Went over Friday to stay at lac for the night. PM lucky Larry to get some inside and Larry was nice enough to respond.Ten minutes after i got in the casino, I was playing tdb for 50cents and was dealt ace of spades king of spades queen of spades and a queen of diamonds and a 2 of diamonds, normally i would keep the pair of queens but decided to go for the royal and hit, which was 2000.The rest of Friday me and the wife played to winning about 1700 dollars for the day.Free room free food pretty good day.Saturday morning we played to a standstill. The machines were not hitting for anybody.so i got a buffet comp and left for home, at the last second I decided to stop at the isle. We went to the big boat on your right to the bottom floor to play some VP. NO luck at all, there was a women at ddb bonus machine that i seen hit 4of a kind 4 times in 15 minutes. The big break came for me, she gets up from the machine.I sit down an put in a hundred and I am doing ok. About 14 minute in I am dealt 4 aces and a deuce kicker for 2000 credit hit, a 1000 dollar cash payoff. My wife came over and i let here play the machine for me while i got a drink and she hit four deuces with a ace kicker. WE wet up to second floor and played some slots and they were loose. Not major hits like the old days but in the 150 to 800 dollar range I have not seen that in many years. I was impressed by the Isle this trip. Well at 6 pm was time to head home. We had a good weekend and had a net of 2400 profit.

Awesome trip.
Glad you had a super trip to LC and got my PM in time before you left. We probably just missed you and your wife as we decided on the spur of the moment to go Friday afternoon to the Isle for the night and played until early Saturday afternoon. For an old gal the Isle ain't too bad. Maybe I can just relate to her age...
Maybe your next trip we can meet up and have a meeting of the videopoker.com members. Or maybe someday we'll be able to head your way and enjoy the Riverwalk and the casino at the same time.

You may be going alone...
We have packing down to less than 5 minutes....keep a travel bag with everything but meds, clean underwear and clothes. Heck we even pack two days of meds for a one day trip just in case Sweet C drops them on the floor or feels the need for an extra day...
