That is another reason why I think the casinos should keep some
decent games - because many players have absolutely no clue about
strategy - but even those players will have a vague idea of how fast
their money disappears. If they feel like their 80 quarters
disappear in 3 minutes they will likely not play that game again. If
it lasts a little longer then they might decide to feed in another
$20.
Or maybe it really doesn't matter, but when I go into casinos that
have no "playable" VP for $1 or less, there never seems to be much
action on the machines.
My recent experience like yours was sitting next to two drunk girls
playing on a row of NSUD machines at Caesars (back in the good old
days). The one who was playing got a throwaway hand and asked her
friend "what should I keep here? Should I keep the ace?" and the
other answered "yes, you always keep an ace!". That's when I felt
confident that Harrah's would keep the good paytables. In retrospect
I should have offered to help them - that might have been more
rewarding!

for a Strip casino, paytables and cashback

my definition. This yields the casino an adequate hold, since most
players (even the ones who know the difference in pay tables) will
not
come close to that.

she only was dealt a Jack when she was playing JorB, should she
hold it! When
I replied she should, she told me she was only "saving" straights
and
flushes....and then the casinos think they have to lower their
paytables.
