2025 debut

[TripleTriple]

Figured I should go and cash my Super Bowl ticket before I lose it or worse, so I headed down to Harrahs Wednesday for the first trip of the year. Checked in at VIP, got my new players cards and went to the sportsbook. Thought I was getting a W2-G, but they paid me out all cash- Go Birds! Declined a Phillies futures bet- for now. Swiped for a 5x TC promo and was on my way.

Up and down, no hand pays but a couple dealt quads and a late kicker hand preserved the bankroll in a modest win. Headed out around 04:30 to beat the morning rush. "Mrs and I on tap for next month..."

Dealt straight: 14
Dealt flush: 8
Dealt boat: 6
4oak: 6d,4,6,10,Jd, 3w4
4RF: 2
Kickers: 1
2065 TC

That sounds like a good session, congrats!

I don't know why, but sanity prevailed when they established the rules for sports bets. I think the threshold is 300x your bet amount. I've had a few wins above $1200 on US-regulated sports apps, and never a tacky form.

I'm considering transitioning to all sports bets but I'm leery on account of my horrendous record.
As stressful as VP is, I find sports betting to be more intense- probably because much more is riding on a single outcome.

Perfect! You're less likely to be limited if you lose .

All of my big payoffs were arbed. I'm adept at taking the fun out of things.

Glad you had a successful trip TT.

Really good workmanlike trip. Many objectives achieved. Do you play the end machines on the last bank, extreme right? I play the middle and opposite end machines. I’ve had the same luck. Vanilla BR preservation affairs.
