to the money wheel before but it seems it has really caught on with the smaller punters who love the fast nature of the hybrid style of gaming.
There are many reasons why the money wheel is a great gaming option to the uninitiated or the small outlay gambler. For starters, it requires no skill to play and takes just seconds to learn. You simply bet on the odds you want, sit back and watch the wheel spin. You can turn a small investment into a large windfall if successful at odds of 47/1 or 23/1 and it still caters to the bettor who likes the even money option.
The last great thing about the money wheel is that it is a very social form of gambling. Many players will place a small bet on the big odds options and you will always hear the cheers from the crowd as the pointer approaches these options.
Look out for an in depth analysis of this new technology, how it works, who is behind it and where you can play this new version of the money wheel in an upcoming issue of World Gaming Magazine.
