Highlight of Dec 12 - 18 Vegas trip

#1

I'm not going to give a complete trip report but would like to share
an extraordinary event that happened to me at the RIO. We were
booked for 3 nights at the RIO and I had planned to play VP at Palms
and Gold Coast while there and pretty much stiff the RIO since their
VP is among the worst in Vegas. Also the comped rooms were on my
husband's card so I knew I wouldn't be tripped if I didn't play.

Thursday evening, while my husband was playing black jack, I sat down
at one of the bars near his table just to get a drink and wait on him
to finish so we could walk to the Palms.

I started playing .50 DB (really bad 9/6/4 paytable- 96.38%) ended up
putting in $300 but here's what I got:
first was 4 - 9's, then (A)(A)Q (A) A -- () means I held that card
dealt 4 - 9's
(6) 3 6 (6)(6)
J J(J)(J)
2 (6)6 6 (6)
(10) 7 10 10 (10)
DEALT 4 Q's
S.F. IN CLUBS (5) 6 (7 8 4)
4 (K)(K)K (K)
A 5 5 (5) (5)
(6) (6) 6 (6) X
Held the K-Q of spades and the A, 10 and J filled in for a $2000
SPADE ROYAL. Waited for the hand pay and at this point I switched to
DDB on the same machine just to see if streak would continue:
DEALT 4 8's
dealt 4 aces w/k, dropped the K and got an 8
then two hands later
(A) A (A) 4 A $1000 bucks, thank you very much
(6) (6) 10 6 (6)
A (2) (2) 2 2
(6) (6) 6 J (6)

In three hours of the most exciting VP I have ever played, got my
$300 back and cashed out a profit of $3900. Even before hitting the
Royal and getting the hand pay, everyone at the bar was watching -
even the bartender kept coming back every few minutes to see if I had
another quad.

It's ironic that I planned this trip to play 10/7 DB which I did at 4-
queens, El Cortez, and anywhere else I found it and never won a dime,
I broke even or lost everytime I played it and then hit the jackpot
with 9/6/4 - go figure.

P.s. I tried that same machine the next day and couldn't get 3 of a
kind on it, put a $100 back in, trying.

Thanks, I enjoy these so much! I know there are more losing sessions
and like to read about those too. But, these stories are so much
more fun! It reminds me of some of the good session I've had in the
past. I've had Quad runs like this and still lost on the session.
Still, they were a lot of fun!
Thanks for sharing!

Same thing has been happening to me at an amazing pace. No royals on
10/7 db in 2006. No royal on FPDW despite massive play. Only 1 $1
royal all yr (major 3-5 line play) despite huge coin in (waiting for
a few casinos to confirm my ghastly total). 7 2006 royals total with
3 on a 10 play 10c BP 7/5 while I was waiting for someone at the Cal
all on diff hands over 12 hands. 1 on a 9/6/4 DB 10 play at Sams
while waiting. I almost never play either terrible PT - no need to.
Now yesterday was playing 8/6 JOB 3-play at Sams through for $20 as
2 royals over $2000 & dealt royal over $12k. Of course I hit the
$1133 royal. Both pleasing & frustrating at the same time as .1% of
my play generating 2/3 of the royals but no $5 & only 1 $. Don't
want to become a garbage collector but at least I have started to
collect :wink: At least the New Years Eve party at Sams was nice...
