    Lol. I am quite lucky this trip.

    Ran over to my banks local branch and deposited enough to ensure a profit this trip.

    I don't know why but I feel as if being up as much as I am that I am in super cautious mode. I don't want to give it back considering its my 2nd of 4 days here.

    Enjoying some Ketel one and cran in the room...resting and will head down for some more in a bit !!

    Great TR so far! Smart going to your local bank for the deposit! I would not have the will power to do that. Hope your luck continues!

    Good luck in the tournament! I have never done well in slot tournaments. I swear I get the lowest score every round of my group session. Too bad they don't give last place a big prize, as I'd be cleaning up with wins in that case! Lol;)

    Nice hit and on first spin makes it so much sweeter! Do you take a check for at least half of handpays so you don't donk it all back in HL room? It goes fast as hell sometimes in there for me!

    No not yet. Probably any more handpays this trip I will though.

    I did go to my local bank branch and do a cash deposit to ensure all expenses are paid and a profit is guaranteed! Might have to go again.

    Winners tilt caught me I gave back about 2k in about 30 minutes after between WoF top dollar and roulette. Now I am taking a break and getting ready for my next 2 rounds of tournament play. Gotta take it easy still got a full day ahead of me.

    One of my favorite memories of this trip was while playing the 10 dollar WoF on the floor at MGM yesterday when I hit the 1200 handpay. Before the HP these two midaged gals were looking at the machine and stuck a 20 into the one next to mine. I had just hit a SPIN and they watched and were amazed as I just hit $470. They were in town for a convention and did not seem to have any knowledge of gambling.

    "You just hit 470!???"

    I was excited but considering its 20 a spin its just a "keep me going kind of spin"

    I explained it was 20 a spin and their jaws dropped.

    So we talk about the machine and I remind her always bet MAX.

    She spins hits for 100. They are celebrating and jumping up and down. I am laughing my butt off happily for them.

    I say you better take the money and run or else youll get addicted!

    5 mins later I hit the handpay for 1200 and theyre still there but have put 4 more 20s in. I also notice they are not betting max.

    I remind them to bet MAX otherwise if they hit SPIN they only get 50 bucks not a wheel spin.

    She hits max bet and gets the spin.

    $470. Theyre jumping screaming hugging me. They took the money and ran and had a nice dinner last night. And have a great story to take home.

    THIS is what it's all about. Reminds me of what got me going :)

    Might have created a new WoF addict.

    Another big hit! Congrats!

    And sounds like those ladies missed reading this sign.

    But at least they won!

    I'm a MBay/Delano Homie since 2003. Those 2 machines on the left where the couple are sitting are MY "oh well, late at night too many drinks have $2500 left in purse, may as well play. I've watched them go at $101,000 and $106,000...never me.
