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.
Playing mornings with coffee? And later with beer? Thats a lot of bathroom breaks!
Reminded me of the old saying about those two drinks,"you can't really BUY them you just RENT them for a while". ;)

7 million single line hands, or 7 million hands counting a 10 line machine, 10 hands?

When you write how many hands you played, I always assumed it was the total number, not the number of deals you played.

7 million single line hands in 5 years is a major effort no matter what.

Single line? Anathema for Olds!

I basically played for a hundred minutes on the house today. They teased me with some three RF hands, but came a cropper. Pretty frustrating session.

I wasn’t feeling a thing when I was recently dealt a RF. Seventy five cent bet to prove it.

I see a machine with a hand pay in your future. I can’t make out which machine or even the casino. All I know is it is in A/C and it is not Harrah’s Marina. I was dealt a wild royal today, but it wasn’t even enough to give it capital letters.

Harrah’s took me on quite the excruciating roller coaster ride yesterday. I finally hit a max quad, and when I jumped my heels hit my butt.

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!!
For some reason I just saw this funny post. Your comparison is complete wrong.

Taking a leak is a due event unless you have unlimited bladder, where hitting any hands in VP is not due.

Time to wake up and keep your mind straight.

Actually, taking a leak may NOT be a "due" event. There is a condition called "Insensible fluid loss" in which the body can release excess fluid through sweating and not through urination. Many healthcare professionals are familiar with this as well as some who have gone through dessert training in the military.
