Well good, Judy! Especially since you are seriously thinking about lightening up on your play of the 3-Play Bonus Poker, what I learned from reading Lenny Frome (the first Video Poker guru) is that players should have a playing session pot base (depending on the game's overall return and Variance) about 80-100 Times the coin maximum and then from this base the player should set about a 30% Win Goal (maybe even 20-30%) and a Loss Limit of no more than 60%.
I would also, since Bonus Poker returns less than 9/6 Jacks and has a Variance of higher than 9/6 Jacks, about an 85 Times Coin Maximum Playing session base pot.
And then from this base you would then set about a $96 Win Goal and No More than a $192 Loss Limit.
Basically getting to either of these amounts should end your playing session (although you also could exercise the option of once you reach your Win Goal, then taking one half of it out [along with the rest of your playing session pot] and then continuing to play with the other half).
Then, once you do this, if you then continue to win and then end up with a losing hand, continue to take one half of this excess money out and guarantee it with the other money that has already been taken out of the session.
Playing in this very controlled manner has definitely helped me!
