Myth: A good video game player will be a good video lottery terminal (VLT) player. Fact: A video game requires skill; the more you play the better you become. A VLT machine, just like any other game of chance, does not require skill. The results are completely random and you cannot influence the outcome of a VLT game. 3, record 1, English, - video%20lottery%20terminal
