Which game to play?

[Player422738]

7/5 Super DDB 98.61
9/6 DDB 98.98
9/6 TDB 98.22

I feel Super DDB may have a higher variance, so I guess DDB is the one I should play.

Which on are you most knowledgeable in?

Also, are slot club benefits identical for each?

Is your goal to have fun or to make money? If your goal is to make money, slot club benefits (including promotions and mailers) MUST exceed 1% to make any of these playable. This is possible --- but unlikely.

DDB will have fewer W2Gs than the others (depending on stakes and number of hands played --- which you didn't specify). W2Gs definitely have tax consequences --- more so after the recent tax bill than previously. But some casinos give you a bonus of sort of on W2Gs, which can shift the ranking.

The bankroll requirements are very different for these games. Are you playing for stakes where you can run out of money? If so, DDB would be your choice --- and not a particularly good choice. There are very possibly other games returning about the same amount (like 15-9-4-4-3 DW) which have a much lower variance.

How did you select these three games? Are these the only games in the casino? are there any games that return more? If so, if winning is your goal (or losing the least possible), possibly none of these games should make the cut.

Double Double Bonus is my favorite to play

Yes Super DDB has a higher variance.

Barring any other information, I would go with 9/6 DDB. Bob points out several things worth considering.

Triple something is clearly better than double something.

I'm unclear as to whether "super" makes something better than triple something.

I would have to think so. Triple Man isn't even a thing.

So here is the update.

I played on TTD single line quarter machine (9/5) (The 9/6 one is only for $1 denomination), guess what happened...

1. Hit 4 Aces no kicker twice.
2. I got dealt with 4 Aces but the kicker didn't show up on the Draw. $!&$ it!! @&$$ it!!!. So all together I got 3 4 Aces no kicker.
3. Hit 4 3s with 4, 2000 credits.

I ended up with +$1000 with $280 free play (2 casinos) + $100 my own money.

I guess I was not lucky at all coz I could draw the kicker and I could end up with +$2000.
