    Ted, I hear you. It seems to me to be less volatile than UX 3-line. In comparative sessions, same money, I always seem to be able to play longer on UA. Also, I have not had any of the big outcomes yet in UX, all the while three nice outcomes in about 6 sessions. Played UX same six sessions and only got a 4AWAK for $2k. But when it's dry, it's dry for sure!

    Very high indeed! I've noticed the past few trips to my local, I don't start hitting on this game until I'm at least 6k deep. I've already given back close to the 42k I won on it at the start of the year. I feel this is a game you either hunker down on until you hit a decent multiplied hand, or just take stabs at it.

    I have been taking the random stab approach... just checked my stats and I've taken 12 shots in 2017 ($500 - $1,500 each), with only one winning session, and a total loss of -$5,500 on $45,000 coin in. I almost never even get any play out of my money, most sessions are 5-15 minutes till bust out. To put in perspective against other variants, I have an overall loss of $50,000 (it's been a rough start to the year) on $2,500,000 coin in (ok, maybe not that rough, I'm willing to consider that maybe I play a tad too much). I'm sure the numbers would smooth out eventually if I really put in the volume, but it's a scary proposition given how fast this game chews through your bankroll.

    Ted, I feel the stab approach is the only way to play these kind of machines. I also play your $500-$1500 and given the price per spin, consider that a stab. Like all these games, luck has to be with you. I also switch games very very often. I have found that to work well(DDB>TDB>DB). I laugh with my wife about the "welcome" hands. If things slow, I just switch to a new game and often get some good hands and then back again. No method to the madness, just a feeling. As we all know in these two games there can be slow periods and it just feels good to switch up. I'll put another picture up on $5 single line TDB 4AWAK for $20k a few weeks ago. On $5 single line I always do $500 and move machines. Switch games if not getting good play. Start at highest variance and work my way down until I hit or bust. Not fool proof, but been good to me.

    I had to insert this "special" royal.

    The reason it was is it was the first time I found a real advantage play that i was able to take advantage of successfully and truly win on.

    I know it's an 8/6 JOB game, and it was the best I could find on this machine. But here's the thing- at this "local" casino of mine, if you play VP on a machine that also has Keno on it, you get the same points as if it were a slot machine- 1 point per $10 coin-in versus - 1 per $20 on a VP only game (I hope they aren't reading this). The paytables are actually usually better on the Keno ones too.
    So I then stumbled upon this machine one day in the HL room and played a little and noticed I was racking up points real fast. There was some mistake in the machine and it was giving out 10x points (both tier and playable). So I did the math and it was giving me an extra 2% payback in slot points, plus helped me increase my freeplay offers and got me to a higher tier level. If you look at my points it thinks I cycled $5090 through it so far but was only $509.
    Basically a 100.393% return not including the extra freeplay, etc.

    Sadly a week after I got this I went back and the machine was disabled, and they figured it out, so party was over but I kept my points and my $4K.

    Definitely need some luck, might give it a try again this weekend at Paris, the one and only place I've won on this game so far... quick stabs at $5 single line are a good idea too, the payoff is huge if you actually hit.

    That's the dream hand... wonder if they will pay it all in cash. Is there a limit where they force you to take checks or tickets? Or can you negotiate with them on a jackpot that big? Is $400,000 enough to make them consider cutting deals to avoid the cash hit? Like say you'd be willing to take $450,000 in free play instead? Or $800,000 of free play that can never be cashed out (even the winnings)? That sounds crazy, but if you're going to play anyway, is there really a difference?

    Yeah, it also includes a $24k win at Graton... I feel like I've had terrible luck this year, but didn't realize I was already over $2.5m coin in. Have to ease up or even running at theo will tap out my bankroll.

    The biggest cash handpay I've seen is $500k. He got the 1000 credits on $500 Top Dollar. He subsequently lost everything hours later. Him and his buddies were just feeding a whole bank of high denomination machines.

    I guess we'll let you join...
    I'm sure cosmo will pay in cash if requested. Hell the top grossing casinos in Missouri gross about a half a million on slots/VP per day. I'm sure cosmo can afford it...

    Ugh, that just makes me sad.
