The last time I was there they had a couple of 10 coin .25 FPDW machines that were slow and they also had no CB. That was two years ago. I don't know of any $ FPDW since they were pulled from Hard Rock.

s46516, what do you do if you lose $10?  Do you quit for awhile, do you move to another machine, do you change games?

Put another $10 in the machine unless I use up all my aloted $10 bills. If that's the case I just take all my tickets and cash in and go home. Well maybe<VBG>. This is just on a 25 cent machine. I normaly don't play $1 machine but if I did I would double my bank roll I take to the casino and use twenty's instead.....Remember, this does not help me win more $. It just help me from keep "feeding the machine" when I'm having a bad night... It helps limit my loses on these nights.

One other thing, I'm not a professional so it maybe not be the right thing to do but it seems to work for me. It helps me to be more acountable for money being spent at a casino .....

I used to put in smaller bills for much the same purpose. Over the years I have migrated to just putting in a Benji when I sit down to play. The results have been the same as one would expect.
 
So, it is neither right or wrong. If one always does what is comfortable for themselves they are on the right track. This includes many things, like moving to another machine, playing long or short sessions, etc. Gambling is supposed to be fun so follow your own preferences and you will enjoy yourself more.

I do the same thing with Ben's, just because I don't like sitting on a fat wallet full of small bills as I play.   When I do put a big bill in a touchscreen machine I always toggle the display so that it shows my points as dollars instead of credits.   Helps remind me that it's "for real", and not some sort of video game.
