Thanks Bill. I’m going to have to stick with nickels for awhile. The dud streak this time on many sessions was a really bad one. I actually have to run back up there today for a free blender. Ours is 50 years old and still works, but it takes a special O ring that I’m not sure I can get anymore. Things were made so much better back then and even before that too. We have really turned into a just throw it away society and get a new one. Way back in the 50s, if my dad couldn’t get a part for something, he often just made it. Learned a lot back then about that stuff. Our blender is a Waring. Made in USA of course. I don’t even have to ask where the giveaway one will be made.

I can hear the ice crushing all the way down here in PA....enjoy your daquiris, mai tais, kamakazis and whatever else! Mix in a royal or two while you're at it.

👍 Just pulled in to go get it. Will probably nibble a bit at the nickel machines. Quick dinner and head home. No room. I hope it’s the one that can crush ice without imploding. I still have a 1930s vintage hand crank ice crusher at home. Works great.

Congratulations. Both $320 and holding four. I could get $1,000 for just a nickel more on a quarter JOB, but I can’t sniff one, much less two! It’s Waring me out.

This is Bizarro world on steroids!! Back home with the blender ( cheapest Black & Decker) model. I only played 2 hours on nickels and hit 2 more Royals also only in hearts and on top of that several hits on quad Deuces. It really makes me wonder. Beat me up months at a time on quarters and dollars then give me all these hands in 3 days and just a few hours of play. On top of everything, I only played with the Mrs card!! Very Bizarro!! Plus 220 for the session. Maybe the blender will be ok. We’ll see. Made in China. Where else!!

Thanks FAA! Forgot to say it in the above text. Bizarro awaits you. The only problem is will it be Trick 😬 or will it be Treat?

I am resolute in going after an AC RF. This may even occur before hell freezes over. The sooner, the better.

Continuing to be beat up at Bizarro. Every session since the Royals. Seems like all VP players have a similar story. I haven’t seen any hand pays anywhere on VP in over a week. I have reduced bankrolls, but not enough. I even resorted to transferring my gains on Market trades to shore up the bank account. 😬 Canceling rooms the rest of the week. Last 3 sessions have been straight down no matter what game. Not even a tilted sine curve.
