Relearning lower rolling ways

[DK528]

I totally agree with this (for my play at least). I found myself drawn to the 3 reel babies in KC and spent way too much of my winnings playing at the $5.28 and $8.88 level because of the potential. After that I avoid them like the plague because of the temptation.

For me, I end up playing higher bets at M&Gs because I save M&G BR by not spending much at the locals. My trips to the locals are mostly about seeing if I can turn minimal FP and maybe $100 a trip into additional BR for the next M&G. I'm most comfortable at max $2 machines but at a M&G will also go as high as $4 bets and an occasional $1 video slot $9 bet if I'm ahead. At last year's AC M&G, I got so much play all weekend from that TW at Harrah's betting $1.60 and that was so much more fun than having to invest hundreds into a machine at a higher bet only to get a nice win that only brought me back to even.

I say do what makes you happy Dina and is economically comfortable. You're a smart woman and I don't think you'll ever put yourself in a position where you find yourself in serious trouble.

Thanks, Ida. Yeah, I need to switch my mentality for my visits to the local, if I continue to go. On the one hand, I don't want to but on the other, want to "practice" lower betting. But yeah, I'm not concerned (yet) about it being a problem just want to ease up and looking for tips.

@DK528, I keep saying I am going to play what I consider to be midway bets (1.50-2.00) and no more than this but I always end up increasing my bets.

Personally, I never get any good hits playing $1.00 or less, whenever I try it I feel like it is just a slow bleed. I feel like others, bet what you are comfortable playing with the BR you plan on taking when you go to the casino.

Exactly, BB. It's the creeping-higher bets that I want to curb. I'm fine betting higher if I plan to but don't like it when I say I'll bet $1.50-3 and then start betting more.
