Let's Talk Volatility

[tee2green]

One thing I do is play some of the aristo's Kenny Style. Black out the last row and kick up the bet and hope to land something in that one lit square....I have done ok like that never hit the big one like Sharron did in KC but it still has the possibilities.

I think I'm probably middle of the road with volatility.

What I do know is @CPT better trademark the phrase "Kenny style" before someone decides it's a good name for some new sexual position.

Prefer to go for high volatility a d also know what machines have been good to others and myself in the past and gravitate towards those. Also some of the newest ultra volatile has a damn long dry streak. It is best to be in the right place at the right time to strike big on those.

Hmmm I have to think about this one, I'm think my gambling style is more volatile than the slot machines haha. I'm all over the place, you might just want to use me as the poster child for what not to do. I love the possibility of the big wins on the volatile slots but I hate losing my money fast because I would like to extend my entertainment time. I was lucky at Aria playing Samurai (ww clone) at $1 per spin and played quite some time. I think the only reason I played at the bet level is because I have seen TAB do well. Of course I didn't have the same luck he did but I did extend my playtime and cashed out ahead. To be honest, I try not to think about it- I just try to play games that I think are fun like 88 Fortunes and Gold Pays. We won't even talk about the crazy things I do on HL machines :-)

I'm down to playing only 3 games, Buffalo, WW (any version of the four), and Triple Strike reels.

All are high volatility.
Konami, WMS, and Bally can blow me!

I completely understand where you're coming from.

At my local, I'm down to just WWII. Many times that's the only machine I play.

I have to be honest and don't really know what machines are what, lol. I just kinda play whatever I like or I play machines that I see some of you guys play and win big on. I will try just about any machine but my favorites are buffalo stampede and the babies.

Ok, so the Penguins (especially Darrell) have looked at volatility from about every angle...and we're still not sure what's what! Our primary goal at any casino is to play as long as possible on the least amount of BR while earning as many TC's as possible. We aren't ones to chase big jackpots or handpays and never play progressives, so I don't know if our thoughts are relevant to your question. Lately we've started playing more reels because of the possibility of better payouts, but the first thing we look at is the highest payout on a machine. The higher that is, the more volatile the machine...our reasoning is that in order to be able to pay more (a hand pay) for 'the big one', there have to be fewer of the lower line hits. That being said, on the lower top-payout reels, we think there's a better chance of the mid-range line hits, which can still be enough to let us walk away ahead. Of course, every machine can go hot or cold on any given day LOL! Is this the way to look at volatility?

I'm playing Buffalo and 50 cent reels right now, but usually only $2 max. I like the high volatility slots and find it more exciting. This also takes a bigger bankroll, so I have adjusted by not going as often.
