This hand has occurred several times since my run started in June...but never in this fashion!
I sat down at a VP machine Saturday and, as is my custom, I played a hundred dollar bill on $5 denon before settling down at $1 denom/$5 denom rotation for the rest of my session. On my second hand, I was dealt 4 aces with a kicker for $10,000. As I said, I have had this hand before, but always I had to work for it. Nothing like a dealt on the second hand of a session to wake you up and get the ole heart thumping! (I have a photo of the dealt hand but unsure how to upload it. It is on my iPhone, which has text, internet, etc, but I have not used it for email. Any advice or instructions to post the hand would be appreciated.)
Incidentally, since my run started earlier this year, I am now up almost $30,000. Most of that came during early summer before I took a long VP break in August and September. This dealt $10,000 hand came on my second hand of my second session since starting back. As FlaPhil has reminded me, at some point the averages will catch up with me, but for now I am enjoying the magical ride!
The thing that has happened for me is many small sessions where I lost, and a few really big sessions that overwhelmed the small losing sessions. My two sessions since starting back are examples: Session 1, I lost $620. Session 2, I won $9,300.

To Vman or Jstark: I have called up videopoker.com on my iPhone. Now can you tell me how to get to the "full editor and preview" option? Obviously, I am a bit old-fashioned. Thanks!!
