Hit another one today at the Hollywood Hard Rock.  That's five so far this year.

Congrats Phil, I hit 3 this past Sunday at Four Winds in New Buffalo Michigan myself while playing DreamCard.

Continued good luck to you.

Congrats on the Royal. Since you were playing DDB, did you lose $200 on Bonus Poker first? Are you still doing the white ticket method of $20in and cash out anything above $50?

Yes. I play Bonus Poker to keep from getting seriously behind early. Getting behind causes me problems.

Congratulations. Happy to lack the required DDB skill. It sure took money to make money.

I don't play DDB all the time.   I primarily play Bonus Poker to keep my bankroll requirements as low as possible.  Bonus Poker can be boring at times, so I play DDB when I feel the need to change.   I don't have problems with the strategy changes.  There is nothing magic about the switch back and forth.  It feels good to hit a quad either way.  A royal pays the same in either case.

Phil I'm a bit confused. In another forum posting you mentioned that you play DDB to make up losses that you may incur after playing Bonus Poker. Can you please clarify?

Thanks.

Edited to add: In this other post you mentioned that you change to DDB after losing your Bonus Poker "Strategy Limit" of $200.00.

Thanks again.
