My secret machine- a lone 5 star quarter 9/7 TDB -was removed a couple weeks ago. I asked a slot mechanic why. He said "they weren't making any money on it." Too bad. I was.

No, not when you know the exact multipliers on board. You should ideally use the multipliers given in the current hand, which was 5X for every hand.hophoofer wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 10:33 amYour formula is clearly wrong. “So a quint with a 5X multiplier on board is worth 16 x 5 + 2 -1 = 81” It should be like this:Vman96 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 7:59 amHolding a quint betting 10 at UX is incorrect at all paytables except when a quint pays 80 coins without a multiplier. You must have glossed over that in my last post in this thread. When vulturing, also hold a quint at 75 coins.hophoofer wrote: ↑Mon Nov 09, 2020 11:38 pmYeah, if 5oK pays 12 instead of 15 and royal pays 20 instead of 25, hold 3 deuces if betting 5 credits.Jstark wrote: ↑Sun Nov 08, 2020 10:36 pmI had a dealt 82228 on a crappy nickel DW game the other day while picking off multipliers. The quint paid 50. Had to run the hand on the analyzer as I wasn't sure (not completely familiar with those lousy pay table DW games). It was a 222 hold. Ended up with 2 wild 4oak's and 1 redrawn quint.
But I think holding 5 of a kind is still the correct strategy when betting 10 credits. (not your case)
I never seriously study DW games since the best game in my area is the ugly deuces, not quite interesting.
(adjusted win) = 2×(base win) + (multiplier) - 1
“When vulturing, also hold a quint at 75 coins.” - that’s exactly what I mean.
