The Path II

[FAA]

Sedate Saturday. I won $12 on $25 quarter Caesars JOB FP. I played fifty minutes BP dollar before my max quad. I lost my $25 table FP on eight to craps. Off to Harrah’s. I hit a Straight Flush and three quads in two solid hours. But poor discipline and excessive losses. Net Day: -$45. 300 TCs.

Wow lots of good stuff in a short time. Sounds like one of my discipline/not days. You must be running up some pretty good points though.

Yes, the 302 TCs gives me 888 fwiw. My two early Harrah’s hits gave me a false sense of security. I stayed way too long in my dark flow state and suffered a brutal eighty five minutes between quads. $325 quad hits in the last twelve minutes. All the earmarks of an unmitigated disaster. I jumped up and down on my last one, $200 quad fours. I left in a bewildered daze. At least the jitney had arrived so I avoided rain. This missed max RF revenge tour is too frightening. If this is good, I hate to experience any more bad days.

Sedate Saturday. I won $22 in $20 Caesars JOB FP. I hit a dollar quad in a half hour. Short coin, so I hit a quarter quad after some coffee. I was dealt a plain BP quad, then another twenty five minutes later. I blew off lunch to test the Cove room. I exited an hour later up ten bucks. Bally’s looked the same, but there was only one operating machine in my bank. I hit a max quad and left for Caesars and a quarter quad. Lots of play, little pay. Net Day: +$94. 195 Harrah’s and 50 Caesars TCs. Harrah’s Cove is a damn sweat box and I lost so much that I resorted to brief five dollar play.

Sedate Sunday. I won $15 on my $25 Caesars JOB FP. I lost my $25 table FP on five to craps. Gordon Ramsey lunch. Then I lost $100 on quarter JOB FP. No matter the machine, no luck. So much for my planned low stress trip. I decided to hit a nearby two buck ATM for dollar BP BR. I was somewhat upset about my plain BP quads yesterday and maybe I could be vindicated. I soon hit quad deuces for $200, my withdrawal amount. Time for the sports book. Net Day: -$10. 40 TCs.

Not a bad day in paradise!

I forgot how bad the progressive bank plays on Sunday. It literally doesn’t pay! Everyone was stymied by its futility. Exactly one person hit a quad. He played five more hands and split. So much trouble on such a low denomination. In five hours it rose from $1,025 to $1,032. I went into loss chasing mode and sought out an ATM. I wanted a certain machine, but it was busy. I headed for the back row. Area is just as uncomfortably hot as Harrah’s Cove. This time ATM use paid off with my first bonus quad of the weekend. What a relief.

Superb Saturday. I won $16 on $25 Caesars JOB FP. I bolted for dollar and lost about $150 in the next half hour. Fortunately, I then hit a $150 quad. I lost my $25 table FP on eight to craps and left with a net zero. At Harrah’s, I again went into a rapid descent. My third quad didn’t even cover the $100 inserted. I wanted to switch machines. But just as I rose, a woman sat in it to catch her breath. I stayed and hit a max Straight Flush three minutes later! Love my pal Straight. He’s been around a lot lately. Net Day: +$135. 124 TCs.

Prdtty amazing. With maybe 60,000 hands I play a week, I cant even remember the last straight flush I got. However, technically a Royal is a straight flush so counting them, I got a couple.

[FAA]

Yes, ramrod straight. I’ll trade my next ten for a dollar RF. Someone was looking out for me today. Just as I attempted a move, I was blocked. That was an excellent three minute addendum. I only played seventy five minutes. But I went back to my rule of no play beyond a SF. It’s essentially asking for retribution.
