Hi,
As I 've previously reported, I was at the Sun for a two night stay
at the end of Jan. I diligently played both the $ PE and 9/6 Jacks
and
was basically getting beat up beyond belief. I mean nothing was
working. Finally in disgust I ventured into playing some Atl. City
Joker. This is a very volatile game ( 97.2% ER, Var. something like
50+), which has a top payout of 4k coins for 5 of a kind. I normally
would never touch this game but I had been having some recent success
in AC at the quarter level .
I sat down to play a quarter machine and managed( thanks to a 500
coin str.fl) to win a few hundred. I took a break for about a half
hour. I came back and decided to use my "winnings" and play a 50
cent
machine. This was one of the many machines at the Sun in which you
have to be careful or you'll wind up wagering 25 instead of 5 coins.
Anyway I did get some play but unfortunately went through my two
Benjis. I decided to put in a third one and accidently hit the max
coin button. "Oh shit" I said aloud but was at least relieved when
three ducks appeared, because three of a kind pays 2:1. Well you
guessed it. On my draw I picked up the Joker and the fourth duck
giving
me a $10k jackpot.
Unbelievable!!!
I spent the rest of my trip playing only a little Joker and
coninuing my lousy luck on $ Jacks!
In spite of the losing I did manage to bring home 2/3 of the
jackpot.
