Congratulations. The early jackpot is the dream. My RFs were both in the first five minutes. Actually, all three. I had the one coin Borgata bummer way back.

Outstanding hits Ted, much appreciated for sharing your trip account.

Much respect for finally being able to get the pictures up. Even more respect for manning up and taking full responsibility for playing these highly volatile games and not ever whining about how much money is involved.

alpax I am in very rare air when I play at the dollar denomination, normally it is strictly quarters and halves for me. This session I brought some extra money with me mainly to get a jump on tier credits but once the hits started coming I decided to stay at the dollar level and dare chance. Pressing the button and seeing half a benjamin vaporize sometimes gets a bit nerve racking.

As you mentioned; TDB and ACJP are highly volatile games and may not be the right games for those who cannot take the swings but I prefer TDB over DDB. I dabble in ACJP when I want a break from TDB but if the hits are coming then I will stick with it. Thinking about it, I will stick with whatever game the hits are coming on.

Thanks again for your input, it is appreciated.

10 play AC Joker Poker. About 30 minutes in dealt a queen high
straight flush, a very nice hand pay. I
switched to TDB hoping to keep any momentum going;
about 20 minutes later with AWAK, very nice hand pay. I trudged on. Jumping between ACJP,
TDB, and Deuces Wild Bonus, I was never doing any
real harm to what I had won so far. I was back to ACJP and about 2 hours
after the AWAK, 5OAK for my 3rd hand pay. I switched to Deuces Wild Bonus and quad deuces, no ace, and stuck that 1k ticket into my pocket. Back on
ACJP I caught 3 hits worth $500.00 each within 10 minutes
and put those tickets into my pocket too.
At 3:28 am the slot attendant said that I had 32 minutes to hit another jackpot because her
shift was ending at 4:00 AM. At 3:58 AM I was dealt a wild royal while playing ACJP for my 4th
hand pay.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Amazing and a lot to process. Even harder for the hit and run quick day trip crowd. Lesson: do not leave feel compelled to leave a machine after a nice hit. The well may have dried on the game. But, simply switch to another game! Impossible at Harrah's because my only expertise is JOB and DW and the latter is not on their dollar carousel. But I can definitely keep squeezing the orange at Caesars to extract even more juice from it. Triple digit hits don't mean it's time to walk away. Stay another ten hands and if you hold your own, just keep going. A triple digit hit can simply be a hint of what will come.

alpax yesterday mid-morning I ran over to Harrah's Joliet as they were having a gas card give away. My intention was to just pick up the gas card and leave but seeing that I got there 20 minutes early I decided to play $300.00. I sat at one of my familiar machines and after the meter dropped to the $250.00 range playing ACJP I caught 5 jacks for 1k. I cashed out at $1,200.00 and then stood in line for 5 minutes to pick up the gas card.

It REALLY was a super day all around.
