How do you know when you've played your bankroll through once?

1 April 2012

Frank,

I enjoyed your article in the recent issue of Strictly Slots regarding money management. I am going to try that next time I go to the casino but had two questions.

1) Would this work for video poker as well? I assume it would but you would probably have to slow down or figure approximately how many hands per hour you play.

2) My most important question is how do you know when you have run your original bankroll through once if you keep hitting and it is increasing? Maybe I am just not getting that part. Thanks for any information.

Sincerely,
Mike

Hi Mike:

As Jerry "Stickman," the video poker expert for Casino Player always cautions: When the casino has the edge, it is best to play slow. If you have the edge over the machine, which is possible on some machines, play as fast as you can while still playing accurately.

If you are making money on a machine that is great but you can still use my technique. Figure how many decisions you will have in a minute and then in an hour and play that many decisions. It won't matter how much you win or lose. Just keep the count! If at the end of your playing time, you are still ahead, then take a portion of the win and keep playing, using the same principles as I've outlined.

For your letter, I am giving you a free one-month subscription to my private members-only website at www.goldentouchcraps.com.

All the best in and out of the casinos!
