My Journey on Video Poker

[pokerpokerpoker]

Yeah, but what about this? Say a casino has 98% dueces, 99% DDB and 99.6% TDB. Obviously, the TDB is the "best" game in town. Assuming I can play them all accurately, I should "do better" over time with the TDB. Yet, the swings are immense.

Yeah, I should be sitting pretty with all my 99.54%. Yet here I am begging for a RF to cover the year's expected loss.

Quick post while on my last day cruising on royal Caribbean. They do have a casino on the ship. Oasis of the seas from my understanding has the biggest ship casino...I did not know for sure. But this is not a cruise ship, it’s a floating city! The vp paytables are bottom of the barrel. No surprise there. 6/5 job, 94% deuces wild, 7/5 bonus poker with two pair paying one to one (wow). So I stuck to craps with single odds making it one of the best plays and the numbers. Won $100 and decided to take it and go. Sorry, no vp this trip. But coming back to a fuller stomachs, deeper tan, and a healthy bill!
Fair winds and following seas!

   Wise move. Cruises are great, but good games are rare.

Back to battle with vp as I decided to switch it up to .25c five play double bonus (9/7/5) version. Despite hitting some quads including one quad ace and a few quad 2’s and 4’s...wasn’t enough and I made another donation of -$500 to the vp gods. Hoping for some run good sooner than later.
Cheers!

Run good came sooner as we make up for some losses tonight!
Played .25c 5 play deuces and flop 4 hearts to a royal. Needed the 10H I hit the spin and blamo hit one on line C. Vp gods show mercy. Followed it up with a quad deuce and all in all, profit +$1,005.
Much needed and appreciated.
Cheers!

Bada-bing...

We hit the ducks this session of .25c 5 play deuces. Was it enough? By a nose, yes. Started with a br of $650. Quickly went down to $300-350 where I stayed for a pretty good amount of time. I was about to resign and accept that I would have to tip back to the vp gods some of that royal money when I caught a quad deuce followed by a few lesser good hits and managed to just barely get a win by a nose, +$7.50. Crazy stuff. Also flopped 4 to a Royal twice...could not find the fifth card and one of the spins was a complete blank.
Cheers!

*Hi everyone. A quick post that we are less than 3,000 views away from the 500k view group challenge (497,065 to be exact)!*
What does this mean? I'm setting up a 500k group challenge open to everyone. The difference is, top 5 win gold memberships. Received permission to reward 3 months to 1st and one month to 2-5th. If you have gold already, it just tacks on.
So, keep current on this thread. I will give as much heads up as I can and the details. One more thing, thanks for checking out my crazy up and down journey on video poker!
Cheers!

We hit the deuces on this relatively quick approximately 40 min session of .25c 5 play deuces. Was it enough? Yes. +$50 for this one.
Cheers!
