I played a LOT more blackjack Friday night and Saturday at the Golden Eagle than is did VP quite simply, because there were people camped out on the only good (not great) nickel machines. However, I did get in about an hour on one of the machines before we had to leave.
First, I hit the following....note that it was DEALT! FINALLY, after over a YEAR, my Royal Dry Spell is OVER!

Then, about 10 minutes, I hit the following (Hmmm, something is wrong with the "Insert Picture" thingie)

Then to top it off....a picture of a sign on the Toilet Bowl in a Super 8 Motel we were staying at!

Now think about it!

Nice job, Mike! Congrats! I knew you were suffering from a long royal drought like I went through for two years. I thought yours had already snapped, but it seems your rut didn't finish until just today. Wow!I always thought you couldn't take pictures in a casino. Some seem to allow this and others don't. Anyway, keep hitting those Royals! (Sorry to see you didn't get it on quarters or higher).I didn't know Golden Eagle had 9/6 DDB at nickels. I thought the best games were 25c/$1 9/7 DB.....been quite a while since I've been there, though.~Benford's Law

Yeah, they're back in the back by the restrooms. There are 4 of them and they are usually tied up with old farts playing nickel keno for 1 credit a pop!As for the pic, when the attendant came to hand pay, I thought of the phone camera and asked him to turn the other way for a second. He obliged. They are pretty anal at Golden Eagle about cell phones but everyone carries them but are pretty sly about using them.

"Lord, he has suffered" Congratulations on the end of the dry spell.
You also almost won a "most non-sequential" award, but the King was in the right place.

Congratulations Mike! It's about daggone time. Now if I could only get these Vp Gods to excersize the demons from me, I might post a picture or two likewise!

Mike, I tried accessing your toilet sign but my computer won't cooperate. Did you post it here or on your blog?

Ed, I had no problem cutting and pasting the link into my browser. For some reason the software doesn't seem to be recognizing Mike's links as URLs.
