I think these are decent estimates, although my gut feeling is that
they are on the low side.
I fired up Video Poker for Winners for a reality check. $800 would
provide roughly 95% confidence of 3 hours total play. Of course, if
that were split evenly between OP and gf, one could generally expect
to bust out well within an hour.
Again, concerning the original question re a decent 2008 play bankroll
for the game, I commend VPW to the poster. The bankroll analysis
feature is ideally suited for questions of this nature.
