Back from a Mohegan trip today. The little gas and beer money method worked great, but unfortunately, the profit, gas, and beer vanished on a TDB game that was not hitting anything.
     I decided to start with 5 quarters on Bonus Poker Deluxe and stay at that level unless the hundred I put in disappeared. They I would replace it and bet 10 instead of 5. Anyway, the machine hit 3 quads in less than hour and that gives you 300 bucks plus whatever credits you had remaining. In my case about 360 dollars was cashed out on the BPD game, but as posted above was blown away in no time at all. That was entirely my fault for not keeping it and going home with something more and not less than I walked in with.

  Olds I had this odd ball hit Friday, I love this game the 4ok hits a lot of the time for me.

That is so funny. Not the last trip when I got skunked, but the one before I was dealt a black king and drew 4 eights, but I only had 50 cents bet. I can't remember the last time something similar happened. The only thing I noticed is if you do play at least an 8 hour session, you will usually get dealt quads of some sort at least once. Rarely by holding just 1 card though.

Interesting theory. Why did you pick that particular game over all others.

I like the fact that you get paid 80 for one no matter which quads shows up. The only downside is that if no quads are showing and the full houses aren't coming in above averege, you will lose. Also the 1 for 1 2 pair penalty is quite stiff just like in DDB and TDB. It works well as long as quads come in roughly as they should and just like most of the other games if either quads,straight flushes, and Royals aren't happening, the bankroll just says goodbye.

But starting at two coins will definitely give me a nice long session on the small selection of 9/6 machines. I have to become much more disciplined. I like to jump the gamut from two to five. I know enough to never play five consistently. That would show me the door in short order much of the time. Somehow playing five when I hit my thousand dollar royal flush, divine intervention.

I think you meant to say 25 for one on a job quad.
