I have never nor would I ever play for a $1000 win when starting at quarters. When playing 25c thru $2, my win goal is $50. When playing a five level 25c thru $5, it's $100. Are you REALLY paying attention? OK, good. THE WIN GOAL IS FOREMOST A FUNCTION OF THE LOWEST DENOMINATION TO BE PLAYED, then to a lesser extent, the highest. Ever see that before?
Now to the dumber comment. First, when did you make up that I've ever used a $50,000 bankroll? When I played professsionally, it was $171,600. When I hit this recent winner, I said it was $30,000. At all other times since retiring, it's been anywhere from $500 to that one time $30k. I haven't played since. And about that $100 machine you're so Infatuated with? Use your head. Think "45%...45%...45%". Are you there yet? Now, think "required bankroll". Take your time, the machines can wait.
