I really could care less if FAA plays short coin or not.
How much less could you care? Or did you mean that you could NOT care less?

Let me see that legendary 250-credit royal flush of yours! Imagine hitting that and actually keeping it all without paying taxes - now that would be the real miracle, wouldn't it?

I had a valiant battle before succumbing to the short coin time kill. Will quit site before posting a short RF.

Spectacular Saturday. I won $30 on my Resorts $30 dollar BP FP. $20 of it was off a high denom one coin straight. I settled into dollar machines, lost the proceeds and another $34. I saw a $4K Huff n Puff across the room and went max nine minutes later. A dealt KA spades was not noteworthy. The draw completed the Royal Flush! I was too stunned to do much dancing. But I stood and exulted. I made eye contact with a few players, pumping my fists, and the upstairs guard. I also relayed the story to a couple passing by after taking a one minute video. The attendant was finishing up with HP and came over. He asked if I had ever hit a jackpot before. I said no. I didn’t even want to come because I was tired of losing and I usually bet below five dollars anyway. “Well, thanks God you did five dollars here.” I cashed out the remainder funds, took the check and checked out. A Baileys and Coors Light delightful duo to decompress. Too cold to dive into Atlantic in a cashmere sweater. Never even donned my lucky cap. I did stroll along the shore and took photos. A special FU to Atomic, who can eat my dust as I eat the taxes. Ted, I certainly did have “better luck next time!” Happy Chinese New Year! Hee ya! Net Day: +$3,948.

OH HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you jump into the ocean as promised? Where's the video on that? You must have had red on or, a red envelope stuffed in your pocket.

All joking aside, congratulations to you and this is just one example of the importance of playing max coin.

Now, don't take so long for a second one.

That was dealt QA, not KA. I do feel like a King. Every dog has his day. I addressed the Atlantic issue. It was a most inhospitable day outdoors.

FAA- What, no sequential? Congrats on your hand pay- long time coming. I'm equally disappointed you didn't go ocean - that totally invalidates all of your pre-handpay posts. I did the plunge in 2015 without even playing before so C'MON man!

I guess I should wish you well since you said you are outta here after your hand pay, so I will say you certainly evoked much activity on the site and if I disparaged you it was only because you deserved it.
Stay thirsty my friend...
