I have addressed most of Alan's questions in previous posts. To review, my bankroll for all gambling is sufficiently large that I am not going to go broke playing positive expectation 25-cent video poker. I don't know what my risk of ruin is, but it's gotta be millions to one. I am ahead lifetime.

Alan evidently doesn't find 25-cent video poker very exciting. I personally find it strange that anyone gets excited playing $1 or $5 video poker, but doesn't get excited playing 25-cent video poker. I don't play a lot of video poker, and when I do, it's gotta be positive expectation. Larger denominations are generally not positive unless you play 40 hours a week for rebates and top tier cash back and usually not even then. The idea that I would give money to a casino by playing higher denominations because I need to be excited is completely alien to me. I stopped getting excited about gambling when I was 16 or 17.

To answer the cogent question, I don't use win goals or loss limits on positive expectation machines because I'm playing positive expectation machines. What is the mystery? I stop when I'm tired or have some other reason for stopping. I'm not going to feel better about myself because I won some money; I'm not going to feel worse if I've lost some money. So why would I use win goals or loss limits on positive machines?
