When it's good......

Post by pjmaui »

Went to Fiesta Henderson last night, budget of 300.00. Put 20.00 into my first machine, not much. Put another 20.00 Aces w/kicker. Played it for a while, cashed out 300.00.
Went to second machine, put in 100.00. Caught quad aces, quad kings. Two hands after kings I was dealt quad aces with a 3. Cashed out 600.00.
Went and had dinner. Put 100.00 in third machine, quad fives. a little later aces w/kicker, half hour later aces w/kicker. Cashed out 900.00.
It was an awesome outing.

Nice hits, good little run. I'm hoping you were playing DDB and not deuces wild?

Congratulations. Fiesta indeed! I think DDB is a safe inference.

Good stuff on your hot streak! DDB can provide those good days once in a while.

Have not seen you the past few weeks.

Wanted to ask if you play 9/5 Triple Bonus Plus to get full points on your Boarding Pass players card? The strategy seems to be similar to 9/6 or 10/6 DDB except for a few differences.

Nice, a run like that is needed now and then to stay in the black (or get closer to even).

I had a similar run the other day. After an hour or so with poor results, quad 4 w/k popped - getting me ahead. Then in the next half hour, 3 cheap quads and quad 3s made for a nice profit. Then I ran for the door.

Next time who knows, might go bust without hitting any quads - playing 9/6 DDB+ (no mailers).

Hi Alpax. I play DDB 99% of the time. 2 of the machines I was playing were 9/5, 1 was 10/6. I don't even bother using my card on 10/6 machines. 12.00 for three points is a joke.

Then I ran for the door.--------------------------------Hell yes. Or in my case, run for the shore! The beach starts maybe twenty yards from the casino doors. A Royal and Run this summer would have been lovely. But time is dwindling.

Nice run! Play there because of the optimum play machines. Played there a few times when it was the Reserve but didn't do so well.
