Three hands delivering $1,400, including that thousand while only betting $5. Just fall asleep in front of the TV and leave after a relaxing AM pool visit.

I am still trying to get a handle on single vs multi line machines. I think the right balance might be 3 lines, but even then when things are ice cold, you lose almost 3 times as fast. When you have a bunch of lines like 10, and your bet is 10 times your single line bet, your one good hit unless it’s dealt is very much diluted. Anyone feel free to chime in with their thoughts on single line vs multi line. I only have one lifetime great hit in multi line, but it was a big one for 18k back in 2016. I think for tonight, my max will be 3 lines. I will probably begin with one line and see how it goes. Also on JOB,, I can only get 9/6 on single line. All thoughts and figures welcome on this issue. If I remember correctly, Ted and OMT prefer multi line. FAA single line. Also LL multi. Not sure about the rest of the gang.
Strictly single line DDB (rare dip into TDB).

Keep up the string of deuces. Here's to getting the four of them dealt, one for each of my four cats. Wife and I rescued them.

Thanks all. Funny, I was just thinking of dealt Deuces. I’m switching to quarters though. I know how the give back game works. Having a late dinner break. Thanks again for the inputs and good luck wishes

Back home now. Will be stopping at the Animal Shelter tomorrow. If I have time, I usually try and play a little after lunch before going home. Sometimes just enough to buy a cup of coffee. Today I left the dollar machines alone and played some Triple Spin Poker which I have been doing very well on. I still hesitate to play it as the quarter game is only 97.5 and the nickel one is 96 and change. However, I have toned down the Martingale Clone to the point where I think I can grab a few bucks and run without busting bankroll. After losing a net of ten times my current bet on regular Deuces Wild, Ny next bet is up a line, but not upped on the amount per line. If I run out of lines though, upping the amount bet per line could become necessary and lines bet would go down some. Note. These are 800 for bet one machines or I wouldn’t play them at all. Three pics are attached. One has a Royal hit on one line at bet one. I went home a few minutes after that. I started with 100 in a free play award and 25 award on my wife’s card that I played with too. At least I got her into Leap status. She might get a bit of free play and can get into the lounge on her own now, though she never goes in without me. I made out well on the free play this trip due to it being Triple Status points yesterday and today. I got a 100 award last night and another one today. Also 25 each session on my wife’s card. Thanks all for the cheering session. It worked.

Living at or just off the shore my entire life, I like to equate VP with Ebb and flow of the tides. Unfortunately, long term for most of us, the Ebb ( outgoing tide ) dominates. The flow is when a nice hit appears and the credits flow into the machine. 🙂 once in awhile just like at the marsh the flow can be quite dramatic and take one by surprise.
