Jason's Free Play Results:

[mickeycrimm]

Stopped at a few casino's to grab some free play Monday:

Casino # 1
-- $25 (I thought it was going to be $50): Played 8/5 Jacks or Better: Played 20 hands at $1.25 a play. Result: $25 Cashed Out

I prefer Bonus but bonus at this casino was an absolutely horrible pay table where it didn't pay 2x for two-pair.

Casino # 2
-- $45: Played 6/5 Bonus: 36 Hands was the goal at $1.25. Ended up around with like $57.50 and played to the next even number and cashed out at $55

Casino # 3
-- $60: This casino does not allow free play on Video Poker. I found a Rich Little Piggies game that had a well loaded Jackpot pig and 1 away from full max Red pig. The Mini pig is normally $20 but was $51, The Minor Pig is normally $40 and was $135!!!! The Maxi is normally $81. You have a very good chance of hitting the Mini and Minor so these were a great value. Unfortunately this one was on the 600 credit bet with $0.01 denomination ($6.00 per spin). Played through the $60 free play quickly as expected and popped in $100. Right away hit nearly full screen of the golden pig for something like $180 win. Had $280 in the machine and I thought about cashing out and just taking that. But I wanted to hit the pig. Played down to just under $90 and hit the Blue and Gold pigs. Sweet!

The result: $365.76 Win for just over $450 in the machine. I still wanted to hit the maxed out Red pig so sacrificed a little bit for it, and cashed out at $350 for a total of $250 Profit.

Total profit from Free Play for Monday: $330

Casino # 4
-- Stopped for a free gift (Backpack). No bets placed.

Don’t chase the red and yellow pigs when the blue pig is at reset. It’s -EV. Blue pig in the high teens is a better scenario.

Oh I agree. This was the best option I could find on slots.

I can't believe this machine was left alone!

No one should take your advice regarding blackjack or anything else, because you haven’t proven to be an expert. Literally they should do the opposite of what KJ says. I’m not your sweetheart either

Last one of these I went after the blue was at something like 33 and I thought nice. Didn't hit until 49! Popped the red and the yellow along the way, then blue/red at the same time... lost a fair amount. I think you have to be real careful with these at low RTP properties.

Report for the day:

Had the Tesla so I went to Harrah's to grab my $30. Turned the $30 into $35 on Bonus Poker. Played 24 plays exactly.

Then headed over to Pala where I had $60 free play and pulled a bonus $65 free play from the Wednesday game. I had $20 of points to redeem so I had a total of $145.

I went over to rich little piggies and decided to try to chase a pig. Horrible. Broke each pig individually. Biggest bonus paid $150. Chasing the pigs resulted in costing me about $1000.

Went over to Video Poker and lost about $500. Then switched machines and put $60 in a $1 DDB Progressive that paid progressives on all 4OAK. 3rd spin hit 33332 for $800 and change. Took that over to my favorite Ultimate X Single Line and hit this:



Left with just over $2K for a few hundred profit on the day.

After that, picked up a piece of Luggage from Pechanga. My wife is planning to use it on her upcoming trip and we have no plans to return it to any stores.

Next free play worth going for is Sunday at a different casino for a total of $380 plus whatever points on my account I can redeem. I plan to play their royal progressive games that have progressives on all VP games at the bar. I'll play which ever is highest. There is another bank of TDB progressives with a progressive on the 4AWK. Which ever has the best value I will play but I'm leaning towards the ones at the bar and just playing 7/5 Bonus with the royal progressive.
