Trip Report 10/11/14

Post by VivVeeTae »

Hi all, long time lurker first time poster!

My trip to the casino this weekend went really really well :) Got several big hands in just a couple hours and had lots of fun. Nice after losing several trips in a row


        TDB on a 50 play machine. 4 4's with Ace kicker:


        Straight flush with 4x multiplier:


        4 Aces #1


        4 Aces #2 (with 2x multiplier)



Also hit 2 or 3 other four of a kinds and a few other $50-$150 hands. Lots of fun when you are winning :)

Anyone else a big fan of 50 play/100 play?

Nice hits! But I'm a bigger fan of the other games you posted actually...lol

And 9/6 TDB w/STP isn't a bad find. I'm trying to think of any casino where I have actually seen it that high...billyjoe would definitely approve of that game.

Thanks guys

Vman96 I can't recall seeing 9/6 on STP anywhere else either (it was actually double super times pay) ,except maybe in Las Vegas.

What is the name of the game in the other photos? I forgot to look. Generally I am not a huge fan of the multiplier games but that was a fun one and it seemed easier to get decent multipliers compared to Ultimate X or STP.   

The bet size is bigger in 50 play but I feel you don't have to be quite as "lucky" for a nice payout..eg dealt flush pays $375 at max bet, dealt full house pays $562, and dealt three of kinds Aces or 2's-4's can be a monster hand.

Really nice hits. There are a number of us that play multi-hand and I'm addicted to multi-hand versus single hand.

Welcome to the forum. Keep posting. Did I miss which casino?

Welcome Viv.....Nice pictures too.....I am stunned, and a little frightened even, at your 50 hand win!     Well actually you only played 43 hands (lol) but at 25 cents a credit thats $54 bucks a deal!!    That's playing deep, at least in my book!     And TDB no less!     Is this your typical level of play or was this a "once in a while shot in the dark?"     More importantly, where were you playing (what casino?)AGain, welcome and  I look forward to your continued posting.

Thanks for the nice words...

These were at a casino in Iowa, send me a message if you would like to know exactly which one.

I like to play for big wins, unless the paytables suck or I am just after free drinks. :)

So to answer your question playing that much would be normal as part of my fewer hands, but larger bets strategy. Often I will just pop in for 20 or 30 minutes and make a dozen or so bets like that one.

That being said I wouldn't drop $50 a hand on a single line game. In 50 play, even if you get dealt 5 duds, on the re-deal you are going to get at least some of your money back. Not true with single line, although I realize the long term return is the same.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the really nice hits. Keep both coming. My wife loves the Multi Streak game and tdb also. I usually play single line games, but have on a few occasions taken the plunge on fifty or one hundred play. This is mainly because the paytables are always lower on those machines at least where I play in Ct. I can't remember ever being dealt anything great on that bottom line.
