Creator's Key Takeaways

Hi, I'm Tanner from cruisely.com, and I have all that and a ton more tips and advice as I dive into everything that you want to know about the casino on your cruise ship.

These coin pusher machines almost always have folded up cash stacked on top of the coins as a little sweetener to make it even more fun to play.

I played with this strategy for about four or five hours over the course of the trip, and I came out about 30 or $40 ahead.

Cruise lines, they have been on a trend of spreading wagering to events outside of the casino.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check if you have a drink package, as it will work in the casino but you still pay for it.
✓Look for coin pusher machines with bills on the outer third or quarter of the field and avoid those with slots along the outside rails.
✓Use the casino's bill breakers or cashier to get small bills for tipping or souvenirs.
✓Visit the casino to watch sports events if you can't stream them in your cabin.
✓Ask casino staff for used decks of cards or dice as unique souvenirs.

Drinks not included while playing in the casino — You have to get a beverage the old-fashioned way by heading to the bar and paying full price, unless you have a drink package.
Casino limits might be too high — Casino limits are pretty low for most table games, with many $5 or $10 minimums, and penny slot options available.
Casino placement might be inconvenient — The casino is strategically placed near the middle of the ship on main interior decks for easy access and high foot traffic.
