[vpFREE] Re: Sometimes its the hand not the total win...

 

Just getting over a great day of football. Back to gambling info. Nice hand miss c but I would be extremely mad only getting $8800. Your expectation per line before the draw is ((35/47)x($800))+((12/47)x($1600)) = $1004.255. Your expectation for all 10 lines is therefore $10042.55. You lost over $1200 from expectancy!! But I digress. Right now for me playing Ultimate X is just looking for multipliers and playing 5 coins per line. Miss c right after your dealt straight that set up 10 lines of 8X's did you consider betting 5 coins per line instead of 10 on the next hand? It's fairly evident that the present play dominates future setting up of multipliers and you're going to be playing "basic strategy" DDB. Whether you're betting 5 or 10 coins per line your strategy would be regular DDB plays (like drawing to a pair of Aces over drawing to Aces up or drawing to a low pair over a 4 card open ended straight with no high cards) for example. The multipliers that you would set up by betting 10 coins per line are obviously going to be on the weak side (you're more concerned with the payout on this hand with all the 8 X's than the possible future multipliers). The expected payout on that hand whether you bet 5 or 10 coins per line is going to be 50 coins x 0.9898 = 49.49 coins. Is it worth betting the extra 5 coins per line to set up weak multipliers? Of course in either case the next hand you are probably going to be betting 10 coins per line. I am a pretty good math geek but I do all my calculations with paper and pencil - so my question to you computer guys is when is it right in Ultimate X with high enough multipliers to play 5 coins per line instead of 10? Of course this assumes you will continue to play. If you're making that hand your final hand of course you would bet 5 coins per line.

[vpFREE] Best VP comp club 2014 B, S, P, SP?

 

Don't expect an answer from Bob Dancer (since he's sponsored by two of the above), but I'm sure other experts will chime in.


Heading in for a few weeks next month...last year had more comped rooms than I could use (now that resort fees are tacked onto a room's price, even 20$, every comp counts). This year, especially at one of the Boyd properties, my offers have been cut way back, even though play seemed heavier than the year before. Talked to a very friendly operator, who said I was gold (as in top notch) player at another B property, but not at the above one--because I hit my one RF there last year (Her intuitive, non-professional opinion).


At any rate, B properties seem to have cut me back in most cases (the one exception noted above), so I'm considering other options including Palms, and South Point, as well as Stations, and re-considering Boyd.


For the player looking for total benefits (including comps/cashback) who might consider playing less than 100% machines for this reason only, it looks like the two groups (B and S) and two single properties (P and SP) are roughly equivalent (in that South Point has lots of machines close to 100%, but less multiplier days, for example; Stations has more multiplier days, but heard they're less generous on perks; Palms has good machines, but few points multiplier days, and they've cut back on room offers; Boyd has multipliers, but as Bob said, they seem to "back off" on their offers to lowly VP players like me)


If my rudimentary analysis is close to accurate, then I guess the place to play is where I have the most fun, which would be Palms. But of course, if I'm missing something, please inform me of my error.


Thanks, and enjoy those Thanksgiving multipliers!!!

Outstanding and immensely satisfying hit, Linda! ... but hopefully the handpay was $8800, not $8400 ;)

[vpFREE] Sometimes its the hand not the total win...

 

I've hit royals and even a couple of $5 royals, but this weekend I had a hand that really has to be rare. Playing 10 play Ultimate X quarters I got dealt a straight, which gives you 8x multiplier on the next 10 hands. Then I was dealt a 4 of a kind, 3s on DDB. No kicker so I tossed the one extra card, got only 1 kicker, and $8400 jackpot. So while Ive had higher wins, this was a beautiful hand. Of course one is never satisfied so I fantasized about dealt aces with a kicker all at 8x or a dealt royal at 8x, or ever. 12x on all hands. Still -- it was a good day!
