Positive Mental Attitude

Post by FAA »

I always feel that something good will eventually occur in a session. Beyond that, the important lesson of this weekend’s trips is to delay a session when undesirable patrons are on the bank. Needy, desperate couple? Button slamming nut? Yes, consecutive days. Go for coffee or a stroll for peace of mind. The basket of deplorables will probably leave within the hour.

"I always feel that something good will eventually occur in a session"

i do too and im not sure if anyone ever walks in feeling down on their luck right before starting their session trip.

i been going to the casino twice a month this year and every week since my trip to vegas and have been showing a nice little profit, the offers keep coming and so do i, i went hard this year on video poker and its been kind to me my last royal flush i got felt more like 4 deuces if you know what i mean but better than going home broke, in Kotch book playing on after a nice win is a bad decision and so far i have to agree hit and run does work but can it forever? doesn't have to just keeps boosting my free play , i peeked at one lady and her free play was 145$ this was at tropicana ac and i had a meager 15$ x2 (w/ wife card) now im approaching her lvl of free play , is there a cap on a free play? after playinng hard video poker past 10 months i see the free play is the heart and soul of VP

Why? After all, the machine might be "hot", and you'll give up the chance to hit more good hands if you don't play on.

you could but if its a negative game and your comp does not bring you over 100% then playing on is risking your winnings, i either win a nice some of money and i can go home happy and let the free play reload or i can loss my winnings and go home confused different strokes for different folks

Kotch was on to something. If I’ve hit a quad, I’m getting while the getting is good. If it’s too early in the session, I start anew elsewhere. Happy to escape with a minor loss Sunday.
