Not quite a Royal
Yeah. I guess CET + no competition = these paytables. Actually, I did not do my due diligence. I found a $1 9/5 DDB machine after I made the first hit. Not great, but better than 8/5.Quote: WizardofnothingCongrats- but with those paytables you have to run like god
Beginner's luck. Read about dstp long enough that I wanted to try it. Hit twice for $500+ also, so it only cost me $200 to play.

Must'a been quite the good promotion in order to play 8/5 DDB! That's a loser's game....

Apparently I forgot to post this.
Quote: beachbumbabsYeah. Was getting 7x tc for playing.
how did I miss this?!
which casino was giving a TC multiplier?!
That's a pretty atrocious pay table? 96.7%?Quote: RS...Apparently I forgot to post this.
Quote: RSI only play the worst games. They are more likely to pay out since the paytables are so bad.
I take into effect all considerations before a play:
Worst paytable
Highest denom
Moon cycle
Time of day
Hydration
Distance to bathroom
So basically I play $100 8/5 TDB during a full moon, graveyard shift, with at least 5 waters in me to start the session.

Harrah's Gulf Coast was giving multipliers every Mon and Tue in January. It depended on your tier what the min was. You swiped your card and it gave you a random.number in your range,.Had to swipe.once each day, then all your play was credited with the multipliers, and your bonuses stacked on top of that. I was Diamond, swiped for minimum 5x, got 7x that day. 7* was even better. Actually, it's still going today and tomorrow if that's useful to anybody.

Went to Oneida in Green Bay to play bingo. My 50th birthday just passed and they had drawings in bingo for all the January birthdays. Got lucky and won twice in bingo, hitting any outside line for $300 (7 calls, my card had the only B, N and O numbers called) and winning the $1K blackout at the end of the night.
After bingo, lost some money playing tables (craps, BJ and ultimate), but made back what I lost on the tables with several big hits at video poker.
First, I hit my first four deuces on DWDDB (a game I couldn't find on WoO's listing, but it looked interesting and I was playing while I waited on my food in the restaurant.
After that, I moved to a different bank and was playing DDB on Extra Draw Frenzy ... a verstion I like because I like getting the extra hands on a dealt 3OAK.
Got into the feature several times and only improved to 4OAK twice, once with 7s and once with 3s (which of course paid better). But I also got these two hands outside of the feature.
I gave some more back at Ultimate ... .couldn't get anything going last night. Then decided to wind down the night playing some Ultimate X. Got my first big hand on that game.... even though I was only playing nickels.
All told, a great night on the VP machines for me ... only hitting the two royals that paid big in my life were better nights.
Nice hit! Ha, definition of "not quite a royal" even though it paid the same =P.Quote: PlayYourCardsRight
p.s. You don't need the [/img] closing tag.

Nice hits though. Getting a nice dealt hand is always great in STP/double STP/UTX.
But it ain't gonna be this day!
(That's 5 AWAK in my last 5 trips!)

Not possible. That would require losing 1600 bets of $500. I doubt you could even play 500 games in an hour on that.

I should've clarified. I meant just playing TDB. Not necessarily 100 play. That game can be brutal.
I wonder if the casino can't just load 25k or some amount against front money or markers for people playing that big? Another ugh to load 5 bills for each hand played.
Quote: beachbumbabsThat would be a nightmare. Dealt 3oak and above would be a hand pay every time, and you'd have all that tax liability. Ugh.

Most bigger casinos will sell you TITO tickets but most machines only accept $3000 at a time.
I've played it a couple times and it's a giant pain
Quote: MoosetonYes TDB is 2-1 on trips but you know her point (w2gs every few hands).
Trips at 2-1 means at least $1,000 pay without connecting to a 4oak or FH. A 5-K 4oak pays an extra $240, so you only need 1 to get a taxable. Almost every dealt 3oak will be a taxable.
I'm pretty sure Cosmo has a fast-play feature or something like that. If you hit a taxable, you just type in your pin or some such nonsense and it does key to credit, so you don't need a slot person to continuously key the machine. I'm not entirely sure how it works though.

Had two of them on NSU as well. Was a good night.

Quote: VenthusI was half elated and literally facepalming when I got this one today because I was trying to decide exactly what I wanted to play-- some flavor of Bonus or White Hot Aces (I prefer Aces and Faces, and the latter is... kind of close...ish). That, and since I was just killing time waiting for somebody, I was only playing dimes instead of something larger. (Bonus points: Look at how many credits I have remaining.)

At least you were playing a decent game and not something stupid like JOB or DW.
What denom and # of lines would you normally play?

Nice hand! And, more importantly, you didn't hold all 5. Can't stand that!

I'm not sure I understand the question, but I assume you took cash and thought that was risky. Again, I'm not sure, perhaps you thought it was risky that you might not hold all five cards?Quote: BTLWIBesides my -EV gambling, what was the biggest risk by far that I took here?

You took a picture before making the hold. Always make the hold first.
