All it takes is 5 bucks, a 40,000 to one shot, and walk away for the rest of the year with 4k. Just don’t win it as a Ct resident. Then you are talking about a 300 buck or so haircut that you can’t get back.

That’s been the plan for years now. I am still bummed about missing a $625 quad and settling for $250.

Glad your first day of therapy went well. From personal experience, you won't glow in the dark. :)

Thanks Bill. I may even sneak away for a few hours to Bizarro in the next few days.

And yet, you continue to play less than full coin. What do you expect?

Well yes, I understand. I just wish that I had timed one of my two or three max bets to coincide with that magic hand. I think that I will patronize this machine same time next Saturday for hopefully a profitable five minutes. It happened to be in a surprisingly playable mode where I couldn't really lose on it. Of course any machine is a potential landmine and you must carefully tread.

Best of luck to you. I know, that you know that time has nothing to do with video poker, but good luck just the same.

They are all land mines. Just don’t step on one. Or in most cases sit down on one. 😬 I know one old timer who won’t stand or sit at a machine. He insists that even without his card, they know who he is from his weight! 🙀. So he stands off to the side and plays. I would agree that he may be totally off his “ Rocker “, but I have seen him win some really big hands over the years even after playing a few minutes! 😂
