Threes must have been the common number. Couldn't hit at all this past weekend not even moving down to 2¢ denomination multi-hand so I resolved myself to hit the single hand machines. By playing $1 i could get 7/5 Bonus and I was able to stay afloat and eventually hit 4 Aces. Threes and then 4's kept coming up in trip's so frequently I told the lady next to me i had a premonition the machine would deal either 3's or 4's for $200. Less than 10 minutes later, sure enough about 5 hands after my switch to JOB (when I lost my Bonus timing) i caught dealt 3's for $125.

Yes wacky things happen all of the time to me. Like this Friday night at Foxwoods. Note the dealt quad aces on the wrong game. Still, I was thrilled. And it went home. Later in the evening quad aces on the same game appeared again, but I had only bet one coin not wanting to give the 1 k back. 53BF3C10-ECE4-4C4C-A996-2A85D888A16A.jpeg

I took the pic after I cashed out
Nice redraw!

Also 3s have been very good to me this year. The only 3 quads I've had this year that were worth $200 or more!

Generally when I notice that it is the same rank of cards gumming up all my draws. A few sessions ago it was fives. Seems every 3 to a royal or smalls with a kicker draw I would get a lousy five. Except of course when I got dealt trip fives.

Today it was 5's. I swear a pair of 5's was dealt every other hand on Bonus Deluxe Spin poker. I think I was driving the guy next to me nuts. Then this happened.

JOB kept teasing me with a pair of eights for a stretch the other day. Programmers just love to bug us with their pesky quirks!

Or how about getting continually dealt 2 2's, 3's, & 4's and NOT getting any 4-OAK's out of that?

The streaks you guys talking about is exact how the randomness behaves.

There is no pattern. Period. Any so called pattern you found will be balanced out soon in the near future.

But how about winning the jackpot 4 aces with a kicker when holding just one ace. This happened to me a lot and it accounts significant portion of all my 4AWK winnings... is that a pattern? :roll: This happened to me twice during my suspension...i didn't take the photo of my 2nd one coz my phone was running out of battery...

I’m just seeking one of those hand pays to quit VP for the year, and hopefully for good.
