Does Cowboy Slots’ Low Budget Method to Win a Handpay Work? 

Thanks for your comment….. I won’t watch the rest of the video. The method has not worked for me yet but I do have fun trying.

Correct!

200 credits on .25 denom is 50.00

What is the max bet on step two?

@@godisgood5038 Step 2 is after you double your initial 100 to 200, you put 100 away to keep, and you put 100 into a $1 denom machine and play one credit. So you get 100 spins and you are trying to get to 300 or at least close.

Cowboy slots tells us not to chase the jackpot. But isn’t that what his method does? His method seems to take the fun out of just enjoying the game and being surprised when you hit a bonus. I don’t have the big budget these other “giant win” videos have.

I've had those 3 reel "low volatility" slots take all my money with no line hits. 😂

@@chellyspin Exactly!! It is ALL luck. But I guess folks need to believe in something so they can feel good.

@@jefox68 cowboy slots is so against dragonlink but my biggest handpay and wins have all been from dragonlink 😆😆😆😆 These old school 3 reel slots only take my money. 🫠

Agreed. It's nice to get the bet back, but its definitely not exciting.

​@@Sammmeowher commentary is very difficult to hear for more than two mins.

One of his rules is to not chase the jackpot. But this method is exactly doing that. This just barely kept her even with nothing exciting. Almost like just killing time with diminishing returns.

😶🔫

They say to shoot for 1% bet for 100 spins, so that would be $2 bet for $200 or $3 bet for $300, but that's not what they're doing in the recent videos they post - it's not strict like that. There's one video they posted where Mike took the $100 winnings from "step 1" and put it in a $5 machine.

Exactly. I think I would have taken the $140

No, I’m pretty sure he says the first step is you either double it or walk away with nothing!! The next steps is taking your winnings and walking away, but not the first step.

The original $100 budget method says double your money or sink the $100.

@@jennifergill3795 Correct. The original video explaining the method says double or nothing, but that's not what they do on his channel now

The Cowboy Slots method says specifically to find a 5-line 25 cent machine and play all five lines

His original video says to stay on the same machine until you lose or double. He doesn't even do that now in his more recent videos.

The machines are random but still have different RTP rates that increase with denomination. This is a *low roller* method, for a player with a $100 bankroll. The first step is to try to double that bankroll, so you can keep it and move to step 2, which is to move to a $1 machine and try to double again, wagering only $100. You could just start at step 2. The point is to choose a machine that will give you the best chance of doubling and a definition that will give you enough spins to have a decent crack at it, that's all. The whole "method" comes down to choosing the low volatility machine and a reasonable denomination. I've wondered, though, if the probably of doubling your money this way is any higher than just putting your $100 on red at a roulette table.

@@ubizmo I hear u. And I totally understand the steps of this "method", but I have to be honest though, I'd never sit at 1 machine and lose a full hundred if I was on a budget. So I almost feel weary about this "method" anyway. I do agree u should play with profits and pocket your original cash if and when u win at a casino, always a good idea, and increasing as u go makes sense too, but the sitting at 1 machine till u lose it all or double it seems crazy to me. But hey, whatever makes people feel better about how they gamble, then go for it I guess lol.

@@originalrahmble Let's face it, if there were an "easy" or even semi-reliable way to double your money in the casino, we'd all be doing it. As i said, you could put that hundred on red at the roulette wheel and have a 47% chance of doubling it (in an American casino). It's like to know if the odds of doing so playing $100 on a 25¢ machine are better or worse. I suspect worse.

@@ubizmo Ya It's all a gamble. Lol

@@originalrahmble remember, the goal here is not to hit a major jackpot, it's simply to double the starting amount of $100...

Right, but the videos they post now say stuff that's completely different. The original video is over a year old. They don't even do that now. There's a recent video where he played a penny slot with a bonus feature. Go figure.

@@grandmaday9575 ah, I get it. They updated their method. Well, this video was created before the new method came out. What do folks expect? An old video to automatically include new stuff? Kinda weird.

@@grandmaday9575 but those videos with the penny slots & bonus games have nothing to do with the topic specifically being discussed here. Which is trying to double $100. THAT'S the ONLY goal here right now. The videos with the cartoony games with progressive jackpots have nothing to do with trying to double a $100 limit... 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

That's what they do on his channel, but that's not what his original video explaining the method said... He said in the video "double or nothing," but that's not what they do now

@@grandmaday9575 REMEMBER! He's not saying "Double or nothing" FOR EVERY MACHINE YOU PLAY. That specific method was simply for trying to double $100❗❗ It's clear you've forgotten that fact, because that method has nothing to do with trying to win jackpots. Why would he need to continue doing videos like that when it only takes a couple videos to simply demonstrate the whole point of doubling a max of $100?

How is she supposed to play it?

She supposed to play it if five credits was the max bet on that machine it is not because it do work

I tried and it has never worked for me. I’ll stick to roulette.

His original video says to play a 5-line 25 cent machine and play all five lines.

The method says to play a 3 reel, 5 credit machine. So, 5 credits at .25 is 1.25. Lol. What's the issue?

it was 400 credits on a 25-cent machine, which is $100.

The original video he posted over a year ago literally says "double or nothing." They don't play that way now
