That was mine. After two long, dry years and at least 3+ royal cycles in
2008 alone, I have finally popped my cherry.
I went to Sam's Town Saturday night for their 6x points, and all their
full-pay Deuces Wild machines were taken, so I went into their upstairs
casino for the first time.
Who knew they had an upstairs casino? Lots of noisy coin-droppers and a
clientele boasting so many oxygen tanks and chain-smoked cigarettes that
it's a wonder they still have an upstairs casino. And a bank of progressive
full-pay Jacks or Better games. So I figured, what the hell and sat down.
I played a few hundred through the machine and was down about $20 when this
happened.
Dealt ATQKd. Drew J. Machine immediately locked up. No music, though. An
attendant came out and promptly hand-paid me $1,107.
I was desperately in psychological need of a win, and have seen someone else
hit the FPDW PROG royal at the Palms every time I've been there for a
month. I had gone at least six weeks without a session that was positive by
more than a double sawbuck. So the timing of this could not have been
better.
I swear to god, losing my virginity wasn't this much of a relief. Why would
it have been? This took longer, cost more and required more effort.
Although unlike when I lost my virginity, some guy had to finish the process
for me by hand.
