Great quotes.
I think the best answer is to try the triple play and the fifty-cent-ers. If
you can do that and are comfortable, then try going on.
I am still a quarter player who dabbles in those higher hands, and can only
do so for a short time, as I know my limitations...and my bankroll 
Best of luck-and stategy!

we go to vegas 3-4 times a year - play vp and blackjack. i count
cards at blackjack and have absolutely no problem betting $50 a
hand
when it's warranted. i know basic strategy for video poker and
play
it well for a couple of versions. i have always played 25 cent vp
and here is my question: why can't i go up to $1 vp? as above, i
have no qualms about putting out $$ when i need to but for some
reason i cannot get myself to play a $1 machine. i'm not sure
whether i play too fast or what??? have anyone else ever had
this
