I put undue strain on my wallet. Twelve bills even limiting it to hundreds and twenties. I now know to detour the twenties to another pouch if this recurs.
I maintain that I need a quad per hour to break even. Yesterday was twice that rate. I blew three max quad hits again. But I hit the crucial final premium quad.

Winner Wednesday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a six point hit. I won $13 on my $25 machine quarter JOB FP. I racked up 46 TCs on dollar BP for $40. Resorts stroll was fruitless. A nines quad put me +$1. Sports book for two hours; return stroll. I debated Ruth’s Chris HH; machines did sizzle for me. A small quad six within 20 minutes. A max quad 15 minutes later. Max sixes 30 minutes later. I tilted pursuing a premium quad for -$190. Then my old pal Straight arrived for a bailout! Net Day: +$280. 139 TCs.

Woeful Wednesday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a self rolled eight point hit. I won $45 on $25 machine FP (dollar BP). My medium quad took 90 minutes. I lost $103 in the next hour. I did check in with some quarter JOB in spurts. As I was leaving the venue, a young man hit the $1,019 RF. Net Day: -$160. 166 TCs.

Fatal Friday. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on a three out. I won $34 on my $25 machine FP, thanks to a quad. I hit two more short quads after switching to dollar BP. But after three quads in under 90 minutes, my next one took a hundred minutes. Small, after the beating forced me back to quarter. I have programmed FF into my phone on a weekly basis. I will keep my ATM card out of my wallet during the day if I ever return during these hours on a FF. -$493, 189 TCs.

It doesn't matter how often the quads come if they only pay $6.25.

Sure. Broke and broken by then. I would have been better off jumping in front of a jitney.

Feeble Friday. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on a six to out. I won $55 on my $25 machine dollar BP FP. Off to Hard Rock lunch for a nostalgic hour. I played about 90 minutes of dollar BP at Resorts. Last minute quad bailout. It was a wasted trip. Net Day: -$65. 1 TC.

Feeble Friday. I lost my $25 table FP on a five to out. I won $15 on my $25 machine dollar BP FP. Off to Borgata via Harrah’s shuttle and a field trek. It was a wasted trip as the FP required play and Bar was packed. Back at Harrah’s, 7/5 Cove BP for -$25. Two quarter quads in two hours at Caesars, split between quarter and dollar. Of course the adjacent machine hit the RF in a cruel deja vu. Net Day: -$120. 80 TCs.
