Tortured Tuesday. I lost my $25 Caesars FP on a six to out. I won $34 on my $25 machine BP FP, after a two hour delay due to system issues. Quarter and dollar play were a -$83 waste. A -$21 at Resorts worsened my night. I hit another $80 BP quad Aces and was so upset that I circled back to the machine to squeeze a few more bucks. Fortunately, I was rewarded with a max quad nines. To add insult to injury, the $1,100 JOB progressive was hit upon my Caesars return. Net Day: -$102. 18 TCs.

I hear you. I should have known better than to go back up 2 nights after a good win. Busted on Bonus Deuces Wild!

Torture Tuesday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a seven. I won $11 on my $25 machine FP. But I soon hit two max quarter quads on the same machine to leave +$30. But -$460 at Resorts. Net Day: -$430. 10 TCs.
Come to Jesus Moment: I threw my Resorts card into a puddle upon exiting. No further VP play there. Cut trip budget by 40%. Definition of insanity is not lost on me.

Seems like the scalping occurs outside of Mohegan Sun Ct as well. I find that with Mohegan Sun, better known as Bizarro World, it is feast or famine with emphasis on the latter. On a bad day there, you could easily leave behind a 4,000 dollar Royal if you played a dollar machine all day.

I think you could pretty much say that about any casino. You just have to accept that there are going to be some pretty awful days - you just hope that the really good days (and there are some of those, as well), make up for those bad ones.

10% of a RF dissolved. A pull back is long overdue.

Tedious Tuesday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a self rolled eight point hit. I won $9 on my $25 quarter JOB FP. I alternated between this progressive bank and dollar BP. A quarter machine kept me engaged, serving full houses every ten minutes. The RF dream was a stretch. It didn’t even dispense a quad until the bitter end, when it dealt a mercy quad Aces. VP gods have some sense of humor. All in all, it was good to knock the rust off last night. Net Day: +$30. 40 TCs.
