    A special thank you to whoever mentioned this game (I think it was Gaggles, but I can't find the thread).

    The bank is near the bar by the new poker room and it has great drink service. Sat down there on Sunday morning and my wife hit her first premium quad ever. I followed it up with this beauty about 3 minutes later:

    First ever dealt royal for me! Took me a minute to figure out why I couldn't hold anything.

    Just curious about your last comment. Does the machine automatically hold the cards in this situation, so you can't even screw it up? Knowing that would likely end a recurring nightmare i have.

    Yes, all dealt Royals lockup the machine. My wife has gotten two and me one.

    Yep, I also believe it auto holds dealt Aces w/kicker on triple double bonus too since it pays the same as the royal. Not positive though as I can't stomach that game.

    And nice hit!

    Nice! 9/5 on DDB is awesome on the strip. I will check this out tomorrow. How many machines are there in that area?

    The progressive bank is 8 machines. Two rows of four, back to back.
