Thread: Friday the 13th Hit and Run

  1. #1
    Thursday night is my late work night but instead of working till 2am on Friday last night we finished about midnight. During the day Jason and I talked about making a quick trip to Morongo and since we finished work early I found myself at Morongo shortly before 2am on Friday the 13th.

    Friday the 13th was lucky. I put only $300 into a 7/5 Bonus Video Poker game at $5/coin and with a few hands got quad 4s for $1,000 and just two hands after that hit quad 10s for $625.

    I now had a stop loss of $1300 which was $1000 above what I started with. But then I got quad 4s again.

    I struggled between $2300 and $2550 and cashed out at $2500 and bolted.

    I also scored 96-Cents cash back.

    That is a very good return for a very brief $575 coin in, for 287 rewards points.

    Just 5000 is needed to reach Titanium for a year.

    I had a lot more coin in than that. How did you come up with your numbers? I was at a $5 machine so each play was $25 coin in.

    Morongo Rewards pays $1 cashback for 300 points played. For VP it is $2 coin in per point. When you scored 96 cents cash back, it was a short session.

    96 cents cashback is 288 points. At $2 coin in per point it will be $576 ($575 since it was $5 a coin). That is 23 rounds, and getting 3 quads that appear 1 in about 420 is good.

    As a heads up, I know it was on a Friday and you had work late Thursday night. On Thursdays, if you earn 100 points ($200 coin in), you can swipe the kiosk for additional free play (at least $15?).

    It was a short session, yes, but I have to admit I didn't look at my final amount of cash back when I left. I glanced at it during the session when I was thinking about recalculating my stop loss. Maybe I'll have a couple dollars more?

    Good tip about playing on Thursday for additional free play. I am guessing you would have to be there before midnight? Is their "day" a conventional day? Or do they start/end their day at different times? Is there a deadline for swiping at the kiosk and is this the kiosk by the cage and the high limit card room? Thanks

    You have to be there anytime before midnight and accrue 100 points before swiping the kiosk. I can tell you its been going on every Friday for the last 5 years.

    Their day is Midnight to Midnight. As soon as the clock strikes 12, a promotion begins or ends right away. There are multiple kiosks on the casino floor, and yes there is one inside the high limit slot room on the back wall.

    For until the end of the year, if you score 500 points, you could also get 1 in 15 chance to win $5, $10, $20 in free slot play with the weekly promotion. Up to 3 times a week. I have not won the two times I've been there.
