Whenever you are playing any kind of machine including video poker you can
score much higher or lower returns than the long term average in the short
term, so yes when you get on one of those machines you just enjoy the ride
until you determine that it's over. That's why the machines are truly
random, anything can happen, and your results can do a 180 faster than you
can sometimes comprehend.

That is why they talk about getting a good machine?!

I agree, when it comes to these machines they are still slots and your
results will be really random and all over the place. I figure that the
skill factor would work in your favor as a tie breaker, and not much else.

Don't discount the variance factor for these machines ...
A few weeks ago I played in a "winner takes all" elimination format
tournament on these machines, with a total of three rounds.
In the first round I had the highest score among the 43 attendees (high
value tournament). In fact, my score was 20% higher than the competitor with
2nd highest score..
I approached the second round with a certain amount of confident swagger and
was promptly put in my place as I received the 2nd lowest session score.
Every balloon hit was a 1000 or 2000 pt dud (out of 5000). And I rarely
connected with significant hits on any of the spins.
"Sensory overload" shouldn't be much of a factor once you're familiar with
these machines (unless you've just polished off your third drink in the last
hour ;)

You might have missed some stuff. Some of the tournaments don't have rules
about helpers, helpers can be useful for the stuff you might be missing.
Sensory overload is definitely part of the tournament.
