Preston, losing $250 at JOB dollars is going to happen a lot. H Dunbar
has a great program that shows risk of ruin for various games,
bankrolls and cash back. The program is called Dunbar's Risk Analyzer
for Video Poker or DRA.
For your situation, a bankroll of $250 and 30 minutes of play ( 400
hands) has an ROR of 24%. That means 1 out of 4 times you will go
broke.
Increase it to 1 hour of play and your ROR is 47%. The RF value
doesn't affect short term ROR. If you hit the royal, you won't go
broke. You might want to either a) rethink your bankroll or b) play
quarters.

Went to GC Sunday night and the bartop progressive was at 5,400. In
an attempt to minimize the variance I played jacks or better. Didn't
help, after dropping over $ 250 and getting only one quadI hit the
road. Some woman sittin next to me kept flippin between games and
hitting big quads. I give up and will take up old maid.
