Finally a little old spice cologne, I mean clone

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

As to the newer RNGs, the end result may be the same, but if and I say if yhey are designed to cause the player to run out of bankroll or time along the way to a jackpot, the casinos win big time. I won’t be able to hang in there and play 16 hour sessions forever until the sine curve goes my way.

Tech, you simply must quit your home casino. Everything about it sounds terrible. I suggest just play on the site and plan a NV or N.J. trip.
Not quite that bad. Many good pay-tables ,available but dwindling. Play weekly with good comps.
Nothing else close to that in MI.
NV or NJ definitely better in my opinion. but not as handy.

BTW thanks to posters for info. on F-Troop. I was working my ass of 12/7 back then with minimal TV time.

Just for accuracy: Larry Storch played Cpl. Agarn and Forrest Tucker played Sgt. O'Rourke. Ken Barry (who later went on to star in Mayberry RFD) played Captain Parmenter. Larry Storch went on to star in many episodes of "Love American Style" and Love Boat.......

You guys with the memory thing amaze me. In my case the old saying applies: "Of all the things i've lost,I miss my mind the most". Too much cheap beer I guess,before I switched to craft.

On a normal day, you should be -$1,500 with that CI. I definitely can’t go $6,000 between quads on JOB.

Huh?
$35,000 coin-in was apx. 3500 hands at avg. $2 play. By my crude calcs. that is somewhere around a quad per 200 hands. Hardly a normal day. Right or wrong math guru's. :?:
If correct, i should be up considerable.

There is no place you "should" be after just 3500 hands. Your next 3500 hands could be completely different. At some point, you hit a 3500 hand range where you get 1 (or even 2) royals. That's not surprising. We all play enough 3500 hand sessions where we will see the best and worst of things.

Play a thousand of those sessions and you'll see a lot of good and a lot of bad ones. More bad than good usually, but they will start to average out based on your pay table and the strategy you are using.

Negative game, plus I figure it’s a 95% doozie. So I gave your coin in about a 5% haircut.

You gave Tech a buzz. I guessed a 9/6 job game which means only a trim at -175 bucks or so. At any rate those dud streaks in between quads especially if full houses are sparse can eat up a bankroll in a hurry so being ahead any amount without hitting a Royal is great.
