So I have been off of work for the past 4 weeks after having foot surgery and still have 4 more to go, so a friend took me out for the day and we went to the closest casino to us (about 45 min. away), and I was playing the penny slots and won more than the $10.00 I started with, so I went to the $1 slots, and on the second try I won $150.00!! So I took $3.00 of that and played the same machine and won another $150.00....so then we left. (I did take my friend out for dinner with my winnings.) I am such a happy camper right now..
FYI: I had set my spending limit to $20.00.

Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
Congrats! That's a big smile, right?


Like 10 years ago, Gary and I were checking out of an RV park in Vegas. (We had to stop to get repairs). I played a game of video poker while he was checking out. I had three diamonds - face cards. So I drew the two - and got a royal flush! It was worth $3,000! It paid for the RV Park and the repairs - and gas to the midwest.
That's a once in a lifetime thing.


Hope you enjoyed dinner!

Laurie

My sister won $700 on the slots and started with $20. That was all she took to the casino. I say pretty good return on investment.

congrats!! I've always wanted to check out a casino, but I get really mad if I don't win, so I try to avoid gambling at all costs.... my family still teases me about the time a few Christmases ago when we were playing this dice game and I lost about $20 and got MAD!!!! I'd like to go to the casinos for the buffets

At the second try, I once again set my spending limit to only $20, but won after only spending $3, so yep, I said really loud "I'm done, lets go".
