I Dream of Having my Own Slot Machine

For years.

One of the jackpots will be a car.  And I have several of the sounds picked out already.

I haven’t decided if I want my machine to be digital like above, or analog like below.

Because these all-new type of reels are so so beautiful, mixed with lights behind them, they’re the prettiest reels I’ve probably ever seen.

Maybe my machine will have both.

It’s Always a Nice Day at the Casino

That’s part of why I like it here.

Another part is that it’s much like an airport – everyone’s guards go down or off, which makes for excellent people watching.

I also think you can learn a lot about a person, based on how they conduct themselves in a casino.

Like that old saying… “if you want to know someone’s real nature, play golf or drink with them”… I’d add, “go together to a casino”.

Casinos are safe. With that many cameras and security, nothing bad can happen to you.

You can walk around openly with a fist full of money (I do), no one is going to try any electronic-scanning-wizardry in here.

I play slots with my gambling partner, we have a system. The arrow above is us crushing it, because a human had to come pay us out, “Hand Pay“.

If that ever happens to you, how that works is: put your palm out flat for the cameras > bills are counted into it > play one hand / spin in front of the attendant > done

Video poker though, that’s my game.

Best odds in the house guys.

See the purple circle first column?

The rule is: play a 9/6 machine, then an 8/5, don’t bother with anything lower.

I play ‘Jacks or Better’.

I have a theory:
video poker strategy, is the same strategy,
used to win at life.

You’ve gotta use an art of the long view, and stick to the system exactly or it doesn’t work, there will be more negative hands than positive ones, because that is the games nature, and you have to stay unaffected by this.

Can’t figure out how to film that though, since cameras aren’t so encouraged in casinos.

I recently had my biggest win ever, playing video poker.

$1,600 YA buddy.

A Few Photos from the Last Week-ish

Woah I squished a lot into today. Published to 2 sites 2x / each, lunch with a pal, then got to see my girls from out-of-town for a minute, zeroed my inbox, more lists that are exciting for me boring for you, another 4 weeks and I think I’ll have this 3-job-system under control.

If you’re on a Mac or iPhone – you need to update your OS, there’s a bad SSL bug going around. Apple released the update Friday to patch it, just haven’t had time to write that post. Consider using a browser other than Safari for now, and read more at Ars Technica.

I’m concerned how time is going so fast, that it’s already 11 pm, that this weekend brings March. I’m going to start planning my summer next week, otherwise I won’t have much of one; learned that the hard way last year.  PR pals – please send invites; I know I’ve being saying no a lot, I’ll say opposite.

Next car to be blogged – 2014 Honda Fit Sport

Zoning out at the mall. Fake-shopping.

Oh look, I’m disagreeing.

Been on a winning streak at the casino.

If you ever see it, play this Mariachi game, one of the best slots for sure.

Jacknifing.

Not scared of that.

My Viddy video account hit 800, next is to break 4 digits.

Yup yup listening.

Probably.

Got a couple peculiar fortune cookies.

Tada the end TTYT

 

 

I Haven’t Yet Officially Wished You HNY

So HAPPY NEW YEAR to YOU!!

May it be your best one yet!!

I’m kinda jinxy and methodical about how I spend the hours before the a new year. This year I wanted to be around a bunch of money, so I went to a casino.

Played slots and video poker (my favourite game, and only play on at least a 9/6 machine kay). Turned $20 into $70 in 10 minutes of play. Mission accomplished.

And let the record show that Wheel of Fortune is THE best game period. I get so pumped when me or anyone in my row gets to spin.

Then I ripped up that note, which has been folded in my wallet for 7 months, and pitched it into the sky.

So sometimes I’m like, super dramatic, whatever.
