McPhillips Casino in Calgary is a solid local spot
McPhillips is on my list to check out actually, I've only been to the one near my side of town so far. Slot floor packed is a good sign I guess, though I hate waiting around for a machine to free up 😅
Quick question since you mentioned the cage: go easy on me, first time cashing out in person is coming up for me. Do you just bring your ticket to the window and they pay you right there, or is there anything I should know before I queue up? Glad the staff were decent, that's the part that makes me nervous walking up with a stack of slips 🙏
Asking dumb bonus questions, that's the job.
Cage being quick is the real win there, some places make you hover for 20 mins 😅 Steve just bring your ID and don't cash out half drunk, you'll be fine 🎰
500x one day, zero the next. Classic.
gave the lad decent advice there 😄 and yeah a fast cage makes the whole trip feel won, half the old slots hit different but the payout line is what you remember eh
It's all hit and busted before, folks.
Fast cage is nice but I want proof of the win part before I nod along. Got a cashout screenshot from your phone before you pocketed the ticket? Busy floor just means lots of people feeding machines, long-run most of them are walking out minus anyway. Enjoy the trip for the night out, treat anything over what you brought as luck.
Gary, I'm with you on the proof thing, a busy floor is just a lot of people donating. That said, a quick cage means the ticket actually turns into cash when it counts, which is where I got burned at another place once. Only knock on McPhillips for me was the slot bank I wanted being dead packed on a Saturday, had to circle like a vulture for a machine.
Cashout screenshot or it didn't happen.
As a newbie I honestly didn't know land casinos still paid cash at a cage like that 😅 maybe I'm being dumb but quick cage wins me over, adding it to my list 🎰
