BJ is a good way to cash out Free Play. do the math.
You win your original bet plus one unit when you win, and on a push you convert one free play unit into a unit you can cash out.
IF you intention is to run the free play thru one time and cash out, BJ is far superior to the games you re playing. If you plan on playing for seven hours and recycling your winnings until they disappear, it doesn't matter what you play.

that machine i poured my money into was kind to me last year hit 1k$ RF, 2k$ RF and 500$ 4 ducks
now he seems to remember me and wants his coins back! or atleast the math remembers me everything seems to be correcting itself long term losing 1k$ stings and losing in 7 bleeping hours is beyond human words i feel cheated but my store is opening up on the plus side i think Darkoz goes to my casino

Steve what you are seeing is normal play, has nothing to do with pay table. Pay table is only long term looking, your talking short term play. Case and point I played NSUD 99.73% early this month. Five bucks a hand for 8 hours, more then 8000 hands never saw the 4 ducks and lost $1800.00

Click this link and see the other side of the same game same machine. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=12589

The game deuces is much more volatile then you think. This passed Feb. I played over 12,000 hands and never saw 4 deuces, it's just the way the game runs, no IGT trickery no players card casino trickery, it's all normal and over years of play it will average out to a loss since all of the pay tables are not 100% pay back. If your not getting a good amount of free play you might want to think about playing smaller or less to keep your money.
i can't go back without the Wstore, everyone here seems to discard that unique reward system, lose in casino rebuy online and choose the day you wish to use, without that i couldn't stand a chance to beat 99% or lower games, i think you are right everything is catching up with me i did decent going once or twice a month back when windcreek was sands sticking with a designated bankroll and hitting jackpots now im playing more than ever due to work and covid and its backfiring x2 the store is not permiting me to purchase freeplay as it did last year, when i saw the other play have 1250$ or 1230$ fp on his card he loaded up 200$ and proceeded to play BJ i think he was playing 1 or 3$ a hand, so i know its possible to get same amount of free play as i did last year just wondering why its different.

and i also question other casinos free play, i see youtube channel where this 1 guy has 2500$ free play and 1k$ free play but plays in vegas area and also plays high limit, do all casinos give roughly the same amount of free play per 1$ action? if my store opens up now i can rebate over a cool grand and if i hit my jackpot this saturday this post was all for naught. i can almost see resorts in ac giving 1/5 of the free play i got but the other 80% nope thats a special casino.

LOL good luck, you must remember this is short term play you are reporting on so one never knows the turn out.

I am on a 3 month losing streak my worst every playing VP. No not all casinos give out good free play, I been getting $2000 a month for months now with $250k per month coin in. But I been cutting back while in this bad rut and my free play will start to fall starting next month. It gets old dropping 1k plus every trip trip after trip.

you been getting 2k a month? id be happy with 1k$ you sound like me in my hayday before covid, before i lost my job to covid and money was flowing in all directions and now all my eggs are in 1 stupid basket, thats what i been doing donating my 700$ weekly and waiting for my store to open, and BIll maybe right stopping now would be a bad move since im in very deep you know your close to it when you keep getting the 3 card hold and 2 flush cards keep poping up but then again i could go on a losing streak that may carry on 125k hands unfortantly only one way to find out

Yes 2k total a month, $250 a week x 4 is 1k then 3 days a month extra pay day $250 x 3 is $750 and then I get $250 for showing up for slot tourney each month total 2k free play. Plus $120 a month in gas cards.

I think I will fall to $150 wk in Sept. due to my 6 month avg coin in falling for not playing much just collecting free play for weeks now.

Your not going to get these kinda perks playing quarters.

i never heard of this, resorts ac just gave 40$ a day but claims in 30 days adds up to over 1200$ for the month, its fine if i lived in walking distance however wind creek makes it so you lose your money you buy back via their site and reading my gambling logs it didn't take all that much for store to open last year, but this year its like pulling teeth, you just play their free online games earn wscore points and purchase free play the days you want it, its very tricky tho sometimes one purchase and the store closes but you keep your wscore points i saw last year i had 500$ worth of it and ranges from 200-1100$

you are correct, 97% quarter machines or 5$ a turn on 98.91% machines i know if i give them that action they will give it back

im just having rough patch of gambling i didnt mind losing but i could not stand 500$ gone in 3 stupid hours on DW i avoided 97.87 ddb cause of the high variance and i watch other people play they make 10 bucks on games like that last for 12min i feel lucky to have 1 minute on 10$ on ddbl 9/5

This is why I stick primarily with scavenger plays and very little regular play. Yeah I may not bang away at high limit games with good comps/promos/points, but its very tough for me to have a losing day.

Can you elaborate? I can't fret about comps, promos or points either. Just trying to leave town ahead.
