New machines unplayable.

The lighter side... playing for entertainment, less concerned about "the math."

When I first started playing the 4 QQ machines at Harrahs AC you had to know God to get on one of the machines. Regulars had a phone chain they used to pass an open machine on to one of their friends. The same 4 machines are virtually empty now, except for an occasional tourist or conventioneer. Pay tables are the same. QQs are non existent.

Exactly the thing observed by many others! It's not the pay table so what is it? Come on experts, even our alleged experts,enlighten us un-washed semi-intelligent rec. players.

When one plays millions of hands a year, we can’t all be wrong!

If you can catch the 5 minutes every 12 hours or so, great. Otherwise I like the term used already. Bankroll Eaters.

Again: What are the obvious reasons? Facts over supposition; proof over assumption.

I can't believe that this thread has been taken over with talk of casino conspiracy.

I had a long dud streak yesterday for the first time in months at Bally’s AC. I had a great fifty minutes, then busted in forty. I really jacked up play in a delusional state. Forget JOB going forward. For crying out loud, I have a better time on BP and I don’t need ten damn coins to see the jackpot. I won’t play at Harrah’s AC because it’s just dollar 9/6, a doomsday bust route. Maybe I’ll just make Sunday Bally’s trips and hibernate in the sports book!

Ted your wrong! It is not conspiracy. You and others continue to bring that up!!
Explain the changes that so many have observed,or get off your high horse!!
This is not randomness, this is something that we are trying to understand!!
Help or go away!!

Exactly OLDS. You could not have said it better!!
Except with this caveat. We could be full of S--t. We are simply searching for an answer.

I’m starting to think that my casino’s cold cycle starts at noon. I’m going hard at the outset next trip. Just replicate hot cycle times I say.

tech it's up to YOU to explain the changes(?), not the other way around.
