  • Slot Machine on Visual Basic 2012 Help?

    I'm trying to create a program called the Slot machine

    Button1 is Spin and Button 2 is 50 cent , like if you wan to spin then you must spend your 50 cent first in order to play the game , once you pressed the 50 cent button it will be counted as "Losses" which is the Label2 and next to Lable 2 is the Label 3 where your losses points are saved like "0".

    I have the code here but something is wrong with the button 2 which is the 50cent.

    Public Class Form1

    Dim Spins As Single

    Dim a As Integer = 50

    Dim b As Integer = 500

    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

    Randomize()

    Dim x As Integer = CInt(Int(Rnd() * 10))

    Label5.Text = x

    Randomize()

    Dim y As Integer = CInt(Int(Rnd() * 10))

    Label6.Text = x

    Randomize()

    Dim z As Integer = CInt(Int(Rnd() * 10))

    Label7.Text = x

    If Label5.Text = Label6.Text And Label6.Text = Label7.Text And Label7.Text = "7" Then

    Beep()

    MsgBox("I won 500£!")

    Label4.Text = Val(Label4.Text) + b & "p"

    Label4.ForeColor = Color.White

    End If

    Button1.Enabled = False

    Button2.Enabled = True

    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

    Randomize()

    Dim x As Integer = CInt(Int(Rnd() * 10))

    Label5.Text = x

    Randomize()

    Dim y As Integer = CInt(Int(Rnd() * 10))

    Label6
