IGT machines

"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.

Which, in an Indian Casino, is the tribe. A sovereign nation, that can do
whatever it wants. So it's not governed by health department in the
restaurants either, or smoking regulations, or gun permit laws.....

Greeting from OK, the state that has more casinos than any other state in
the nation! An so far, NOTHING PLAYABLE! And you wouldn't believe the
crowds that "just don't get it." Virtually all are class III, but you can
find IGT 8/5 in the state's largest casino, Cherokee Casino, Tulsa, OK.

Blackjack has a $.25 ante per hand, $2 minimum.

Roulette's illegal, so you stand in from of a wheel, and watch a flat screen
for the winner. Amazing.

I had a most interesting experience at the Seminole Hard Rock on a
type II machine. I had a couple of hours to kill before a flight and
thought I'd play a little to pass the time. I sat down at what
appeared to be Full Pay Jacks or Better, but it had the caveat I was
playing bingo. The machine had autohold, but it was bad autohold, so
I switched to the proper play. A magic genie appeared on screen (I'm
not kidding) and changed my 5 cards to what I was supposed to get if I
would have followed the autohold.

At that point, I decided I could better kill time in one of the
restaurants instead.

I can't speak for OK but this statement is simply untrue in several
states I am familar with. The gambling compacts in many states specify
what kind of inspections are required, etc. I also believe most tribes
comply with other state regulations as well. The whole sovereignty
issue is not as crisp as it should be.
