Man, people sure get worked up around here.
If he wants to lose money, I say go for it! It's not my money. He knows what he's getting himself into and he feels the cost is worth the entertainment value. No tortilla off my taquito.
We have some members who believe they know what's best for the rest of us. They tell us how to play with our own money. Now they are telling us we should stay out of the casino entirely. I don't know who they think they are helping with this stuff, but it's not working. Maybe they should get GO HOME! signs made up and walk around the casino?
Back to the discussion. I also hate it when casino employees stand around and have loud lengthy conversations. I like to play very early in the morning when we are on vacation. That puts me in the casino around 5 AM. It's quiet and peaceful and I can hear the music. This is about the same time the employees start coming to work. Sometimes they stand around and yak about last night or whatever is on their mind. More than once I have had to ask them to move down a few rows. I am polite and they always respond in kind.Bobbi wrote: ↑Mon May 20, 2019 1:50 pmAnd back to the original question - We travel to the casino together - then split up to our favorite machines. One touches base with the other if it's time to eat or one of us has run out of money. My favorite machines are usually at the bar - most comfortable for me - I hate when there is a chatty bartender. Some of them will have a long loud conversation with a player at the bar and it bothers me. The person who drops a dollar in the machine and plays the game a quarter at a time while waiting for his drink is another annoyance to me. VP is sort of therapy where you can stop thinking about things that need to get done and just enjoy the moment.
I hardly ever play single coin anymore. I increased my bankroll to allow me to play max coins all day. It costs me more money, but my comps are better. I don't see anything wrong with playing single coin to extend your play as long as you are willing to accept a short coin royal.Bobbi wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2019 8:39 amQuestion for you all............. When ready to leave the casino and you have less than 5 credits left in the machine, - how do you feel playing out those last credits? I have done that and I am almost glad I didn't hit anything. (No, I wouldn't cash it out because the time it would take to go to the cash machine wouldn't be worth it to me).
It has happened zero times to me. Not sure I care for your "guarantee."FloridaPhil wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2019 9:47 amTo answer your question. As soon as you switch to single coin you are almost guaranteed to hit a decent hand. I have no idea why.
