The lighter side... playing for entertainment, less concerned about "the math."

Seinfeld "the Contest"

Post by FloridaPhil »


How many of you remember the classic and outrageously funny Seinfeld episode where the friends all agreed to a contest?  I won't go into the rules of the contest here, but it had something to do with abstaining from personal pleasure.  Enough said.VP is incredibly addictive and I'm determined to break the once a week habit. So far I'm feeling strong and the VP urge hasn't hit me.  At least I've lasted longer than Kramer.  We'll see how it goes.  Anyone out there beat this thing?  I would guess not if you're still here...

I have never watched an episode of Seinfeld. Also I have not actively played VP in a casino since the wife and I went to vegas 6 years ago last month.

Maybe you can see how long you can go without posting? Quitting forever only lasted a few days last time. (I know, you did stop posting in the strategy forum. Kind of like someone who "gives up gambling" but keeps playing everything but their usual penny slot)

When he finally does stop posting, we only wish he could be here to hear us saying thanks to God, and God's like, I don't ever do this, but I'm reincarnating you to get you off our forum here in Heaven.

Not another play or post on this site until August 1.... I hope you can make it. If you can't, I'll just be more convinced you're Florida Phil's twin.

You have always said you play for the enjoyment. So why do you want to cut back?

[quote=case]You have always said you play for the enjoyment. So why do you want to cut back?[/quote]I've grown bored with video poker, at least for the moment.  I plan to continue my VP vacations and comped trips to Hollywood.  I'll play on this website whenever I can.  Working on my old cars is consuming a lot of my energy right now as well. I've run out of things to talk about on this forum.  Let's let someone else come up with the topics.  I hope they come up with something new and interesting.  I'll reply, but I think it's time to back off a bit.

I'll be crowing plenty after my next RF. It's taking too long. Just watching others hit RFs and suffering in silence. I do have my own TR thread. No topic per se, but a thermometer of conditions in my area.
