January was a huge windfall. I don’t know if you remember. I checked the casino records and I was up over 17,000 in January. Since then, straight down. Another beating Saturday night. I only need 93 more status points to be good at the level I am at through next April. My average pay table is still at least 98 percent. Still have 99.54,98.91, and 98.8 which I have played a lot. I will check in a few minutes and see how much I am down now for the year. Probably between 5-10k. Also, sometimes, I’m just too busy to record every single trip on the forum. Anyway, I’ll write back after I check and see where I am now. Also most of the poor paytable play is Pennie’s, nickels, dimes or even quarters sometimes. The big coin in days are dollars.

Just checked. Down over 4k now for the year. I’ll see if I can ballpark how much the percentage has changed. Percentage loss of coin in is just about .0037. So down just under 1/2 percent for the year. Of course that includes a bit of free play, so without the free play, it would be close to 1 percent. Still not bad, but to me it seems terrible to lose over 21k between February and now. Anyway, once we get the rest of the tier points, it will be fewer visits and mostly 2-5 cent when I can go. Will be a very busy summer with medical stuff going on.

Ok TT, here’s one I can only laugh at otherwise I would cry. I didn’t post this trip from Saturday night yet just didn’t get to it. I had to run up there to activate entries for a big cash drawing. I intended to just play a little bit, but I ended up playing six hours on spin poker quarter bonus deuce is wild. Busted the budget I had with me and since Saturday night is very busy and I wanted to bring home some takeout food. I had a half hour to wait to kill. I put one of my few remaining $20 bills in the same game but at a three cent level on a different machine and in just a few hands……..

Think of it this way, 4K+ would be the cost of a nice cruise for you and the Mrs. You spent your recreational/discretionary funds in a way that you enjoyed the most. My way of thinking about it. More importantly, hope the medical issues are minor and that you will be ok. That is more important.
