Re: My Journey on Video Poker
Almost forgot to mention this thread is almost at 450,000 hits. Easily the most of any thread on this site! Still looking for my royalties lol
Anyway, if and when it hits 500,000, I'd like to do something special. I was thinking of a video poker play meet and greet thing here in Vegas at a designated time and place.
The details are still being worked out, and taking suggestions, but right now the basic idea in my head is 4 musts: 1. video poker must be good and preferably multi-denominational to satisfy most players... Although I know a bank of 3 single line nickle machines that are the best games in town. 2. Everyone has fun and everyone plays. 3. Anybody who hits a premium hand must have a drink. No, it doesn't have to be alcohol. 4. It must take place in Las Vegas, casino of my choosing, and most likely off-strip for the good vp.
So, that's the basic idea. Of course subject to change. I'll keep you all posted.
Cheers!

First session of 2018 tonight...
Was a disappointing one as we play the old grind .25c single line full pay deuces. No deuces, no Royal,
No bueno as we give back -$280 to the casino.
Cheers!
Ps 500k get together looks like it may be on this site instead. We’ll see.

Tonight we took back our loan to the casino with some interest. On a short session because I was dozing off at the machine, but didn’t let me go without dropping a quad deuce...so +$300 for this one.
Cheers!

.25c full pay deuces took its money back plus more interest as I played a long frustrating session of missed deuces and royals. -$398 for this one.

Unfortunately another frustrating session of .25c full pay deuces. Just doesn’t want to give up the goods. The only thing saving this one from being a bigger loser is a decent amount of royals with deuce. So -$90 for this one.

Redemption! .25c full pay deuces lives up to its name this time around as we finally get the big winning session. Lots of good hits including two quad deuces (what’s better than a quad deuce? Two or more quad deuce)...and we crush this session +$640. Played about 2 hours and started with a bankroll of $300.
So...Makes up for our previous losses this year and puts us up ahead some. Hey, I might even catch up to Phil who is playing the other quarter deuce versions.
Cheers!

With his pay table and your frequency, that's a slam dunk.

Bag the elephant tonight on full pay deuces with a Royal flush on the redraw. If I remember right, it may be the same way I hit the last Royal on full pay deuces. At any rate, a Royal is a Royal and will take it anyway it comes. +$850 for this one peeps.
Cheers!

Why, on a redraw, when nothing was held, would the screen show all five cards held?
