Oops, I made a mistake!

[SLaPiNFuNK]

I haven't been playing VP lately as I've decided to grind Poker...

Had an off night so decided to stop at Pala on the way home...

My father made this mistake once, lets see who can spot it?




Just a split second after I pressed the button to confirm the held cards I yelled "FUCK I MADE A MISTAKE"... oh well...


Then I went over to the Ultimate X DDB...

Wow nice hit bro

Ya blocked the chance for a kicka (face card) by holding all five cards.

P.S. Nice hit on UX.

Yes exactly. I realized as soon as I held all. So mad at myself. My father did this the first time he played it too. Doh!

[jdog]

Kicker and with 4X, nice!

[DGenBen]

Yup, I think we’ve all made that mistake.

Now I’m in the habit of just holding the 4OAK and drawing for the kicker even when I’m on a game where it’s not in play.

Nice hit on the 4 aces!

These sorts of mistakes come up once in a while in UX vulturing since you are always switching UX screens on the same machine. For example holding a high card in UX bonus deuces wild or UX deuces wild since you forgot that you are not in a non-wild card theme for a second (i.e. a brain fart) as you play 5 different themes in the space of a few spins (and a few seconds) if there are a lot of plays on that machine.

Feel good about your mistake.

If you did anything even slightly differently, you wouldn't have hit the $16k jackpot later.

exactly my thoughts.

I was still upset about it though!

Earlier that night while playing the pokers. I thought I was outkicked... I usually always turn my hand up when I muck "just in case" but one of the cards hit a chip or something and didn't fully flip over so only one card showed. Was a 4 flush board and I had a flush, other guy didn't... Thankfully only a 40bb pot, but I was upset about it... dude wanted to give me the money and I declined... However I did double up through him a few hands later with a full 120bb buy-in so it more than made up for it... heh...

Weird spot. I've never taken the money in these situations. It keeps it simpler for me .. but then someone else fucks up and they expect the money from me.

Kind of a dumb statement.
Maybe if he did something slightly different, he would have flopped a full house.
And the next hand he would have been dealt a Royal Flush times 12.
But because he did everything the way he did he only got 16k.
Or maybe the Sharks would actually win a hockey game.

Usually I'm more on top of things... It was one of those night were everyone is drawing out on your or you are outkicked and I was tired of getting wrecked. My worst session in 12 sessions. Well, 12 winning sessions followed by losing 4 buy-ins which is really nothing in comparison.

I recently built a simple and minimalist tool for date calculations that focuses on efficiency and ease of use. Whether you need to calculate the difference between two dates, add or subtract days, or determine future deadlines, this tool streamlines nasdaq fintechzoom the process without unnecessary features or clutter. It’s designed to be fast, intuitive, and accessible, perfect for users looking for straightforward date management.

So funny how all the new users are spammers.

One little card, I would hate myself even if I could convince myself an actual little card would appear had I played perfectly. I would never make this mistake, but everyone has their weaknesses.

12 little cards. Any of four suits of Jacks,Kings, or Aces that are in the 47 remaining cards of the deck available on the draw. If the 5 of hearts had not been held, there would have been a 25.5% chance of picking up a kicker (12/47) and receiving 3.2 times the payout of the five card hold (25.5% chance of 800 five dollar bills paid out versus the 250 five dollar bills that actually were paid out).

Everyone enjoys seeing these big wins, but congratulating someone for pushing a few buttons and seeing how a computer reacts? Get real.

I see these jackpots posted by Jason and it reminds me of the many big wins his dad used to post. Remember that cringeworthy video of Alan SINGING the jackpot jingle after hitting a high-limit royal at Caesar's?

I'm a little miffed at why these kinds of players post these things, when it's obvious knowledge that those big handpays last about as long as a bag of ice in your cooler. Most of these players simply can't resist the false confidence of "how easy it was hitting that big winner as they rush into playing their piles of cash on even higher denominations. It is classic gaming-addict behavior.

You've all seen this clown Cerveza something pop in and out of here with pictures of big wins, claiming "I haven't played a hand anywhere since my last big show-off win" which he began claiming after I shamed him for always blowing his winnings without admitting it. So WTF do you think players like Jason do after posting these things?

Alan was quite the character to me. He was your typical S.California very busy social butterfly, who simultaneously began every evening with sweaty palms while frantically thinking about being back at the machines in Vegas to give it another go. Why do you think he took so many last minute night time jaunts over I-15 in the middle of the night?

$2 royals...$5 royals...$25 royals...he seemed to have Caesar's number--or at least that's the way it APPEARED to be. But I knew better because I know how addicted vp players react to hitting big jackpots--just as casinos also know. HIGHER LIMITS HERE WE COME!

If you've ever read my articles, my books, my website, or saw or listened to me on TV or radio etc., you'd know I've always railed against players running g to higher limit machines after hitting it big. Yes you MAY do it again and even bigger this time, but you overwhelmingly will not. But this wisdom does not stop problem gamblers.

I've always strongly advocated for vp players to go DOWN in denomination after hitting large winners. In fact, after I hit that large winner on $25UX at Circa a few years ago, I vowed to never again play higher than dollars--and I've stuck to that to this day. I refuse to someday go to my grave as a loser.

So while these large vp wins may mesmerize some of you who can never even begin to dream about playing at the levels some of these guys play at, think of how lucky you are not to have to go through what the bad-ending roller coaster rides these players go through. And if you're a gambling realist, this is the Undeniable Truth.

If you have read Rob's articles, books, websites or saw him anywhere and listened to him....then may God help you! I hope you have disposable money to throw away at the casinos.

I didn't say anything when Slapinfunk started this thread because I didn't want to be dismissive of him sharing his experiences. I am all for that. But when Dan Druff (of all people) came along telling him not to feel bad about his mistake because it enabled him to win a bigger jackpot a short time later, and slapinfunk concurred, the thread took a hard right turn into voodoo-ism.

And now Singer comes along doubling down on this complete voodoo nonsense that of progression play because you are "due", (or not due after a win).

Just complete nonsense. Complete gambling voodoo. One hand or spin has absolutely nothing to do with the next. PERIOD!! The VERY voodoo nonsense I have spent years challenging with people like Singer and Mdawg (Mdawgs betting into hot streaks and Singer telling us the machines signal when they are "due". )

If this forum had a voodoo section, this thread and these ideas by Druff and now Singer would be regulated to the voodoo section. But here, just about everything is the voodoo section.
