Sometimes time can be your friend

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

You know what winning big would do? Extinguish 2021 VP. I can grab a half dozen nice meals with my comps, but they are valid for six months. I just want the hand pay satisfaction of soundly beating a casino for a day.

You will get it. You are Mr Straight Flush. The Royal is just another one of those.

Disingenuous statement. I did my celebration after the dollar SF, fully justified after the preceding -$150. Guy passing by said kiddingly, “You couldn’t get the RF?” I was elated to get my damn money back after that cold cycle.

Always good to be able to play catch up and win or be near even

I never dreamed that the first losing stint would be followed by two max quads on adjacent machines within three minutes of each other. You have to put in the time.

Will see if time is on my side today. Just pulled into Mohegan. Traffic bad even worse I 95 Southbound with New Yorkers going home to what’s left of their crime infested city. I will take an alternate country route later. I am just here to pick up a grill giveaway and play just for an hour or two. My host was sympathetic to my rant about the unsafe food conditions in the lounge after they have been so good for months. It was very nice of her to put a $100 food comp in my account so I don’t have to go near the lounge. I will save it till I come back with the Mrs. for my birthday in a few days. Will keep my play quarters today hoping for some gas money and bail out No room tonight they have become very stingy with the rooms blaming it on busy season and conventions. Haven’t been near Foxwods in almost 2 years but may have to start if the room situation gets any worse here. I always think somehow I am teaching the casino a lesson in different areas and yet the reverse seems to be true most of the time. Bottom line is overtime you play you pay

These are the only two machines I can short coin in Mohegan sun now and get away with it. 98.44% not great but not terrible. Just here for a little relaxation couple of hours max the challenge will be navigating the New Yorkers going home.

The giveaway will be nice when I am cooking outside in my propane tank runs out right in the middle of some chicken breasts or a steak

Speaking of time being on your side, I couldn’t resist posting this photo. I don’t know how good he is at playing video poker but he sure knows how to relax. The photo was taken a few days ago just a short distance from the family farm in Southwestern Virginia. From the looks of it he is at the edge of a local landfill.
