Ted,
PS. Since its been a long time since I posted can you give me some advice on posting smaller pictures. I can't remember what I used to do to reduce them.
I wouldn't suggest using the site he used. Leads to ads of scantily clad women when you click on the pictures. Honestly I wish his pics were a bit bigger, so I also can see them more clearly.
The site I have been using lately, imgur, has options to change the picture sizes when you first upload them.
Some nice hits there Ted! I would have much rather gone to Vegas than Tunica this weekend myself. Haha

Thanks Vman. I will also try reposting the pictures using the site you recommended, I don't feel totally comfortable with the site I used anyway and I only used them because someone else mentioned using them. I personally like the pictures bigger myself.
And thanks Bill and wildman. Yes, it was a very quick and very fun in and out of Sin City. Wildman this was the first trip in my last 5 trips that I didn't hit a royal but I'm definitely NOT complaining.
Good luck to all.

Ted,
Can you tell us exactly where in the casino these machines are located? What method you use in selecting the buttons, like in piano style or single finger? Your method in selecting the right machines to play as opposed to the "rigged" machines.

You need to invite DaBurglar on your next foray. Nice hits.
Thanks everyone; it was a fun, quick trip, hastily thrown together and sometimes those end up being the best.
Car - thanks and um, pass.
I'm not sure why Ted would need to invite ME on his next "foray", and as you can see, there's zero chance of such a thing ever happening. Still, congratulations are in order for such a successful trip... well done Ted.
Your hastily executed experience reminded of twenty years ago, in the late 1990s, living in L.A. and almost last minute, getting on a Friday night Southwest Airlines flight to Vegas for the weekend...back then you obviously didn't have the whole computerized marketing and internet dimensions to the whole experience you do today, and Vegas back then was tiny compared to today...still those short spontaneous trips were more interesting than the extended, planned "forays"...
Also, I only had to cope with a 55 minute flight from LAX to McCarran....Ted stated he arrived at 7:25pm (pst) Friday, so I am guessing he must have left whatever Midwest airport he flew out of at least by 5:30pm (CST), give or take, considering the time difference??? I remember 55 minutes...you'd no sooner take off and be getting your Southwest peanuts and "beverage" and it's time to land!!

Those machines are located at the crossroads of Good Karma Way and Positive Thinking Parkway.
When depressing the hold/discard buttons I use the "If I broke my 2 index fingers I wouldn't be able to type" method.
And finally; I have no method for selecting the right machines to play over "rigged" machines because I am in the majority of players who think there are no "rigged" machines.
You forgot to ask me how well I was tipping while out there but the answer would be - pretty well.

No need for me to ask. Being the stand up guy you appear to be online I know that you're a GIVER. That said, you treated all your attendees very well.
Congrats on the hits!!!!
