I can't speak for other players. Others may have similar observations about cycles on "new" machines, just like I do, except others may reach different conclusions than I do about what we are seeing.Tedlark wrote: ↑Sun Jul 19, 2020 5:59 pmDougJ, I have made several posts over the years about players who may think that something is wrong when they are losing but are these same people thinking that there is something wrong when they are winning? This goes along with what olds wrote regarding longer cold streaks and stronger compressed win cycles.
I do not think something is "wrong" when I am losing (i.e. "it's rigged!"), nor do I think something is "wrong" when I am winning.
I am identifying where it is in the string, and adjusting accordingly.
In my last 3 VP sessions, for example, I'm up significantly....sessions each about one hour. Maybe my prior 3 sessions before those necessitated longer play, due to my place in the string. It's not hard to know where I am at. Sometimes, I leave within 10 minutes and go home, its not worth my time
Don't care about comps, and hurting my average theo... as I've said many times, I dont want casino kitsch, or crappy "free" food (especially now where Vegas restaurant choices are limited).
