Barona Qualifying

[pesach_kremen1]

Barona has a bank of 25 cent machines that includes 6/9 JOB. As we all
know there are plays of NSUD for $1 up but being that I am more
knowledgeable at JOB and it is offered at more of an affordable level, I
am posing the following questions"

Return on JOB estimate at 99.4% (I know the theoretical is 99.54... but being a realist as we all make mistakes..)

Slot Club Cash Back 0.1%

Value of Welfare checks hard to determine, this is where I need to know how much play generates how much in monthly benefits. I am also aware that Food Comps of Value are given for play thus I feel with the monthly mailers, birthday offers, hotel offers if your action gets that high, including comps the return can be over 100%. Can anyone break this down as to how much play would be minimally required to get to 100%.. For example if you play
2 visits a month (they usually send out 2 cash coupons each month, each good for a separate 11 days in that month) and play about 6 hours each time at 25 cent JOB at lets say 600 hands/hour (I can play faster but I need to take a leak, or get something to eat, or answer the phone..etc, etc thus this average rate) thus figuring 6,000 hands x $1.25/hand = $ 7500 which gets $7.50 cash back plus comps worth...(my guess is this play would get at least one and possibly 2 buffets - buffet normally $20.99 + tax but discounts for various tier levels) . Thus am assuming $7500 coin in, loss of about $45 with the food comps knocking that out and the welfare checks (figuring 2 @ $10 for this play level) thus making $1.75 /hour but any extras from drawings, walk around goodies they pass out, might raise this a little. Is this analysis good, or feel free to improve on it..Thanks

If you really want to try and break even at Barona, play 2-pair joker
poker. That bank of 25 cent machines you're referring to has 2PJW at 99.92%
return, or at least they did the last time I was there (roughly a year
ago). Slot club cash back is more like .05% if you're playing video poker I
believe, so it's still not >100% unless you factor in mailers, but it's
certainly the best I've found in SD county and Barona offers the nicest
casino overall. In any case, it's miles ahead of 99.5 JOB as well as being
more fun to play, IMO. Some say it's a trickier game to learn, I can't
speak to that since it was the first one I truly studied. Had I been used
to other games I might have found it difficult, but I had only played
casually before and in my opinion the strategy is no more complicated than
other games, if perhaps not as intuitive.

Good luck.
