Best advantage play I have ever seen.

And I feel quite fortunate to have hit it.

12-28-2012 @ WinStar casino (OK)

A great hit but only about a 2% advantage.

Congratulations on a nice win

You are correct, and it was the biggest positive play I've ever seen.

For one thing, rarely does one see a Progressive with 8/5 BP. I knew the rf had to be over $5600 to make it positive. So when I sat down and the rf was $9030, I was pretty sure I was looking at a very good thing.

At $9030 - it was 102.07%
When it hit at $9270 - it was 102.22%

It was tied to a bank of about 20 machines, and I was the ONLY one playing!! If this had been in LV, you would've had to beat them off with a stick.

I played over 8 hours with an investment of only $60.

WOW, nice find and hit.

2% is pretty strong; even better if you have the fortitude to stick it out and play with no competitors on the bank.

Goes to show you that some good plays still exist....you just have to hunt more and kick over a few rocks to find them!

Nice!

Great score. Although in decades past it was not unheard of for dollar royals to top $15K!
Not today though for sure.

That is a nice hit! And just before your taxes may go up in a couple of days!

The only Royal I ever saw that was larger than that was at the Stardust when my GF hit it for $12,380 on Christmas Eve in 1998. A few months later at the same Stardust, the jackpot also was over $12000 when it got hit.

Actually it wasn't how large the Royal was that amazed me, it was the games available to obtain it!

Besides my game of choice (8/5 BP 99.17%), you could play NSUD (99.73%), JoB (99.54%), DB (99.11%) or DDB (98.98%). Then add over a $9K royal, and we were "pootin' in tall cotton!"

I've probably seen larger Royals, but the paytables to obtain them were not in that stratosphere.

How did any sharpie misss that play?

JoB at full pay and a progressive at $9,200!

People would camp out at machines in Vegas for a play like this.
