Slot Machines: Who Made Them and How Did They Evolve?
How much do you actually know about slot machines? This popular casino game has a long and interesting history from a simple machine being popular in bars to an online game being played worldwide.
The bet: Hop 7s pays 15:1 per 7 combination, or 5:1. A $30 Hop 7s pays $150 + the winning $10 bet remains (-$20 on two losing bets). The worst paying instance is when the bet hits on the 9th number rolled. This means you have bet $30, $30, $30, $30, $30. The return is $160, for $150 bet. The 5 paying results are +$130, $100, $70, $40, $10 profits. Why would you take 4-1 on Any 7 when you could take all three hop bets and get essentially 5-1 on it? It's not exactly that. $3 bet hop any seven, hit leaves you holding $15. $1 each on every combo. Of seven, hit leaves you holding $16 for the same $3. Little bit better, but not night and day. White Moses, that's good.

Introduction
Props and Hops is a craps variant that got its debut at the Sugar House casino in Pennsylvania in 2014. It is pretty much the game of craps with all the best bets removed leaving only the sucker bets. The name is a play on words, referring to 'prop' bets and 'hop' bets. Hop bets are a long-shot bet in craps on a specific dice roll, like 1-6 or 5-5.
Rules
Following is a list of the bets available. All bets resolve in a single roll. Pays are shown on a 'to one' basis.
- Field — Pays 2-1 on a total of 2 or 12, 1-1 on totals of 3, 4, 9, 10, and 11 and loses on all others.
- Hard hops — Pays 30-1 on any specific double, for example 1-1 or 4-4.
- Easy hops — Pays 15-1 on any specific combination of two different faces, for example 1-3 or 4-5.
