How I spent My Saturday

[Tedlark]

Thanks everyone, it was a fun outing and I did get over to Harrah's Joliet yesterday to pick up my gas card. I didn't play at all and just had lunch because I had to get back and clear another 4 inches of fresh snow. Olds I'm 10 minutes away from Midway and they registered 20" of snow Thursday through Sunday. Last year I bought a new Toro 27" 2 stage thrower and this was the first year I actually got to put it through it's paces and it handled the deep stuff like a champ. When I help neighbors like this little do they know its playtime for me as well.

Double L I still prefer Dream Card over Magic Deal but that's probably because I haven't logged enough playing time on Magic Deal as of yet. I remember a very nice weekend in Las Vegas a couple years ago playing Dream Card at the M and it included a 10 handed dealt royal.

As for the waffle maker; I'll take it for a test drive soon as there are few smells better than fresh made waffles.

I'll try and post the pictures tomorrow.

You sure don't waffle on max betting. Everything in moderation. I stick to fruit myself.

Congratulations Mr. Ted. You get what you give and the VP Gods smiled on your favour. Strange that you didn't draw a spade RF but what the heck. Nice outing!

[Tedlark]

Thanks Ed, for the purrfectly spoken thoughts.


Mmmm, waffles. Maybe I'll test drive my new wafflemaker this weekend.

Ted how are those pictures coming along ?

[Tedlark]

I'll get them up as soon as I find some off the internet.

Kidding of course, I couldn't help but get some people's hopes up. I'll make time to get it done tomorrow.

No shoveling today as the skies were bright, shiny, and cloud free.

I dashed over to Harrah's Joliet to pick up a nice gas card and the line was a bit long because it was still a couple minutes before noon; the time the give away was to begin. I decided to spend a few minutes in front of a machine so I picked one and sat down. Started with .25 10 play ACJP and managed to quickly hit a straight flush and a couple other smaller hands. Went to Deuces Wild Bonus and a couple hands in was dealt 3 to a heart royal. Held the 3 and pressed draw; out popped the other two to fill in a 1k royal. Cashed out a minute later up $900.00, walked over to the now line free gas card give away and picked up my gas card then kept walking right out to the parking garage and left.

Good things come to good people.

Bally's AC switched their machines to .25 10 coin. I was so mad that I haven't returned. Congratulations on the Midas Touch. Midas himself would put you on a pedestal.

Ted those pictures must be hard to,post or lost at sea to confirm your as usual outrageous claims.

[Tedlark]

Thanks daffy I guess you just tipped your hand. I'll get them posted just for you. Will you have anything to say after I post them? Do you have anything to say about the outrageous claim I made about today's play?


Edited to add: As for outrageous claims about video poker success I guess having: 374, soon to be 375, daily high scores (since this site started keeping count); and being in the all time top ten scores for at least 3 different games here on this site could help my case.
