I don't think it's that difficult a concept. The paytable determines the %

payback on a VP machine. Each individual machine will eventually payback
THAT %, as long as it is in play. The 'lifetime' of the machine is
determined
by how long it stays in play.

Major correction: The paytable determines the MAXIMUM percentage payback over
an infinite number of hands. Playing less than perfect strategy on that
machine lowers that percentage.

What you wrote is total nonsense, unless you also include playing perfect
strategy for that paytable. And assume the machine in question stays in play
a LONG LOOOONG time!

Maybe it IS a difficult concept, at least for some!

Sometimes I get carried away with frugal ideas - Brad calls them my
"nutty-frugalness."

Dean and TomSki are good friends of mine and I have recommended their
software for years. Have used it myself for a long time. I told them that
I would not "put down" their work in any way when I partnered with Jim Wolf
to introduce Frugal VP software. And I am sorry it looked like I was doing
that when I answered a recent post. I meant to convey another option,
which, if you did not have both of the others, might be less expensive. But
it has been pointed out to me that this is not how it came through. I wish
I could learn not to post late at night when I am tired or when I am in a
hurry!

As for mentioning the delay of Frugal 2. I was mainly concerned that people
would order it under the impression that it would be ready for Christmas, as
I had conveyed in the past. I wanted everyone to know of that change.

I will try to be more diplomatic - and certainly more silent - in the
future. My website is in my signature block - that's enough commercial
content.
