Thunderstruck - Bonus Video Slot - Straight 60 Session #4
Thunderstruck looked to be my lucky slot. It was full of imagery associated with the Norse god, Thor. You may not know this about me, but Thor is my favorite Norse god. So from my point of view, the Thunderstruck slot machine was just cool to look at.
Besides, a friend of mine had just instant messaged me that Thunderstruck was hitting well recently. Armed with that knowledge, I decided it was time to take some money from Vegas Slot Casino.
Thunderstruck offered a penny game. Having lost thirty-five and some odd amount of dollars today, I decided that was a mighty fine option. The bonus video slot offered a 5 reel, 9 line game where 5 coins could be bet every pull. That comes to a $0.45 bet for every turn of the Thunderstruck wheel.
Determined to win back some money, I entered into a marathon session of slots. Before we continue, I might mention that this session took 55 spins. So you might get you a cold beer to sip on and/or put the kids to bed before you take the time to read about this marathon.
I started with a 5 losses and thought I was going to walk away rather quick. But I cashed in on a $3.80 victory 0n the next two spins. I lost another, but won the next two for a total of $0.80. I thought to myself, "You've won four out of five, Chuck. John Patrick is a slots genius!"
At this point, this is usually where I press my luck and put down a major wager. But I kept my cool and continued with the Straight 60 strategy.
Five losses followed. The Straight 60 was obviously saving me money. Then I won 40 cents, lost two more spins, and gathered a dollar on the next two. My luck started to turn with 7 straight naked pulls, but I was saved from the Naked Pull limit with a $0.25 win. 4 lossed were followed by two minor wins, which were in turn followed up by another 5 naked pulls.
To make a long story short, I mixed in 3 more wins with 14 losses thrown in. I collected $2.50, but slowly and surely lost down to my 60% loss limit. In other words, I lost my ass on a fourth straight session playing John Patrick's Straight 60 system.
So I tried four sessions of Straight 60 on 4 different slot machines. All I have to show for my work on the slot machine was a $49.70 loss to my account. Damn you, John Patrick. The Straight 60 slot machine system is a miserable failure.
On the other hand, I tell myself that the Straight 60 is the most basic of the 25 systems. John Patrick himself admits as much. In fact, the Straight 60 is really only the foundation of the other 24 winning systems Patrick touts. You have to learn the fundamentals before you can master a skill.
I have achieved the first level of slots wisdom. So never mind that I damned you earlier, John Patrick. I now thank you. I am wiser for having lost nearly 50 bucks today.
