Pot Shots Anyone?

[FAA]

Congratulations. $1,400 was also the quarter JOB Caesars Progressive amount today. I have been faithfully monitoring it. A man hit it at 4 PM, four hours after I quit the machine post quad with a thirteen dollar loss. My luck hasn't changed. Bad or none.

Thanks FAA. Still down for the year, but discipline seems to be the key at least for me. Anyway, try as a might, I still have the fastest losses bar none on 9/6 99.54 job. I seem to hit Royalless streaks for months, days without quads, and the extra kick in the pants, an extreme shortage on full houses. Combine those three and you face certain annihilation in short order and that's what happens to me on job.

I appreciate the feedback. It's finally sinking in for me too. Fast losses and sixteen months without a RF. Bad formula. I resorted to ATM stroll and dollar play at Harrah's to recoup Bally's and Caesars losses. CET Revenge Tour trifecta. It worked, but that screwed up my R&R with the stress and time wasted. Basically the usual day.

[FAA]

33,000 hands if I had to conservatively guesstimate. You triggered an idea. It may be time to buy a clicker to properly tabulate this stuff. I'm a very slow player anyway and this would give me something actually productive to do between hands! Give yourself a hand, OMT.

I can see you now sitting at the machine clicking away.  33,001, 33002, 33,003....   When you finally hit that royal your head would explode!!

33,000 hands isn't even a full cycle.You aren't overdue for a RF.
If you played a few thousand a week and didn't have one in sixteen months, it would be an issue.

[FAA]

Note my conservatively usage. I could be off 10,000. I ordered a clicker. Small but large enough display, lays flat on machine. Unobtrusive and handy. Phil is being facetious of course. Four figure display. I'll just track daily tally and mull over the data. I've seen three RFs at the banks in this window, all at machines I've played at earlier in the day. It apparently pays to gamble later in the day at CET.

I don't think FAA is playing the same machine so would traditional thinking 1/40,000 apply?

   I don't think FAA is playing the same machine so would traditional thinking 1/40,000 apply?

   My understanding is if you are playing JOB, you will average one RF every 40,000 hands or so. Doesn't matter if that's on one machine or if you played one hand on 40,000 machines. Each hand has an equal shot at producing it. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
Anyone remember the Sand promo where the winner got one spin on every machine in the place, and one hand on every table? They advertised it as a chance to win 50 million dollars but guaranteed $25,000.
