Re: Sometimes time can be your friend
If I remember the paytable on the deuces was 20 not 25 for the wild Royal, 10 for the straight flush, and the full house was ok at 4 for one. The flush was ok at 3 for one. Five of a kind ok at 15 for one. I have never seen this paytable before. My guess right 98 percent return long term.

That's a new paytable to me also. 20/15/10/4/4/3/2/1 = 98.48%. Better than the Joker game, actually.
Usually I see 20/12/10, which is 97.58%.
Do you ever play anything that earns Momentum Dollars?

Just double down stud once in a while but overall I don’t do well on it it’s only a 97% pay table

Nice. Every little bit helps. And if I'm reading the chart correctly, your tier earns a 25% momentum dollar accelerator. If you could find a non-excluded 98% game, overall value may be better than an excluded 98.5% game.olds442jetaway wrote: ↑Sun Aug 08, 2021 2:53 pmJust double down stud once in a while but overall I don’t do well on it it’s only a 97% pay table
I still haven't visited Mohegan Sun Vegas, so I probably don't understand the details.

I have never been able to find one, but at about 500 bucks through a machine to earn one spendable point, it is not worth it to me. As soon as something hits 98 percent, they can the points

If I play 500 hands an hour at a buck a hand, on a 98 percent game as opposed to a 98.5 percent game, it will cost me an extra 2.5 bucks an hour long term. I would only earn one point worth a buck, so it is just not worth it. Luckily, I still get free play about a hundred bucks or so a week even though I play the 98.4 and up games mostly. Helps a little. If I average 50,000 a week through the machines, the 100 or so in free play only gives me an extra .2 percent total return, but it is better than 0. Funny, believe it or not, all I am earning at the moment is .2 of one percent on my IRAs . Just can’t chance losing it at my age. Am exploring some alternatives though. Interest rates are definitely on their way up, just very slowly at the moment bearing no relation to inflation at all.

CET cans it with 99% plus. Not that I really give a damn either way.

On my way back up for a few hours. Hope the first half of my most recent trip repeats itself. Going to start out with 98.44 Joker Kings spin poker and see how it goes. I kinda like playing 5 lines. Especially because I can short coin it without penalty. It’s almost like a low budget Martingale Clone players dream. 5 line x .25= 1.25. Same as a single line quarter game. Hope for some dealt wins. That’s what you really need. Then it is x 5 without a penalty like you get on Ultimate X.
