What's your bankroll like? Twenty hands at 5 is pretty volatile compared to a hundred of 1.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction is supposed to make sense.

In your case, a Royal pays 250-for-1 for 1 coin, 300 for 2, 400 for 3, 500 for 4, and 800 for 5, so 5 coins per hand is, by far, the best play.

Bankroll is $1,000 a day.
I mainly played on a 25 cent machine. When I do 100 hands at 5 a hand , it costs $125 a spin
I hit 2 Royals in one hand when I was doing 100 100 hands at 5 a hand ( I was dealt AKQ10 suited )
I then changed the value to 50 Cents - hence $250 a spin

Hi
I may be missing something here ( apologies in advance if I am ) but the Royal Flush pays 250-for-1, 600-for-2, 1200-for-3, 2000-for-4 and 4000-for-5

You are indeed saying the same thing as ThatDonGuy said. For example your "4000 for 5" is the same as "800 to 1 when betting 5", which is what ThatDonGuy was trying to communicate.
So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

Axelwolf - what do I do if I lose 1K 5 days in a row ? Well first of all, I live in Vegas and as such the most I go to a casino for is 3 nights ( before I lived here I had longer vacations but now I go to casinos more often but mainly just for 1 night)

If I lost 1K 3 days in a row, I would go home and try again a few days / weeks later. I expect there will be times, when even if I play the right way, I will have losing streaks. No good chasing it
