A January to remember

Wanted to share my stats for Jan 2019. Can't really believe that 9/6 JOB did this well. I finally fought off playing other games like NSUD, and BDLX, two games I really miss but needed to see just JOB alone on it's own. Played only $1.25 bets and did play some $1.40 bet one trip at .20 level. Played 100% JOB.

Hands played 65,000 all single line. I have never tracked this other years since I was jumping from $1.25 to $5 bets and everything in between depending on what is going on promo wise.

Trips to casino: 16
Free play for the month was $1315
Royal Flushes: 5 (3 in one day)
S. Flushes: 10
Trips in the black: 9
Trips in the red: 7
Best day up $2800
Worst day down $325
Net profit $4,225 no tax forms :D

My bankroll was $500 per trip and it held no problem.

Going to be playing all weekend, got some promos going on, I could do a lock in the drawings by risking $5 bets, but going to stick to $1.25 not wanting to deal with them tax forms on hand pays. Plus just don't want to risk using a bigger bankroll at this time. Hope for some luck and have the wife play on my card at them lower bets to gain entrees.

Hope you all are staying warm its -1 here right now!

Good luck chasing the royal!

That is a great start to the year, congrats. I have 4 trips to the Borgata in Janurary, playing .50 SDB (99.69%) and .25 9/6 JOB multi-strikes. So far up $ 400. Not as good as you, but I'll take it.

I, for one, and glad to put January behind me. Whole lot of wheel spinning but very mediocre results.

We are glad to put January behind as well. Due to health issues no visits to a casino, not only no VP but also no bingo. Always hope for the future. The preceding is why our perspective about playing VP differs from you and others. Being able to play for entertainment with or without favorable paytables would be a significant morale booster. With that said BR, hope you and everyone else has a great February.
