Quarter Player Has a Very Good Day!
I made my weeky trip to the Tampa Hard Rock this morning. Started out playing single line DDB max coin quarters and hit a straight flush right away. An hour later I was up $250 so I switched to max coin dollars. Within 5 minutes I drew this beauty straight up! Only the second drawn Royal I have ever had. Played $1s for another hour and hit two $800 quad aces and went home with $5,000 in my pocket. Not bad for a $250 investment.

Congrats, but it was dealt, not drawn.

Correct. Haven't had many of these so far, so I'm not used to describing these hands. However, I do know how to spend the money.

Fantastic, Phil.. Congrats.
I know they moved around a lot of the VP there. Which machines do you usually play?

The Tampa Hard Rock has Video Poker machines in both casinos and I play them all. I like to move around until I find a machine that at least let's me hang in there for a while. I know it's just mental but I have a hard time pumping money into a machine with nothing happening. My daily budget is only $300, so I need to try to avoid those situations if I can. Today, I played the new machines in the center of the main casino. I sat down and never moved the whole day. Funny thing, the lady next to me was hitting also. She got a 4 ace kicker while I was playing. She said the words you never want to say “I just can't lose!". I cringed a little when she said that, but right after that I got the Royal. The last time I had a day anything like this was back in 2008. I gave that money back playing dollars until it was gone. I'm smarter now. This should keep me in tokens for quite a while.
