Hello Rudies! As most of you probably know, once in a while, I’ll film a collaboration or friendly competition video with some of my slot friends - always a good time with my pals! There have been many ‘challenge-style' videos going around lately towards me and others, and I don’t mean to disappoint, but these out-of-the-blue ‘challenges’, are something that I always decline, for a few reasons.

Even the word ‘challenge’ comes with baggage attached to it - many people associate it with conflict and negativity, and that’s not in my nature. I started doing this JUST to have fun and prefer to keep it on target with my core beliefs! 

Also, if anyone can ‘challenge’ me at any time, and there were an obligation for me to accept them all, I wouldn’t be able to make these videos for you guys anymore. I’d be spending all of my time responding to challenges from every person who came along. If I decide to do a fun video with my close friends, as I have in the past, then that should be my choice (speaking of which, I’ll be filming a fun video with Diana just next week!). My friends and I get along great on YouTube and beyond, and we always have a blast together while cheering each other on even from abroad.

Anyway, with that being said, I’m sure my position on this will disappoint some people - it’s not possible to please everybody. But I’m hopeful and confident that the vast majority of you will understand where I’m coming from, and recognize that for me, it’s all about having fun, and playing responsibly and I wish everyone the most success. So with that being said, I’ll see you guys at the slots! I have a busy week ahead and best start packing for it...

It is VERY difficult for me to differentiate between which slot machines are my favorite, and which ones I play because they’re my FAN’S favorites. Despite numerous times of being asked this question before, I will attempt (and most likely fail) to pick my top ten slots at the casino right now. To help me choose, I am ranking them in order of which machines I just MUST play every time I visit the casino.
 
Cleopatra 2 – I mean come on, it was one of my biggest jackpots ever and it really kickstarted my channel. I’m always trying to relive that moment.
 
Wheel of Fortune – Speaking of moments – who can forget that $10k win during a LIVE Stream! I never used to play this game, but now you can’t get me off of it!
 
Buffalo Gold – This has been a crowd favorite for quite some time. It probably would have been closer to the top of the list 6 months ago, so we shall see if it even ranks in 6 months from now!
 
Quick Hit Wild Blue – I just can’t NOT play this game. I will keep trying to hit those 8 or 9 quick hits!
 
Tarzan – Aristcrat has done it again with this new concept game. As much as I hate the volatility, I freakin’ love it too! (It does help I got a hand pay on my first attempt!)
 
Double Top Dollar – This game is fun regardless of the denomination. It’s one of the few times you feel like you have SOME control over the outcome! And it must be the "DOUBLE" version too!
 
Wonder 4 Tower – This game is always a must. My favorite is playing all 4 Pompeii games at Max Bet which is only $5 a spin!
 
Lightning Link – This is one of those games that I used to LOVE, and then despised and now LOVE again! And talk about a game changer for the industry! As much as I realize that ‘it’s all about timing’, you always get that feeling that the MAJOR or GRAND is about to hit! I’m ready to #LandTheGrand
 
Dancing Drums – This is one another one of those game changing machines. I mean, who doesn’t want to fill that pot up and get one of those delicious bonuses?
 
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory – One of the older versions with the 7 characters all around it. It’s my favorite movie and they did a wonderful job with this machine. 
 
Honorable Mentions: Super Jackpot Party, Gold Fish 2, 2x10x5x Bonus Times, Pinball

​My first year in the US, Marco and I lived in the Northern California Bay Area. I would drive to LA every week to audition and take classes for film/TV (yes, 12 hours a week driving!). With New Years just around the corner, we had planned a trip to Vegas - our first time EVER visiting the city. In preparation, I turned to YouTube to find out what casinos to visit and I came across people playing slot machines. At first I thought it was nuts to watch someone else gamble, but within minutes (as I’m sure you can attest), I was engulfed in the world of SLOTS.

Fast forward a year and Marco and I now lived in Los Angeles. I was once again returning to Vegas on a trip with family and it was at this time when I decided that I’d try my hand at filming my play. I never wanted to start a slots channel - in fact I posted my videos on my 7 year old acting channel (that had around 30 subscribers!) as opposed to starting an actual ‘Slots Channel’. I did it merely for the fun and excitement. I kid you not when I say that I had ZERO intentions of going much further with it and little did I know that this action would forever alter my path in life. I don’t think there is a soul on the planet who could have predicted what we have built would become what it is today. But it was the actor and filmmaker inside of me who wanted to change it up a bit from what I was used to watching.

My first videos were kind of lackluster, but the viewers found something unique they liked in them. I never advertised, shared my videos to social media or did any sort of publicity aside from simply publishing them on YouTube. Instead, I allowed them to grow organically. I mean I didn’t plan on my channel succeeding and so I gave it no thought as to whether or not I should share them anyhow.

To my complete shock and surprise, the videos took off! Within 3 months I had 4,349 subscribers and was invited to join the YouTube partner program. It was at this point where it was time for me to make the most important decision of my life. For some reason the world had presented this crazy path for me. Do I follow this non-scheduled journey or let it go and continue on the path of acting which I had been on for the past decade plus. I decided that perhaps I should see where this one may lead. Two and a half years later there’s this magical thing called the RUDIES, 65 million views, and a Silver YouTube Play button on my wall. None of it came without a ton of hard work, dedication and sacrifice. I knew nothing about YouTube going in and so I studied hard, took classes, attended conferences, emailed companies and basically started to take charge of my own path. 2 years ago I couldn’t have told you I’d be where I am today, and I have no clue where I’ll be in a further 2 years. But I will continue on this path and I thank you for joining me on the ride!
