All we can do is loss minimization, which I recommend. The best way to minimize losses is not play at all - but what's the fun in that?

Would have to disagree there, at least with fpdw (100.76% ER) and 10/6 DDB (100.06% ER) or any positive situation; but these are two games I play. A better investment than the stock market in some ways. One thing I think we can agree on universally...is the math.
Cheers

Even with the positive games you are fortunate enough to have available to you, there is a reasonable likelihood of being down in an individual session. Since the poster to whom I was responding seems to be focussed on session results, I was thinking along those lines when i posted my comment.

vp reminds me of the Greyhounds chasing the rabbit on the racetrack. What you want is there, you just can't seem to catch it most times. Back in the 1970s, I used to go watch the dogs at Plainfield Ct. One night, a dog actually caught the rabbit and they stopped the race. I quit going when I discovered how they treated the dogs before and after the races. Thank goodness for people who adopt them after their racing career is over. We have many here in town that were adopted.

Fpdw...Took one on the chin tonight...-$240. Plenty of
Opportunities, just didn't get there. A lot of natural quads. Too bad it wasn't bonus deluxe.
On to the next.

Cheers Hello Dan. Sorry to see that you discontinued your YouTube channel, but I understand. I subscribed and watched daily. For VP, I play mainly DDB and bonus poker. It seems every time I then switch to Deuces Wild, the natural quads start coming. Best of luck next time!

Thanks for watching Minnesota. Like a Phoenix, it
Might rise again in the future, but not anytime soon. Too much going on.
As a quick side note, players shouldn't worry about any one session but many sessions to compare results. So it's not the wins/losses of a few sessions but how people handle it that counts. Unfortunately at some point we have to measure how the business is doing. I like to keep track month to month, personal preference. The important thing is don't base how you are doing on one or a few sessions. Cheers.

Fpdw .25c...Royal and a quad deuce
Just one of those nights when the vp gods decide it's time to give some back to us mortals. Hit the Royal and a quad deuce to boot fairly quickly. About 70 minutes of
Play. Unfortunately felt a bit cocky and made a decision to take $400 of the winnings and play 9/7/5 .25c 5 play double bonus and dumped back some of the win out the door. Oh well, at least I didn't tilt too hard and give back any more which I have done in a rare few times in the past. So racking up a nice sizeable win of +$700 and leaving before giving back anymore tonight.
Cheers!
