My best day ever was at Beau Rivage in Biloxi. This was about 8 months before the hurricane, right after Christmas. I was playing DDB. First I hit 4 aces on $5 for $4000. I should have gone home. But I had not been there long so I kept on playing. I blew about $2800 of the $4000 plus my original bankroll and I said $200 more and I'm leaving (It goes fast on $5 machines). The second play after that I got 4 to the Royal in hearts. I have had a lot of Royals but never on $5. My heart was beating a mile a minute but I decided to play it Joe Cool because I knew the odds were good it would be nothing or a flush and I didn't want to make a fool out of myself in a crowded casino. I held the four cards and up popped the jack and I had my Royal and $20,000. I still played it cool, got my drivers license out and never said a word. They paid me with a check which was fine because I did not want to lose any of it. Needless to say, I played only a few more hands and left. The highest I have ever hit has always been $4000 max so it was a really big day for a country boy like me. But get this, after hitting $24000 in jackpots and keeping almost $20,000 of it, as I was walking out of the casino I put $10 in a machine near the entry hall and on the first play hit 2222A for another $800. Take it from me, it was hard to leave but I knew I had to!!! I have never had a day like that before or after.

Holy Ravioli if I could have one day like that I wouldn't know what to do with myself. What a day. Congratulations!

Man. My heart was a-beatin' just imagining that. Now that's some "walkin' money".

Did you pay off some bills, get a boat?

Great story.

my best day was about 4 years ago at the Reno Hilton,I was dealt the royal on five play dollars!!!!20,000 dollars the machine actually holds the cards for you when it deals it!

Best day was in Henderson, super times play dealt AAA2 on multipy of 5, I was playing quarters wish it had been dollers. Won $25000, biggest win of my whole life

I had four aces dealt to me on a $25 bonus poker machine on Fremont Street. Nice little $20K reward. Although Uncle got his cut.

  We were at the Beau Rivage two years ago, early December.  First night I sat down to a Multi-Strike, DDB .25 game.  Three hands in I hit the royal on the top line for $8,000. (I was ready to fly home that night.)   We were there for two more days and I never really hit again until, of course, the day we were leaving.  At the bar playing DDB .25 and the machine is dealing me quad aces, quad 5-k's, lots of full houses etc.  A gal was sitting next to me watching.  I gave up my machine to her and she told me the day before she hit aces 5 times on that machine.  I hope she hit the royal.     

was she one of the bar lizards?
