L'auberge Lake Charles Jackpot

Post by Gigi2 »

Know you love pictures but they are on my daughter's telephone - will add later.  Last Thursday my daughter and I went for one night - scored a suite on the second floor probably because the casino was empty - always beautiful place to stay.  I was playing $1 level double bonus triple play.  Not doing well - no good hits.  I had just remarked I hadn't seen drawn aces in several years and that was in Tahoe playing quarters when up popped AAAA - I held the four aces and drew 2 on the first line, then 3, then 2 on the third line for a $6,000 jackpot!  After that we just kept hitting good hands playing until around 2 in the morning.
The next morning immediately hit AAAA2 for $2,000 and before they could pay me hit a straight flush times 5 for $1250.
The funny thing was I had two hosts come up and ask me if I didn't want to stay another night - they could see I had checked out - stay and they would put us back in a suite!
For once I did the right thing - I came home with my money.

'Love your happy ending story, Gigi2! Those multiple hits just do not happen often enough! Just often enough to keep us from giving up VP forever!

Congratulations on your win.  Since the host offered a suite for that day. Ask those same host  if you can have a suite on your next trip.

Going to be interesting to see what happens when Ameristar opens their new casino up next to L'Auberge. We''l have to try to meet in LC one of these trips.

Well have to make arrangements to get together.

BTW: if you haven't been by Isle lately they are almost through updating all of the tower rooms. The new ones are really nice. The GM is really doing a great job of bringing the old hotel and casino into a competitive mode.
