denominations

Post by oej719 »

What denominations 5 cent, 10 cent , 25 cent, 50cent, etc do most people play?
 
Do you ever increase in denomination when you are down a certain amount to try to be in a position to recover and come out ahead when that quad does hit?

I only play .25 VP and slots unless I am ahead and then I may play a little $1 VP. I also like to play $20-30 ina dollar 2 coin slot once a trip to see if I can hit. I hit $560 on crystal 7's once. That was good!

I always start with dollars and work down if I'm down and work up if I'm up. This is per session and my bankroll is split up depending on the length of my trip. I play 2 or 3 sessions per day depending on planned extracurriculars like shows etc.

start playing low and hope that you get about 6 to 8 losing hands then max bet have fun when you are pretty well up cash out then do this on many different machines have fun you can make a lot of money dont get greedy and walk away with a added up cash youll have enough to have a tax free jack pot  ive done this many times with as much as 8000 just by cashing out dont forget to use your players card  if you do hit a jack pot by all means continue lose a little bit it may off set your taxes get a win loss statement when you file its possible that by cashing out then losing some you wont owe any

I play alot of .25/.50 if I`m playing 3/5 play. I can play .05 50 play for the same bet as 5 play .50. Like some others I move up in denomination  if I`m winning. I play some $1 single play.

I play mostly dollar 9/6 Jacks or Better. Last March after being up a few hundred at Trump Marina Casino in Atlantic City, I put $100 into a $10 dollar Jacks or better machine and hit a $40,000 royal on about the sixth hand. I have never played it again, just got lucky.

I do not play for real yet so zero! I want to get to a real casino some day and I am guessing I will start with 10 cents or so because I will be scared at first. I keep practicing though so if I get more confident I will try quarters... maybe.  I don't know!

Ok , Ok. I will do you a favor. Just send me your bankroll and next Monday when I go play video poker I will use your money and we can split the profit. 75% you/ 25% me.  So if I win $1000, I will send you back $750 plus your original bankroll.
 
P.S. I will offer the same deal to anyone else out there. By the way oej is joe spelled backwards.
