So I decided to head over to Harrah's Joliet on Saturday night after enjoying two of my favorite Gary Cooper movies back to back on TCM: Pride of the Yankees and Sergeant York. Feeling confident after these two uplifting movies; I set out and was promptly cleaned out of my $1,500.00 after just 1 hour. I had a couple minor hits but nothing that could sustain my play.

Out of character I went on full tilt. I left and stopped at a local atm to withdraw another $1,000.00 and I then went to Hollywood Joliet. I figured if this was going to be the day I went down in flames, then this was the day.

After sitting down at a familiar bank of All Star II machines I began play at the .50 level. I was playing about 10 minutes and was just about even when up popped this:

This put me in ORBIT!

After getting paid I upped my play to $1.00 denomination and was doing relatively well, hitting small aces, small 2's, 3's, 4's, etc. when I was dealt 3 to the royal and:



All things considered, it turned out to be a very good night.

I assume you didn't get the dealt four deuces with the three of spades kicker twice, but posted two pictures, one as the credits were ringing in, and one when they were all there.

Great hit!

You're correct OMT, I didn't hit them twice. I tried to originally post the pictures in order but it appears that there are some bugs in the picture attaching feature of the revised forum. Thanks for the congrats.

Congratulations. I would have feared crashing into a guardrail after that clean out. Just stupendous results.
