Not setting the denomination of play is also a factor, because as I pointed out earlier, the player could start out at a high denomination and then after hitting something big could switch to penny VP playing one coin per hand for the balance of the million hands (or deals).
Agreed. Play a $100 machine first and make a full house on the very first hand then switch to 1¢ machine and play the balance of hands. The more hands played at once also lowers variance.

Either way, no matter who wins, it doesn't prove squat.
