that is false, extremely false.. a 10% house edge (slots) is a 10% house edge! it doesnt matter if the money is free! if you want to play something volatile, play double double bonus or deuces wild or something, but make sure you know how to play it! you NEVER play slots, i dont know what made you say that shadroch, and if your thinking "well its free money, so take a shot at like $1000s", that is ploppy thinking, and no different than betting systems and other ploppy logic.. also, where did you get the idea that playing something volatile = more money? it doesnt, it just means more jumping around, but what i was saying is, jacks or better is the easiest to play, it has low variance (you know more what to expect).. the problem is some vp games/machines these days have horrible paytables, and if you dont know what to look for, you could be playing like a -6% game, in which case you might be better off at a $5 slot machine, but thats only if you are extremely lazy and dont want to do 1 hour of reading on video poker and print out a strategy sheet
