Forlorn Friday. I lost my $25 Caesars table FP on a ten to out. I won $10 on my $25 dollar BP FP. The JOB progressive carousel was down upon arrival. It came back soon, downgraded to 6/5. I lost $220 in two BP hours. Resorts drained $300 in 2.5 hours. I hit an AC ATM; returned to Caesars. Quad three was a blown min bet. But undaunted, I circled back to this machine within five minutes. Fifteen smooth minutes later, max quad Aces. Net Day: -$136. 147 TCs.

So, the Resorts boycott is over? How many times have you sworn off Resorts and cut up their card or, as you reported on September 27, 2023 "threw my Resorts card into a puddle upon exiting?"

And by the way, that Illinois basketball player who you were so critical of, was found innocent by a jury in his rape trial. Only took them 90 minutes for the decision and upon interview, 2 jury members said it was hard to convict without any of the accused's DNA. There was LOTS more about this case that came out at the trial. Including that the accuser, after going to the hospital and submitting to rape testing, went back to the same bar where the "rape" occurred.

Thank you. It was a massive relief to get that eleventh hour bailout pardon after such massive earlier losses. Only a quarter of my original bankroll was fried.
Regrettable Resorts return. I should have held fast to my convictions. I was so disoriented and despondent after the massive Caesars JOB downgrade performed before my very eyes for maximum shock value. I could no longer pivot back to that carousel’s safety when dollar BP ran cold. But I may have to in the future, or flee to Harrah’s and try my luck there. Nothing good ever happens at Resorts for me. Either a short coin fiasco or a full coin bust. Time for another plastic shredding or tossing ritual.

Isn't it a bailout only when you get back all of your losses? So, it was an eleventh hour partial bailout.

True enough. Only emotionally was I made whole.

Forlorn Friday. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on an eight point hit. I won $20 on my BP machine FP and hit a small quad. Off to a comped Resorts room. I was granted a max quad deuces. Hard Rock dinner. Next morning, I yearned to play. I lost almost twice the quad in 90 minutes. End of getaway day play. Net Day: -$185.

No pictures of the room? Of the dinner? Of the restaurant waitress? Of the free water?

Disappointment on all ends of the spectrum.

I really liked the free water pic in the fridge pic! 😂 Good luck next trip though.

Merry Monday. I was determined to recoup last trip’s loss last night. Two quads is my sweet spot on the gambling parabola. I won my $25 Caesars table FP on a nine point hit. I won $20 on my $25 BP dollar FP. My dinner plan was shelved upon seeing a dealt $2,200 DDBUX quad deuces with kicker. Area must be hot. Ten minutes later, max quad nines. Exactly one hour later, max quad fives. I foolishly lost $30 on 6/5 quarter JOB in the interim, which did mitigate dollar play risk. Jackpot lady had not left her machine 90 minutes later. Net Day: +$148. 38 TCs.
