We had a nice trip Wednesday Evening. We celebrated being finished for now with my 28 session Med treatments with a nice dinner at the Irish Pub and Restaurant at Bizarro. The food was excellent. Baked Cod and we shared a huge baked Apple Crisp with Vanilla bean Ice Cream and toppings.
We didn’t want to bust any more budgets ( the Med stuff is doing that ) so we played small denomination VP machines and wouldn’t you know, we both hit home runs. In fact, my largest hit ever on a 3 cent machine and the Mrs came close to her best hits on her DDB nickel Ultimate X game. On my game, 3 of the lines had the Ace with the quad Deuces which doubles the payout on those lines.
The casino picked up the room tab and after a quiet lunch Friday we headed home. We didn’t play at all on Friday. Fingers crossed on the rest of the Med stuff down the road So far so good. 🙏💪🤞👍🍀.

I assume this balances last trip's disaster. Nice $540 and $400 hits.

Just about give or TAKE! 😬 The insane thing is I have about a 90 percent record of losing sessions playing quarter or dollar 99 percent machines and a much much better record of playing low denomination 96 percent machines.
I think I know why. Too small of a bankroll on the. Big machines. Therefore less time to wait them out before busting. That machine that gave me 18,000x 3 cents has the option to play up to 20 lines at either a 3,5,10,or 20 cent level. That’s the kind of flexibility the Martingale Clone needs and less worry about busting. I’m pretty sure I’m correct from prior experience a time will tell on my next few trips as I plan to stick with this machine if I can get it.

Glad you and the Mrs had a nice trip. Wishing you good results on your future med stuff (as you put it).

Yeah. Dollar play is a 90% loss trip nightmare for me as well. If I do well early, I give double back. If not, nobody can really survive without a quad an hour. I should at least give the quarter machines one hour play right after I swipe my card at the Harrah's kiosk instead of proceeding into the HL Cove. I haven't sought out any machines below dollar level since the pay table would bring me down to 6/5 BP depths.

Another side trip last night. Same machine was similar great hands. The one with a 3,5,10,or 20 cent option and up to 20 lines. Ancient machine. I think it’s been there since day one. I hope they don’t pull it. Like a dodo bird though I tried a dollar machine same game, but the machine was ice cold and I gave 1/2 back before I walked. 😬 still a very good trip overall.
