VP plans for 2016

The lighter side... playing for entertainment, less concerned about "the math."

Back from another battle with 4 to the royal. Wife saw it 3 times, myself 4 more times for a total of 11 times today, and you know how many came in on the 5th card. Its going to take a lot of work by someone to convince me that the machines WHERE I PLAY are not programed. We move a lot and if they are programed then that would be the reason to see so many in a short time. We are not ones that sit at the same machine for hours.1 in 2765 is the odds to see 4 off the deal yet i see it every 600 to 800 hands.

Less than 24 hours after my bleak post above, the VP Gods were merciful. My $25 FP became $34. I was dealt KAJ plus a fourth heart. All in max coin machismo. I dumped the two cards and braced myself. QT on the draw. $1,000 Royal Flush!!
I can now continue my low rolling MO and still break even on the year at CET. Such was the case in 2015. A $1,006 Royal Flush enabled me to finish $49 ahead at the bankrupt trio in AC. Happy Easter!

I was dipping in and out of max coin wagering. My usual erratic gear shifting. I happened to time it right. Based on the prior day's success, I concluded that the bank was hot. I even wanted to play the same machine. But an elderly lady on the end had designs on monopolizing two machines and waved me away. I went with the flow, intending to gloat over a fast quad. While the meter was ascending to four thousand coins, I slid over and gave her a hug. No hard feelings!

Think outside the box. I obtained an elegant check for $1,033 at the cage. The teller handed me off to a pants suit.

Last weekend at Seneca Niagara, my wife and I were a combined zero for thirty-five on one card draws to four to the royal (dealt seven times on five line).

Earlier this year, at South Point, I had two consecutive complete whiffs on 50 play. Going zero for eleven is not really very unlikely. There's just under an 80% chance that you'll go zero for the next eleven tries, as well.

It seems that players are much more likely to cash in when merely dealt three to a RF. My small sample size over the past fourteen months registers all three hits in those situations. But having just won a grand, I'm not pounding sand.
