103% Joker Poker: Bankroll?

Kings or better (103.3%), $2 denom, 10coin max bet ($20/spin) for Progressive ($37.3k).

The base game is 95.5%.
The Royal (no Joker) has variance of 391.

How much should I bring?
And how long will it take, on avg?

I politely suggest that the game may not be video poker.

edit: Cranial flatulence. Didn't see the progressive vs base properly.

Wiz's RoR calculator:

Royal is $37.3k @ $20/spin.
If i just brought $37.3k, RoR = 74% :(

If i bought 3x the Royal ($112k) to play, RoR is still high at 40%.

What's a comfortable RoR to play with?

I am not confident at working these out, but are you sure the return^^^ is about 103.3%, I get closer to ~98% ($2 denom?).
^^^: I would wait and see until a VP/Math expert confirms the return you got is correct.

Lastly, before I looked at it more carefully. I already started on a couple of simulations using ~103.3% as the return, so if you are correct then read further / see the results I got below.

I don't know what the consensus is, but I would play with at least $160,000 (very roughly 1/30 chance of busting).

Note 1: Since I am using a free version of a simulator, I could only go up to the equivalent of $200,000 bankroll (... roughly 1/75 chance of busting).

Note 2: Because it would have taken too long, I capped the turnover/wagering per session to "100 x the bankroll", for example "the equivalent of a $200,000 bankroll, I capped the wagering to $20 million.

Note 3 / Very Important: I only got to 10,000 sessions for each simulation, so that is why the estimates for busting are "very rough" (if I had the time and a powerful enough pc, then I would want at least a 1 million sessions (preferably 100 million sessions).

Lastly, when using the "Wiz's RoR calculator", the disclaimer says "... In games like video poker, video keno, and slots, where the worst case scenario is losing one unit, I believe this calculator to overstate the chance of ruin." (so the estimated RoR that I got from "limited simulation", may be closer to the "true figure", when compared to that one?)

Update: From the screenshot you posted, I get 92.824% (or 7.1757% "expected drop^^^ " when no Royal has been hit) as the return for the base game (base game = return for everything except the "Royal (no Joker)"?).

^^^: Assuming my "expected drop" figure is close to correct, you would want to have hit the Royal within ~25,990 rounds or earlier (~48% chance of NOT hitting the Jackpot, by then ).

Also, unless you can "continue to find machines, with a 100%+ RTP", you should probably set "stopping points" even if you have enough bank to "keep going/playing"( I know this is the "wrong thing to do long-term", but it may be the "safer option" from a RoR pov , especially if you think it will be unlikely that you will ever find a machine again with a similar denom and EV).
