I see, reality consists of only what Money sees with his own eyes. Nothing else exists. Did you consider that the team may have found greener pastures? Just because the progressive at Rincon might be slightly positive does not mean it is the best play on the planet.
In any event, the experience of one person or one team does not change the math. Sorry if you can't understand such a simple concept.
To be honest, I put a lot of weight in what I see. I was told the "team" took a big hit over those three outings. The $70K was won by a guy from Vegas, the $50k was one by a lady from San Diego who kept playing and about an hour later hit another royal for about $21K. I hit the 37K just after they checked in and were walking through the high limit area to check out the meter on the progressive.
I guess this particular team was on ... what would you call it... the wrong side of variance? I guess Ive been on the wrong side of variance too since Ive now played more than 92,000 hands of VP this year without a royal.
Anyway, I look forward to reading Frank's response about playing for a progressive when a team cannot lock up all the seats and the progressive could be hit from a non team member. I'd like to know if that affects their willingness to play machines with such a bad paytable as those at the M.
edited to add: Do me favor, Arc, let Frank tell me his answer. He is a team player, organizer. I want to know his feeling about this. There's nohing to debate or argue here. If he's willing to accept the risk that his team won't hit now that the M has added ten more seats and he's playing a poor paytable, I will accept that as his way of doing business. He knows best -- it's his business. I'm just curious. Or course Arc, you know all the answers so you are curious about nothing. And I don't recall you saying that you played or organized teams either.
