Was just ball parking your playing time at about 3 hours.

And 254 TCs. Last two pages, each of his other sessions was under 100 TCs. But he always has $25 free play at both tables and slots. I think those are nice benefits for his level of action. If I played the same at a typical Vegas locals casino, I'd probably get $5 slot play.

Satisfactory Saturday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a six point hit. My max dollar quad took over an hour. My suddenly chatty old pal Straight Flush paid me a return visit sixty five minutes later. I was of course shamefully unprepared. Net Day: +$146. 233 TCs.

Hey FAA, just a idea but could you start putting in how long your sessions were. Would be helpful information and seems to be a topic of discussion even from yourself. Congrats on a nice session

Eight great hands and I could not even break even.

A $150 win is great hand? Maybe at nickel or dime. $31.75? $25? On those games only the royal is a great hand. Even 4Aces at $1 max bet on BP only gives you $400. If you had hit eight of those, I would say you had 8 good hands possibly resulting in a great day.

You should really re-evaluate your style of play. Since most of your play is either full coin quarter or short coin dollar, and games with minimal bonus payoffs, you are making your chances of getting a hand pay go from maybe one of these trips, to maybe one of these decades. But you think $25 is a great hand. You do realize that a full house at full coin dollar is almost twice as great?

I intended to mean eight solid hands, a consensus for those denominational games. You are right in that I spent too much time on quarter. Yesterday I simply avoided it. Waste of time and unrewarded effort unless RF $1,150, which is almost never. I enjoy responsible dollar play and am best served concentrating my efforts there. I eschew bonus games beyond vanilla BP.

Satisfactory Sunday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a five point hit. I placed $35 NFL bets, which netted $32. I won $31 on Resorts 7/5 BP. I won $25 on my $25 Caesars FP and gave back $80 before leaving. Good healthy walk. Net Day: +$57. 50 TCs.

Walking good!! 57 bucks covers gas and a couple of lunches. I always forget what TCs are

Tier Credit. Net means net all, including transportation. I had a Bloody Mary before my coffee. Too complacent and greedy again. I needed quad to recoup give back.

Sad Sunday. I arrived at Resorts for NFL viewing. Unfortunately, I was intent on VP. The quick -$400 made this casino a boycott venue, like Tropicana, Harrah’s, etc. Everything was cold and unplayable. I walked to Caesars in a daze. 4.5 hours and -$240. I only shot one of four quads due to temporary phone malfunction; last three dollar. Net Day: -$680. 352 TCs.

Bummer! Not on BP either.
