Harrah's Joliet 7-20-24

Post by Tedlark »

After watching "From Here to Eternity" Saturday night, I decided to go for a drive to Harrah's Joliet. After getting up about 1.5k from a few $1 denom ACJP straight flushes I decided to head into high limit to tempt fate with $2 denom. I wasn't in high limit long, got crushed. Beside losing what I was up, I also lost half of the bankroll that I had with me. Exiting high limit with my tail between my legs, I say down at one of my usual machines and didn't do anything there. Having lost more, I then switched machines to further go down the rabbit hole.

A couple minutes in:

This put me about even for the night and re-armed for more battle, I pressed on. Doing my usual TDB - ACJP flip flop, then:

I'm now in happy dance land and while still clutching the payout receipt waiting to get paid, much to my surprise:

After getting paid for the two jackpots, I lost back about 1k before calling it a night. Paid my $20.00 rent to the cocktail server working the section and I went home much happier than I envisioned a couple hours earlier.

Thanks, OMT.

Stupidity and sufficient bankroll are 2 good reasons.
