Hypothetical situation: It would be really cool if the contest CASH OUT button were moved a few spaces to the left of the DRAW key. If a member is multitasking, it might be easy to repeatedly hit that cash out button during a contest session. TY!
If you hit "Cash Out", doesn't it ask you if you REALLY want to cash out before actually doing it ? Also, ENTER key works for Deal and Draw.

Im not doing well in this contest at all....BUT its a hella lot of fun imho.My wife loves this game and plays in casinos when possible--me I suck so I have avoided it---but after this contest I probably will have a go. Yes its a high risk reward type, but hella fun at the level I play it could provide a hand pay....not many games do.

Oh faygo, We heard you loud and clear, the first time. It's impossible to please everyone all of the time! Anyhow, I am grateful to the powers that be to keep changing the games in each contest for the challenge and variety! When a less than desirable game appears, at least it is soon replaced and therefore, tolerable or even skipable!  It's still fun to try new games that just may be the magic ones to hit in casinos for us, next visit!

Also, ENTER key works for Deal and Draw.  You're right, Billy about the 2nd chance for cash out, during the contest. I am just saying it provides TWO extra brain drains during a contest that requires all the brain power I can provide!When my right index finger is about to fall off from using the cordless mouse in the contest, I switch to left hand and keys cvbnm (more conveniently located than dfghj as contest suggests) for selecting keys and hit that space bar with my left thumb for enter, deal or draw.. This means my left wrist is resting on the counter/desk top. There are special wrist cushions that can help starve off carpel tunnel when playing contests, computering, etc. I imagine a rolled/folded dish cloth or odd sock (OR that odd mitten/glove that all Michiganders save just in case the other ever shows up!) or similar can provide the same benefit.

marie, so you are trying the "I love  it approach" .. I am perplexed as to why our whining isn't working anymore. Do you think the games have been rigged against it?

faygo, That is always a possibility! Let us know, when you figure out what works to our advantage for contests! Bottle it and sell it after sending me a message on how it works! ;-)

I'm glad I started this topic, because, ya know, I was thinking about staring up a games machine manufacturing company, because I have these wonderful ideas of making gimmicky games with lots of differing bells and whistles, making the card designs wierd from the standard designs.......just lots of new things to keep the gambling public interested.  Anybody care to invest in this manufacturing company with me?  We'd clean up, I can see that!  I can get a blue heron together in a few weeks.  What do you think, out there?

Thats what we need on the video poker games a "whine" button. That particular button would get worn out and sticky in no time.

Feline coudn't find a pro whining emoticon, but this might make a good addition to our list.
