"no-mailed".
. . .
This is a good example of why you can't just look at video poker in isolation, the optimal strategy depends on the complete situation which varies by casino.
Not for me. 99.1% wouldn't have gotten me in there in the first place.
Also, it's one thing to know after the fact that Suncoast royals would nix mailers from several related properties. It's hard to know that up front.
Also, it happened my royal cycle at the Suncoast was about 20,000 hands over an 8 month period. Other casinos, my royal cycle seems to be 80,000 hands --- at least for certain periods of time. I have no idea how many royals I'm going to hit at any particular casino in the next six months.
Were I underroyaled at Suncoast --- equally probable as what actually happened --- playing the special strategy gives up half a percent needlessly. Most $2 and $5 players cannot afford to give up a half percent and still stay in business.
