I feel a dealt Royal coming

Thanks hophoofer! Actually, I can do the same thing about taking a leak. I can't explain it. It is just something I can do. I will start getting this feeling, sort of an awareness, you know. And then, bingo, sometime within the next few hours, sure enough, there I go, taking a leak in the bathroom! It's uncanny, I know, but again, I feel so blessed that the Lord bestowed this talent upon me!!
That's a good analogy actually.

Long-term, everyone is going to take a leak just a little less than they put in.

In any hour, there might only be a 10% chance of taking a leak. But it's going to happen eventually.

You can be a recreational leaker or a pro, or a martingale leaker where you drink twice as much every hour until it happens.

You can hold it, you can try to force it...

...but eventually the math works out. Ahhhhhhhh.

I, for one, am above bathroom humor. I save my humor for these forums, and when I do post: it is such a relief.....

Gee, 7 million hands? That would be like playing 290 days straight at a blazing 1000 HPH. No sleeping, eating, using the can ect.

But your OP got me to thinking - I've never had a dealt royal, except on Dream Card. I must be due. So, today I sat down at a Royal Deal machine - where a dealt royal pays $10k. Same BDLX paytable as non RD with no extra coins.

I didn't get a dealt royal, but did get 3 $400 quads in 300 hands. Wanting to preserve a nice win while playing a little more, I switched to Bonus RD and got 3 more quads (all for $125) in 251 hands. Shoulda stuck to BDLX.

My previous session was completely quadless.

Every losing hand puts you closer to a winning one. Strive on.

Yes. That's the only logic they can understand.

Really not that hard to go through 7 million hands. I usually play 4 sessions a week for a total of about 30,000 hands. So that’s 1.5 million hands a year. In less than 5 years of play you have played 7 million hands.

Wow! My fingers are sore and my eyes are watering just thinking about consistently playing that much.
