Vman I too have had sessions in which I started to take pictures well into the session after hitting a few premium hands. It usually seems that I will start taking pictures after hitting my 3rd or 4th premium hand in the session and miss taking pics of the first few premium hits.

Congratulations on that $7,000 memory. Just goes to show what can happen with bankroll and guts. I've noticed that dollar machines can deal a mercy premium hand once a session, but only the mid level premiums, not the grand daddy. 



     Interesting post FAA and right on the money for today anyway. I just rolled in from an overnight with the Mrs. I played just DDS dollars on a single line most of the night Deuces Wild. Beat me up pretty good too. Then I started playing 2 lines. After about a half hour, I was dealt 3 deuces. The 2nd line came through with the last deuce on the 5th card. Good for 800 bucks. I was po d at myself cause after exhausting the 500 bankroll, I hit the ATM for another 200. This came through in the nick of time. I quit immediately. I have a pic, but have been bothering Phil too much lately. I will keep it on my phone for awhile.

     Edited to add....I absolutely cannot do a thing with job even on the 99.54 quarter game. Royals are hundreds of thousands of hands apart and quads are so streaky, it is either bang or bust. I am surviving much better on DDS deuces wild. Haven't hit a dealt royal since the big one in July and don't expect to, but the quad deuces have been keeping my losses to less than 2 percent.

I'm sick of playing short coin.  So far this year I haven't hit any
royals in Tampa , so it didn't cost me to play the better odds single
coin. In Hollywood I can go full blown "Dancer". --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------How I long for a session of Full Blown Dancer. But I'd be like Dan, increasingly inured to a -$400 day. That can't happen. I feel like a downhill skier with my swerving two to five coin slide system. It's such great fun. Just avoid the trees and snow banks.

Olds, give yourself credit for having the guts to escalate the matter to two lines. Most of us would continue to suffer in silence or simply give up and go home. Your perseverance paid off, leaving in the black after the nightmare start. JOB at Caesars finally paid off for me today with two solid hits and a visit from an old friend.To cap off the celebration, I rolled myself an unlikely five point winner at the craps table in my weekly cameo there. Details in The Path. Happy Lunar New Year.

[quote=Vman96] It's better to be lucky than play good games![/quote]I agree.  8/5 DDB is the best DDB game they have in these parts.  It's a terrible game that I don't play anymore.  It's also the most popular game in our casinos.  Go figure?  It's not so bad on dealt royal days!
