Some lucky player hit The Wheel of Fortune slot machine this afternoon for $1,500,000. I won $100.

Tremendous! Do you play WOF? It was $2.5M last week at Bally's. $1.5M would suffice for me.

No, my meager winnings came on QQs.

The DF bank? I started playing JOB behind it. Decent results thus far.

Yup

Good to leave the Caesars money pit. Progressive tonight while passing through was $1,007. I actually hit last year at $1,006, when times were good. The bottom has dropped out. So did my bottom from their machines. Still avoided C today, Sat. Not paying for the ersatz elegance. No time for H, but B treated me fairly well. They actually value patronage.

Harrah's was a money pit yesterday. I did hit quads on two of the three full pay JOB machines in the carousel. Why in hell didn't I stop right there? I was sufficiently entertained and only down fifteen bucks. I lost $63 on the third machine. Third time was not the charm. 700 hands without a quad, so I got crushed like a tomato can.   

Harrah's was again a money pit. I did hit two max coin JOB quads. But I still lost $32 in 1.25 hours. It would be an $80 hourly loss otherwise, which sounds familiar. For good measure, I also missed reading or hearing my name in their $500 hourly FP promo for the first two drawings of ten players. It seems better to simply sit on my wallet with the initial FP winnings. You stay, you pay. Call it a day.

WOF, very hard machine to have luck on. I think you really need to play the highest denominations one bet or two and be done. Forget about dollars or quarters.

WOF is Bankroll Cemetary. Play Powerball. Cheaper and at least as entertaining.
