Jeff. Your conclusion is correct. I believe the book in question is,
"American Mensa Guide to Casino Gambling " by Andrerw Brisman. Their
basic premise is: If you are going to play a negative game and lose
money, you should do it as slowly as possible. The exact summation quote
is: Any time you're stuck (playing a game) below 100%, the less money
you risk the better. If it is a losing proposition, you shouldn't
expose five times your money to make it a "better" proposition"
on to state that slot club promotions may bring the return into positive
territory, and in that case you should definitely play maximum coins.
The whole discussion is on page 113 of the aforementioned book.
Interesting concept. Dick McKenna
