olds, I'm praying for some strong winds to blow the leaves off your property and to blow in some good luck to you.

Thanks! Unfortunately, another bust. 209,000 Royalless hands and counting and 22,000 hands without quad deuces. The combination is a sure fire budget buster. We got the strong winds the last couple of days, but they just blew in the neighbors leaves. I think we have less than 3 hours left to do. I’ll take good health over successful gambling though any day. Fingers crossed on the market as well.

What, Olds worry? Only 5 RF cycles behind. A lot of suite profit for the Sun.

A hiatus is just over the horizon. Overnight tonight on tap with the Mrs. So far this year she has been able to hold her own even with inferior nickel pay tables. My 99 percent pay tables this year seemed to mean absolutely 0 somehow. A record breaking VP deficit on my end unfortunately.

Nope. Another VP. disaster. The Mrs was able to accomplish her usual. ( pix tomorrow ). My 99.54 paytable quickly translated into a 995.4 loss for the trip. One quad. Few Full houses. The last few trips took care of one of my RMDs in no time. I can’t explain it so I am switching over the exact Mrs game and denomination and her exact hand holds which differ just a bit from the true math. My first test will be late Thursday evening. A solo trip. One downside. It usually requires 6-8 hours of play. I play that much or more anyway though.
For me…….225,000 Royalless hands and counting. Also add another 16,000 hands to what I posted above without quad deuces or 38,000 hands. My play was evenly split between JOB and Airport Deuces Wild. I was never even dealt 3 deuces for the entire 16,000 hands. I played between 3 and 5 lines at a time as an average.
