Slots is a game with no strategy I think. Do you find it boring? How would you compare it to poker?
 
Slots and poker differ vastly in terms of gameplay and strategy. Slots is luck-based with outcomes determined by a random number generator, whereas poker needs a wealth of skill and strategy.
 
Apples and oranges, really. Slots involves no real skill; whatever the RNG spits out is what you get. Poker is both skill and luck. I find slots pretty boring, while poker quite engaging. (Don't get me wrong; I ain't knocking slots players. A lot folks enjoy and the comps can be generous, depending on venue. The one-armed bandit just isn't my thing.)
 
Slots and poker are two completely different games, as whereas slots rely not on judgment but on pure luck, but poker involves strategy and skill to win.
 
Pretty different gambling, though I know my dad rather play slots than hope on some winning cards. Though I rather play cards, a bit more eventful.
 
Slots and poker are quite two different games. In slots you don't need a strategy. You only need more cash to play your games! In poker games! You need skills and luck to win. You see they are two different things!

There is a big difference between slot and poker because slot is typically a game of chance and luck. While poker requires certain strategy and reading people, slot is typically a game of luck.
 
I wouldn’t compare slots to poker beyond the fact that both involve risk. Slots are purely luck-based, while poker involves a combination of skill and luck.
 
Slots and poker are very different kinds of gambling. Slots are entirely luck-based. You spin, outcomes are random, and there’s little control beyond managing how much you bet. Poker is both luck and skill. Cards are random, winning depends on strategy, discipline, psychology, and decision-making.
 
Poker and slots are very different games. Poker rewards skill, decision-making, and reading opponents, where as winning on slots is s entirely luck-based. That’s why many players enjoy poker for the challenge, whereas slots for entertainment and yes for money.
 
I don't think it is good to compare between two entirely different things. Poker is a game where you need skills and luck, slots is just a game of luck. Poker is not entire gambling, where as slots is entirely gambling.
