Nine straight winning sessions.

Post by billryan »

Just finished my ninth straight winning session.
Nothing special, win wise, but the Franklin I started with now has three brothers and two cousins named Jackson.
All on NSU Deuces.
I've bought in for $100 each session, and the lowest I've been is $21. That was on a five hand All Star , playing $3 a hand Was dealt four to a Royal( 2 Dueces) and picked up
three wild Royals. About an hour later, a full house put me at $100.70 and I called it a day.
Playing a single line at $1( max coin), hit two Wild Royals and a straight flush in short order and bailed up $70. Other sessions have been somewhere in between. I'm thinking four deuces is overdue, btw.

Living dangerously that session. Congratulations on getting the hell out as soon as you got back to three figures. I'd be nervous as hell sweating it out in hopes of even attaining $90 after that plunge. This kind of session always leaves me completely fried.

Only in Emerald Island where players can bet odd amounts per play. Winning sessions are a good feeling to the player, so good for you on that.

Playing Deuces Wild myself, when you go on a dry spell where no wild royals, natural royals, and quad ducks are hit, it will eat through your bankroll alive. Be mentally prepared for it.

I'm aware. I've had more than my share of wild royalist in recent weeks, but no quad deuces.
There is really little difference between playing for $1 on the penny machines and playing five quarters. The payout is proportional, and the comps at EI are crazy.
Today, around noon, they were walking around handing out Nathan's grilled hotdogs, two at a time.
By the way- ten straight. Started with $100, made money the first two hands and never looked back. At one point was up $27 but wanted to play to 200 points and ended up cashing out for $116. Penny Ante, I know but I wanted to do 200 hands in twenty minutes and came close.
Be hitting Sunset for a free Starbucks,free slot tournament, half price buffet and a $4 movie, plus another short session.
It's my lucky day.
Hit DMV to register my car and get my Nevada license.
I'd made a 1030 appointment, was called at 1023, and done at 1048. My friends all said it would take two to three hours.

If you've pulled off nine straight winning sessions without 4 deuces or natural royals? That's a real good run!

Haven't had a royal on a real machine since January, and the only four deuce is the hand I wrote about a month ago where I held two and got four on one hand and two wild royals on a five play.
In Jan/Feb, it seemed like I was getting four deuces every day.

Congratulations on your streak. NSUD is probably my favorite game. High returns, low volatility and you can often play a long time on a small bankroll. The majority of my best hits have been on NSUD and its family which I play 90%. My first dealt RF's were all on NSUD twice for $5K. With its family of DWB and Dbl DWB I been dealt at least 8 dealt multi-hands the last being for $10K playing 50 hand 5¢ Ugly Deuces. Last month its cousin Dbl DWB dealt me a sweet 4Deuces/Ace on 100 hands @2¢ for $4K.

Let it become your best VP friend and it will reward you over the long-term. BTW: The Deuces do seem to come in streaks. The very next trip after the dealt RF for $10K a 100 play machine dealt me the 4 Deuces for $5K. Sometimes they come in bunches and others I've played hours and gotten more RF than 4D.

     Same for me...no Royal since Jan. I am hitting the quad deuces right on schedule for the most part. Sometimes twice a day. Most sessions without one quad deuce hit is three.

Hey olds..
On two recent trips I have had 2 X 50 hands of 3 deuces without a hit only to catch one holding one and once none.    One of those nights I hit 5 RF( one holding nothing), 4 DwA but only 1-plain 4D the entire night. My last trip I caught 7 4D on a 100 hand of 3 D followed about 20 hands later with 7 more on a 3D hold. I doubled my money and eliminated my losses in about 30 minutes before I lost my timing. You never know but gosh darn I love them when they hit.
