Hello everyone,
Happy New Year!
I will be going to CT in January. Normally when I am there, I have about $100 to blow on
video poker. I usually play Deuces Wild at Mohegan Sun. I know the paytable isn't very
good but I can usually play for a longer period of time. I tried Pick 'Em last time I played
and it was like cash hemorrhage, watching my $100 get gobbled up in about 30 minutesl!
Pretty frustrating, considering it took me about 2 hours to find the @#$*!! machines!
This time, I will have $400 to spend, courtesy of my first ever royal flush this week at the
Hollywood Slots in Bangor. (10 cent Deuces Wild machine). My question is, if you have a
$400 bankroll, what game would you recommend I play?
I prefer the atmosphere of Mohegan Sun to Foxwoods, but I would be willing to go to
either. I have the Frugal Video Poker tutorial software so I can practice up on whatever
game I plan to play. (Although there seem to be a lot of inconsistencies in the software.)
With a $400 bankroll, would I have a decent chance of not just watching my money go
down the drain with the 25Cent Pick 'Em game the way it did with my $100 bankroll? Hey,
at least I know where the machines are now, so I won't have to spend 2 hours looking for
them.
I could try the JOB $1 machines, if I can find them. I seem to have much better luck when I
practice that on my tutorial software. It seems much easier to control the "bleeding" with
that machine, as opposed to the hemorrhage factor of "Pick'Em". However, I have NO idea
where to find those machines, I realize they are in the bars, somewhere.
Or maybe the 25 cent Bonus Poker would be best?
$400 is a lot of money to me so while I realize there is a good chance I will not come out
ahead, I would also like to not lose any more than $200 on one outing.
I would appreciate whatever insights you more experienced players might care to share.
Thank you!
Best wishes,
Cathy B.
