I played $1 TDD and I was down about $4K. I hit only one quad. I was dealt with 4 to royal about 10 times but didn’t hit any. Then I switched to JoB to see if I could hit royal and suddenly I hit 4 aces with kicker on 2nd hand, only won $125.
All worst things happened at same time. All what I wanted to do is smashing the machine...
Anyone had any similar experience?
Bad luck happened

But think of all your comp points! Way to trash cash! Gimmick games alarm me. I prefer low variance, low stress JOB and BP area; much cheaper rent. I was begging for a $125 JOB quad yesterday. I should have stayed on a hot machine, but worried about repeating the previous trip.

Thx guys. After losing this, I only have about $5000 profit in this year. (I was up $15000 so far this year by last month but I was on a losing streak later.) And the casino promotion ended - no free play for me, so every game is negative now.
So think I should quit now until next opportunity.

The longer you play the more the true odds come in to play. You were up 15,000 and now you are up 5,000. The odds of the game are reflected over time.

If you want to see a lot of 4 aces with a kicker hands, play Deuces Wild. This happens because you hold all the 2s. At least it's a five of a kind.
If I was up $5K for the year, I would take my wife somewhere nice and it wouldn't be a casino. The problem with video poker is not how much you win, it's how much you lose between wins. I'm sure you know that. If not, I have a feeling you will soon.

Happens to me all of the time. And when playing deuces, I sometimes get strings of quads without any deuces.
