Back to the "topic" (although I must admit I am not exactly sure what the origin topic was), there is a "pattern" that will develop as the number of rolls gets larger and larger.

This entire thread is a contest with prizes for the best analogy to describe to the layman, why looking for patterns in Video Poker machines is a waste of time and can lead you astray.

My example post was "Highway to Hell":

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vpFREE/message/110974

All entries should begin with:

"Contest Entry"

Prizes were stated in:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vpFREE/message/111065

So far I have exactly zero official entries, as everyone seems to have forgotten the origin of the thread. I also stated that all other chatter should be put into a different thread. It's OK, I'm a cat lover and used to being ignored. So far, the only command my cat follows without question is, "do as you please". I still love him.

The contest will end Jan 21st.

If I search through the thread and find no official entires, I'll try to award the prizes to the best overall post. It would make my job easier if people stuck to the rules of the contest, but it seems to have gotten a bit "random". Guess that was to be expected.
