Thread: Big Casino Wins and Jackpots

  1. #3741
    Dude, you worked all your life as a lawyer to end up at 70 staying in a Motel 6?

    Surely the Best Western Plus or the Holiday Inn Express were better. And it appears there are so many higher rated independent places in LC available.

    But hey, if you are looking for a $68 a night hotel, it appears you found the right place. Hopefully you had Motel 6 points to use.

    To each his own I guess, congratulations on the win.

    I myself care little for or about luxury; normally I stay comped at the casino but they're all booked up til the end of this month.

    I chose to stay at Motel 6 primarily because it is close to the casino and I can get to the casino from there by taking back roads (important for a cannabis user such as myself), thus avoiding a possible DWI.

    I was by myself (wife not a gambler), but in the past when my wife accompanied me we'd stay at more upscale places, for her sake: Salishan and Shearwater, e.g.

    Oh, I'm not 70 ... I'm younger than that.
    What, Me Worry?

    While Not a Huge jackpot, I hit this last night. It is much better than the 2 jackpots that I did hit. It's under the hand pay limit, so no W2-G!

    Here's another one, also from last night, also just under Hand pay limit. This one was about 15 minutes before the one above. Since I was up ($200 buy in) I upped it to 100 hands just before I hit the Royal.

    They got'em for life by one simple slogan, "I'm Tom Bodett for Motel 6, and we'll leave the light on for you."
    It is official. Redietz will never be on Dan Druff's podcast. "too much integrity"

    You missed the point...They were both just under the W2-G limit.. You want to see a higher multiple? Here's another from last night..but it came with a W2-G....

    Amazing that a self-professed degenerate gambler would care in the least about whether a jackpot is taxable or not.

    Not as amazing as a self-professed Video Poker Guru Gringo claiming that machines in licensed Nevada casinos are not random.

    It's not that they're not random. It's that they're vulnerable to Rob's telepathy.

    That's right. The cunt unironically cited telepathy as a winning VP strategy.

    Well of course he does. How else could he explain dumping QQQ vs 3 to a royal in TDB ONLY ONE TIME EVER and hitting a royal flush????

    Not really a "big win" but worth pointing out.

    I play a mix of craps and slots, mostly Double Diamond and Double 3x4x5x pay, and I've kept records of my wins / losses for a couple decades.

    For many years the results were typical: I lost; not enough to really hurt, but a loss is never welcomed, albeit expected.

    Anyway, for the past two years something odd has been happening; going over my records I saw a couple abberations.

    Until 2021 hand pays were pretty rare, some years I had none, but last year I had seven of them.

    Over the past two years I've held my own, money-wise: of course there were swings up and down but I am back now at the overall loss level I was at two years ago.

    Ah, variance...

    Sounds like all those jumping beans just aren't going into the right spots during tax filing season

    I'm mildly surprised how you remembered that. The correct facts are it was on a $25 machine at Bellagio on BP (I'd have held the 3 Q's if it were TDB) and a picture was posted in Gaming Today. But I absolutely know how much more credible it would have been to post it on here instead.

    Yes, I've only seen that hand once.

    Not a lot of money, but nice finish. So I played a $5 FanDuel late baseball contest last night. Dave Peralta hits a home run for Arizona late to beat the Dodgers. I go from 5th place, worth $40, to 1st out of 850, worth 1K. I hang on to win.

    The way these prizes are scaled is stupid. Worse than poker tournaments. I won by nine full points, which almost never happens. And I won with one of my players, Cody Bellinger, scoring zero. That also never happens, winning with a guy zeroing. But I'll take it. By the way, I know nada about baseball.

    As a reward, I'll step out and play a $9 golf tournament tomorrow. LOL. I know less about golf.
