I was able to bag the elephant tonight and hit a royal flush on .25c single line bonus poker. Took 1600 hands to hit the first quad and ended up only hitting one less quad than I should of hit. Overall, of course will take a royal over a bag of quads any day of the week. Vp gods were merciful today...hope that mercy continues...+$900
Cheers!

Congratulations. Fantastic session. I love that it gave you a precise $1,100 total. A desert dream! That screen is no mirage.

Nice hit Dan. 1600 hands to get a quad is my kind of luck. Good thing you were playing Bonus Poker instead of DDB.

Last two sessions have played .50c single line 8/5 bonus poker with full points and multipliers. Second to last session ended up +$20 with about $40 in cash back. Last session ended up +$100 dollars with about $10 in cash back.

Winning is a real drug that your brain likes and you can never get
enough.  I take as little money
as possible into the casino.  For me this is about 1000 coins.  I never
go into the casino with an ATM card (poison!). The only way I have been able to keep my
gambling expenses within reason is to get used to playing very small
denominations single coin.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Throwback good advice. Helps to have top of mind.

Food for thought as I take one on the chin tonight, -$500. VP gods angry about the recent string of wins and takes some back...as they usually do. What can I say, can't win them all. Just too many blanks. Bumped up the denomination to earn more points faster...but after a pretty nice thump, may go back to quarters which is a longer grind but a little easier on the palate and wallet.

Commit unconditionally to the long grind. It's the only way to sanity. Bump up denom play will result in a severe head bump, as your mega loss confirms. My wallet will be much lighter without that bulky ATM card ready to crush me.
