Very quick session of 10/6 DDB single line quarters tonight. Hit 23222 in the first minute, played down to +$150 and called it a day. I must of made some burnt offerings or something that the vp gods felt was pleasing. On to the next!Cheers

You only blew $50 of the quick $200 hit. Not a bad way to spend an hour on DDB!

All things must pass...
I had a good run lately I must admit, but ran out of my nine lives and took a good loss. No lucky saving Royal this time. VP gods have had enough and wanted some back. -$1000. Took 500 fairly quickly on .50c nsud single line. Never even got a 5 of a kind. Decided to take the other 500 and do a true pot shot to break even or go home with $2 bonus poker single line. Nothing there either. So it's almost back to the drawing board this month as I give back about 70% of my winnings this month in an approximately bad 70 minute session But...all is not lost. Still up $450 for the month, and it's still early...only October 6th.
On to the next...
Cheers

Might as well. The heating season is upon us here in the NE. Will be burning them up anyway but there's no chance the gas/oil company will ever give any back like VP. I got plenty of old furniture and blankets are cheap @ the Goodwill if I go bust.

What a drubbing! I'm getting the hell off my dollar VP kick. Boycotting the formerly charmed Caesars is even more crucial. I don't know what to say. But I must face facts. It's now a pure money pit!

Back on the horse tonight playing 10/6 DDB single line quarter. I was going to play fpdw but the prog was at $1,070 which made 10/6 DDB a 100.2% ER game.
But it doesn't matter, its a good game and I like to play it and sometimes that's important too.
Long story short,
Played 2 hrs, cashed out +$200 mostly thanks to quad 4's with kicker and a few other quads. But I decided to play a quarter progressive 7/5 BP game with the royal at $1300 and aces at $130. But never hit really anything and gave back a hundred.
So all in all, +$100 and on to the next.

Progressively eroding bankroll. I know all too well. Identify gaming day peak and flee. Hint: when things are too good to be true.

I'm not necessarily a "hit and run" player. Although some sessions I am. I guess what I'm saying is...To me, each spin is independent of the last and it really doesn't matter when one leaves except if they hit a goal, tired, or a promo ends, or just time to go.Having said that....yes, it's frustrating to be way up and keep playing and dump it back into the monster machine. On the other hand, I've had times when my big hits came late or they kept coming. So...I guess the point to the whole thing is, to each their own.Cheers
