Rule of Thumb Advice

Yes, routinely ignored. That said, to me if my bankroll is 1,000 bucks for a session, a 20 buck bet is way too much. I don’t think I have more than a .5 percent advantage on the best games offered by the Ct casinos. I’m not counting things that aren’t like cash, so I just count free play, free gas, and points that can be exchanged 2 for 1 into cash. At any rate, for me, on a 1,000 BR, I shouldn’t bet over 5 bucks. I try and stick to that, but slip sometimes.

Haven't been to Bally's in a long time. Thought the middle line reset at $1,100?

Thank you. Maybe I am wrong, I will ask someone there.

I'm always at Bally's. But I only play single line.

Olds, you are the standard. If $5 is your max, it damn well better be mine.

Anytime I go bigger than 5 bucks other than a few exceptions, I bust in short order. I have done much better betting 5 quarters, going to ten after being beaten up badly, then dropping back to 5 after getting something good.

Interesting. I had to go through all four full pays in my Bally’s bank today. Persistence paid off. $100 BP quad deuces after ditching JOB. Of course, I still left my primary casino-$30. Luckily, a satellite casino, Harrah’s, came through. Those machines were a pleasure. Even when they went cold and I was burning through the standard dollar denomination, I felt that a quad would bail me out. More luck; I happened to be playing max.

That’s some good news for a change. I’m still being punished accordingly for those big wins a couple of weeks ago.

I noticed the forum still has few takers lately. I try and not make my posts novels but they are not brevity either. Hasn’t helped much. Hope everyone is just busy and that’s all.

Well, no bet exceeded $2.50 today. I played for three hours, got three quads and lost 41% BR. Those were highly cosmetic quads. Too little, too late.

Yep just window dressing late in the game
