Re: Machine thats just paid
I haven't hit royals as closely spaced together as Pepaw's son did but several times where I've hit multiple royals on the same
machine over several hours. These were on 5/10 play TDB or
DW Draw Poker and not DreamCard.This phenomenon must boast the smallest sample size ever. Who stays on a machine after a damn Royal?!

No point continuing to press my luck after a one in forty thousand blessing is actually conferred. My gambling day is over. I would not want to give back a cent on principle alone. Just do some eating and drinking and levitate back home. If you have a room, throw everything in the safe and relax. My one and only royal I did continue gambling on another machine. Dumb idea cost me $80 in three hours. I probably would have saved $50 by sticking to RF machine.

That is certainly not my philosophy. When I visit a casino, it's to play for some considerable time, not quit if I'm lucky enough to hit something big early in the trip.
I don't see the logic in not playing more that day to avoid "giving it back", if you're going to play tomorrow and "give it back" then.

FAA if you take a look at my recent posts that have included pictures, all the multi royal sessions have come from the same machine. I usually spend my entire session in front of one machine.
As onemoretry stated: why would you leave a machine that you just hit a royal on?

I mean, one in forty thousand plus odds! Even if you play multi line, that's quite an achievement. I usually go once a week, so I may or may not give it back then. Just hitting a quad to get a fractional "refund" takes me forever. I like to play for considerable time also. But if I get a jackpot, it's a wrap. You can't improve on that experience, and a multi royal session, on the same machine no less, is like getting struck twice by lightning. You guys are hardcore. Still kicking myself for losing $80 after bumping up to dollar min JOB for three hours post royal. That is a phone payment.

My wife is on a great run lately.
At Harrah's Tahoe four and a half weeks ago, she hit four 25c royals in one day. Obviously, if she had quit after the first one, she would not have got the other three.
Then, a few days later, at Seneca Niagara, she had two 50c royals within about 10 minutes of each other. Again, multiple royals would not have occurred if she quit after just one!
As I've stated before, our philosophy is that we're there to play, and play we will, even if we've hit a big one. I do realize that others feel differently - and that is just fine, even though I disagree with their rationale.
By the way, thank you for devising a way to separate the content of posts you are replying to from your own words.

Wow. OMT, how long of a playing day was it for her? She has perfect RNG timing. I'm there to hit. I figure I've exceeded my daily luck with a single jackpot. Just brief day trips. We are totally different players. I don't even stay on a machine after a quad. One in 423 average, so that's another hour and a half at my rate. Average is my yardstick. I recently learned that this is not always such a bright idea. A woman hit a quad within ten minutes of me scooting over to a clunker draining me of $20 per hour. Putrid for 9/6 JOB. I'll be playing that spurned machine for a much longer duration next time.

A couple years back I was playing at Suncoast in Vegas. Started playing on a Saturday night after work about 6:00. DDB single hand. Started with 20.00 playing nickels, caught quad 4s,went to dimes and so on. Wound up catching a .25 royal went up to 1400.00. Started playing 50 cent. went down to less than 200.00, caught a fifty cent royal for 2000.00. caught several quads and aces with a kicker. Never cashed out, start to finish. left that machine Sun. morning at around 7:00. The 20.00 in my pocket walking into the casino was 4500.00 walking out. Probably should have cashed out 1400. and gone home, but you just never know!

Are you saying that if you hit a quad you have to move because the machine wont give you another for 423 hands?
I've read a few posts on here quoting hand frequency /averages (40,000 for the royal, 423 for quads on JOB)like there tied to the machine somehow?
That 423 average is based only on your hands played, and has nothing to do with the machine itself or whether or not you play on 1 machine or multiple during those 423 hands.
I'm not trying to say it's good or bad to switch machines, I'm just saying that if your using these hand frequency's/ averages as a gauge,it doesn't matter either way.
