ace, the damage was nothing given the session length. +10 units is just a good half shoe away.

I'm -$150 for PGT this session (sodawater, your seat was awful, with a capital A), +$550 playing with AoS in Ultra Lounge. Trip is +775.

I actually went to a casting call for Barney & Friends in '94. They didn't end up casting the Asian kid. 😔



Wrong Barney, surely you grew up in Mayberry !

Damn. I bribed her to let you win, and you managed to screw that up too.

$100/pull, all the way. Maybe play that $100 or Nothing slot machine, if they have it, must win nearly 50% of the time.

Never mind, I misunderstood that machine. It's $1.00 and you either win $100.00 or lose. I thought it was $100, and you either profit $100 or lose it.

I'd still find something around $25/pull, though. You don't want to draw a W2G for a small win relative to the amount bet.

I'll ask on tripadvisor later, but just a quick question for you guys. Cheapest alcohol in AC? It could taste like fermented piss, my friend won't care. I know the bar in the Wild West has like $2 drafts 24 hours? Is there anything cheaper?

Yes just sit at a slot machine when the waitress is about to walk by and pretend to play. Free.

Or go to a penny slots and actually play. Cheap.

Or watch a friend play and order when he orders.

I know that works, but I don't see drink service really being fast enough anywhere for an alcoholic like him. Of course I spend most of my time at Plaza, so yeah.

I have seen this machine in .25,.50,and $1 varieties.You either lose or win 100 credits.Not a bad machine....I have done well at this machine at times.

I would try a $100 single coin double diamond slot....here's my story.A friend of mine and I were at a racino in Anderson trying to decide what machine to play.We were joking around about giving the $100 double diamond a try.While we were discussing it,a guy comes up and puts a single $100 bill in and hits Double Diamond/3bar/Double Diamond.Forget what paid,but it definitely taught us a lesson.The reels go around as fast as they do on a .01 machine,but you never know when lady luck will strike.Positive variance all.

Thank you for the information. I would probably put the equivalent dollar value of 100 Credits into the machine and then quit on the first win or lose it all. Obviously, given slot returns, (and the fact that it is not a Progressive) the best way to play is not at all, but I'd likely try the machine out at the $0.25 or $.50 level if I saw it.

I suggested that when I thought it was profit $100 or lose $100 because:

1.) You would have a better ER (generally) than with a lower denomination machine.

2.) You could get that better ER without the risk of a W2G on a relatively small win.

3.) The hit rate on such a machine couldn't be a far cry from 50%, so you'd have a good chance of getting a nice return on your Free Play.

But, that's now how the machine works, so it's irrelevant.

Since you are at the Plaza anyway...the WWW bar is probably your best bet for cheap drinks in midtown AC....assuming cocktail waitresses bringing "free" drinks is too slow for you.

So, basically, you treat Revel like a resort where gambling is a secondary interest? Hmmm...sounds dangerously close to the business plan:-)

Somehow, it seems likely that BJ makes more money for Revel than walking on the boardwalk does. But then, that's why YOU asked about the lack of table time, isn't it?
