Good to know on Pickem though. I ran up today for a free gift and played a few hours. All Bonus Deuces Wild. Trounced again. I will spare the forum the details. No Royal, no quad deuces. And to top it off, this was a multiline Spin Poker Deluxe game. Unsurvivable if the Royal or Quad deuces don’t hit. Overnight with the Mrs. planned for tomorrow night. Hope to make up part if the last few disaster losses.

Change of plans. Solo tonite. They must want me back after the last few disaster sessions. Just arrived, checked in and they upgraded me to a luxury room. Will post back after I see how it goes.

Spare the forum the details?! We need transparency. I must keep learning how much a disaster trip will cost in dollars/mental agony. Confession is good for the soul.

Its hard to believe, but JOB went quadless again for 6 hours, probably 4,000 hands. Not desperate, but determined, I switched to dollars and after 25 net losing 5 buck bets ( 125 ) dollars, I pushed the clone to bet 6 and immediately hit an FAA type dealt hand paying me back my evening losses. I still didn’t feel a winning session was in the works , And felt the jacks or better machiney May need a little boost like a joker to complete a quad. I stayed with dollars and within two or three minutes connected with a quad with the joker. At this point I was only about 80 bucks ahead and put in a lot of work for a little pay so I packed it in and took in the news and world events. They gave me a beautiful luxury room so at least I got some sleep this time instead of my usual Sleep deprived trips. I think the Mrs. wants to go tomorrow night if so I will just keep this thread going for now because this place really is bizarro world!!

A six hour JOB quad drought is cruel and unusual punishment worthy of a sitcom episode. My droughts the last two trips have been 35 and 5 minutes. I'm at dollars these days due to casino renovation, so I would have easily busted. It's been imperative to play when people are there and holding their own. I think that much of your losing is connected to time of day and that you would be in the red after four hours on any game. It must be so satisfying to beat the casino after all that time, even by a trifle, and relax in their comped luxury room! I'm still getting over the lady who triggered a hand pay with a full house. Beautiful held straight flush. They do not grow on trees.

I am so used to droughts of various types I am almost mentally immune. The pocketbook is not immune though. I have no desire to open it and see a moth fly out. Between wusdless JOB days And two stretches of 600,000 hands without a royal, I am used to being in the Stocks and I don’t mean the market

After -$125, I’m almost in panic mode. I can’t escalate matters beyond that, as $5 is already rich and I’d get screwed on a RF hit. I just hope for a premium quad. Luckily, a dealt one did occur last week. Enjoying the day and deferred gambling has been a good formula. It’s nice to not totally rush the damn trip. Quads rarely see the light of day in the afternoon. It’s bizarre.

Thats crazy, how the hell is someone going to get them 4ok's back??? that's 10 you are behind that day what about other trips? I don't buy this long term BS, once you get behind like behind say 5 royals, it's not like they come in so easy not! One can not make them up over years, will some players a few but most will never recover in my book.

If not for bad luck, he wouldn't have any luck at all.
