I hope it keeps working for you.  I did the same thing at the Venetian. i was there for 5 days and the deuces kept me going a lot longer than just playing ddb-I went from .25 deuces to .25 DDB.

Phil,
Congratulations on the Aces. I have a similar philosophy for playing deuces.

I can make you really feel good about your Aces.. Started playing   5¢ multi-hand last Sunday. Dealt 3 Aces on 50 hands DDB-not one 4 Aces; Then 3-Aces with kicker on TDB 50 hands - not one hit.

So I went to my old standby DW to stay around for awhile. 16 straight hands without a Deuce being dealt.

Took my remaining $ and playing 25¢ Super Aces triple play. Dealt 3 Aces twice...result...3 Aces on 3 hands each time. Finally, back to 5¢ multi-hand DW playing 5-10 hands at a time.

Should have known it would be a lousy night. Ms. L hits RF in first 5 minutes and gets dealt quad on 25 hands DDB a few minutes later.

Deuces is so weird.  Sometimes it seems like they removed all of the deuces from the machine.  I even have to look up once in a while to see if I'm on the right game...  Other times the deuces are all over the place.   I once got 3 sets of deuces in about 15 minutes sitting at the Beau Rivage bar.  I was lucky enough to move up in denomination with each set and walked away with $1,500.  I'm done posting my Free DDB results.  I'm convinced this is the best way for me to play.  It does exactly what I want "low hourly investment with a chance of a $100+ score once in a while".

Phil,
Man don't I know. I've spent hours playing DW and never be dealt 3 deuces, then boom 3 deuces a couple of times within a couple of hands. Or, hold 3 deuces on multi-hand multiple times and not see quad deuces then all of a sudden a quad pops up. But, generally I like it a whole lot better than DDB.

Keep up the hits.
