Like I said before, lately I don't get anything better than a pair of 7's. I raise and end up losing even more. Now I just give the game a couple tries a day to see if it's back to paying. Then it's off to Roulette to try to get my losses back.

sometimes...I get on a tear, and just bet 400 and raise...raise...w/o even looking at the hand.

this has actually had surprising results.

First hand I was dealt 3 fives to start with, and after that nothing more than a high pair. I'm going to come back to it in a bit, it's ice cold right now.
