I think Frank said he was able to play only the "older, slow machines" two at a time. The new, modern machines were fast enough that he played one at a time.

This is absolutely true, and Rob even notes this in the explanation of his special plays. They do not provide the expected return that the conventional plays offer. However, when Rob gets lucky and his special plays happen to hit, he is able to reach a win goal and stop playing. There you go Arc. I said it again for the seven hundredth time and it still doesn't get through, does it?
Alan, I posed a question to you earlier that I'll repeat here and maybe if Rob would would be so kind and respond to it as well.

We are all in agreement that the theoretical hold / EV on every machine (positive or negative) inside of the casinos is a value based upon the billions or trillions of hands /spins that the RNG generates for that machine. Agreed? Well what makes you think that ANYONE could selectively play their 'short-term' number of hands within those trillions of hands and only play the ones that put you consistently ahead? Especially on the negative EV machines? You and Rob aren't arguing math? Then you and Rob are arguing that you can be luckier than everyone else. If this can be achieved by using ESP to detect hot and cold cycles, recognizing which machines are not random, quitting while you''re ahead or not tipping the cocktail waitress I'm all ears...
