Avery Cardoza's 500 Slots & Video Poker contains over 80 variations of slots and video poker, with ten bet amounts ranging from a nickel to $1,000. Slots include three reel machines (1-3-5 payout lines), four reel machines (1-3 payout lines), progressives, bonus payouts, wild symbols, and multipliers. Dozens of video poker machines offer several combinations of play including double and triple progressives, jacks or better, deuces or jokers wild, and double down among many others.

The game features a unique "Ask the Expert" mode, based on Avery Cardoza's professional gambling strategies, which covers literally millions of probabilities in providing advice on the best play for every card combination. Gameplay is initiated through a point-and-click interface, and the Las Vegas-style ambience is supported by full casino sounds (payout bells, multi-track sound, and musical cues).

Additional game features include statistic tracking for up to twenty players, credit and "cashout" buttons, and two online strategy guides written by Cardoza, totaling more than 300 pages. ~ Michael L. House, All Game Guide
