I realize if you have an advantage machine and if you are really good, and if you play really fast with accuracy, in a fixed period of time your wage (dollars per hour) might be higher.
But it's hard to find advantage machines, and usually they are 25 cent, so what are we talking about $10/hour? Wouldn't McDonald's or a retail store be an easier way to earn $10/hour?
I also appreciate you can earn the "perks" by churning more money through quicker, but if you go at the rights time, or are the right demographic, it seems Vegas at least has lots of perks. Just going on a Sunday night rather than a Saturday could save $50 to $100 depending on where you are staying for the same room.
How "fun" is it to actually play at that 500, 800, 1,000+ hph? Or is just about bragging rights? Is anyone else on this forum in favor of slow and easy? >>
Frankly, it's a little surprising to me to see this kind of message from someone frequenting VPFree. I expect that most of us play VP only if we think we can get an advantage from it. That could be monetary profit, or it could be only earning free rooms and meals. These days, the monetary advantage doesn't solely or even usually lie in the base expectation of whatever game one is playing. To me, the "fun" of VP lasts half an hour, maybe. After, that, I just want to get through it as quickly as possible.
If you're playing with an advantage, then you want to be able to play as fast as possible, to get as much coin in as possible during the time you have available. Or if you're aiming for some target amount of coin in, you want to get it done in as little time as possible, and get on with life.
