KNOW YOUR MACHINES
Credit: A credit is equal to the denomination of the slot machine. For example: if you’re playing a $.01 denomination machine, a credit will be a penny and therefore an 80 credit bet will be $.80. If you’re playing a $1 denomination slot machine, each credit will be $1 and so forth.
Pay Tables: A guide found on a slot machine that shows different combinations of symbols needed to win.
Single Denomination: A slot machine that has a betting denomination that can’t be changed.
Multiple Denomination: A slot machine where you can select the denomination you want to play ($0.01, $0.02, $0.05, $0.10, $0.25, $1.00, etc.).
Minimum Bet: The lowest amount you can bet on a slot machine. Depending on the particular machine, a minimum bet will often not qualify for specific jackpots.
Max Bet: The largest amount you can bet on a slot machine. A max bet is often required to win certain jackpots.

CLASS II GAMING
Class II Gaming: At Ho-Chunk Gaming Madison, you are playing against other players across a network and not against the house (in this case Ho-Chunk Gaming Madison). With each spin, you enter a new game against other players and in each game/spin someone always has to win!
Class III Gaming: In a Class III casino, you are playing against the house with every spin, so there is no guarantee a player has to win.

HOT SEAT PROMOTIONS
Hot Seat Promotions: A casino promotion where guests are entered into a drawing by simply using their Rewards Club Card. During the promotion period, the casino will use a random generator to select a Rewards Club Member who’s currently playing with their Rewards Club Card.
TICKETED DRAWINGS
Ticketed Drawings: Rewards Club Members who play with their Rewards Club Card earn entry tickets for select promotions. Entry tickets aren’t just earned either! Entry tickets can be won through other promotions along with most promotions including a FREE entry ticket for Rewards Club Members. All entry tickets are printed off at the Rewards Club Booth and then placed in the drawing barrel by the Rewards Club Member.
PROMOTIONAL KIOSKS
Promotional Kiosk: A casino tool that allows Rewards Club Members to interact and participate in different virtual promotions. Promotional kiosks offer unique games and promotions that allows Rewards Club Members to pick their own prize electronically!
REWARDS CLUB POINTS
Coin-in: How much money is wagered into a slot machine. This includes guests’ cash along with any winnings that might have been accumulated along the way. Example: if you bet $1 and subsequently win $5 on that spin you will now have a total of $6 on the machine with $1 of coin-in. If you were to bet that $6 back down to $1 with no further wins, you would then have accumulated $6 worth of coin-in despite not losing any of your own money.
Points: When playing with a Rewards Club Card, one point is earned for every $10 of coin-in.
Points 2 Play: A feature that takes points earned on a Rewards Club Card and converts them into Rewards Play. This is done by Rewards Club Members on select slot machines.
