The Streak is Over

[shadowman]

A million hands a years is a lot and one should average over one dealt RF a year at that rate ... unless of course those aren't all dealt hands. If it was all ten play then you'd only have 100K dealt hands and wouldn't expect a dealt RF but once in every six years.  Do you keep track of the number of dealt hands?

1st .25 Deuces Wild Sam Town Casino - Diamonds $1,000
2nd $1.00 DDB Golden Moon Casino - Spades $4,400+
3rd $1.00 BPD Riverwalk Casino - Spades $6,300+I'm jealous, having never even had one on this site.

Don't give up on that 3rd dealt RF just yet. I once has 3 of them over a two month period. Of course, then I went a couple of years before my next. Do good things come in threes?

I'll start playing multi-hand $VP. Hope the RF comes before I go broke.

damule,
Thanks for the encouragement. Sweet C already started hers hitting the Progressive AWAK. So, you are "due" for a handful of dealt Royals....right?

[Lucky Larry]

Positive thoughts VP. What is the old saying, "A streak of a thousand wins begins with the first win!"

I don't play multi-hands very often.  If I do its normally only triple play.
 
I don't track my hands to a tee but I can get a pretty good count by hourly rate, # of trips.

Here is a collage of one of my better 2 day trips.  Oddly enough it has my last dealt Royal which was July of 09.

Larry,
 
I will do my best to carry forward the torch and try and keep my streak alive while you start to build your next streak.
 
One thing though...  How the heck do you guys get dealt RF's?  That's something I've yet to do.  Would be a real rush.  Guess I've got to add it to my list.  Would be nice to see one of those in my STP or UX games on a multiplier.  Guess since I haven't gotten one yet, that the odds are moving in my favor.  Maybe I should play more dollars (doh!!!)
 
Wached a lady hit 8K playing dollars on STP with a 2x multipler (RF) in the diamond lounge at Harrah's on my last trip.  Actually that what was started my semi-train wrech.  As my wife says, I could see your face change as you tried to get yours.  Well.  didn't happen.

Maybe your streak was taking a nap, or on vacation.  Don't say it's over quite yet. 
 
To be honest, I was more than a little bit jealous.  I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way, but won't say it.  Don't get me wrong - I was happy for you.  And I am always happy to see ANYBODY win.  But that tiny voice inside (with the red cape and horns) always growls and reminds me, "why not your machine?".
 
I'm sure your streak will continue - and hope that it will throughout 2011.
 
I'm also hoping that I can ride your coat tails.  I was very excited when I got a royal on New Year's Day, then read about yours.  I had only seen a dealt royal in person once in my life, and not on my screen.   I was excited for you getting 5 at once - a dream come true for any VP player.
 
Last Saturday while playing - I was looking off in the distance, and suddenly heard the jackpot song.  I was thinking - damn, why couldn't that be me, and turned back to my screen.  Whoopsie - it was me.  And it was a dealt royal. 
 
So I've joined the club - and boy it IS something that I'll remember forever.
 
When I don't win myself - I look at everybody's pictures of their wins and remind myself that it does happen.  That's a great feeling.
 
Thank you to all for sharing your wins.  It gives one hope.
 
LL - don't give up, your streak will be back after it's little rest, refreshed and better than ever.  Go get 'em tiger.
