TTBP My Favorite!

Post by rayj »

So two out of the last three trips to Biloxi Harrahs Gulf Coast been very good to us, cashing for over $15K
playing .50 Triple Triple Bonus Poker! In one instance, I was getting paid for 4A/wk and the wife next to me hit a Royal! First time ever we hit together for $4K. Will be going back soon.

Congrats to the both of you and good luck on your next trip. I've played a little TTBP here on the new game and will look for TTBP in casinos.

Congrats Ray, one hit is great, side by side almost simultaneous hits even better! Although I play 25 - 35% of my bankroll in TDB, and am ahead for the past few years in that game because of above expected number of 4AWK TTB is a bit too high variance for me.. Glad it’s working for you. Continued good luck,

I love the idea of triple triple, but the only TTB remotely close to worthwhile is 9/5 (98.6). You likely won't find 9/7 or 9/6, and 8/5 and lower are not viable for long-term play.

I played a while to try for the 2,3,4 w/A jackpot but it annihilated my bankroll and I've since switched to TDB. If I hit a nice handpay I may feed a hundred into a machine for kicks but it's a very rare event.
Good luck and post a pic if you hit the little Ace kicker.

Experience is the best teacher. TDB is way too high a variance. I remain happily ignorant about it. Hell of a trip, Ray.
