Japanese Casinos

Japanese Casinos are virtually unknown, but that does not mean, of course, that the Japanese are not lovers of gambling. There are many games of chance that have originated in Japan that have not yet been westernized. Keno is one of them and pachinko slots are another. Keno is one of the oldest games in Japan and was invented thousands of years ago in medieval Japan. There were differences between the modern game of keno and the game that was played in that time. First of all, the cards were different. There were no numbers, but a long poem that was used in those days to count things with. This poem is still used today. Secondly, the prizes were different, as money was seldom given out. The prizes were land, farming implements and cattle.

Pachinko is the symbol of Japanese games which is a mixture of slot machine and pinball. Pachinko is unique because the government does not control it. The government tries to police it only by trying to tax pachinko parlor owners. It is technically illegal for pachinko parlors to hand out money directly to patrons, so they hand out tokens instead, which can be redeemed for cash at nearby cashing stations outside the shop, run by a separate token-redeeming business. Each pachinko parlor sets its own machines any way its likes, although most conform to the industry standard. The word on the street is that the industry standard is roku wari gaeshi, or a sixty percent return. Compare that to an over ninety percent return rate on most Las Vegas slots, and you get a pretty good idea of just how bad a gamble this game is. Still, it is a mesmerizing activity that promises nightly amusement to those without a social life. In Japanese films and television dramas, scenes of some exhausted husband going out to play the game often follow scenes of domestic spats. Because pachinko requires a considerable investment of time, beleaguered salarymen can use the game to run from family responsibilities, demanding girlfriends, the bullying section chief, the kids who refuse to go to school, and the wife who finds pleasure in a different game. In other words, the escape pachinko offers has untold appeal.

The player is quite passive while playing pachinko. He or she is only controlling the speed with which many small steel balls are thrown into the pachinko machine. Pachinko machines can be found in pachinko parlors which are spread over the whole country. Many parlors also offer a corner with slot machines. One can recognize parlors easily because they are bright and colorful. Inside a parlor it is loud and smoky. Both men and women play pachinko and it is said that there are even a few pachinko professionals.
