Just got back from our 3 night 4 day casino trip to our home casino. Our once a year casino vacation. Years past we would go around the state and hit other casinos. Since we don't get back to them after 6 months time, they drop us out of the comps. Since we have so much comps built up at our home casino we just did this little trip. Photos from our belcony room below. We got there at 11am Sunday and the wife played till 7am monday morning! She nuts! lol After 4 days she was down $200 I was up $1000. On the way home I gave her $200 so she was even. We laughed our tails off on our 45 min drive home. We stayed 3 nights comped, eat for free on comps, drank for free on my winnings, and played for free! The only cost was $10 in gas for the drive. Much cheaper then air fare! You can't say you had a free vacation very often!

What a great trip and pics. Like you said, those free vacations are few and far between, but nice when they happen.

Great report and nice pictures wildman. Too bad the casino wasn't having a gas card give away that day. I guess you had to share some if the trip expense.

Nice hits! But you just can't seem to stay away from that double bonus game can you? Is that the only game that machine offers?

Nice hit on the "4 to a Royal"
Just curious, do you sit and visualize the prospect of the 5th card coming up before hitting the redraw or do you hit the redraw immediately?

Vman, them nickels only have 4 games, I play 9/6 job 80% of the time when it gets cold on me I play 2-3 hands on db,ddb and dw and pull a hit like that one some times. The pay tables on them are low so just trying to hit a flyer hand. Then move machines.

I see 4 to the royal so often its like another hand to me. Since the hit I have seen 4 to the royal 5 times already.
