It looks like you're playing 500 hands a day. Is this all single line? I haven't bothered with a single contest this year. I'm thinking you're in a small royal drought if it's the usual triple play game.

It is the single line monthly contest. One hundred hands limited to 5 hands a day.

355,500 and counting. Took a break from job and played Double Down Stud a couple of hours. sixes or better. Caught 2 4 of a kinds to put a dent in the job losses. Also had 2 shots both in spades on DDS at a Royal. One would have paid 5k, the other 10k. Both missed.

362,000 hands now after a long session. A couple of odd things and a couple of OK things too. Played all Deuces wild this time. Ended up with 4 Aces without deuces 3 times this trip which did me no good of course on Deuces Wild. I had 2 shots with 4 to a Royal and many with 3 to a Royal, but no dice. Ended up OK however. Got bailed out with the Martingale clone play. Caught 4 deuces with a bunch of quarters in. Should have caught them earlier in 12 hours of play, but didn't. Also we tried Refer local.com which I think is mostly on the east coast and picked up a couple of bargains on their site. Your credit card gets charged 25 bucks, but you get a voucher for 25- free play at Mohegan and a free buffet too. Since we are in Lent now, the shrimp, rock sole, clams, mussels, and oysters at the buffet were really good and very timely for us. I also saved 50 points because of the deal and I can use them on something else. We also managed some extra free play at Mohegan and some dining rewards. All in all, not a bad trip, just frustrating in that one category. Wife played also almost as long as me and no Royals for her either and I am not even counting her stats in mine. She is still under 40k hands since her last one. Weather in the east appears to be easing up just a little. Sure hope so. Good health and luck to all.

I wish I would have never seen this post cause I started counting as well. So far I am up to 248,000 hands 80% of it is single line DDB mixed in with some double deuces and some DDB triple play.   

Which includes a 12 hour session on a bank of 5 DDB progressives that was up to $7,700 at one casino and then a this past weekend at another casino the progressive was up to $7,400 on a bank of 10. I played for 2 days for about a total of 14 hours. So now I am in the "looking for it mode" and everybody knows it doesn't come until you least expect it.

368,000 hands and counting. Not a good session this time either. No deuces quads. Long streaks of dud hands on job. Also quads came in on the deuces game without the deuce, but few and far between on job play.

@DaBurglar its a 2/3 machine so it moves .05 for every 2 hands. Usually when it gets this high it is because somebody hits it playing less than 5 credits. Seen it happen many times because this bank usually hits around $5,300 on average. Granted I have seen it hit at $4011, highest I have ever seen it is $7,900. Been playing at this bank for over 11 years its a 9/6 DDB progressive.

373,500 hands now. I had 2 chances with 4 dealt. No deuces quads hit on the single line quarter game. I wish I had a pic of this hit on a 3 cent spin poker game playing Bonus Deuces wild. I never count multiple line games hands in the above stats. Anyway, I hit 4 deuces with the Ace on 9 lines on the only 3 cent game left. It paid well over 500-. Unfortunately, that went back into a single line quarter game by the end of the day. These above Royal misses are really getting to be unbeliveable. I may be close to breaking a record for all of the posters here. Maybe it has been broken already.

380,000 hands and counting and that does not include 2 hours of play on a 20 line spin poker game. There were no Royals or deuces quads there either on any of the 20 lines. Wife fared no better and she is now over the 40-43k average herself.
