Honey To The Bee - Bonus Slots - Step Session #4

"Chuck's sweating fingers paused as their tips touched the keyboard of his Compaq Presario.

It had been another all-night session, and Chuck still hadn't quite recovered from the beating he just took. He rubbed the fingers from his left hand through his thinning hair, letting out a sigh as he began focusing his thoughts.

As he started to type, Chuck saw his own reflection in the monitor. His nervous tick returned. His body almost gave a shudder. Chuck reached for his glass of cognac, gulping the drink like a latino child after downing his first habanera pepper.

The ashes on his cigarette were long and gnarled, pointing like an old man's finger at the computer screen, as if urging Chuck to finish what he had started..." --The Many Loves of Chuck Flick

That's how the novel version of this blog would read.

It would read like an old pulp detective novel, you see, because your faithful reporter is a gritty burnout of a man. I have to be, to take the ass-kickings that I keep taking during these slots sessions.

Yes, I have another loss to report.

For my latest session at the Breakaway Casino, I chose the Honey To The Bee slot machine.

There's not a whole lot of mystery to this machine. It's got a bee hive. It has a comical looking bee. It has a rather average looking beetle.

Otherwise, it has card ranks. So there's not a whole lot of excitement about this game. (sigh) I don't even have the energy to make the customary "buzz" joke.

There were 27 pulls in this session. 9 of them won me money. One was for $12 and the other was for $14.50.

It didn't matter. Just about every other spin was a loss, or was so small that it might as well have been.

You know, these slots systems of John Patrick's don't seem to be working very well. I don't care to count the money I've lost playing them.

For those who are just joining, Mr. Patrick is the author of the Step Method. It's one of twenty-five unique systems John once devised to win at slots. These were put forth in John Patrick's Slot Systems, which has been my guidebook during the length of this blog.

That is, my guidebook to loss and tragedy.

Either the systems are flawed, or my execution of the systems are flawed.

No matter how much "money management" I apply to this slots problem, at the end of the day, I still put my money in the machine and leave the results to chance. And most of the time, it seems like the percentages are against me.

That's at least what it seems like, despite John's helpful wisdom.

I get the idea that John Patrick's been down this path before.

I don't think there's such a thing as a John Patrick novel, but I'm assuming it would be very similar to mine. That bastard.

Starting Money: $589.13 Ending Money: $534.63
