408,500 hands without a Royal. The session was OK though. Quads on job and joker kings came in about on schedule so with the Martingale Clone, I was able to hold my own. No deuces quads this time. Played a little Double Down Stud near the end of the day and caught a Wild Royal on Deuces wild. Not a lot of coin in on that one, but it paid well anyway. Many of the remaining crew of vp players are starting to keep track of their Royals too. So far I am in the lead with the worst record by far. Several are right on schedule with Royals hitting between 40 and 50 k hands. A couple over 140k, but nobody even close to me. The Aces quads still seem to be hitting well for everyone. Unfortunately, I don't play the games where they count for much. I hit quad Aces on job twice yesterday. One final interesting point. Talked to a couple of employees in the know and told them it seems like vp has loosened up a bit the last 2 weeks. Without giving specifics they said. Well, a lot of people are worried about not hitting their tier level. The Rating period ends this weekend. Seems like they did something to temporarily get people to increase their play. No specifics, but it has me wondering again about the true or adjusted rng programs. For anybody who cares, Mohegan Sun has some decent comp benefits for level 3 players. You earn regular points and in addition, get 800 choice credits every month. They also expiere monthly. You can use some of those for free play, rooms, shows, lounge access, or the buffet. Rooms are greatly discounted or comped. With nice weather around the corner, might be a nice side trip for some of the gang. Let me know if you guys are in the area. Good luck and health to all.

Hope you don't catch up to me. Hoping to break the streak tonight but who knows. I should play one nickel job where I would win $ 12.50 for the Royal. That might break it for sure.

I hope your right not a record I want break. Maybe we both hit it tonight I will be at it in a couple of hours. So hears hoping.

Well another 6,000 hands new total 277,000 hands no royal got dealt 4 to it 2x. Did I mention this is 99% single line. 277k is crazy. Would that be the same odds as getting 7 in one day? As if that's ever gonna happen lol. Hope you had better luck.

Recently back today from another marathon. 416,000 hands on a single line game without a Royal. Not counted here is 3 hours on a 20 line spin poker deuces game also with no Royals. This is unbelievable. I did catch 4 deuces quads on the spin game which ended up even for that segment. The Maringale clone method on job bailed me out because I caught a few job quads with plenty of quarters in. About even for the trip. I did see 3 Royals hit by other people that sat down and hit within 20 minutes. Funny, none of them are regulars. 2 hit without player cards in. 2 hit on job and one on ddb. Also people are hitting Aces quads with kickers like crazy. Will see if this continues after April 1st when the tier rating period is over. I suspect the premium hands, quads, deuces quads, and 5 of a kind with joker will taper off. If that does happen, it lends even more credit to my and many others theories about a managed rng program in thest machines. PS...I also played a little DD stud Deuces wild and caught wild royals 3 times on that game. Still ended up even though on that game because you get dud streaks into the 35-45 hands straight on that game. I think most of you don't have that game in the rest of the country. It only returns about 98% or a little less, but you can play twice as many hands in the same amount of time. If you manage your money right on this game, you can do quite well sometines with the primium hands. Finally, I no longer play Mult-Strike poker. Just too streaky for me. Does not work well with Martingale clone method like it does on job, deuces, or joker kings. Good luck and health to all. Hope nobody catches me or comes even close to this Royal situation.

426,000 hands resulting from another 2 day Marathon. The only positives were deuces quads 3 times which kept me close to even. Of course I also was dealt aces quads with a kicker twice on the deuces wild game.

Switch to TDB, Olds, and you won't need RFs when you're catching AWAKs.

I think I will do that. That just may make the Royal come in. Or I will never see aces again. I know the strategy, but I can start on a nickel game to get my feet wet. I am tired of standing knee deep in pond water on the other games.

430,500 hands. Another wipeout. Semi marathon session. Tried a little tdd, deuces wild, job. As a last ditch effort, a little Double Down Stud deuces wild. Never ahead on any game. As a lark, put my last 20 in a 1/2 cent machine. One of the older types. Probably has an 83% player return rate. Got ahead on that machine and cashed out a dollar and two cents ahead. And as a final whooping to this mis adventure, my right front axle nearly let go getting off the exit on the way home. Luckily, I have a really good local mechanic within walking distance from the house. He finsihed up the car today with a remanufactured unit. Not bad by today's standards. $ 263- parts and labor. This is the second replacement on that side. The car is entitled though 287k on the clock and it is just about all original. Stick shift, roll up windows, no power steering. My kind of car that still gets 40 mpg on the highway. Car drives fine now and after I cleaned out the throttle body and the computer adjusted itself, back to nice smooth idle too Now I have to really think for a minute. We just started a new tier cycle. Machines were hot except for the Royals for me for the last 2 weeks. People hitting all over the place. Now there is no incentive for the casino since it is the beginning of another tier cycle. Machines were ice cold throughout the casino. Hmmmmm!!!
