It's nice to clear out a progressive bank once in awhile

#1

Hello Everyone-

Last weekend I was at MSS and noticed one of the .25 DDB progressive banks (across from the cashier) was over $1,880. Sat down at one machine- there were three seats open, surprisingly- and didn't like the light reflection I was getting, so I moved to the next seat over. Holding the 10, Q K of spades, I drew the A J for a nice $1,886.00 jackpot about 15 hands in. I stood up and said "Sorry everyone, but I just hit the royal!". Before the customer service folks could get there to start the payment process, everyone on the bank had cashed out.

It's nice to have that kind of power- to clear out a bunch of people- without it being caused by a bodily function!

Thought I took a picture, but can't find it, so I thought I would brag a little instead.

Thanks, Lee.

One of the first stories I heard about progressives was about a $1
play in 1984 or earlier, before there were credit machines, at the bar
at Harrah's Tahoe when they had 2% meters. Out of 30 machines, 1 team
had something like 18, another team had around 11, and the lone non
pro had the other machine, which frequently broke down, and he hit it
for just over $30,000. The man who told me the story, who ran one of
the teams, said he played the last 48 hours straight and had to be
carried out.
