Harry,
Have you moved to the midwest? I've seen a couple of posts from you on this newsgroup. Welcome aboard!
Pick 'em can be downright brutal in the short term. The quad cycle is 2360 hands and the full house cycle is 424. If you play for an hour with no quads or full houses ( or sf or rf) you are down to about 89% return. The flush cycle is 313 and the straight cycle is 197. Without those hands you are down to about 78%. There are times you will play an hour and lose 25% of coin in. Believe me, I know. At dollars, that's approaching $1K loss in a hour.
