The song will never change until we acknowledge what the experts have already confirmed. Playing net negative VP games is a loser. The only way to reduce the cost of playing these games is to not play them, play them smaller, play them slower or play less hands. If we ever get to that acknowledgement, I won't have to repeat it.
Should Everyone Always Play Max Coins?

Summer of 2019 and Phil is pushing the same CS strategy that he himself claimed to have abandoned.

Are you drunk?
Who are you waiting for that acknowledgement from exactly?
Nobody disagrees with it.

It didn't take long for FP to steer this thread off its intended track of max. coin play and onto the playing negative VP games is a loser track.

The ONLY way to reduce the cost is to NOT PLAY THEM. Playing them, even very slowly one credit at a time will eventually bankrupt you. There are no "if ands or buts" about this fact. This is why I suggest staying home and playing on your computer, phone, etc.FloridaPhil wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 3:00 pmThe song will never change until we acknowledge what the experts have already confirmed.

Well, can't say I agree with that at all.
If your bankroll / budget allocation exceeds your rate of loss, you will never go broke. I guarantee you I could never go bankrupt playing single coin pennies. I would die of boredom long before that happened.

I like to short change the machines. I need the money more than even CET does. Just pray that it only costs maybe $20 in quad return.

Hey Faa, i play in AC too and those machines at caesars and ballys are the tightest regardless 90-99.54% the end result on my 20$ dollar bill always ends the same back to 0.
although i think i did reach 33 or 36$ on caesars 9/6 progressive and then it took a nose dive to 0 casinos favorite number
i hear what Phil is saying and also with Jstark, the problem for me playing single coin i would seal my fate to a 62.50$ and if cash is a problem for me i shouldn't be gambling period, so far me right now single coin is almost as bad as NYC scratch off lotto tickets think those are a 65% house edge but if your retired and wish to stretch your time in a casino then try CS, my wife would divorce me if she saw a single coin RF on my machine i could hear her yelling wheres the other 940$ at?!? everyone has their own route and way to do things but im not gonna tear it down like Jstark or Bill
