This time Spin Poker was the lucky game. I was actually doing pretty bad overall, until I started playing Super Aces Bonus spin poker, and was dealt this beauty:
Bumped up the denom to quarters and started playing 9/5 TDB, planning to cash out at $800. Managed to hit quad aces again (no kicker) along with various other decent hands and was up to over $1300. Bumped the denom up to half dollar and continued to hover between $1200 and $1400 for a good ten minutes or so. Then I was dealt 9-A-J-Q-T of hearts. I don't know why but I seriously considered taking the dealt flush because I was thinking "there's no way I'll get the King of Hearts ". Luckily the gambler in me just held the AJQT, and this was the result:
Bumped up the denom to the max of $1 after I got paid, and actually did pretty good. Hit a couple of 5-K quads and was up as high as $1800 at one point, but wanted to cash out at just below $1200. Took a while to run it down though.
The Summer 2020 winning streak continues

Holding 4 to RF is the right strategy. This is a no brainer. And you just “luckily” made the right decision.
Obviously you are lack of the knowledge of even some basic strategy.

Why didn't you congratulate the OP for great hits and leave it at that. How can you say with certainty he/she is not knowledgeable of basic strategy. While the choice of words made suggest that, in the end, he/she made the right strategic decision.
