Hey Babe, how many home runs does that one make, 25? "I don't know, but I'll keep hitting 'em and you keep counting 'em..."

Keep on that roll Dan.

Well, keeping with that theme...on the fpdw session tonight, hit a home run top of the 1st...at around the nine or tenth hands in kept two deuces and spiked the other two. Wasted no time. Then for the next hour hit an unusual amount of royals with deuce. Don't know how many, but cashed out in a little over an hour +$400. So riding the wave of positive variance here on the deuces. Still hoping to hit the elusive royal, but don't mind picking up a bunch of deuces on the way.
Cheers

On our recent trip to Rocky Gap I hit quad deuces twice. Not bad for someone who never played Deuces Wild until just recently.

Nice. The only thing better than hitting one quad
Deuce is hitting two quad deuce!

***I didn't mention an August contest I was doing for subscribers to my YouTube channel TheSuperdaniel1970 "Dealing in the Desert." but will mention the September one.
It's a total freeroll, costs nothing, and first place gets 10% of whatever I win for each of three session of full pay deuces. Judging by the fact I have 11 winning sessions in a row at the moment, it's a pretty good bet at least one of the three (hopefully all three) are winners and I can ship the cheddar.
i want to put it out on here because I want the good folk who read my posts the opportunity. So...here are some additional details:
1. How does it work? I will livestream a 1,000 hand session of 10/6 double double bonus on this site on September 30th anytime from 1am-6am PST (whenever I get home from work the night before...I'm a swing shift worker). It starts with 10,000 units and each bet is single line 5 units. One must guess how many units there will be at the conclusion of the 1k hands. Closest wins. Pretty simple.
2. How do I send my guess? One guess to an entrant, can send it to my email superdanman88@outlook.com or in the comment section of my videos on YouTube. An example can be "sep contest, 12,500" or "sep contest 8,200."
3. When can I send my guess? Anytime from now till the first hand of the livestream on September 30th.
4. Qualification? Must be 18 or over and either have or be able to have a PayPal account. My hope is many of you will subscribe to the channel but not necessary and neither is it necessary to watch the livestream.
5. Why am I doing this? To bring buzz and excitement to my channel, gain subscribers, exposure for video poker.com, and popularize video poker.
6. Anything else? Not really. August contest was a very low turnout but I did not do any real advertising outside the channel. This one should be quite different.
So, cheers and hit lots of jackpots. This one is a pure freeroll so the only reason I can think of not to play is...you don't like money :)
Cheers

Well...the good news is we hit the deuces. The bad news is...it wasn't enough and we book a loss of -$100. Could of been a lot worse and at one point was down $350. Just one of those session, one of those cycles. It happens and one just has to roll with the punches, step back and look at the whole chalkboard, not just one part of it. Streak is over, was fun while it lasted, on to the grind!

My frequent situation. The nice hit cannot recoup a disastrous start. At least you keep the faith and remain hell bent on max coin play. I ratchet down and really take a bath.

This session of fpdw was sort of a repeat of the last one. We hit a quad deuce, but once again...not enough as we toke back to the casino -$200. A very long grind tonight, somewhere between 7-7500 hands. Too many dry spells and got too tired to continue. Tomorrow is another day. Cheers!

Well, we finally bag the elephant and hit the ROYAL FLUSH! Around the 2k hand mark save 4 and pop the other 1. Club Royal, which is the prettiest imo (they are all pretty). So +$900 for this session. No deuces but will take a Royal over ducks any day of the week.
Makes up for some recent losses...and then some. So what else can I say? Go and do likewise, tomorrow is another day.
Cheers

Not to be picky, but the picture shows held four and drew one, not three and two. Congrats in any case.
