Also, let me warn you to be careful. Many of the machines at Charles Town have a max coin bet of 20 coins. Usually the paytable will improve a bit as you bet more coins but I would not hit max coin when you first sit down. You can increment your bet and see the paytable by hitting bet one credit. Once you have a paytable and level of bet, then you can just hit the "deal" button and it will repeat your last wager amount.
Good luck. It can be a decent alternative if you keep your stakes low.

Charles Town is not an Indian casino so all the regulations are online and when you have the take you can review them by doing a little research. If necessary, you can always call the West Virginia Lottery Commission that regulates the casino.

Also, if not random you may experience the "genie" who magically changes hands or the match card feature.
