Frank,
But I'm curious as to your response regarding "streaks" that appear due to randomness....and the fact that you *could* happenstance upon a happier streak on another machine, possibly. This is something I see as a factual possibility - though only that and as I said before, not anything that you could count on at all, or predict, or make happen.
Actually I do see the logic in what you are saying and agree with you. It's probably not that great a jump from simply changing machines to tapping the machine three times every time before you hit the draw button in the hopes that it will make things better. Or doing those weird things that I see people do where they are hitting all the buttons over and over again (holding and unholding cards) before they hit the draw button....Much like the Siaful making their trek.....trying to do "something" to make things better.
Regarding inaccurate play - I spent my time in the beginning studying vp trainers, bought the software and learned the accurate ways to play some of the games but as it turned out I made the choice to be a recreational player, strictly. But at least I do know something, lol, which probably helps along the way.
And as such (recreational) I find it unpleasant to stare at hand after hand as happens sometimes, when a machine gives you unplayable combinations of cards over and over and over again.....even though I know it's the nature of the game.
I enjoy reading these discussions with someone like Frank who can be so, well, professional about it, so objective, so realistic (I'm not being sarcastic). It does remind me when I'm out there playing to refrain from being too much otherwise, and to keep a sense of humor about the whole thing too, and to remember why I'm there.
