Story here:
We didn't have much of a gambling budget....we kinda just wanted to get out of the house for a little bit.
I had some FSP on my card at M-resort, and LF did too.
I started with winning 80 bucks on my FSP after quad fives and quad nines on a 25 cent BP machine, and LF lost hers. I gave her 20 and I played 20, we both played on a 4-card keno machine (quarters) and we both lost.
40 bucks left, and I was NOT about to hit the ATM machine...I told her that we HAD to win with these last 40 bucks!
She played single line keno, and I played extra draw keno. Well she went broke pretty quick, and I made 40 out of my 20 bucks.
I cashed out and went to the change machine to get my 40 bucks, so I could give her another 20.
I made a stop over at the bathroom to take a leak, and while I was there...I kept thinking...what the hell should I play now? More keno? more Poker?
Not sure what came over me, but I came up with quarter DDB as my decision...a game that I do not normally play when on a fixed or limited budget.
I gave her a 20 and I put my 20 into the machine and flipped over to the DDB game.
The VERY FIRST HAND OUT.....was A-J of spades which converted to a ROYAL FLUSH!!
It truly scared the pee out of me....the machine was kinda loud, and it was set to the fastest speed, which I never play ...I am usually low to mid-speed.
When I held those two cards, and hit deal/draw, and the 3 cards showed up really quick, and the machine started counting up 4000 credits really fast, I didn't know what to think!
All I said was HELL YEA!!!
I played off the remainder of that $20 and cashed out $1000 bucks even!
What a night!!
