Just thot I'd throw in some of my own comments/observations after
going to Indiana on a whim last weekend. Got a last minute room at
Harrah's (comped of course) on Saturday nite. Arrived at about 9pm.
We decided to play the 25c progressives for a bit before getting a
good night's sleep. I played the BDW as the prog was up to $1800+.
Put a $20 in and played on that for a good hour or so before it
started eating benji's. My gambling cohort hit a RF on DDB for $1173
during the 2nd hour. We quit for the nite and went back to the room.
I was really hungry, so close to 1am I ordered room service; an
omelet that came with potatoes. They were both absolutely delicious!
Also ordered bread pudding (I have a sweet tooth) - took 1 bite and
left the rest as it was mediocre at best.
Checked out Sun am and went to Majestic. I had been there 2x many
years ago and recalled it being dumpy. I was pleasantly surprised at
how nice it was now. We checked out the prog at the bar - decided
not to play them because 1) it was close to reset 2) it was freezing
over there and I'm usually cold anyway. Settled into the 50c
machines. That was uuuugly. We played for about 3 hours with 1 4oak
between us. Decided to walk over to Trump. I was down to my last
$20 (don't you hate when that happens?), so figured it would be a
brief visit. We loved it there! The music was great (a factor
overlooked/unimportant to many) and loud enough to enjoy over
machine noise. The staff was very friendly to us as well. Drink
service was much better than at Majestic too. We stayed until almost
2am. Really didn't want to leave, but had a two hour drive home. I
hit loads of 4oak's including A's 5x. I still lost overall for the
trip, but those hits made a decent dent in the weekend losses.
Traffic was great and I got home in 90 minutes. We'll see what kind
of offers our play generates...
