Re: Bizarro World 2024!
That’s the next game plan. Probably no big rewards, but maybe avoid the huge bankroll drain and just chill. Also maybe slow down the play a bit. T least I was able to offset some market gains this year by dumping Disney. I can always buy it back in a month to avoid the wash sale rules. I also screwed up by not buying ViSA last July. O well. Todays plan is to head up in a few hours, play a bit, and use some lose or lose food credits. Looks like the weather will keep it a bit above freezing around here.

Oh yes, that reminds me. My CET TCs stay put as long as I keep adding to them at least every six months. I should plan to target an extravagant blowout meal after every +$500 day. I may have a long wait of course.

Solo trip last night. One nice hit, but I succumbed to the “ Discipline “ virus. It’s supposed to last only a week or two, but it seems to just keep “ hanging on “. I think in part due to stubbornness on the Royalless streak. By the way, 362,000 hands and counting. Play was a combo of all my usual games. 1-9 lines depending. Most of the play was at a much smaller bet level. Didn’t seem to matter in the end. I think I set another record or close to one. 41 9/6 JOB hands without 2 pair or better. I switched to regular Deuces Wild and of course the first single line deal was a quad without the Deuces. ( same machine ).

Sounds like another frustrating and unsuccessful trip. Hang in there Olds. Hopefully, better times are ahead.

Thanks Bill. One last 2024 trip is planned for Monday evening. A small one. Best to not end the year even more frustrated. I always fall back on the old saying. If you have your health, you have everything.

Well I was determined to not be a loser on the last trip of 2024, so I found a very old 3 cent Spin Poker game and my favorite game inside…. Bonus Deuces Wild. Aside from the terrible paytable, this is a great machine for my Martingale Clone method of playing because you can choose from one to 20 lines and if needed move up to a 5,10, or 20 cent game on the same machine. Luck came early. Plus 22 bucks and I only held one Deuce. Back home for awhile and off the roads for the night. Happy New Year everyone. The Mrs and I may venture up tomorrow evening.
