Note: I used to play a lot of 50 play NSUD, and inside straights are
about the most aggravating hand to get on these machines. They show
up fairly frequently, and they are sure losers in 50 play mode, since
you'll never get enough straights to make up for the 250 coin initial
bet (8 or 9 straights out of 50 is typical). >>>
I tell beginners that 2/3 of the time all you want to do is hit a single or
hope for a walk. The other 1/3 you'll see a ball that might go for extra
bases.
If you can just stop swinging for the fences on every pitch & concentrate
when it matters, you just might be able to beat 'em.
Remember .300 is a good batting average!
