Thanks for the flashback to 2003, nita :) It stands as my most perverse play to date.
At the point I had introduced you to the "best" standing play in AC (the Trump Plaza $1 10/7), I had dumped $17k into it over the prior year (say $21k gross loss, offset by $4k in cb, etc.). Against my better judgement, I was beginning to have doubts about the fairness of that machine. Your triple hit restored my sensibilities and served as a bedrock example of just how volatile vp play can be.
That $18k represented the lion's share of my bankroll allocated to play at the time. Yet, I realized wins out of the 4 other AC casinos I was actively playing that year, for a net winning year overall.

I hope that Harry Porter doesn't mind me sharing this story. Years ago, when I was a newbie VP player, he had clued me in to the lone 10/7 DB at Trump Plaza. While he had put in many hours, and had some good runs, he had yet to hit the RF. I believe that he had been through multiple royal cycles, so this was becoming a bit of a quest.
