The Dallas Wings blew the Sun out of the building, 109-87. Local darling Paige Bueckers had 21, which I gather was the big draw! The Sun catch a break Friday against the Fever. Clark is out for two weeks, sending Fever ticket prices into the proverbial toilet.

Yep! The Sun is now 0 for 5. 😬. Speaking of O for five, Custer’s last stand did not go well. I hope they are happy. They have the recent windfall back! Probably not happy yet! Hard to believe 3-9 lines of play for 9 hours and 4 Deuces never hit once. 5 Aces one time provided only a temporary relief from disaster. If I had to guess……average 5 lines so 600/hr x 5 = 3,000 x 9 hours is appx 27,000 hands this trip. Should have had 4 Deuces 5 times. Shoulda, woulda, coulda…..

i was at mohegan tuesday and the entire section in sky casino from old hi limit area over to arena entrance was roped off. while i was there they were working on old slant tops..every machine open with rectangle box next to each one...new boards no doubt..im gonna go back over weekend to see if pay tables downgraded....ddb was 9/6...sddb was 7/5....tdb was 9/6. the same thing happened on other side of sky ( near the bar ) a few weeks ago. i dont go nearly as much as i used to and with good reason...i mostly play single line and the 4 of a kind frequency is ridiculous for the games i play...kicker 4 of a kind are a annual event it seems..there are hardly any serious players left and with good reason..they are much smarter than me

I hear you. Supposedly, they are just changing the card readers. We will see after things are fully opened again. They have been playing games for a long time now with pay tables. I know the anti conspiracy people will say where’s the proof on the RNGs being not totally random. Only those of us who play millions of lifetime hands know something is not quite right. For instance, I know of several machines that will get you a very small win right after you sit down and play. Then after you increase your bet will head straight down without ever turning back. First even my Mrs. said no can’t be then had her sit down with me and see first hand. Ok I know there is order even in chaos, but you have to be a true regular to know what I am talking about. Why still go????? The place is very clean and most of the employees are super nice. Except for losing almost all of the time, the overall experience is really nice. That said, as of now, my trips are cutting way back and bets will be overall very small.

I can't even break even on BP without hourly quads. I simply can't afford any more weekly visits. It's taken too big a chunk out of my hide. I don't even remember my last RF. If I go in the summer, I will just grab comp rooms and destroy my card after using the free play.

I wonder if they will pull my free room reservations I have going out several months with my minimal play I have planned. I made a last minute decision to head up tonight as the weather will be bad overnight and into tomorrow afternoon. No room either. Plan is to play a few 2 and 3 cent games. A few remain and they have enough flexibility for the clone. Paytables 96 or so, but in a short run, anything can happen. The 99 tables haven’t helped me at all after I hit the windfall recently.
