Suitedjustice's Ongoing Mid-life Crisis
I woke up in the middle of choking to death again; though to be accurate, it was towards the end of the process--woke up
Timothy Olyphant kills it balancing between keeping it together and losing his mind.
Neighbour kid is excellent too.
"I lost my pen" is still one of the funniest lines in a comedy that I've ever heard. Tears coming down my face.
Rough night tonight. I made a bad fold vs a bad reg for heaps. Next time I'll know that he plays good but not nutted hands far too aggressively on the river, then I might get some of that money back from him. Poker: 4.5 hours, -$550.
As I walked the floor on my final slot sweep of the night, a good-looking woman in her forties stopped me and asked me for a small amount of money, and all I gave her was an exasperated look, similar to my avatar's, and she swore at me in Spanish as I walked away.
This is to say that on losing nights I'm sometimes far away from the path to Enlightenment. Slots: 4 hours, +$38
You get either of the new cash falls yet? I don’t think any mgm joint has it yet but the wizard version is best new game of the year ainec.

No. I've seen that online and it looks fun. We got in some old-style Cash Falls on which the buttons to switch denominations are broken half the time, so if you want to properly check them, you have to cash out then reinsert the ticket a half dozen times.
lol, yeah I know that game, I just wished they’d reset them more, those are the best for blank board spins.
Tonight a drunk guy swung by to give me $10 at random, asking nothing in return. Since I'd recently refused a woman asking for a small amount of money just yesterday, you'd think that I'd choose the morally and ethically consistent thing and refuse to take the drunk's money. You'd be wrong. I took the money and gave him a fist bump and thanked him and wished him luck. He seemed happy with that.
Everyone likes to be the protagonist in their own story; sometimes though I accept my occasional antagonist's leanings and go with them. When I do, you'll be able to read about that here.

I found a Dragon Lanterns play for 50c a spin and hit a feature that ended up paying more than 600x the bet. That is a very good hit.
I have one more day to try to improve my poker winrate for the week.
This one's been going around the Internet.

I'd like to thank the influencer who I stole this joke from, but that would be giving away a little too much info. Sorry.
The consensus Most Fun Player in Springfield saved my poker week.
Bless him.

yessssss
YouTube is pissing me off, lately. Months ago I started to watch a video featuring Richard Feynman talking about travel in the solar system; that is, until I realized that it was deepfake AI slop. I stopped watching, gave the video a thumbs down, and told YouTube to never recommend the channel to me again.
Now the AI slop Feynman keeps showing up in my recommends coming from different channels, and zapping the channel does nothing because these bastards just keep making new ones, and the algorithm keeps picking them out for me.
Suited, don’t listen to that influencer! A lot of the numbers he gives are bad and he’s a gambling degenerate that got banned from magic tourneys for threatening to shoot people.
I think all of that is correct in its essentials. The machines are set to take a certain percentage of the coin-in over the long run regardless of who plays them. Clusters of big jackpot payouts or long dry spells will throw the numbers off, but only in the short to medium run.
This is true but slot APers are going to take the money out of the ecosystem, while the poppies will likely give it back to the casino if they’re hitting whatever the APers are chasing only when the machines in a positive state. It means the losing players lose faster and either go broke or get discouraged.
I would think if I was a slot supervisor I wouldn’t want APs on my slot floor. Also that’s assuming the APs aren’t the type stalking my losing players, loitering around machines, making patrons uneasy, being rude to employees.

There are definitely some downsides to APs. Though the ones I've seen in Springfield have been unobtrusive and well-behaved thus far.
I made a good start to the workweek: +$245 at poker over 4 hours and +$275 at the slots over 4 hours. At one point I was dealt 3 aces (no kicker) at a 50c, 5-play Triple Double Bonus game with a bunch of multipliers on screen. The vp heads out there will know how good of a spot that is, but I didn't boat or quad up. It was still a nice payout, but ahhh what could have been...On
What happens if you hit 4AWAK on a multiplier here? Other than paying taxes.
At Triple Double Bonus, 4 aces with a 2 3 or 4 kicker is 4000 credits. the biggest multiplier on the board at the time was 4x, so if I hit it on the 4x hand it would have paid 16000 credits, or $8000 at 50c. I believe there were two 4x and two 2x multipliers? Or maybe one 4x and three 2x. I can't remember.

I mean what happens with you? Are you doing anything different? Are you taking a shot at $2/$5, playing bigger slot opportunities you’re currently under rolled for?

I should have at least 20 buy-ins to keep from going broke at the cash games. That would be $20k for the $2/$5 game. I don't have that, and another $8k from a slot win wouldn't quite get me there.
Yes, it would take a big run of bad luck to lose 20 buy-ins, but it's possible, especially in my case where I'm just not that good at the game, and it's happened to better players than I. In any case, the $2/$5 game in Springfield is heavily reg-infested. I would have to move somewhere else to find a better game if I wanted to play at that level.
However, Springfield does have a new $1/$3 game. I don't quite have 20 buy-ins for that either, but I'm not too far away. It's more reg-infested than the $1/$2, but there are spots where I could find value late at night or on the weekends. I will move up to that once I have the appropriate bankroll.
Yeah I think we discussed that before when I was around IIRC. The 2/5 in Springfield is like, there's that whole poker room that plays 1/2 and plays relatively big and is relatively soft and there's like 1 or 2 tables of 2/5 that features the precious *select* players. You don't wanna be in dat spot normally. If suited's schedule and BR and whatnot allows he could test the 2/5 in Foxwoods, Mohegan. Those play pretty small and are pretty soft as far as I've seen.

I'm sticking around Springfield as long as my parents are around. Afterwards, who knows? My friends Will and Octavia own a house 10 minutes away from Mohegan and rent out their top floor for reasonable rates; but, being good landlords, they usually have a tenant. I would go there if the timing was right.
There's a machine that—in order to check it properly—I need to press a single button upwards of 891 times. I have to press other buttons as well, but none of them nearly as much as that one.
A few of the states on the machine can be be previously filled in partial, cutting down slightly on presses, but I still average well over 800 presses on that button per check. I worry about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. I tried switching hands, but then I ended up making a costly misclick.
