Harrah's Joliet - Welcome in 2026

Post by Tedlark »

After watching the Chicago Bears pull out a miracle 4th quarter win against the Green Bay Packers, I decided to head over to Harrah's, Joliet to see if I could replicate.

Being down about $600.00, I hit the end zone with:

I hit some other nice small hits over the course of the next couple hours and left up about 3k after getting off the roller coaster ride. I think I'm starting to like Double Super Times Play.

This is a 96.45% game, the return is worse than ugly. You do need some good luck to beat the very large house edge.

According to vpfree2, there is 99% DDB at $1/2/5 available there, you may consider playing it in the future.

Thanks, CBK and Bill.

Atomic - I don't play DDB. I would become a Packer fan or be forced to watch "Blues Brothers 2000" over and over, before playing DDB. Plus, I'm not the type of player who Is concerned too much about the house edge.

Best of luck to you all.

Way to start the year. If you're going to play SXP(STP) you may as well play DSXP. I'm lifetime positive for the game but don't care for it. Did very well in the few times at PA casinos.
Be careful how much you like a certain game, there is almost always a steep price of admission. You know. You know I know.

In the end too much luck to avoid the new reporting threshold. Hard to do on ten play I imagine.
