Are $5 Games Beatable?

Everyone is different, makes the world go round. The math is easy for me to convert, but I
I prefer playing in “cash” mode…. For me it’s why bother with that extra step… I bring cash to play, I get hand pays in cash, my money management strategy is cash based, I take cash, not credits, home - albeit sometimes less, sometimes more cash than I started with …. Good luck to all….

I agree hiker the math was always pretty straightforward. Casinos always do little things to get players to disassociate with their funds, but when I used to play it was always with money I truly expected to be parted with, so it really didn't matter to me if it displayed as a whole number or with a $ and decimal. All I cared about was playing long enough so as not to be bored.

Funny, I get bored flat betting and especially JOB

“I know that previous results do NOT affect current plays/hands.”

That’s my current affirmation, and it definitely helps ease my nerves while helping me control urges to try and ‘will’ particular hand results.

I want to know how the paytable has any affect on how often any hand will be drawn. It doesn’t, right?

It’s more of a warning label: “you get a full house more often than not so we pay 9 coins to help fill your pockets” or “…we pay 5 coins to bleed them wallets dry!” Idk.

Something like that.

In general, pay tables don’t affect whether the game itself will dole out top three hands, and have no bearing on the RNG?

Do any of you believe the RNG has memory chunking or loops that we call ‘hot and cold streaks’? I’m with the person I’m quoting above, my plays seem ‘streaky’ too.

I also adjust my betting sizes to fit certain parameters or streaks.

Four of a kind’s come in threes, followed by a Five of a kind almost every time. I can’t say how often but when they do they do. I adjust my bets accordingly to intercept a bigger pile of coins when it does. But, I like superstition.

Another thing, can the people around me playing have influence on the game and when the RF will pop up?

I know it s a higher math answer, so naturally I wouldn’t know, but how does the probability of an RF or any combination get factored into it when each hand is independent from the last, and not from the same deck?

If the RF can be drawn at any time independent from the time it was last drawn, not being drawn from the same deck as prior combinations, then why does it matter whether it’s 2,000,000:1 vs 2:1 when all hands have the same chance of being drawn?

Idk if this posted to the person I was quoting. So it might sound out of place.

Sorry, you lost me.

Every hand is played from a freshly shuffled, standard deck of cards. That's why the probabilities don't change.

None of that other stuff is real, imo. People are very selective in their memories.

Probability and odds are strange birds. You can flip a coin and the chances of getting heads are 50 50. But if you flip a coin and get heads, the probability of getting heads on the next flip is 1 in 4. The odds however remain at 5050.
