Move machine after hitting 4 of a kind or higher?

Post by Determined »

Another belief from a friend of mine is that once the machine hits a big hand, 4 aces with a kicker or the royal, then play a few more and and switch machines.
 
He is successful by the way he cashed out 2k last Tuesday after hitting and moving. Never hitting the royal to get the 2k.
 
Again, it being totally random shuffle, do you need to move?

Nah.  But if it makes you feel good, go ahead and do it.  It makes no difference.

 Remember, It's random and that darn thing is capable of hitting practically back-to-back!

I like to try and feel the energy of the machine and align my enrgy to it's. If it needs to rest I do not force it to play longer, but if it still feels vibrant and strong I continue.

Won't you get in trouble if you pick up the machine and move it somewhere else?

Yes. Especially if you remove the bill validator.
 
Seems this topic comes up every now and then. I move every now and then just too keep my mind sharp. If I find my mind wandering it helps to do something different. However, it really will not help or hurt over time. Somedays it works great (like my last RF) and sometimes nothing happens like the last 10 times I moved.

And then come the kids. Then college, then the grandkids.
Just move in together.

I find myself agreeing yet again with oej.  Don't let the initial attraction cause you to jump into something that you might regret later.  Try before you buy.  Find out if your fave machine is a cat or dog lover, and if it snores.  See if it comes through regularly with kickers for those dealt Aces/bonus quads, if it lowers its paytable over time, and if it shares its special plays with you.  See if you both like KFC, collard greens, and cornbread.  The important things in life.
