Video Poker was so bad it was good!

Post by wildman49 »

Had some AC work done in the morning ($750) new coil in the furnace.

I was going to sit today out but could not fight it off and off I go. Wife working. Took $1000 bankroll for some $5 a hand. Was down hill for the 3 hours I was there. Played 3 games BP, JOB and NSUD. No go lost $900.

The rest of the story goes like this. I was down near $500 halfway thru the session when I was dealt a straight. Now I'm playing JOB so a it pays 20 coins. I hold the 5 cards hit the button and up come BONUS JACKPOT!

On Fridays they have rolling pots that hit at random for what tier you are. Never thought I would be a lucky Diamond Player! Today was my day!


As Paul Harvey used to say, "Now you know the rest of the story!"

Good Luck Chasing the Royal!

What a way to save the day. You should buy a lottery ticket! Very nice and better than a royal.

That's a $223 denomination machine (not $1) that pays $4461 for a straight. Congratulations!

Were you puzzled at all about WTHH ?
I was on 5/31 at 5:34:44 PM when i hit the same Bonus Jackpot for$4555.
I am not usually there on Fridays so i had never thought about it.
I was down $1K with last $200 in the machine (left side in the high limit) with a razgu on the deal when she locked up. No idea for about 5 seconds until the little screen at the bottom said "Bonus Jackpot has been hit", and the amount.
Wish i could do pics. but i won't forget this 2-fer and will keep W2G in my wallet for our eventual meet.
Maybe 5/17 or 5/18 bonus day. (NW hat).
