play progressives, scouting means finding the highest jack pot + pay table and checking the meter rise.Okay. I mostly do quarter FP JOB, which happens to be progressive. Yesterday $1172. But  reverse ATMs! I lost $30 in under ten minutes on two machines. Meter rise on a weekday scant, as I was the only one playing them. Don't know if linked. I assume not, since my play was accounting for the rise. I won't play below 9/5 JOB since return is dramatically knocked down. 




Full pay JoB progressives usually won't have too much of a meter rise, otherwise they will be averaging above 100%, which most casinos won't want, and it is also illegal in about a dozen states.

The best meter I have seen on a 9/6 JoB game is 0.25% in Tunica. To be honest, I think it's the only 9/6 JoB prog. I've run across so far.

  You weren't making a point, you were slamming him and you got caught with your head in the cookie jar. You then tried to backtrack your way out of it.I defy you to show me WHERE, in my previous post in this thread, I was "Slamming" him......seriously, you are full of crap, NO where is there anything in my first post but reasonable conversation points and tone.......

agreeSame to you notes, where did I "slam" him?Why would I "agree" with Phil if I were slamming him? ??    You allow your hostility and ill will to cloud your judgement and end up looking as foolish as tedlark......but you clearly are not as meanspirited and lacking in integrity as him.

[QUOTE=DaBurglar]Phil this is a good post, but to borrow a page from Ted's book,  "WHAT NEW info or theories are you offering here?  In other words, what are you saying that has not already been said?"  db, your quote above is what i would consider a 'slam'. of course, you will not see it that way. you were trying to take a dig at ted (which is fine), but you took a dig at someone else instead. i do not believe phil has ever posted a negative comment about anyone, he has done nothing but try and be helpful to others, with his 'system'. you screwd up.

I agree with you guys 100 %. Being a relative newcomer to VP, I got caught up in the excitement of some of these gimmick games in the casino last year. The results were not good over a period of one year. I am back to exclusively playing the classic single hand games with the best paytables available ( $1.00 8/5 BP mostly). It took me a while to figure it all out , but now I am happier and my wallet is too.
