"So, tribal machines are different from other machines? I am new to this and trying to catch on? Should I only gamble in Nevada to get a fair shake? Thanks:)"
In general tribal machines are different in that they are not a random deal. In most cases you will see a small device on the machine that appears to be a bingo/keno game being played.
In the US, there is no reason to limit your play to Nevada. Any jurisdiction that has Class III gaming should be a random deal. However, it is not the State of Nevada that regulates machines outside of Nevada but rather the appropriate state gaming commission.
