Hollywood - Joliet 12/11/21

Post by Tedlark »

Well there was nothing good on television and it has been a while since I had some fun in a casino so I decided to make a trip. Harrah's Joliet was out because I will be going there in a couple weeks to take advantage of a 5X tier credit multiplier period so I decided it was either going to be Four Winds in Michigan or Hollywood in Joliet. I decided on Hollywood and there results were more than satisfactory. I was down quite a bit after being up a couple hundred when this happened:

The hand pay music started playing and I was wondering why it was a hand pay because I was so focused on the royal to the left when it took me a moment to see that I had actually hit a second royal to the right.

After getting paid off I continued on and not long later this popped up:

Being more than happy by now I continued play and:

After getting paid I decided that I had enough of video poker so I decided to throw a few bucks into a video slot machine. I chose an old favorite called "White Orchid" and seeded it with $300.00. I had a few small hits but was down to about 240.00 when I managed to get into a bonus round. I ended up getting a bunch of bonus games and after the smoke cleared I was staring at the meter being almost $1,300.00, meaning I had a pretty nice bonus round. I called it a night and headed home at 2:30 am this morning happy that I chose Hollywood, Joliet.

Wow.. Three Royals in one session! You should have bought a PowerBall ticket on the way home.

Fantastic! and, I am so envious given the s___kicking we have been taking at Harrrahs Lake Tahoe. We still have a day or so left on our trip, so maybe we can pull a Ted comeback?

Thanks all, it wasn't mapping out to be a good night but it turned into one rather nicely.

Wildman - I haven't been going because I just don't know how comfortable I feel being around people or out in public places just quite yet but I'm adjusting.

OMT - I hope your trip ends well for you and the Mrs.

The 2 royals drawn is quite a feat and you came close on 2 others on the same draw. That's the way ya do it, get your money for nothin and your checks for free...
