Not taking sides in this feud. Just pointing something out and it has nothing to do with KJ. It's about the math of getting $50 in freeplay and hitting a 100K jackpot with it.Originally Posted by accountinquestion
If someone says "I've had exactly $50 in freeplay my entire life and I hit a 100K jackpot with it." Well, yeah, I would call bullshit.
But if someone said "I've run off $50 in freeplay a thousand times over the years and on one batch I hit a 100K jackpot." That would make the story more believable.
If KJ's claims are true, that 20% of his income was from video poker, and he had a partner doing the same thing, and they did it for years, then....
The classic way of running video poker/freeplay in Las Vegas is playing a slightly negative game to get the freeplay. And the freeplay makes it a positive.
If KJ and his partner were doing it the classic way then they were running off five figures a year in freeplay, albeit, in small batches, like $50 or $100.
I'm sure that $50 is not the only freeplay KJ has run off before. The number is probably in the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. So the claim of hitting the 100K jackpot is not so outlandish when put into perspective.
