Thanks to this group I am now aware of the TBP+ machines at the various
casinos (used to play 98.9% 9/6 DDB, 99.1% 9/7 DB, and 99.5% BDW). If
TBP+ is a 99.8% game, is it possible that with a casino card, say the
Isle card, that gives cash back plus those $5 or $10 coupons every
month, that the ev of the game may just tip over the 100% mark? It
would take me a long time to work through the math and I am wondering
if someone in the group has a handy formula for this. Thanks.
Cashback as Isle is about 0.33%. It takes about $15 coin in to earn a point, and you get $5 cashback for 100 points. TBP+ is 99.8% return, so add in the 0.33% and you get 100.13%. I've not figured out how they decide what to give for bounce back cash, so that might add a little more, too. The high volatility for this game means you need a big bankroll, though.
