Happy Days are Here Again! Thank You, Joliet

[marie meijer]

Today, my first $20 turned into $7G! I had $7.50 left when I saved three clubs and a royal smiled on me. .25 single line, TDB, Game Maker in front of BLUE BAR. I switched to $ play. That royal was disappearing all too fast so I switched to .50 and four aces provided a hand pay of $2G. While awaiting payment, I returned to $ play and hit awaks again for $4G. 9/6 on $ play but only 8/5 on .25 and .50.
Many thanks to vp.com members who have posted favorably about playing VP at Harrah's Joliet. This was our first visit and the only machine I played there for an hour and half.

   Way to go Marie.

Beats the heck out of Wall Street investing.

Thanks, Larry. We are riding out the cold, wet and wind here in Chicago for a week while son is here on business. Either due to being my first visit or my VP play, the casino gave me four nice crystal wine glasses, $25 free play, $20 restaurant voucher AND a free night that we probably cannot use. I had lost my Chicago bankroll when we stopped at Gun Lake casino before leaving Michigan. Hubby caved and handed me $100 for the casino and said we could play there for two hours. (!)

marie,
I had to laugh. It is not a pretty sight watching a grownup pout over a lost bankroll when the other still has money. So Sweet C and I share whatever is left in our own $ to not have to deal with the tears.

I remember something in our wedding vow about " for richer or poorer!!!" but didn't realize it meant gambling too.

We've had the wind but as dry as Texas has been we'd graciously take the rain too.

Investment advice: invest in hay futures!!! Hundreds of 18 wheelers are coming into the state daily bringing bales of hay from out of state at over $150/bale.

Congrats Ms. Marie!

Congrats Marie, when you are hot you are hot.    So happy for you!!!

Many thanks, luigi1, edog, Okathy and Larry. "What a feeling" when that dry spell is OVER! There is a good reason why I have not been posting wins lately. There's also a  possibility $100 might last me about five min. After two hours of play, I am just getting warmed up for a loooong session. Hubby doesn't understand these concepts.

This was my home casino for many years and I always enjoyed the VP there.
