Even with the RNG(L) Royals Not Good Lately, you should be able to
get out of it IF YOU REALLY WANT TO by playing those 50-Play or 100-
Play machines. 5-Play and 10-Play machines let me hit the Royals
faster too, if I really want to hit a Royal. Try it on WinPoker and
you'll see! :>>

"Royals" are funny critters.
My wife has ALWAYS had more of them in any given time period than I
have had, and yet, she runs out of money faster than I do.
I have also had the experience of winning at quarters and losing at
dollars. That is another way to be frustrated with results, even if
the numbers come up correctly.
We all hope that your drought will end, and tht you will have to
rent
an extra garage to store your winnings. Good luck.
