Tricon Full PM-box? Change here!

What are the odds? Seem to win about as much as you lose... BTW, the machine creates money - when you lose it goes to the jackpot, when you win it is generated from thin air. I played today and ran it up a hundred thousand and still came out ahead!

OK, I must be doing something wrong. First, I don't even know if I can *afford* to play Tricon anymore, but how are you guys winning?

I tend to lose around 6 games and win around 4, so, at the current prices, if I played I would be down almost 100k credits.

How do you win so much? Is there some trick or hint that you would not mind sharing with the rest of us? 8P

I thought I would try it, popped down a hundred k I had saved, won a couple, and immediately lost it all. I guess you just have to get really lucky. Whoever gets *really* lucky is going to be filthy rich though! I mean, six million! Whew!

Six million in the jackpot! *whistles*

The standard wager is probably over 100k now. It's getting pretty costly to play at all.
