Never hit the progressive at Caesars, but years ago at Ballys in their High Limit room they had full pay double jokers in triple play for dollars. $15 a spin. They also had 3x slot dollar promotions, so I played there a lot. Hit several 4k natural royals. Once I was dealt 4 to a royal and hit the natural on one line. Machine locks up and I say to the guy next to me who was an AP, nice 4k. He says look at the other 2 lines. I pulled a joker on both, so it was $500 a piece and 5k total.

Cigar smokers, eating food at the machines etc.seriously??     The cigars are everywhere in AC now, with fewer casinos naturally the Stogie Fogies are concentrated among fewer places to play so they are now inescapable.....A month ago on my last visit to South Jersey and AC I recall two different incidents sitting next to or near enough to Cigar chompers to be gassed out of consciousness for a few moments, one at the Golden Nugget (where the proximity and demarcations between smoking & Non-smoking sections are extremely blurred as well as pretty close ), the other at Ballys.    And at Harrahs (where I was staying), I sat in the smoking section when it was empty of actual people/smokers around 1:30 a.m. on a Monday Night but found myself sitting along a row of machines with several FULL ash trays, two of which had large remnants of the smelliest cheapest stogies this side of Miami.....when I went to move one of them out of my way I accidentally spilled the contents, some of which wound up on my leg and shoe!   grrrrrrAhhh, that's the price of living in a "free society", people are free to kill themselves (and others) and there isn't thing one we can do to protect ourselves, or even protect the actual smoking idiots suffering from cognitive dissonance from THEMSELVES!For all the suffering being caused by illegal substances/drugs we keep hearing about these days (especially the Heroin/Opioid epidemic), it is STILL Tobacco that kills by far the most people every year.   It needs to be finally done away with and made illegal too.

DB, no problem with the Caesars clientele today. The morbidly obese scooter dependent single coin obnoxious jackass yelling for drinks and commenting on my hands despite my headphones was absent. I hit a Straight Flush right after my free play sampler. Slainte!
