rayj,

You aren't alone and the cold spells can be killers for morale.

I've been on this site 2.1 years and never gotten an RF. I pissed and moaned because several others seem to get them at will. In this contest, I'm averaging between 2500-4K points and 500-2K RR's. I've managed to land two RF's in this contest! Not on the leaderboard but glad to say my RF drought has ended and in a contest no less!

Not necessarily sour grapes. But I don't think I would play this game in a casino after playing here in the contest.
The cold spells make the game very boring.

I've been lucky - I had one RF, and $582 flush dealt to me (not in the same game).  My top score has been around 9700.  Not being a Gold member, it is interesting to be a "fly on the wall".  You guys have such great convos that we're not allowed to participate in.  Makes you wanna be gold (at least for the free week).  I'm getting over a nasty cold and this has been a great (but boring) diversion.

My husband and I both play (on seperate computers)  His random bonus' show as $500+.  And, he gets many many high bonus' a game. On my pc I've never seen a bonus over $200.  Why would that be?   Our scores have only been around $3000-$5000 on a good day.  We "practiced" before the game started and did quite well.  But the actual contest, we've gotten NOTHING.  Just interesting.

I think if you look at your 5000 score vs the leaders, you will see that the only difference is a dealt Royal Flush. So WM, why not eliminate the possiblity of a dealt RF in the next contest?

If only you could hear the conversation Tangueray has with the contest games!
