Resorts has it on half the HL room. Harrah’s can afford to pull it. Sucker clientele is stuck at the Marina. Neighboring Borgata and Golden Nugget probably dumped theirs long ago.

You would think that after all this time, you would learn to stick to a denomination at which you can play max coin in. This would quite possibly eliminate the short coin quads.

You are so laser focused on getting that 4 figure hand-pay that you are losing out on some decent quad hits. The outlying problem here though is that you regularly play games where the royal is the only prize.

That’s one of the biggest problems with JOB too.

I like the cat and mouse game of trying to maximize the trip win. I often get burned like yesterday. Twice in a trip was especially unlucky. I dumped JOB because it was a job and the pay tables somehow shrank to 8/5. BP is in my personal risk wheelhouse.

So, is playing $5.00 denomination and betting 2 coins, part of your cat and mouse game to maximize trip wins?
