How does he do it?
I know some of you wonder how the hell does Wildman hits all them Royals. There is no real secret other than you have to play enough hands to get one. The norm is 40,000 hands, and I do that in 4 days of play chasing entrees for a promo.
I play only 2 games single line 90% of my play 9/6 JOB and NSUD. The other 10% is muti hand games, it would be more then 10% but the lower play tables stop me from playing them more.
The last thing is I been Playing at this casino for more than 20 years, trust me when I say I know the machines. There is 5 bar tops to play, I one play 2 of the 5. One of the bar tops the machines will wipe you out 98% of the time. There is 7 banks of machines on the floor, I only play 2 of the 7. What I am saying is the machines DO NOT play the same.
As far as the chip or RNG goes its just a program. No one really knows how it works but the programmer.
Gone from the casino where I play are the old up right machines. We played the hell out of them for years and they played fair.
Today we have these newer next gen machines. They wipe you out 80% of the time. If this was all I had to play I would give up VP.
We still have some what I call old slant tops. They might be 30 years old. These I play all the time, they play very fair, I might get wiped out 20% of the time.
The last 15 single line Royals I have had came on 3 different machines I would call them my fav 3. Not all machines play the same I don't care what anyone form IGT to the guru in Vegas says, my bankroll play tells me all I need to know.

Don't they move the machines around a lot? How do you keep track of which ones are the good ones?

Ditto and usually I am too stubborn to move around from machine to machine.

Rare are the ones that get moved and stay in the building. Rarer yet are the ones that stay in the building with the same paytable. I was lamenting the removal of a beloved machine for months until I found it hiding close by one day with the same paytable and the same TC rate.
