Thank you all. The best of health to everyone. Of course, the best of luck too. The area I usually play in is still roped off as of this morning. I hope they don’t change the paytables.

Nice heater, Olds.

Yeah, I guess I'd be okay! Incredible result from the back up machine. I will hit Harrah's and stay off the double digit hands for an hour. That should be for the best.

Better late than never. The Clone cones through. Waiting to get paid.

Waiting To Get Paid is becoming your tag line.

Time to revive this thread in honor of OP’s continued fortunes. And maybe review the MC, .

I got an unexpected kick in the pants by Mohegan Sun late last night and then stumbled on an even more welcome surprise.
They finally opened up most all of the rest of the slots and vp machines including my favorite one that is or was a near 99 percent machine. It’s the one dollar machine that pays or paid 800 for bet one dollar. Also the one I hit 18 K on about five years ago. It won’t be getting even one more dollar from me.
The have altered the pay table so now one has to bet ten bucks to get paid the correct amount for the Royal. Bye bye machine!

The surprise was finding two All Star 2 machines with triple spin poker starting at a quarter and getting paid 940 for bet one for the Royal. For a Martingale Clone player, the betting progressions are almost infinite. I nailed these two machines 5 separate times cashing out at plus 100 each time without ever hitting a Royal or even 5 of a kind. I would have kept going except that it was now 8 AM and I had no sleep yet. Hope they will be there next trip. I suspect these are programing errors. Even though the EV is still negative, it is close enough for me. I have never seen this paytable anywhere in any casino for betting just a quarter. I think it is 98.44. 17/7 game. The best part is it is also 940 for one instead of 800.

Amazing casino if you know the games. I will keep grinding on in pursuit of some kind of max RF. Time to give Caesars the bum’s rush and head to Borgata.
