Rib CookOff Trip Report

Went up to Reno over the holiday weekend.
Stayed at JANugget on an invite for the Rib Cookoff (VIP Village tix).
My personal favorite rib was the Willingham with a close second Razorback.
Friday night it was so packed at JANugget that we went over to GSR to play.
Managed to finally get a legitimate JACKPOT.

It was funny when it happened too...because I was trying to teach a buddy of mine how to play vP, and we were sitting next to each other on the machines near the main cage, and I got dealt the 4 card, and I tapped my buddy on the shoulder and said "This is how you do it" and I hit draw and BAM, King of Diamonds; JACKPOT! $1209.27
So I played the machine down to an even number (I had put a $100 in; so I cashed it out with $100).
Went back over to JANugget to call it a night, and while walking over to the Cafe, I sat down real quick on a 3/5/10 play 25c 9/6 DDB Super Times pay. Played 3 play, and was down a little bit, when I held AA and on the first hand hit AA2! I immediately yelled at my buddy who had walked into the cafe to come back and look at what I hit. He literally couldn't believe I hit ANOTHER good hit ($500).
So, the next day, I said EFF IT and bellied up to play dollars...I've been wanting to play these old coin-drop 9/6/4500 JoB machines. So my buddy wanted to play first, seeing as I had already hit my money (LOL) so he sat down and started playing and he hit a quad and then a dealt straight flush wheel! So I told him to move and I started playing and a little bit later, I hit the same straight flush and a quad myself.
So I ended up not playing craps at all this weekend (and truthfully, I don't think I ever will again!) and I played strictly that dollar JoB and put through $2k each day and I came home only losing that $375 that I hit on the $1 machine. (I kept the $1700 in tact)
As Borat would say...VEDDDY NIIICE!
