Golden Eight - Slot Game - Chicken Session #1
Golden Eight is a nine wheel, 8 payline slot game. It offers a lot of payouts, which is what I like in a slot machine.
This is where the John Patrick slot systems really start to get interesting. For the first time, John suggests laying out a betting sequence.
The betting sequence is a preset order of bets, which do not change according to your wins or losses at the slots. It is a money managment principle, a betting strategy set out in the comfort of one's home, not amidst the passions of a slot machine cold streak.
I chose a variation on John Patrick's suggested betting sequence. I will place four bets of one unit, then move up to four bets double of the original bet, then up once again to four bets triple that of the original wager. It is a 1-1-1-1-2-2-2-2-3-3-3-3 sequence.
If I reach the end of the sequence, I start over again.
I have a 9 Naked Pull limit and a 70% loss limit in place.
But the key stipulation in Chicken is that you leave the session after you bet your bankroll. Since my bankroll today is $50, I leave the slot machine after I have wagered $50. I leave. I chicken out. No questions asked. Don't be afraid to be a chicken.
So I had a quick session on Golden Eight. On the two dollar bets, I lost, won 1 dollar, then 2 dollars, then lost on the fourth spin.
On the $4 bets, I hit $12.50, then 1, 5 and 5 dollars. At this point, I was on a roll.
It was perfect time to be on a roll, too. Because the Chicken System demanded I increase my wagers to $6.
On the $6 bets, I hit on $5, $4, $2 and $8.
I hit my $50 bet limit with one more spin at the two dolalr setting. On this one, I win $5.
So it seemed like I was winning a lot. I hit on 11 of 13 spins. But when I tallied up my total, I only came out ahead by $0.50.
Fifty freakin' cents?
Well, John Patrick says the aim of Chicken is to win a lot of small sessions. At this rate, I'm going to need to win several thousand sessions to show any progress.
Starting Money: $200 Ending Money: $200.05
