Wacky days of video poker

Post by olds442jetaway »

For me vp is getting wackier by the minute. All of my play is currently at Mohegan Sun and unfortunately I have not only started a new Royalless streak part 2 with 185k hands and counting, but a Deuces Wildless streak of 30k hands and counting as well.
     The wacky part comes in when in the same time period, Joker Kings hit today 3 straight flushes in 5 hands, and for an hour quads on the same machine averaged about every 30 hands or 4 or so times more than average. Then right after that, the same machine goes forty or so dud hands, a couple of small hits then 40 or so dud hands more.
     No real premium hands hit at all for me, but the wife continues to kill the TDB Multi Streak machine at the nickel level by hitting Aces quads with kickers several times in the same session.
     All of this wacky stuff happening makes all of the wack jobs on the Boardwalk Empire series that just ended seem normal and just another day on the walk.

Ok...this takes the take and just adds more wackiness and of course insult to injury on top of it. Just back from an overnight at Mohegan and saw a great Franki Valli show. Very late last night and early this morning, I decided to go back to job with my old, but modified Martingale clone method. Deuces, one of my favorite games as posted above has been terrible lately along with some other games. The same job machine over a 6 hour period hit 5 deuces quads and 4 other quads. I am happy about the winnings, but never in my millions of hands of playing have I ever hit the same quads 5 times in that time period. I would guess about 3000 hands were played in that session.

Must be an East coast thing. I always get quads frequently when playing games where they don't pay much, but rarely get them at all when playing the games that do. Or when I'm about busted and drop to low denom and 1 credit. Hours go by with nothing then BAM there they are as soon as I drop down.

I have seen that happen to more people including myself than I can count. That could be why Fla Phil's method is working so well so far for him. Lots of hits at 1 coin give more chances at a hit at max bet.
