On the jacks game play a three SF with no gaps over a small pair and play
an open 4SF over a made straight.
This picks up the lion's share of the difference.

Subject: [vpFREE] Math help: Wynn NSUD 11/15 and JOB 6/9/90Next week I'll be in Vegas, spending one night at Barbary Coast,
then 2 at Caesars. On my itinerary will be some time on the
enhanced Wynn machines (NSUD 11/15 and JOB 6/9/90). I've never
signed up for their slot club, so I figure I'll play
around 3 or 4 hours of dollar play, & at least generate free
buffets & some future offers.Perhaps some of the math experts can help me with this. I know
there's been some discussion of strategy changes for these
games vs traditional NSUD & JOB. Since I'm so habituated
to normal NSUD & JOB, I'm happiest to play the same
strategy at Wynn if it doesn't make too much difference. So...(1) Playing $1 VP, will using regular strategies cost me more than,
say, 25 or 50 cents an hour in expectation vs perfect strategy?
Philosophical issue regarding correct play don't enter into this,
since this is a <1-day shot, & I don't at all mind just a
couple $s theo loss for the sake of simplicity.(2) If using the regular strategy IS more costly than that, are
there one or two simple strategy changes that would bring me close
enough to perfect?I will be traveling with a friend who's less familiar with VP
than I, & I'll be helping him along the way. So this in
particular is a situation where simplicity has a
virtue, & I'm clear that making the strategy easier for
my friend is worth a minimal loss of EV.Big thanks if anyone can help.
