Unfortunately, a new batch arrives early every morning at Dunkin. As the song goes……” I’ll be there “. Coffee and 24/7 free at Bizarro for the Mrs and I. If anyone hasn’t tried the apple cider donut yet,……👍. There are two Dunkin’s at Bizarro and 3 Krispy Cremes. 😬. The KC coffee is the pits though and they pour way too much sugar glaze on their cake donuts. Guess it will be Dunkin for us. There is also a Starbucks, but they don’t participate in the coffee club program. 👎. Arrogant #%*<{]<*%~€#} IMO, but their employees are in general very nice. I hope the Mrs leprechaun 🍀 isn’t asleep at the wheel!!!

Crazy how the non-quads streaks go. one day good, the next few trips none. Best wishes for success on the overnight for both of you.

Thanks as always. My new fav name for me is dud as in dud streak. We just got home. The Mrs with her usual Nickel DDB ultimate x 3 line game hit for over 6,000 nickels. 👍 pic coming. It offset 1/3 of my mistakes. 😬. Meaning not winning a darn thing.

I could be wrong cause I rarely play this game, but I think the strategy is to not hold the kicker. She always does and usually nails it too. I don’t know what the EV difference is. Anyway, the leprechaun 🍀 stayed with her for most of the session 😊

Boy, I must have done something really bad to have the Bizarro VP machines let me play Joker Kings over 2 hours straight from 3 to 9 lines at a time and not hit a single Quad. I didn’t spill any drinks on the machines, didn’t slam the buttons or glass, sanitized the machine before after playing it……Guess it was my vocabulary.

Sorry Olds. I just got over a bad streak regarding quads that was nothing like yours. I don't as many hours or hands per session and am only playing single line DDB. BTW, playing straight single line DDB, you never hold the kicker. Not sure if the AWAKS are progressive, when the EV might call for holding the kicker.

They are regular machines not progressive. The Mrs says that without the Ultimate X feature, she cannot do as well. More often than not, on a bad session, one hit with a multiplier will bail her out for the day. I’ve seen it happen many times. I don’t know the strategy well with the Ultimate X feature myself. The only big difference I remember is trying to get a full house is important because if it connects, the next hand multiplier is 12. I think that comes into play when there are 2 Aces toward a full house. I guess Wizard has the info on his site.

Heading up to Bizarro for a Doobie Brothers concert. Thomas Johnston is just a couple of weeks younger than me. 😊 Should be good. Looking forward to it. May play a tiny bit. 😬
