Short and sweet.

Full pay deuces session today should of been a beating, but got lucky. Started with the usual $300 bankroll and right away hitting blanks. Surprisingly quickly was down over $200 in about 20 minutes. Very rare for this game. I thought well, it’s going to be one of those sessions. Hovered around the $40-90 mark for quite awhile when I save a single deuce and managed to find three more with a fat ace laughing at me right in the middle. So managed to avoid almost certain loss and cashed out +$20.
Cheers

Back to battle today on fpdw. This time no lucky deuces or Royal to bail us out of another struggle. -$350 for this relatively lengthy 3 hour session. Bug or windshield...bug this time.

Decided to switch it up a little bit and played .25c single line not so ugly deuces. Was able to flop a pretty quad deuce and able to cash out up ahead +$200. So chipped some off the loss yesterday.

Fast playing rather lengthy (at least for me) grind of full pay deuces this time around. Started with the usual $300 and frustrated again as the misses were fast and furious. But managed to hang in their long enough to get the deuces...more or less thanks to a lot of 5oak’s. Played in the neighborhood of 4,600-4,800 hands and around the 3 hr mark.
The interesting thing tonight was I had company for most of the session with a fellow grinder I’ve seen before but doesn’t really want to talk, which I respect. At any rate, this guy was also grinding the full pay and now and again slamming his fist on the console...never saying a word lol. I lost count of the bills he put in, maybe 4 or 5 bills (4-500). Reason I know is he was putting in a bill,
Lost, then put another bill in, one at a time, unlike me who puts it all in at one time. Well, to make a long story short, he suddenly stiffens up and pauses which catches my eye. I look and sure enough he hit the Royal. He played two more hands to cash out an even $1100 and split. Ironically, less than 25 hands later I hit the deuces and split. So +$85
For me.
Cheers!

Today was one of those days when I ask myself why I ever got into video poker. Started with the slightly more variant .25c loose deuce (100.15%) version. Started with $300 and figured this game was more of a gamble. One either hits the deuces/royal or they don’t. I didn’t. Down 300, I decided to play the less variant not so ugly deuces .25c single line and played a very long session. Almost 5 hours, but no deuces to be found. I became very frustrated and on tilt, and that should of been a sign to walk. I had about $140 left of the $300 I put in this machine. I decided to up it to $1 nsud deuces and either
Go big or go home. Went home. -$600. Although caught a few positive sessions this week, it was mostly brutal like sitting in a dentist chair. Tonight puts me down for the month. Any gambling on tilt nearly always goes badly. Break time.

You had great pay tables and everything. On tilt gambling is pure terror. Despondent, you lose your senses in a fit of vengeful rage to break even. Bump that denomination! I'd take a break after this one too.

Work early. Decided on .25c single line bonus poker. Vp gods still vengeful as they take another -$175. When it rains, it pours. Running bad folks.
Cheers
