Do gamblers consider today’s date (11/11) lucky?

The lighter side... playing for entertainment, less concerned about "the math."

Bonus poker is the worst game without doubt - ER wise it’s no better than JoB; excitement wise it’s no better than DDB/TDB.

I kind of like it. I actually play it, sacrificing EV, to relieve JOB boredom! But the last two sessions it has put me in huge holes right away. I emerged from them by reverting to JOB. Go figure.

Me too, but not single line. I much prefer to play multiline, and at several of the casinos I visit (Seneca Niagara, Main Street Station, Aquarius) 8/5 bonus poker is the best multiline game available.

If you can find 8/5 multiline, that's a nice convenience. But I can only imagine the losses with the luck I've had at the start of my last two sessions. How the hell would I ever break even?

8/5 BP 10-play in the nickel, dime, quarter, fifty cent, $1, and $2 denom is all over Rampart Casino in Summerlin, not too far from Red Rock Casino in LV. Tons of them! The game itself can keep you afloat, but it can and will bite you just like any other game will. They also have 8/6 Bdlx on those same machines where the SF pays 100 to 1 making it a 99.07 game, and 9/7/5 DB, and 9/6 DDB. They used to have 9/7 TDB, 8/5 Super Aces, and 16/10/4 DW on those machines but those were knocked down to 9/6, 7/5, and 15/9/4 respectively several years back.
