$2000 Oooops

[Lucky Larry]

I know better but was waiting for Sweet C to play out her last few $ and didn't want to run through the last $250 for the day. So I blew it....decided to kill time playing 1 credit.....stupid, stupid, stupid.....

Sorry about your luck LL it happens. I had a buddy down to his last buck playing single line nickels, playing 1 coin, hits his first ever royal, $12.50 hate that!

Oh yeah, seen that before....  It's not all that bad if you've been playing single coin all day, but after you've made a big investment in max coins it's nasty.   Congratulations for having the guts to post the good and the bad.

 i agree with Phil, and i will take it a step further. i do not pay much attention to those who only mention the good hits, only talk about the wins and fail remind us of the losses.  kind of like elected folks, never bring up anything they did wrong! i rarely listen to them either.

The same thing happened to my son on single play quarters. To this day that is the only royal he has ever hit.
I'v made it a practice to cash out when i get down to around the last $5 or so, then cash them out at the end of my visit.

Isn't that what Larry generally does though? This is the first time I can recall him showing anything really cringe-worthy. Especially since he could have bet 5 lines at 5 quarters with the same amount risked per round. Not that I mind he keeps most reports to the bigger wins. Enough people complain about losing on this forum anyway...

And to keep with the Lucky Larry idea, from everything I read about how these things work, if he was playing max credits, all his timing would be off and he may not have even hit a Royal at all that day if he was betting max. At least that's the more positive way to look at it anyway.

 i enjoy hearing about the big wins as much as anyone, but, i really like to hear the more complete reports about w/l. i have myself made many posts abou both posiive and negative results. and, i do not consider someone posting about a losing session as a complaint. how else is one supposed to learn whether their results are in line with what others are experiencing, if all one hears is good news. if someone wants to delude themselves into believing they can be a long term winner at a casino, that is fine. but, most understand that is unlikely.  it is all about getting a value for your entertainment dollar.

This isn't the first time Double L hit a royal when playing less than max coin in. For those who routinely play less than max coin, this picture should be no big deal but for those of us who always play max coin,this picture makes us cringe. Actually double cringe, considering that 2 royals popped up.

Edited to add: congrats just the same Double L.
