Congratulations. That would have been a regrettable $1,000 RF in my paradigm. You cleaned up.

I ran up last night just for a few hours. I had one nice hit on Joker Kings. The Bonus Deuces was pretty cold then Wham! Another Royal! I guess the “ Force “ ….. I mean the Horse was with me. Thanks OTA. Haven’t done the math, but I may be even again for the year. We are getting a mini version of the heat wave, but nothing like the rest of the Country. Be careful out there. We are expecting 93-95 degrees. I guess that’s cool compared to Phoenix and many other places. PS, OTA…. if you know of a preservation society or foundation charity for the horses out your way, could you let me know. Thanks again. Olds…..

Another rare RF, 800:1 at that. Your triple play play has been scorching hot lately. That straight flush is a nice bump from my BP $250 and easier to hit on Joker. Triple play makes me so nervous. Even if you only play one line, rest of the screen too distracting. I don’t know how people do it. I even avoid it with contest games.

I have my eyes trained to not look at the rest of the screen, but it doesn’t work that well as you can imagine. For that reason, I have been playing all three lines lately which gives me a better shot at hitting something but at the same time if the machine is iced cold on the deal line, you are probably going to get smoked on the other two or at best, maybe have a push on one of them Of course what that means is on a ice cold day you need triple your normal bankroll 😬 and will probably lose it. The only bonus is the variance is somewhat less. I’m not sure how much less though. I am still wondering why many years ago MS removed the 99.1 BP games, but left 99.54 JOB intact. The BP they left there is not worth playing.

That is a major MS disincentive for me. BP is my favorite game at this point. I’d have no interest going just for the same JOB I already get in AC. Of course, it’s nice to visit just for the experience itself.

They still have 98.01 7/5 BP. They can keep it.
