The first several Vegas trips we took after I leaned vp strategy, I hit at least one royal and I thought it was awfully easy. Then a few years later I went on a losing streak and thought I'd never hit one again.
It is virtually impossible to convey to some non-gambler, especially a young one, how bad things can get. I think it is natural for someone to start off winning and think, "Oh, this is easy". And it don't matter how much you talk to them and warn them. It seems to just be human nature. One would really have to be rational and perceptive to go into it with no experience and accept your warning completely. They've got to go through it themselves.
