But there are times when hitting a jackpot ends a play, such as a
progressive. The duration of a play being unchanged, and not being
concerned with fluctuation, max EV is fine. It has the virtue of
simplicity. Deciding how much to weigh duration and how much to weigh
value can be difficult and is more complicated. If you were playing a
single flush attack machine, would you play as aggressively for the
flush when the light is on as the next flush jackpot indicates and
then play as conservatively for the flush when the light is off as the
value of the next flush indicates? If you had a coupon for an extra
pay for a particular hand, but it was only good for one jackpot, would
you incorporate the extra value of that hand into your strategy?
