Luckiest birthday ever

[Jeanette]

I was playing $1 DB at the MGM Grand in Detroit on my 51st birthday January 12th. I held one Ace and got three more and a 3 on the draw for a $2.000 jackpot!

Are you sure it was not DDB and you got 4 aces with a kicker?

[Jeanette]

Yep, that is correct. It was DDB poker. My typo. Thanks

Either way, that's one HAPPY birthday! Congrats!

I found your lucky DDB $ machine this morning at MGM Detroit and also hit AWAK! 'Looked like a lot less after I had the 34% state and fed taxes taken out. The progressive was getting up there but happy day anyway. That was after hitting a royal on 10 play STP for #10, rfonlymama. (Dealt 3RF) I needed inspiration after striking out on this contest.

I guess that's why we're supposed to hold that ace.  At times it seems like those other 3 are stuck on the bottom of the deck.
 
My wife and I have a history of getting royals on or around each other's birthday. This year my wife hit one the day before my birthday so I thought I was toast. Amazingly, I snuck one in the next day. It sure does make a nice present.
 
Congrats on your nice hit and may you repeat the process for many years to come.

Congratulations on the great birthday present!  I've been playing for many years but have never hit any Big Kahunas on my birthday.

Probably a good thing. I hear they often hit back.
