- A five high Hex and a 10% return…I’d have to think that would be good enough to play.
- Right; the status of the green would be important for something like a 98 gold. If we’re assuming reset green and purple with a 98 gold, even 7.5% seems a bit low. At 10% with the same setup, yeah, I’d be in. At 7.5%, I’d want at least something on green—even mid-60s or so. I think at that number, I’d usually get it in range before triggering gold.
- Indeed.
- “…you probably will be collecting on the portion of the return that’s in the other bonuses as well as the one you’re chasing, whereas you’re unlikely to collect on a Mega while playing for a Minor.” –> This is true, but couldn’t you just as easily hit the mega and have built up the other bonuses just short of being plays? Yes, you will likely hit a bunch along the way on a mega chase, but there’s still your own building that you’ve done that you’ll then be leaving.
- Yup, I know some folks play these games a little looser than I do, so that’s fair. In general with games in that “red” category, a rule of thumb is I tend to be more conservative when I’m recommending numbers.
I’d like to echo your point of more discussion. I change my numbers and minimums frequently as I get more of a sample; I don’t think there’s any shame in doing so. No, they are rarely drastic changes, but changes nonetheless. Getting more input and a larger sample in general helps a lot.
