It was 4 aces with a kicker, pays the same in triple double bonus.

Great. I can't even hit a garden variety four digit RF.

[oobla]

He was playing 10 play at 1250 per hand.I wonder how much he went through before he hit that.Of course,as much as he makes, I guess it doesn't matter.Must be nice.

[FAA]

I imagine that he will forego the massive FP from all the coin in.

Wow. And lucky too! Just got it from one Ace!

I appreciate Floyd just a tiny bit more for putting VP in his gambling repertoire.

So a pair of dealt jacks, even if you don't improve them on the draw, is a signer!?

A six figure signer.

So a pair of dealt jacks, even if you don't improve them on the draw, is a signer!?Yes --- but not in the way you're used to.When you're playing large machines, casinos have a lot of ways to speed up the W2G process. Sometimes a casino employee sits behind you and whenever you get 48 credits or more (which is what it is on a $25 machine), you pause while they record the number. At the end of the session, you sign for one accumulated number.At the Cosmopolitan, if you get it set up appropriately, every time you hit a jackpot the machine freezes until you enter your pin number into a keypad. That adds that jackpot to the log and you again get one form at the end.In both of the examples above, the credits stayed on the machine so they didn't have to pay you in cash. if the jackpot is big enough ($50,000 --- $100,000 --- $250,000 ---  whatever number the casino sets, really), then it stops and you get a handpay. Other casinos have similar techniques. You definitely do NOT want to do this in states where you cannot write off casino losses against casino wins.

Yeah that would be just brutal.
