Couple of years ago, Ct. Mohegan Sun eliminated comp points on the $1 and above FPPE (Actually, all paytables >~98%). The points had a cash equivalent of ~.2 percent. Back in the day, people played
2 pickem machines at a time and fast. Nightoftheiguana2000 sayz "tweakers."
Last visit, saw 2 PE machine fast action several times.
But nothing like a couple of years ago. Those still doing it aren't trying to get an advantage.
There getting a buzz. A feeling of euphoria. invincibility.
Got strung out on coffee like Kramer on Seinfeld free coffee episode.
Not my cup of tea. (pardon pun)

> The main reason for playing fast is if you are in positive situation. If you are playing 9/6 JB for example with .04 in free play, the total will theoretically be over 100%, so the faster you play, the more you would theoretically win. But if you are say playing 9/6 with no free play, your theoretical win is under 100%, so no sense in playing super fast. No one (except maybe Bob Dancer) is a perfect player, and for most people, the faster you play, the more mistakes you are going to make. If the amount of your theoretical win including comps and free play (or mailed coupons) is going to be positive, then it MIGHT be worthwhile to worry about learning to play faster or playing on two machines. But the more you play, the more bankroll you'll need to. For the average player, trying to play faster to increase potential winnings is probably not worth worrying about.

This might be a better alternative than worrying about speed, because your error rate won't go up.

If you are only playing 25 cent single line anyway, just how much could you be winning per hour anyway? So increasing your speed isn't really going to do a lot anyway for most people.
