Just a couple of questions that I have been ask so I'd like to hear from some others about the amount of time they play VP and around how many hands they estimate they play during a year. I really don't think I play that much and and know other players that play far more than I.
 
Last year I played 545 hours - that's an exact figure.  My estimate of total hands played last year is approximately 450K.  I'm almost entirely a single-line player.  I usually average 400-500 hours a year, which works out to 350K-400K hands.  I'm sure you'll get replies from others who get in more play than that.

Yes, I play a little more. Here's my figures for the last couple of years. I do play a few 3 and 5 play machines but mostly single line.
 
2006: 975 hours - 900K hands (24 RFs)
2007: 822 hours - 750K hands so far (only 11 RFs so far this year)

  Look at the good side - you are guaranteed to hit 13 more in the next 2 months!  Isn't that the way it works?

I been thinking that after the last couple of RFs I did get. This one will start a "hot streak". Alas, it hasn't work out either time.

  Hey WEBMASTER, if CD and Shadow are only 3 star, what does it take to reach 5?
