Hollywood Joliet, IL 02/06/16

Post by Tedlark »

Well I needed to take the edge off so I headed over to Hollywood in Joliet, Il Saturday night. I sat down at my normal bank of 3/5/10 play machines and started out with .25 denom 10 play TDB. I was down about $250.00 when I caught AWAK and that put me in a good mood. About 20 minutes later I caught them again and I started doing the happy feet dance underneath the machine. I was playing for a while and I dumped about $300.00 back so I then decided to go try some Hot Roll poker at a nearby bank.

I sat down at the end machine and began play. Nothing fantastic was happening so I jumped to the machine just to the right of me. There was a couple playing the other two machines in the bank just to the right of me and I commented that it would be nice to catch a dealt hand with a big multiplier. I was playing .05 denom 10 hand TDB. About 2 minutes later I was dealt 3 aces and I caught the 4th ace on one hand with an 8 times multiplier on the board for a little $480.00 hit. About 15 minutes later I did catch that dealt hand, 4 queens dealt with a 12 times multiplier for a really nice $1,500.00 hand pay. My feet were REALLY doing the happy dance by now and the woman sitting next to me seemed a bit put off because I caught the queens. I wasn't rubbing it in; I guess she was just having an off night.

Well it happened: about 30 minutes after getting paid I was dealt trip aces when an 11 times multiplier popped up. I held the aces and crossed my fingers, I caught AWAK on one hand and regular quad aces on 2 other hands. This REALLY REALLY made my feet do the happy dance. A very nice hand pay of just over $3,100.00.

I played for a while and caught quad 3's with a kicker for another $600.00 payoff. I dumped about $250.00 back into the machine before calling it a night about 4:50 am this morning. I walked out of Hollywood Casino Joliet singing a happy tune. This was my second time playing Hot Roll for any amount of time, the first time was at Sam's Town in Tunica.

I am still having difficulty posting pictures but for those non-believers (and I can think of one in particular) I can try again to post the pictures.


Edited to correct: 2/5/10 play to 3/5/10.

Thanks jeter, I'm having issues with my new browser and I just can't sync pictures in photobucket to copy so that I can paste them here.
