Lucky Larry's Lobstermania Deluxe — AP Overview
AP Checklist
- Start with the fast scan: Progressive ≥ 95% of MHB
- I recommend memorizing the playable numbers for the bottom progressives since those are what you will be chasing the vast majority of the time. The meter needs to be at least 95% to be profitable, so a quick way to do the math is to take 10% of the progressive, cut it in half, and then subtract that from the MHB amount. For example, 10% of 60 is 6, cut that in half to get 3, then subtract that from the initial 60 to get the playable number of 57.
- The top (largest) progressive is something that you will rarely (if ever) chase. It will lock you up for many hours and it’s just not super profitable (especially on the lower bet levels) unless you find it extremely high. I’ve seen other APs spend hours chasing the $200 on a $0.50 bet. They might have walked away with a $10 profit. That said, it could still be good for card building purposes.
Exit Rule
Walk away after the progressive you're chasing hits, or if the meter drops below the playable percent.
