No, and I have never had an idea what my "comp rate" was or is anywhere.
But while we're talking about what a winner I am, remember when I said I was going to start playing again around Jan. 19th or 20th for the first time since my huge hit? That happened to start on Sunday, and I'm playing an hour or two each day at different casinos until about the 29th. Here's my results so far. Each day except today, I played up to four simple 3-level 25c/50c/$1 ARTT sessions with a win goal of $100 because I know it doesn't make sense to go after the high limit machines constantly after beating the crap out of them. That's what controlled addicts would do. Today I decided to play some games that I really don't play often except when playing out of curiosity, so I "explored" and without a strategy to guide me. Games like UltimateX, spin poker, deuces wild, jokers wild, and 50-play. I didn't do well on all but one of these, but as you can see, it was another stroke of luck that made my day. I was not impressed with any of these games, and I don't know how anyone enjoys any of them, even deuces wild.
Sunday, +$555
Monday, -$920
Tuesday, +$145
Wednesday, +$120
Thursday, +$5250
I can already hear the cries of "gee Rob, NOBODY gets this lucky, NOBODY!! How can you win so much so often when the rest of us lose all the time!?"
Answer: Because few ever listen and put into practice the valuable lessons I teach. Today I really did have a good lucky unusual hit because I had no strategy and I STILL grabbed a royal. Plus did you notice is was one of those AWFUL -EV games again? And do you think I'm going to go out and make stupid games like Ultimate X or DW a habit? Of course not--that's dumbing down a strong player. I was lucky not to leave without any of the $1500 I walked in with.
