Fair Friday. I tried Resorts, as I miss their mailers, waitresses and soft spoken ambiance. It soon grew unbearably hot. I hit a BP quad and ran out after a brisk 20 minutes play +$7 as though set on fire. Such is variance. I lost my Caesars $25 table FP on a nine to out. I won $12 on $25 quarter JOB FP. It took three more quads to leave town a modest winner. All three BPs a bland boring vanilla. Net Day: +$40. 36 TCs.

I only practice on BP. It has been a colossal waste of time to JOB it at the casino, granted.

Stable Saturday. 5X Tier Credits event. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on a five to out. I skipped my usual quarter JOB warmup, as all five functional progressives were taken. I won $27 on my $25 machine BP FP. I soon gave it back, but my old pal Straight paid his respects for $200 within the hour! I then got my quarter fix. The ladies dropped by for my quad. Off to Resorts for a steakhouse lunch. I foolishly checked a kiosk, activating a day. So I played some BP and won $26. Back to Caesars navigating the boardwalk slush. I hit three more quads there, but gave back about $150. I noticed the progressive was reset and asked a regular if he saw who won. He confessed! He said he played seven hours by then and was set to leave a half hour before the hit. Meanwhile, he was still at it a half hour after the RF. A Seven Stars hit a $4,000 RF five minutes after I relinquished machine. I congratulated him and even took photos. Good thing I took a break. Five minutes later, I hit quad deuces to salvage my trip! We hugged it out. Net Day: +$71. 154 TCs.

Yep. You are the King of Straight flushes. I can’t remember the last time I had one. Can’t get any closer to a dealt Royal than that. Holy S….. If that had hit, it would have been 1,000 instead of 4,000.

King of two digit wins as well. I lost a horrific amount in the last hour. The hundreds kept transferring from wallet to machine. I was bracing for the depressing ride home, a loser on a SF day. Quad deuces bailout was a life saver. Nice to have a friendly neighbor to share the news. He was already all smiles from his $4,000 win.

Congrats! And you avoided the kicker, so maybe we're less likely to hear about how you should have played tdb.

Yes, thanks for the dismal reminder. My December dealt RF was for half of that. I've had quite enough bad news on this front. I guess I must raise my "max percentage" to a solid 90%!
