It took a mere two months to return that $10,000 to its rightful owner, House Always Wins Corp. My plan to create a healthy BR fell through with last night’s $1.4B PowerBall draw.

My last trip up for awhile playing overnight was fun, but not profitable. One nice hit on the machine that still hasn’t beat me. Ended up losing though on regular Deuces Wild both single line and multi. Nickels and quarters.

Hopefully you will come through the surgery well and be back with a better outcome following your recovery.

Fun but unprofitable beats my last trip, a pure and simple robbery! My dream is back on. I seek to extract my small share of the presumptive $1.6B jackpot. Failing that, I’ll settle for $7 and 70% break even.

Good luck with the apparently safe and effective surgeries. It sounds as unsettling as LASIK, but it is mandatory in nature.

Thanks. Took a spin up last night with the Mrs at the wheel for now. Nice dinner and room. She clipped them on her usual play for 97 bucks and I dropped 300 on single line play Deuces. The Bizarro thing is still here. ( the machine that hasn’t beat me. ). I picked up 68 bucks on It when we first got there and 47 on our way out.
I play the Clone on it, but one of these times it will nail me for short coining. Its minimum bet is a buck. I play the bottom line with a 20 on triple play Bonus Deuces Wild. If it takes my 20, I play another 20 on the bottom line and 20 more on the second of three lines at the same time. Any time I have recovered part of the 20 I lost, I drop back to the bottom line for a buck a hand. I then go back to betting 2 bucks if the remainder of my first 20 vanishes again. I must have played it in at least 20 sessions now, but have given the winnings and more back on other quarter games.

I always get nailed for short coining. When I full coin, it’s a wildfire. Classic house always wins. Obviously, you must bypass quarter games. Nice problem to have.

I only play this machine lately at the dollar level. It is that big tall one pictured above. No choice but to short coin as to play max with the ultimate x feature, it costs 30 bucks a deal. 80 percent of my normal play though is on quarters. I am just in one big batter’s slump on those lately. Also a weak bankroll does’t help. Scared money usually equals no money. If I was smart, I would just play the machine that hasn’t beat me and nothing else until it does. If I lose the 60 bucks, just walk away, go back hours later and try again or just quit and hang out or go home. How many of us are really smart though when it comes to VP? I can’t say that I am a member of that club.
