Re: The Path
Sunday Funday. I played $10 of my $25 Caesars FP on JOB quarters. Sticky button, so moved to dollars. I made $25 from the next $15. Sensed a hot machine. I soon got three Jacks. Fourth gave me my $125 quad. I lost my $25 table FP, rolling six to seven craps. With the big hit, no need for Harrah's. Lunch on the pier. Watched NFL on the premises and left. Net Day +$136. Much more fun photographing a $125 quad than a $31 quad. Sunny Shore Sunday.

The non RF or Straight Flush ideal day. Max quad early, then enjoy the day without the itch to return. Caesars VP area is much gloomier than Harrah's. But after a three digit hit, the need to move two miles diminishes. +$100 makes the AC trip worthwhile.

FAA,
Congrats on your recent quads. I was at Resorts today and was surprised at how busy the place was for a Wednesday afternoon. Keep hitting those quads early. It seems like VP always starts in a hole and it is a struggle to get back to even.

Wait, I was a loyal Resorts intruder all summer. I walked down to play the promo game, then bailed for Harrah's. I had no craving for a Caesars quad, merely seeking extra BR for Harrah's. But I found myself amidst a hot cycle and went with the flow. Get aggressive in that narrow window. I regret not even considering a few $10 per hand shots. But $125 is enough to make me cease and desist. I had time for lunch and a healthy appetite.
Cash Out Dash Out. Avoid regrets. I must sound foolish having declared Caesars a "forbidden zone." The machines sure loosened their death grip on bankroll this month.

FAA,
FYI.. Someone hit the Caesars quarter JOB progressive today. It was at $1019 around 4:30pm today. At 8:30pm it was at $1001.

Thanks. I frequently dabble. Fortunately the sticky button forced me off and enabled my $125 quad. That bank is a horrible money pit absent the RF.

Futile Friday. I won $24 with $25 Caesars quarter JOB FP. I gave it back plus $20. On to dollar JOB. Busted in ninety minutes. I lost $25 table FP, five to seven craps. Six dollar ATM for $200. I soon hit a max quad sevens. Seventh Heaven! 9/5 machine yields the green. Net Day: -$50. 97 TC. I clawed back two thirds of my loss and hit the road. And what a slow road it was. One quad in about 725 hands. Make it count! This is dazed and grateful FAA.

Successful Saturday. I bypassed the quarter JOB money pit for dollars. I won $21 from $25 Caesars FP. I eventually hit two $25 quads on two machines. Off to table FP. A lone bald muscle shirt high roller had a whole table. I joined him after he crapped out. He wouldn't relinquish the dice and rolled a four. Luckily he hit it. I grabbed the chip and bolted. He yelled, "That guy knows what he's doing!" I waved sans looking back. Lunch at TT. I added another $31 net later thanks to a fifty dollar quad. Net Day: +$77. Hold the cartwheels: I netted an embarrassing 27% of potential quad revenue! Lousy luck. My frequent max bets never aligned. Dealt quad Kings in last hour. 58 TC. I also found a nearby quick mart with a bargain $3 ATM if necessity arose to avoid future hikes. Shore grateful to cash in.

Superb Sunday. I wanted Caesars JOB dollars again. Sunday mornings are too crowded. On the machine I wanted, someone just hit a $1,600 DDB jackpot! And was playing the adjacent machine while awaiting paperwork. I hate such people on principle and left the area. I won $30 from $25 quarter FP. Two coin FH a pity, but a quad felt imminent. In a flash, max quad Queens. Cashed out $60. Table FP a $25 win with a seven. $85 approximates my +$100 to justify the trip. TV time. But I missed Harrah's, so I went. I lost three $20s on my old standby and moved. I lost another $100 on the adjacent machine in just over an hour. Third machine was the charm. The hot cycle, at last! I kept winning, then a cold bump, followed by dealt quad Kings. Let it reign and rain! I bolted for the exit ASAP, +$69 from Harrah's. Glad I didn't sit on my wallet. Over 80 TC on them. I lost track with all the moving and the mad dash. Net Day: +$137. No lunch or TV, but a justified sacrifice. A dollars quad two hours earlier, a civilized meal and fraternity is ideal. But, hey. Minus that quad, I would have ruined a Sunday to net $12, a lousy deal. Relieved and ever so grateful, FAA.
