Re: The Path
Fair Friday. I won $37 on $25 Caesars JOB FP, including a $19 dealt quad. I returned all, then hit dollar JOB/BP to lose $50. I won $25 table FP on a six point hit. I tried Bally's to change luck, but only tread water. Walk to Resorts and back for exercise. Double or nothing at Caesars on dollar and got a quick FH. Net Day: -$10. 18 Caesars and three Bally's TCs. Progressive $1,070. A kiss sister day.

Solid Sunday. I won $12 on $25 Caesars quarter JOB FP, $20 after dollar switch. I lost it and moved again. My successor quickly hit FHs, as did I. I soon had 78TJ diamonds. I drew 9D for my second SF of the month. Only $37.50 at three coins. I won $25 table FP on a seven craps hit. Resorts walk. $5 foot long hot dog for Phillies games, so I regrettably indulged.
Only twelve entries for CET Alfa Romeo contest. It's quite a spectacle, so I attended anyway. Winner was last called and had to settle for the only briefcase left. Better late than never.
Net Day: +$63. I will continue playing from now on if SF/RF yields <$50. Truly chump change. Progressive $1,022. 3 or 4 TCs.

Sounds good to me. Really a Royal is nothing more than another straight flush. Do I see that in your near future? The stars say yes! By the way those are the stars I just saw when I bumped my head getting out of the new Elantra. Not used to having the seat height all the way up and the sleek new low entry. Let’s hope those stars are on target.

Tell that to a supervisor while demanding $1,000. It's definitely encouraging to get two SFs in a month of rather limited play. I think the casino's VP machines are finally heating up with the weather. I should have taken four pot shots to crank out another $40 profit and leave up an even hundred. The hand is exciting. The denomination is pretty boring.

Unfortunately, boring is safer most times. However, I cannot help but quote from the old wide world of sports. It ran from 1961 to 1998. ABC. Quote.....The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.....That is pretty much what those pot shots are, especially if they are too frequent.

Sure. I would have to physically zip my BR away in my card pouch. Then insert a twenty and do the quick plunge.

Failed Friday. $21 on $25 FP. I got it up. Dollar gave me a decent run before loss killer. $25 table FP win on a six point hit. I hit five quads: four 75 and one 50 coin. Net Day: -$185. Guy on JOB Progressive ($1,020) panicked when someone took his seat: "$400 loss in the machine!" He should have thanked his successor. I lost $200 on dollar. In way over my head there, but no shortage of quarter quads.

Fruitful Friday. Alarmed by duds first $10 FP. Switched to a dollar machine. I finally won $17 on $25 Caesars FP. I lost $16 on quarter JOB. -$400 idiot was back for more masochism. Progressive $1,013. I won $25 table FP on a nine point hit. I won a few more VP bucks. Outlet shopping. I returned for a drink and a nice upswing on dollar. Upset about missing my pal quad. But after last week's five quad fiasco, be bottom line oriented. Net Day: +$75. 9 TCs. Declined free Brooks & Dunn tickets at Ocean. Talk about a nostalgia act. -$200 VP there means leaving on a sour note.

Unfortunately, yes. Way too little, too late. Review my bummer numbers.
