I'm sure the answer is yes LOL

I have an upcoming trip to Vegas and will be seeing my nemesis $1 denom 88 fortunes machine. I'm thinking about playing 10 spins at $88 dollars. I have $400 in Freeplay so $480 would be my investment.

Yes - I can answer my own question but I definitely am insane....

why not cant hurt what is $480 anyways it will give ya a good chance to get the bonus and an epic handpay!
i would do it if i ever got fp from venetian LOL

i think i looked at paytable and i think you have to bet either the one level below 88 to be elegible for the top jackpot.

$480 my money plus $400 Freeplay = $880

The major or grand would be beautiful. At this point I have never been able to get the pot to close. Mini is $1k worse case is I can get my money back with the mini.

I thought about $68 which is one level below - that would give me about 3 more spins with the same BR.

I will try to get a video if I can but it will be tough since those machines are right by the front. But 10 spins can go quick so I might be able to get away with it before I get caught.

OMG. Not bad at all. I've been doing that for a month now concerning my Tahoe trip and my Sept Vegas trip. Im gonna dedicate $200 or $300 of my fp to a $25 HL machine at Palazzo and do 4 or 6 spins. See how it goes. Hope you win!!!

Really I have played this machine with the pot overflowing for almost 2 hours @$18 per spin and that damn thing would not close. I will even be just super excited to catch a big line hit or bonus during my 10 spins.

Even better - get the bonus and close the pot during the bonus while I'm still using the FP!

But really just based on playtime and coin in.

My opinion of this game is that when it starts to play it is generous but... It takes awhile to get there. In my experience I've never had this game pay out until I've spent some time on it.

Hi GG,

I'm with the majority in saying go for it and hoping for a big win early on.

At $88 a spin, that's definitely insane...but our kind of superb insanity!

Best of luck!

This has been my experience also. This one's been more of a sit and churn away one for me. But I've had a couple of times where it started paying right away. Sometimes it seems like playing a higher bet on these wakes the thing up. But not always. And I don't have any experience with the HL ones....just the ones where 8.88 is max bet. With this one, I think you've said that $88 is the smallest bet to qualify for all the progressives but max is $888?
Anyway in this particular situation, where you're pretty well bankrolled and most of this is free play, I would say go for it. That's why they call it GAMBLING lol. I'm assuming that while your bankroll is 10 spins on this that you will do additional spins at this level with minor winnings? If the pot hasn't opened by 21 or 22 spins I would give it up at this level and start going down, but if you can work your initial bankroll to finance that with non handpay wins I'd keep going. For me thinking about this it's the potential for handpays that's complicating my thoughts on this because at this bet level, a win at 14x bet is a handpay, which means the machine freezes and you gotta stop for paperwork. While I know that the RNG is constantly moving at a breakneck speed I still feel in practice that machines get hot and the whole handpay process sometimes slows that down.
I would also say that if you're planning to play this machine beyond this experiment at $88, with other money in your bankroll, I would do it after this. I've bailed my ass out on these many a time by continuing to play at lower bets when I've lost at higher bets. I say other bankroll because my experience usually is that it takes up to 2x freeplay to get things moving. I've had a couple of handpays on these but most of my experiences have been either playing a lot of time at higher bet levels and being able to leave with my initial br or a small profit. Now whether I've left at that point or not is of course another matter entirely lol.
Anyway good luck!

I have played these machines many times on previous trips but usually only betting $18 consistently which only made me eligible for the mini. But I have never been able to get the pot to close. I have randomly played $88 for a spin or 2 but never 10 in a row. I have had back to back handpays playing at the $18 level. I think the minimum for all progressives is $68.

My ideal outcome would be to get a bonus and for the pot to close during the bonus.

I've only seen the 88 Fortunes so far reserved once at Palazzo HL room so it might be free, however it's just as well regarding Palazzo HL room if you don't try recording 88 Fortunes at that location because the Slot Manager there if he spots you recording will tell his slot attendants to watch out for you.

At Venetian the slot attendants especially the men have been very nice and ignored my recording. I think they want to make sure they get a tip if I hit a hand pay. However I think it's the eye in the sky that has caught me the last few trips because a woman employee that isn't even working the HL room comes out of nowhere and politely asks me to stop, which of course I do at that time. This has happened the last 3 trips and I think they send someone not from the HL room because that way I'm not upset with the employees working in HL. i think you will be fine and likely not get caught because you won't be recording for a long period of time and won't have friends with you that draws the attention of the security cameras. Good luck, hope you win big on 88 Fortunes!

That's too bad.

Yep, I wish what the slot attendant had told Jason was correct. I have several vids lately where you can hear them tell me to stop recording at Palazzo and Venetian, though of course I just take a break and then start up again, but it is discouraging and one of the reasons I've been staying at Cosmo more this year since they let us record and encourage us to share it on social media. Aria also lets us record and a lot of strip properties just ignore it with the exception of Wynn/Encore and Venetian/Palazzo. One of my friends who works at Palazzo has gone to the slot director at Venetian/Palazzo to try to convince them their ideas are outdated but unfortuantely this policy is currently coming from exec's who are in their 80's.

Thanks Diana, I'm going to try. 10 spins will go fast lol. I will just play dumb and say I didn't know if they say something.

Thanks Hope that it comes true - it is first machine on my list when I get there Saturday. If you hear that some lady passed out after she hit the jackpot - that might be me.

Non gamblers would never understand.

Truly unbelievable that I got that first handpay on spin #6 and the second one on spin #7

Since I have that check I'm guaranteed to go home a winner. That's a good feeling to have.

I will start a separate thread to post my other wins. I don't want to take away the thrills from this one.
