Green Acres is the Slot for me: Gambling in Oklahoma

 NEWKIRK — A recent trip to Native Lights Casino in Newkirk, Oklahoma, led me to a new slot machine based on the classic sitcom of the 1960s, Green Acres.


Having grown up watching reruns, I decided I had to give the machine a spin. I inserted $20 bill and bravely hit max bet. The slot is a penny machine that offers 40 lines of play so the max bet was only $2.


The game offers three bonus features including the Haystack Bonus, where the gambler picks a haystack to reveal free credits the Hot Cake Bonus and Arnold’s Wild Bonus Play.


To my disbelief, I hit the Hot Cake Bonus on my first spin. As I watched in shock, an animated Eva Gabor, who played Lisa Douglas, whipped up a batch of her one of a kind hot cakes for a table of characters that included the Ziffles and their pig Arnold, Ed Dawson, Mr. Haney, and of course the Eddie Albert character, Mr. Oliver Wendell Douglas.


Before she serves the hotcakes, the gambler must choose a character she then dishes out the hot cakes. After they are serve, the gambler may keep his stack to take is neighbors or shuffle the plates.

Each time the gambler successfully chooses a character with hot cakes, he receives credits and the bonus round continues until the gambler chooses a character that receives no hot cakes and his shuffle option is gone.


My first experience with the bonus round resulted in six rounds, a $24 win and a fun time. It seemed as the rounds continued, the hotcake stacks got bigger. When the gambler chooses the wrong character and looses, Lisa then makes a gigantic hot cake and throws it on all of the characters bringing the bonus to the end.


I cashed out and took my winnings to the Green Stamp machine. However, I was not as good at collecting stamps as I was at eating hot cakes, so I returned to Green Acres. I inserted another $20. With 40 lines being played, odds are you will win something on nearly every spin. At the end of 100 spins at 25 cents a spin, I had hit the Arnold bonus several times, and the Hot Cakes Bonus a couple times. I managed to turn the $20 into $40.

In the end I found the game to be very entertaining with winning odds.
