Re: My Journey on Video Poker
Wildman, not to worry about your $900. I found it on monday. Buffet bar machines right? or the high limit room?
$5 SF (dang w2g).

On this battle of .25c 10/6 DDB it wasn’t much of one. Hit I think about 4 quads but no premiums and never was ahead. -$300 for this one.

When it rains, it pours...
DDB teaches me yet another lesson in variance as it takes another -$300 from me. 2 quads this time, both flopped to get it. One quad 4’s with kicker after I was down about 200 to bring me to even, and a quad 9. Certainly not enough.
I will likely raise the white flag at this point and go back to the less variant wild card games where the peaks and valleys are not as high.
Cheers

Had a long battle of .25c fpdw tonight and finally hit the deuces. Was it enough? No. However, it beat the alternative as I was at one point down a little over $400 dollars. Ended up down -$100 dollars and wish the vp gods would stop the floggings and like me again 
Cheers

Just ended a unique session of .25c fpdw. Unique because for three hours (I would of played longer but starting dozing off) or about 4000 hands I did battle, did not find quad deuces nor the royal, but hit enough 4 and 5 of a kinda and dirty royals to still leave up +$70. This does not often happen for as some in the know “know”, not hitting the deuces or royal reduced the ER of this game significantly. At any rate, sure beats the alternative.
Cheers!

Got that right Daan, up $70.00 sure does beat the alternative.

Hang in there Dan. I think you will find the swings on Deuces Wild much easier to stomach. What I do and so far so good is to make sure I'm betting enough to be at least even if the Deuces hit. So far so good. The hard part for me is upping my bet too early long before I have lost a thousand quarters or 250 bucks. Good luck.

In a nutshell, quick session of .25c fpdw, manage to find the deuces this time. In for $230, cash out $330, up +$100 for this one.
