I'm going to take back every negative comment I've ever made regarding
Mohegan Sun.
I arrived on the 19th. Nice room at the $39 special S-F rate. I played my
first session on $1 3/5 play and couldn't hit a thing. The 3/5 play JOB was
increased a while ago from 8/5 to 8/6.
I took a break to grab diner and hoping to change my luck.
I returned to the $1 3/5 play and my luck was the same. I was down to my last
couple of hundred for the session and decided to give the $5 9/6 JOB a try.
On my third hand I hit 4OAK. I continued to play this machine for the next 6
hours never putting in more then the original $100.
At about 5:00 AM I get dealt a 10.J,Q and A of spades. I pull the K for my
first $5 royal ever. I just sit there watching the machine flash 20K winner
saying holy shit. About 10 hands later I pull a straight flush, and take my cash
(I got 10K cash and 10K check) and went to bed.
I also received an offer for a 50K slot tourney the weekend of April 16. I'll
be in Gulfport at the Grand and can't take advantage of it.
All in all, MS is pretty good with 1.1% comps, slot tourney's, upgrades to
suites and free gas, shopping and an occasional Royal.
