Awesome, thanks for the heads up! Game shows are making a comeback (though Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy will always be solid), along with 500 Questions on ABC and Monopoly Millionaires Club on GSN. I hope they keep updating the app with new questions on the Apple and Google Play app store.

What I have trouble with is hitting the button at the exact millisecond
so RNG spits out the card or cards I need to complete the
premium hands. Yeah, that pesky impediment kills all of us and our visions of sugar plums!And it is frustrating as hell when I see
others playing not using optimal strategy and hitting 4 oak's left and
right. Yes! I keep hoping they continue playing and go down the tubes. Most of these lemmings do like clockwork.

  Does the poll reveal if the same ISP address is being used to pump up the numbers?

 would not surprise me, if that was the case. or, just another example of uninformed voters.

Polling is also by individual casino. Current top three are Foxwoods, Mohegan, Borgata. Las Vegas has ten in the top twenty. Highest is Red Rock, at six.

made a overnight trip to AC about a week ago, and one might find the results interesting. first casino, first machine, first bet on single line, quarter machine, win $500. play about 75 more minutes, moving from machine to machine and losing on everything, win $1000. play a little more, do not do well, move to another casino. play a number hours there, never hit anything, go to another casino. next casino, same bad results.  in 75 minutes, i was up about $1300, went the next 15 hours of gambling, never got anything, end up losing over a grand. i had taken a junket trip, from the time i left the house, airport, wait, fly, bus to get to casino, took about 4 hours. first 75 minutes very exiting, end result, the same as most all AC trips. i consider my self somewhat disciplined, but not enough to go sit in my room, walk the boardwalk for 24 hours, while i wait for the plane to leave. had not played for a couple of weeks, so playing just a short time had not satified my VP addiction.  there are advantages to not having a casino close by, it limits your play. but, this is a time when not being able to leave cost me. i would like to say his is the only time this has ever happened, being up and end up losing, but that would not be truthful.

Notes, what a disaster! Did you also have a -$1900 two day trip earlier? Hate to remind you. I'm quite familiar with that pattern. I seem to always do gangbusters in the first hour or two of play. I am a day tripper, and hour three is absolutely deadly. It's gotten to the point where I now plan evening events at home to ensure that I leave by mid afternoon! Going tmrw. Hoping for fun and token profit, great weather. You may have to redeem the white tickets for a check in the future. Addict proof.
