Several months ago I started to go on this huge losing streak and I
can not get off of it. I have trouble getting a wild royal. Put money
in the machine and it gets sucked up in a few minutes. My bankroll is
about gone.
Any advice?
Thanks so much.

I'm sorry this is happening to you. I had a similar terrible losing streak
and basically I was backing off playing until I went to a VPFree lunch and
hit two royals the same afternoon on the same machine. Other than perseverence
I don't have an answer. If your bankroll is really almost melted away,
perhaps it's time to take a break from playing (perhaps you aren't playing well
as a consequence of all that losing) and wait a while before you begin again.
I have a limited bankroll for gambling and when it starts getting eroded I
do take time off, go to lower stakes, wait a while and hope for better things
to happen when I do start playing frequently again.
