Free Free Play?

Post by FloridaPhil »

My local casino is running an hourly drawing for $1,500 in free play. They draw out 5 names an hour. You have 24 hours to play it all. If my name is called, at first I thought I would go directly to the high limit room. After thinking about it for a while, I think it's better to play all $1,500 in DDB dollars so you can keep all the jackpots. How would you play it?

Deuces wild or bonus deuces wild and cash out every winning hand of 25 for 1 or more. Quarter game. Keep all of the larger wins you cashed out.

I'll bet most people at our casino would play slots with this free play. I would play dollar DDB and cash out every quad or better. In ten years I have never had my name called in a drawing. I might have 10 years more on this planet. Maybe my luck is about to change? :star:

I would find a single line quarter machine to avoid a W2G. Play low variance JOB or Bonus Poker with the highest return and play 1200 hands. Then pocket the close to $1500.

Interesting. With $1,500 in free play there would be no losses until you used up the $1,500.

Yeah, quarter JOB. HR odds stink. But you should clear over $1,000.
