I was visiting Biloxi in February 2020, staying at Harrah’s Gulf Coast. I had been playing all day and losing. Remembering I had some birthday FP at The Beau Rivage, I went over there hoping to turn my $150 FP into at least $300. I was not very optimistic since I had been losing and was just about out of money. Lo and behold! I ended up hitting 2 Jackpots at The Beau Rivage and leaving with $2,500. To say the least, I was thrilled since I had won back most of what I had lost and was going back home to Texas the next morning. I returned to Harrah’s and “decided” to go into the casino to “smoke 1 cigarette.” Well... I started playing Super Triple Play draw poker and promptly lost $1,000 of my newly won money. Moved one seat over to the Double Super Times pay Poker and started playing 10 lines, Double Double, 25 cents, max bet. Disgusted with myself for losing even more money, I finished my drink, put my cigarettes in my purse, ready to leave, and decided to play “One More Hand!” It dealt me 4 cards to a RF, 10

, as the 5th card showed the super times pay of 10X. I remember thinking at that point, “please let me get at least 1 Royal Flush.” To my astonishment, the card revealed under the 10X was K
which completed the Royal Flush and then the 10X changed to 20X. I Won $200,000 on a $17.50 bet!! When I called my husband who was at our home in Texas to tell him, I had to repeat it 3 times before he really understood, lol. It was late and he was asleep. Later, he said he thought that he had dreamed it.
It took a while to get paid, because they had to call the gaming commission to come in and verify it. Everybody kept asking me why I wasn’t screaming for joy. The only thing I could surmise was that I was in Total Shock!!
