Glad to hear about your good fortune, Coach. That Hedy sure is a skillful player. Maybe she could "coach" other members of our group.

Subject: [acvpp] Hedy Has A Day
Hi Gang:
I've seen Hedy do some amazing things at the video poker machines (e.g.
hit a $4,000 royal on one machine and a $2,000 royal on the adjacent machine
two hands later while waiting for her hand pay) and she added another
chapter to the legend this past Friday at Harrah's AC.
We came into town Thursday for a two-night stay and, after a mostly
break-even day on Day One, we hit the machines Friday morning after breakfast. At
about 10:30, I looked over, saw her thrust her fist into the air and there
it was on her screen ... a $4,000 royal! While playing $1 9/6 DDB, she had
held the A-J-Q of hearts and the 10-K filled in. This was on the same
machine where she hit another 4G royal in hearts on our anniversary on 5/23.
We kept playing for awhile and she kept racking up the $250 quads ...
5's, 9's, 6's twice, queens, dealt fives, eights twice. Then she hit 4's (no
kicker) for $400, but the best was yet to come. A few minutes later I saw
the fist go up again and heard her cry out, "Aces dealt ... with a kicker!!"
I looked and saw the two red aces on the left, the two black aces on the
right and a beautiful four in between them. Another $2,000 score!
We took a break soon after to have some lunch in the Seven Stars Lounge
and went back to the same machines at about 2:30. A friend came by about an
hour later to chat and while we were talking Hedy was dealt the A-K-Q-J of
diamonds and the five of diamonds. She called me over and asked, "Can I do it
again?" I said,"Why not!"
Our friend said to her, "This is simple. All you have to do is double the
five of diamonds."
She tossed the five, hit the button and, lo and behold, up came the 10 of
diamonds! Another 2G tax ticket.
Unbelievable!
Later, she hit aces again (no kicker) for $400 playing halves. That
evening we had to leave to go over to the Borgata to pick up our tickets to see
Styx and REO Speedwagon. We had received an email alert that we had two free
tix so we decided to go over to see the show.
When I went to the box office, I was shocked to learn that the tickets
were for STANDING ROOM! We weren't about to stand for hours to watch the show
(it started at 8 but we were told that Styx wouldn't come on until 10:30)
so we decided to play a little and leave. Hedy sat down to play triple play
9/6 double bonus on the Super Times Pay machine at the far left of the bank
and on her second hand she was DEALT aces! Another $600 hit.
It put an exclamation point on a storybook day for her.
We'll be back in action next weekend at Harrah's and this time I hope I
can add to the fireworks over the Fourth of July celebration.
Regards,
CoachVee & Hedy
