IMO all Strategies fall into 3 basic categories, Grinder, Middler and Jugular.
Grinder - A system that can be used for the timid gambler who wants to maximize their time at a table and potential for free drinks. Grinding system have a low win potential and are ideal for people on a budget (scared money) or simply have a low tolerance for risk or loss.
Middler - A system that is part Grinder and part Jugular. Not TOOO many systems fall into this category but those that do typically has some type of regressive or passive press element that allows you to capture more wins while mitigating losses.
Jugular - Gambling, Degenerate chasing systems that attempt to maximize wins with no care towards retirement, kids college funds or divorce therapies.
And then we break each system down to its basic elements. Alex and I are rolling out a new system review show that will roll out every Monday right here. For the first few weeks, we will introduce the show on our YouTube channel, but ultimately the Channel and Discussion will be hosted on this website and its forums.
Here are the system features we will discuss;
On a scale of 1 to 5
Ease of Use: 1) Easy, 2) Need Math, 3) Need Worksheet, 4) Need SmartPhone, 5) Need My twitchy kid on his smartphone feeding me answers because Math is hard and my short term memory is shot.
Best Buy In: 1) $20 waiting on a slow moving buffet line, 2) $100 average buy-in, 3) $200-300 had a good week, ready to fire, 4) $500 Here me roar! 5) $1000 I am newly divorced with no kids or my kids aren't getting a dime
COMP potential 1) Just hurry with the cocktails, 2) Maybe a 2 for 1 coupon to the buffet 3) If I play like this for the next month, I am going to bring a date and impress with a well placed comp to the buffet 4) Dinner is on you Casino nemesis, 5) Next time your sending a car for me.
Win Potential 1) You won't be in enough to matter, just walk when bored 2) Broke even? Get out before it turns, 3) 10-20% Winner 4) Double Up or Lose it all 5) Gambler status. Walk with enough to pay off gambling debts.
It's super helpful for us newbies to grasp the ropes of gambling. I'm actually new on this forum, so this kind of info is gold to me! I'm with you on the Grinder approach too, safer bets definitely ease my nerves. And about those online slot sites, they're getting pretty popular. I've heard some folks talking about instant withdrawal casinos in the USA, which sounds pretty convenient. Have you had any experiences with those? I like to play it safe and not dive into too many risks. Ease of use and win potential are indeed crucial factors.
