> Strictly Slots, a new monthly magazine devoted exclusively to people
> who love playing slots and video poker. The new full-color magazine,
> which debuts in December, will offer players quick-read, consumer-
> advocate-style ratings of the latest slot and video poker games,
> along with in-depth features on some of the most popular games in
> casinos across the country. Players also will be introduced to many
> of the people behind the games, for a glimpse at how slot-makers keep
> coming up with more and more outrageous ideas.
>
> Strictly slots also will include slot and video poker strategy tips

> - on how to get through a casino trip for practically nothing.

>
> According to Glenn Fine, the magazine's publisher, this means the
> magazine will mirror the culture itself. "In other words, it will be
> fun," Fine says. "Strictly Slots will offer readers advice on getting
> the most from the machines, but it will do it in a fun-to-read format
> that people will look forward to, issue after issue."
>
> Strictly Slots will spice up the hard information with colorful
> photos and graphics, plus a collection of humor columns, comics,
> puzzles and slot trivia. There will be reviews and guides to dining,
> entertainment and hotel amenities available in the major casino
> markets. Readers will also be introduced to jackpot winners
> from around the country, both in quick-read format and in more
> intimate profiles that show how a slot jackpot can change a person's
> life.
>
> "Slot players across the country will want to take issues of Strictly
> Slots to the casinos with them, both as a guide to the new games
> that are available on today's casino floor and as a manual for
> getting the most fun possible from their casino vacation," Fine says.
