Small bank roll, low roller. About 10 or ago years ago. Down about $800 for the trip going into the last day getting my ACE kicked pretty much the whole time and was running cold. Going to bed that night I was sick of losing, and didnt plan on gambling much the next day because my luck had been running so crappy.
Had a real good night of sleep and felt great when I woke up. My dad wanted to go and get breakfast, so we went down stairs to the Orleans buffet, he forgot something in the room so he went back to get it, and I decided to pop a $20 into the triple play progressive bank quarter machines while waiting for him, right off the bat get dealt a full house, so its a full house times 3, play for about 5 minutes longer and hit four 3's, cash out for $300 and then go have breakfast. We decide to go to the Sahara and every machine I touched was paying off, mostly video poker and the nickel reel em in cast for cash machines they used to have were HOT. Every $20 I put in that day came out with a least $100 dollar payout. Unfortunately had an mid afternoon flight back and that ended the streak, ended up about $600 dollars up for the entire trip, including airfare, meals, everything.
Greatest half a day in Vegas I ever had.
