Interestingly, I was going to post something similar about my trip to Vegas on the last weekend of June. I have never, ever in many years of gambling had such good luck on a single trip anywhere. Granted, I've hit bigger amounts - $20k on a single win and multiple $4-6k wins over the years - but they were usually included with lots of uneventful play. This particular trip I was hitting everything I touched and ended up playing with the casino's money the entire trip.
Here's a rundown of the bigger wins I had (I had many, many hits from 200-300 between these - I just can't recall all of them):
$400 - a few hits on 25 cent VP progressive at Caesars near parking garage
$1100ish - RF on same machine at Caesars (both this and the previous hit were on a $20 coin in and within 30 minutes of starting play on my Vegas trip)
$500 - $1 progressive VP at Caesars (I think there's only one bank of 8 machines)
$400 - same $1 machine at Caesars
$600-700 - 25 cent multi-line VP near high limits at Mirage (quick quads maybe??)
$500 - AAAA+2,3,4 25 cent VP progressive at Mirage (closest to front doors)
$800+ - AAAA+2,3,4 25 cent (15 quarter max) video poker at NYNY near Italian restaurant (I think I was playing 6 or 8 quarters)
$350 - Monopoly at MGM near bar and rainforest
$550 - video penny progressive machine at Rio (video Stampede I think??)
$300 - 25 cent progessive VP near mardi gras area at Rio
BTW - I downloaded the iwinpoker for the iphone based on someone's recommendation on here. It is well worth the $5.99 price - I really liked the "analyze a hand" and it was simple to use.

Hello all, not posting here to brag (I only play nickels anyway), but I want to see if anyone else has a stretch of good luck like I have been experiencing. Since my trip to Vegas in May, here are my recent jackpots:
May:
$200 RF @ Palace Station (5-Nickels)
$250 4 Deuces @ Slots-A-Fun (Loose Deuces, two sets within 10 hands)
$50 4 Deuces (Orleans)
$400 RF @ Tropicana AC (10-Nickels)
June:
$800 RF @ Tropicana AC (Two RF's [10-Nickels] within 30 minutes on the same machine)
July:
$400 RF @ Harrah's Chester (10-Nickels)
$100 4 Deuces (Same machine, 15 minutes later)
That being said, has anyone else experienced a good streak like this? Should I quit while ahead, haha?
