.....or can't accept that it's not "random" (yet, not in violation of gaming regulations)

This is a difficult one for me to understand. The gaming regulations require random. Yet, you seem to be saying that the games are not random, but nevertheless comply with the requirement that they are.

i will no longer post on this thread, unless it for the original topic.

We'll see if people can reel it back in to the original subject matter instead of making personal digs.

Last time I was downtown, I played my favorite machine at the 4Qs and was getting slaughtered. About 500 hands without anything to write about when I hit a quad and three boats in about fifty hands. I ended up losing about $40 but I was surprised how rusty I was. I'm sure I misplayed a few hands. I'm almost positive I was dealt two pair and drew three cards at least once.
Before the virus hit, my main play was scavenging Harley Davidson. More fun than VP, for me.

There is the math in which no one can dispute, and then there is reality. Can someone explain why almost 95% of the hands dealt in any game will be crap with around 90% being overall losing or at best push hands, and this is on both the older machines and even moreso on the newer ones? Can these machines be "influenced" by software updates injected into a central server? Will casinos take that risk tyrying to recover from the 2.5 months of lockdown especially with the possibility of LV getting slammed shut again? The answer lies within..... just don't f*** with my 10 play machines!!

Good luck everyone!

Everyone thinks they are rigged when they are losing and just right when they are winning! When you come down to it, It is more luck of the draw than how you play.

Do you not think that the "luck of the draw" depends somewhat on how you play?

Player A has strategy down pat.
Player B knows the strategy, kind of ,sort of.

They play 500 identical hands. How many hands will they play differently?
I think that over an hour, or even over a day, the differences would be minimal. Player A's advantage over the long term would be obvious.
