Reply To: Best time of day to hit and run.

Heading out again today. There’s an RV park near the casino, so I can charge my car and catch some sleep before driving home on Sunday. That gives me a full night to play—probably splitting time between scouting the games and sitting at the Poker tables. They do have table games too, but my Blackjack isn’t sharp enough to test out yet, and the heat isn’t worth the risk. I might poke around for some advanced table-game opportunities, but honestly, I’m still a rookie in that area.

There’s always a trade-off. I’ve got Poker rooms closer to home where I could grind out $20–$30 an hour. But right now, chasing slot plays feels like less of a slog—less stressful than hours at a Poker table, and more novel.

That said, I feel like I need to clear at least $500 on an average weekend night to make the time and travel worth it. Last weekend, one lucky play saved my night, but I also found more opportunities—and learned I jumped into a few too early. Still climbing the learning curve. Maybe $500 isn’t out of reach.
