Fantastic Weekend @ Shreveport, LA
Decided to take a quick trip to Shreveport after receiving an invitation to the $20,000 Dinner Giveaway. Upon arrival, literally, upon arrival I went to the Progressive $1 Video Poker and within the first 5 hands....voila....

Continued hitting 4OAK in rapid succession until I had to go to the dinner. At the dinner, they gave away 10 $500 Vouchers for play and 8 $1000 vouchers for play. In addition, they chose table numbers and everyone at the table received $100 in play. All of that came with having Steak & Lobster for dinner. The last $1000 Voucher called was won by my Sweet J!
The next morning, our play at the Horseshoe was not paying off, so Sweet J and I decided to travel to Margaritaville and try our luck. I cashed in $1200, $600 and another $1000 without those pesky 1099s to contend with. We made a quick trip through Sam's Town to acquire our free Hamilton Beach Iced Coffee Maker and then off to what proved to be the Highlight....El Dorado!
Sweet J led the way with this hit on her 3rd hand....after throwing every thing away....she got this....

Within 10 minutes...I had to show Sweet J who was the boss......

It'll be hard to top this in Las Vegas next week, but we're sure going to give it our best shot!

What a fun winning trip report, butchp! Congrats! Never underestimate those vouchers - someone has to get them! What a nice bankroll for Vegas! Win big again and report back to us! A win any time is okay by me but if I had a choice, I should win when I am about to leave for home! Then, there's a better chance of getting out the door with the $.

Wow.....nice jackpots! It's funny how the "held" signs showed up on a 5 card drawn royal and they didn't on the other drawn non-held cards in the other royals.
