Seats added at M

Well that's a tricky question to ask of me, since as most already know I have little to no experience with solo gambling.

For near absolute safety: I recommend about a $20,000 bankroll (quarters) and at least 3 partners.

I'm sure that's a completely absurd suggestion for a regular gambler that doesn't merely err on the side of caution but glues it to your eyeballs.

I know you asked me, but how about one of you other solo gurus answer this. I'm too risk adverse and biased to give good advice on solo bankroll requirements.

<<<......Note: Many of the games reach 102.5% in the low $3,000 range if you count cash-back, meter-rise, and mailer. Why is it that everyone seems to forget that all the perks apply to these games that apply to non-progressives and the meter goes up while you play???

Perhaps it's because as "everyone" watches the meter rise, they are also watching their bankroll shrink at an alarming rate.

BTW, assuming play on one of the less volatile games, BP (96.87%) what would you suggest as a sensible bankroll to carry, to avoid risk of ruin? That is, if the player is determined to sit at the prog. bank until he, or someone else, hits the royal, on that game.

The cost per royal is about double on the Frank-n-Bob. Of course you could win a bigger royal than usual, but if you're cost sensitive you might want to think twice before kicking it up a notch. At least Frank-n-Bob and M have provided another option. Options are good. Maybe a 9-6 Double-Double-Bonus with 1% progressive would keep the 9=6 players happy?
