The Path V
Scuffling Saturday. I won $33 on my $30 Resorts BP FP. The dreaded one coin JOB grinders were living it up on their usual $5 machines. I alternated among four machines. I was spared the usual evisceration, but it was a boring and confounding grind. I finally got a premium quad after 145 minutes of substantial max betting. Bad timing: a one coin bet. Resorts simply wore me down. Happy New Yawn. Net Day: -$78.

So, the "dreaded one coin grinders" were living it up on their usual $5 machines, while you were grinding away playing one coin $1 machine. Hmm.FAA wrote: ↑Sat Jan 17, 2026 2:05 pmScuffling Saturday.

Better luck next time.

No. Anything but a min grind. The quad caught me in a weak spin after the endless Resorts rope a dope exhausted my max patience.

You continue to quest after a hand pay jackpot. Yet, instead of playing a lesser denomination at full coin, you continue down this same path which you've carved deep into the forest. See the trees, knock your denomination down to something that is sustainable throughout your entire session and you may find more positive results in 2026.

Just to clarify here, I really could care less if FAA plays short coin or not. The decisions FAA makes when gambling affect FAA alone and not me.
Many members here have offered and suggested to FAA, the same advice I have offered regarding the pitfalls of short coining but yet it just continues. If FAA is looking for sympathy from anyone here when posting pictures of short coin "hits" and their "only if" results, FAA should rethink posting such pictures.
I continue though, to offer FAA wishes of good luck when playing.
