Just added up 2015 losses. Minus $7,105 for the year. Not feeling good about that, but still up for the last 9 years, playing exclusively in AC. 5 positive years, 4 negative years, but the games I did well on from 2006-2009 are long gone. Guess I know which way this is trending. Will almost certainly play less this year.

 thanks for the report. i think everyone who posts pictures or talks about winning sessions should do the same. welcome to the club of adjusting your play to match the new reality of machine payouts. the 'trend' you talk about is the same as i have seen. it could be just a downgrade of the paytables, but the losses seem to be larger than the paytable reduction.

I'll chime in, I'm up for the year. Not buy a Cadillac up but up. I had a couple losing sessions this year that hurt but not too terribly. I'm looking forward to Las Vegas in March, so trying to hold off until then but I may get out once or twice before then.

Thank goodness for that Jan RF to tamp down 2015 loss. I don't think I did too bad, but I played barely over 120 hours in my fifty plus AC days. Rough guesstimate.

(let's see how you like it...)TEDLARK, I'm Confused.Where and when did you post about on this forum, these two alleged LOSING SESSIONS you report having that (apparently) sabotaged your overall 2015 results (and nixed your new Cadillac)?  (i'm guessing) They served to shoot you back down and out of the alleged "80%  or 4 out of 5" winning stratosphere you previously occupied the last decade or so, correct?Please explain......

DaBurglar for one off the top of my head, the forum post entitled: "I'd like to report a DABURGLARY."

My other losing session was a trip to Tunica over Memorial Day weekend of 2015. I thought Ihad posted about it but when I reviewed my posts against my records I realized I didn't post anything about it. To make up for my oversight can I wash your van?

These two losing sessions did not sabotage my 2015 results; they were just the ebb and flow of video poker.
