Quick (Quads) Lunch - Hollywood, Aurora

Post by Tedlark »

Work put me near enough the Hollywood Casino in Aurora, IL today that I decided to stop in for lunch. I noticed that their sole Quick Quads machine was vacant so I decided to test fate and seeded it with $1,000.00.

I was down to $250.00 and resigned to a losing session when after being dealt 4 to the royal:

I decided to mutter on and play down to $500.00 and:

I then figured I'd play down to my original $1,000.00 and:

Lunch was over and I left up $900.00 without getting a decent Quick Quads hit.

Congratulations. I also love the transparency of information. The machines tell you points today and length to next point. CET only gives TCs on current machine. Borgata is even more opaque.

Hearts afire! Only how come you didn't up denomination- especially after the kicker hand?

I didn't think about upping the denomination until after I got out of there and I don't really like to play "what if." But with the way Quick Quads can make a bankroll pull a Houdini it would be a cause for pause.
