Just returned from a visit up north, staying at Harrah's Joliet. I had great weather and good gaming results.
They are cracking down on camera use in the casino, but here are a couple of pics that I took when they were not looking...
FINALLY got those first four perfect cards in DreamCard, and then...

I usually do not play this game in the casino, but thought I would give it a try for a while. I actually caught the Joker for the additional $4k ...

Next trip is Biloxi in a couple of weeks for a golf tournament, and of course, a little gaming.

Nice hits billyjoe, last couple handpays there they gave me a bit of hassle while I was taking a couple pictures too. You just need to get them to "be distracted" when you take the picture.

After the royal I bet he didn't! Sorry I couldn't help myself. And nice pull of that DreamCard, billyjoe. It doesn't help you're addicted to the version of the game that makes it appear the least.

I know - TDB. Whay can I say ?
To Sam's question, that DreamCard win was on a Five Star Poker machine, so at the $1 level, it is $10 a pull. Other DreamCard machines are 3-5 way, which at the $1 denom would be $30-$50 a pull to play.
BTW, I was playing a Good Times Pay $1 machine in High Limit next to a guy playing 10-way, $5 STP. That's $300 a pull ! He had two bricks of Benjamins in $10k straps in the tray in the front of the machine, and another wad of $100s that he held in his hand as he feed them into the machine. I actually got nervous playing next to him, and moved.
I think Roveer (Mr STP) would have been proud of him.

Joliet offers $5 10-play STP? I definitely didn't look closely last trip, but that seems like a lot higher payout risk than I expect the casino to take. Although you'd obviously rather be playing Powerball with a hit like this, but there still is a 1 in 243.65 million chance he hits a miracle dealt royal with 10X and Joliet has to pay him $2,000,000.
Do you remember what game he was playing? I'm doubting it was their best game ("Illinois" 98.91% Deuces).

I love the rush of going for the Joker in Ultimate 4OK. Nice hit. Also... was that dream card on a 5 star machine? If so... I am going to guess you played some Double Pay again!

Yes and Yes.. I actually played a little DoublePay at the $2 level for a while, trying for a $128k payday with a dealt RF..

In High Limit, against the wall by the cage, is a SuperStar machine which has higher denom STP, amongst its other games. He was playing $5 DDB Ten-Way, but I do not recall the paytable.
At the same time, he also was playing the machine next to him (on his left - I was at a machine on his right), which was an Ultimate X game. He was playing $2 Ten-Way, which was $200 a pull.
