Actual Gaming Wisdom... And a Cabinet

The Green Blowfly posted a really nice comment a few days ago, a thought I've had before many times but didn't elucidate nearly as well. Here it is.

We all have those games when the dice are unkind. You can roll like one blessed by Lady Luck then roll crap during key situations. (edited) The thing is we often tend to selectively just remember those bad dice rolls that cost us big. We tend to forget the crazy dice that beat the odds.

No doubt.  He went on to say...

I think if you find yourself with lots and lots of bad dice karma then probably you are focusing on stuff that has a low percentage of working, like shooting missile launchers at a Monolith or charging the Deceiver. If you go for high odds (albeit with less reward) the dice have better odds. I always look for the most optimum opportunities so as to maximize the odds in my favor. It's all about calling your own shots so to speak.

There you have it - nothing more needs be said.

Since I hate posting without pics, here are three from a gaming cabinet in Lubbock - Challenge Games, I think.  I have more I'll post later this month, from the Hard Boyz Semifinals last year.
