i guess im just saying i live a boring life, some people are born hit men others are play girls and others are professional gamblers and it seems like science-fiction /fantasy to me and ofcourse list goes on to be a war general to professional sea diver , it sounds so not boring to me oppose to what im used toonemoretry wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 5:59 amCongrats on the royal!stevel96a1 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 1:14 amit really does blow my mind to acknowledge things outside my life almost science-fiction these people just jump in a gaming house and gamble away win or lose and some actually make a living doing just that but your also reading from the same guy that believes its science fiction/fantasy theres people out there who have sex for cash or people out there would do bodily harm for your 5$
But, I do have to state that I have no idea what you are trying to say above.

yes but that 0.76+ edge stands strong, had i played in Atlantic city off 97% where 4oak pays yucky 20 and not powerful 25 it would have chewed my bankroll up and spit me out in the ocean flat broke on me ass.onemoretry wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 3:47 pmUnfortunately, often they don't.stevel96a1 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 12:11 pm12 more months until next trip im thinking about making vegas a bonus vacation if the royals keep coming

There are indeed 100.76% games for quarters in Vegas. If you play fast and accurately, you might clear $10 per hour. Sometimes you can get a minimal amount in comps along with that, but it would be very rare to be able to play that game and be comped enough to get a free room and meals as well.
And you're going to fly how far to come get this bonanza because you want to make some money? and how much do those plane tickets cost? Casinos will not comp airfare for quarter FPDW players.
If you want to come to Vegas because you enjoy it here, great. If you want to come for money-making purposes, coming for a quarter game, even at 100.76%, is simply not a cost-effective move.

No AC player should patronize 97% when 99.5 % abounds on boilerplate JOB. Vanilla is not a bad flavor.

Faa, we also have 99.69% SDB for quarters, a Double Joker progressive that resets at 99.91% and various deuces games that are well over 97% in AC

Damn. So the key to winning in Vegas is hitting a Royal. Who would have thunk.

Whether you are 0-for-1, 1-for-2, or 2-for-2 makes no difference as to whether it's a good play.stevel96a1 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 10:46 am

Good plays are based on future expectation, not past results.
Using past results to determine whether a play is good is like steering your car on a mountain road only by using the rear view mirror for information. It doesn't work.
In addition, two data points is woefully small. If you think you will hit a royal flush on every trip just because you did it 2-for-2, well, it just doesn't work that way. Without your (rare) royal flushes, both trips were losers. Again, not particularly significant. Software will tell you what the games are worth. You'll know from your mailers what the casinos will give you. You can look at your credit card receipts to figure out how much the air fare is.
