Yes, thanks. Sometimes no matter how careful we are and do not bet overly wild, if nothing hits, we are going to lose. Unfortunately, that is the nature of VP. I posted this, to make sure newer players do not think there is any get rich quick scheme with VP. Funny though. Over the years, I have noticed sessions like this almost immediately after a really big Jackpot. I think I will take a break and catch up on some stuff around the house and yard. I will take a few new photos in the yard or maybe down at the beach and post in my other thread.

It looks like you changed your behavior. Normally afaik you don't exceed $1000 for a session loss. This time you went all the way out to $1800.

But I would have done the same thing if they waved a free play bonus in front of me. Sometimes good decisions aren't rewarded.

VP giveth and VP taketh. I find after a good day or two it has a way to bring you back down. Keep your head up Olds and continue your journey.

Sorry to hear. This is the exact type of trip I’ve been striving to avoid. $180 hourly loss and absolutely reeling. This I’m not feeling!

Yep. I refuse to sit home in front of the tube and be a couch potato. Good to keep moving. As Arnold would say…..I’ll be back. Actually have a reservation for Sunday and free play in my account for Sunday and Monday. They know how to choose the proper bait before they cast
their line into the water. 🤨

Absolutely. You’re good for almost a grand a week over a calendar year!

Last year 500 a week, but the year is young yet. The Clone is a life savior as long as the discipline doesn’t break down as it often does.

Cooking tonight on my 1,800 free Raclette grill. First pic is 5 minutes on grill. Other one is when served. The Mrs likes hers rare or medium rare. Marinated 24 hours overnight. Was awesome. Plenty for tomorrow. Pics are reversed

Tough balancing act. Cut the carbs, but red meat sparingly too, lots of veggies and some fruit a must. Watch the desserts, the sugar, the sodium. Unfortunately, Casino food is loaded with sodium. Solo overnight trip planned for Sunday evening. After the last session disaster, better stick to 9/6 JOB with the Clone and hope for the best.
