I tried that already, but I decided to try again in case I messed up
something last time. Here's what I ran. As you can see, it still
chooses to do a sequential scan. Am I changing the stats for those
columns correctly?
Thanks,

First, the query:
SELECT MAX(l.Id) as Id, l.ItemId
FROM ItemExperienceLog l
INNER JOIN Items_Primary p ON p.Id = l.ItemId
INNER JOIN Feeds f ON f.Id = p.FeedId
INNER JOIN Visitors v ON v.Id = l.VisitorId
WHERE
v.UserId = 'fbe2537f21d94f519605612c0bf7c2c5'
AND LOWER(f.Slug) = LOWER('Wealth_Building_by_NightingaleConant')
GROUP BY l.ItemId

Bump up the stats:
ALTER TABLE ItemExperienceLog ALTER COLUMN VisitorId SET STATISTICS 500;
ALTER TABLE ItemExperienceLog ALTER COLUMN ItemId SET STATISTICS 500;
ANALYZE ItemExperienceLog;
ALTER TABLE Visitors ALTER COLUMN UserId SET STATISTICS 500;
ALTER TABLE Visitors ALTER COLUMN Id SET STATISTICS 500;
ANALYZE Visitors;
