FAA, i certainly understand, 99.9% of my play is multi-hand. I almost have an allergic reaction if I have to play single hand. It is boring to me and I have a hard time playing unless my hit frequency is high. There is just something about putting all my hopes in just one basket when I can have multiple baskets. If my timing is really good I'll move up denomination and usually reduce the number of hands but I just almost can't play single hand.
Larry I am 99% a single line player. If I had better pay table on muti line I would be all over it. I can't give up 1% for muti line. While fun to costly for me.

Too much screen clutter. I prefer the spare elegance of single hand.

Ditto's WM. I believe our multi-line choices are worse than a 1% hit. If i am wrong point me at them. On a brutal single-line JOB day i might give them a try.

Woo hoo! I busted at Caesars on tilt. $200 ATM and off to Ocean for $40 FP. After netting $25 FP, I kept going. Dealt 4SF and expected more heartbreak. I drew 6D dead center for $239! Ocean rescue! Pay table shortchanges players $11. Somehow not a problem.

I assume you were playing single coin dollars. Had you been playing full coin, you might have appreciated that the 239 for 1 payout creates a $1195 payoff that avoids any paperwork. Or, perhaps not, since you covet a hand pay.

I assume you meant a W-2G form, not a hand pay. My wife and I have gotten numerous hand pays for progressives under $1199. In fact, at one casino, we would get hand pays for as little as $100+. It was years ago but assume the same policy is still in place.

Thanks, OMT. I was obviously unaware of their logic. I’ll sacrifice the $11 to enrich the high rollers.
